The healtalicious site is good.
Browsing the vegan alternative for B12 though, I found that they suggest the use of fortified products, that is, vegan products where B12 has been artificially added.

I wonder if this is the right concept. Unless of course there are specific reasons to practice a vegan diet, I believe it's better to eat the natural B12 found in yogurt or fresh dairy products, for example.

Also, I wonder how China, and South east Asia are so overpopulated when the staple diet is vegan (soy beans and rice). Most probably the FDA daily ratio is overestimated (or they apply a substantial safety factor).
