Hi, Welcome to health care magic.I understand your concern. Red meat is very good source of vitamins ( including B12), minerals - that is why your friend gets well after eating it. In case he is not able to eat red meat daily 3 times... he can take injection of B1-B6-B12 twice aweek 5 injections / Inj. Vitamin D every 10 days for 4 injections. Followed by oral Vitamin B12 pill/ multi vitamin,multi mineral capsules daily.& Injection Vitamin D monthly . Eat nutritive diet/ cultivate habit of walking/go for relaxation techniques, meditation daily for positive psychology. Thanks
