Interesting but of course its important to keep it in perspective. How many thousands of hospital visits and stays are caused through pharmacological drugs? Many more i imagine.

There are every sort of supplement being sold on the internet. It's important to check for the certifications on the producers' websites.
Some supplements are actually thoroughly tested, while others are all just nice label and zero credibility.

The USP website shows that they have not certified a single algae based DHA EPA supplement and Dr Greger takes a DHA EPA supplement for brain health. BRAGG now sells the stuff so I am going to take a chance with them.

When i was 6 years vegan and was scared by dr greger about needing b12 i went through an early mid life crisis because i am so anti supplements and such a level 10 naturalist, it was listening to my instincts and ignoring humanity and getting back to a more self sustained natural way of life that made me go vegan, hardest thing i ever went through, i had a crisis team come to my house cause i wouldnt even get out of bed and they diagnosed me with major depressive disorder, till this day i hate that i need a supplement to follow my heart but i know of atleast 1 10 year fruitarian who doesnt take b12 that doesnt have too high mma levels from lack of b12 so i try to put my hope into the fact we may not all need it but i take it anyway just incase, i remember how uncomfortable i felt thinking that every vegan was at risk of b12 supplements being tampered with also, or how we now are tied into the system because we need it for pills vecaue we cant manage it ourselves, ugh such a sucky oart if life, one of the worst

Vegans (like me) need B12 - but that’s it.

🙄 Unfortunately, people permits the FDA and government to sells these supplements and food. 🙄

These laws and deregulation are for profit 💵 not the American citizen's health. 🙄

We can modify the above by uniting. Otherwise, they will continue to permit these unhealthy policies, laws and deregulation for the Billionaire friends. 🙄

👍 Whole food plant based for the environment and health; vegan for the victims!
