[QUOTE="kds1980, post: 62442, member: 1178"] [url=http://epaper.hindustantimes.com/Default.aspx]HindustanTimes ePaper[/url] IF YOU are vegetarian and under 40 years of age, make sure you get the right intake of B-vitamins, especially vitamin 812 - or else you could be at the risk of suffering a stroke. Ongoing research at the Bangalore-based National lnstitute of Mental Health and Neurosciences (NIMHANS) has linked vitamin B deficiencies commonly seen in vegetarians, as well as genetic defects that cause levels of a chemical called homocysteine to increase in the body - to the alarming incidence of strokes in young Indians.
