Maaaan. Thanks a lot for the job you've been doing.😀
My name is Anna. I am from Ukraine.
English is not my first language but i am learning it and really love to take information from english source.

I am in a way of my body and nutrition exploring. Because I decided to change my diet to Vegan this year. I've been really confused after I made a blood analysis some month ago.Due to a lot of different information and recommendation that I took about deficiency and anemia that i have now.
I've found your channel today, and after watching this video I understand more about B12 absorption than after reading a lot of other articles.
Really love how compact and easily-understood information that you are giving is.
FOllOW!!!! And appreciate a lot. KEEP going.
I will continue learning with your videos.🌱

When there is no intrinsic factor, the ileum could not absorb B12, but why? It seems the intrinsic factor was cleft before absorption, right?

[ninamartinez]

Can vitamin B12 help to give me energy ? What is the best brand that you recommend ? Is it safe to take over the counter without talking to a doctor ?

[vegahimsa]

Myth: "animal protein is best". Absolutely false. Fact: Supplementation is best... For all of the complex reasons given in this video. Supplemental B12 is not bound to protein and thus has the highest absorption rate by Intrinsic Factor (about 50%). Oral B12 supplementation has a much higher rate of passive diffusion (over 1%, because of dose and because it's not bound to protein).

[mreudeco]

When b12 is high homocysteine should be low? In my blood test both are high? What could be the reason?

[almightyjr]

Great explanation I been diagnosed with RA. I working on a strict diet that helps my symptom. Currently I only eat fish and a couple eggs a week. I would like to see other sources of natural b12. Any suggestions?

[xDomglmao]

What does amylase have to do with protein degr.?

[joecool]

Not 40 years of b12 storage more like 5-7 years of b12

[HostaMahogey]

What about b12 taken in supplements under the tongue?
