B12 deficiency is most common in individuals with conditions like pernicious anemia, certain gastrointestinal disorders (such as Crohn’s disease or celiac disease), or those who have had gastric surgery. Vegetarians and vegans who may not get enough B12 from their diet, are at high risk of developing a B12 deficiency and could benefit from injections to prevent a deficiency.
