How can a vegan get enough vitamin B12?

Vitamin B12 once occurred naturally on the surfaces of potatoes, beets, and other root vegetables, but the move away from natural fertilizers has caused it to disappear from our soil. Nutritionists recommend that vegans take a commercially available multivitamin or vitamin B12 supplement or eat foods that are fortified with this essential vitamin, such as many breakfast cereals, fortified orange juice and soy milk, and nutritional yeast. The Vegetarian Site offers a variety of B12 supplements in either lozenge or tablet form that make it easy and affordable to get the proper nutrients!
