According to a 2023 study in the journal *Nutrition Research*, higher dietary intake of vitamin B12 was significantly associated with a lower prevalence of hypertension. This evidence directly challenges the idea that too much B12 can cause low blood pressure, suggesting that the relationship is actually the reverse: adequate B12 is protective against high blood pressure. The notion that excess B12 might lead to hypotension is a common misconception, often stemming from misunderstandings about vitamin metabolism and deficiency symptoms.
