Abstract

This narrative mini-review article aimed to investigate the potential association of vitamin B12 levels with diabetic neuropathy (DN) and diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs). It was demonstrated that B12 deficiency seems to be related to DFUs in cases of metformin administration and bariatric surgery. B12 supplementation with dietary measures and agents may improve DN and quality of life (QoL). However, data are still preliminary and more experience is needed.
