That is because the B12 in the food can't be absorbed by someone who malabsorbs. If they malabsorb only because of too little stomach acid, B12 in fortified foods can get through. But if they lack intrinsic factor, they need a much larger dose for any to get through.

Have you considered citing the source of the text on your site?
