Some more than others.

Going really high is not necessary unless some people have the rare transcobalamin problem. When this is low, transport of B12 is less efficient and it is thought then to keep the blood level higher, to make up for that loss. But the days are early for transcobalamin decisions, so I can't say with certainty yet, since everyone IS different genetically. Tests for transcobalamin are just beginning to be offered.
How long does B12 stay in ones system? If one stopped taking B12, how long before their levels would start depleting and is there a rate of depletion or is that dependent on the person?
