I have been taking the b12 complex sublingual for a while now! At first I was just taking it for a vitamin supplement because where I work at it is hard to good healthy food’s that’s ready to eat! Mostly fast foods around, and the healthy food’s are expensive.
Osmosis is now copying this video so sad to see. Hit report!!
Great way to learn I am a Nurse but am having B12 injections,yes to sore tongue horrible fatigue etc��
Bro I only came for the symptoms and I’m getting whole biochemistry lesson lol
Sir please change language this video in Hindi I don’t understand English sir
Animal products are fortified with B12. Its a microbe found in untreated water.
You mentioned SAM e…should we be taking that along with vitamin b?
Clear as mud, if only I didn’t have B12 deficiency I’d be able to understand that.
What is Erectodom Secrets? Does it work? I hear many individuals solve their erectile dysfunction problem with this popular erectile dysfunction treatment.
Dude! What about us vegetarians? And, us “old” vegetarians? We sort of have the deck stacked against us, don’t we? Thanks for the video and best of luck!
AFAIK, being celiac (issues caused by gluten/wheat), can cause issues with absorbtion, plus Proton Pump Inhibitors (used to treat excess acid).
This is just superb, been searching for “how to get more energy at work” for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of Qenason Energy Endorser (do a search on google )? Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my colleague got amazing success with it.
What a great video from which I’ve learned a lot. But please tell me which form of B-12 intramuscular supplementation is the best: Methyl-, Hydroxior -Cyano-?
Subscribed!
Why folate should not be given in b12 defciency kindly explain
Having very dangerous form of dizziness and walking imbalance and breathlessness ��
Medicosis when is the best time to take B12 and can it be taken with B1 and B6 and Magnesium together?
The numbness in my hands is caused by the market drop, go vegan tell the Dr no meds needed; I’m putting a vegan sell order against big pharmaceutical
Great, I just found a bottle around from my dad. I swallowed some and now I’m spinning like a gravitron. Yaa, if it just was that easy…
Isnt Chromium Piccolinate more effective in transforming carbohydrites into engery than b12?
what is the normal range for b12. i am at 174 pg/ml. having lot of symptoms. am i deficient?
I got some lad work it’s showing my b12 is 377 and in the ranges says ppl with 400 less experienced symptoms. I been loosing hair my hand and feet get numb and cold, I have Poor circulation what should I do
For seven years I was experiencing off and on, hands and feet tingling, burning, pain, difficulty walking, extreme fatigue and depression. Countless visits to the ER and Dr. Office,checking for everything but B12. It then started where I had extreme difficulty getting dressed, had trouble feeding myself, could not write or hold a pen. Bending my neck sent electric shocks thru my body. Went to the hospital for MS testing. MRI, spinal tap, brain scan. After more testing, one Dr. checked my B12 level, it was 80. I spent 10 days in the hospital and 10 days in rehab. They were not sure if I would recover. Left untreated, B12 deficiency can cause permanent brain damage. I was lucky, everything reversed. Maybe if B12 METHYLCOBALAMIN were given early on, we might be able to help prevent MS and other brain and nerve related diseases.
If that one Dr. didn’t check my B12 level,I would have been misdiagnosed with MS, because the symptoms are the same.
B12 is vital for our health. It helps make DNA & RNA, your red blood cells.
Helps with Depression,Dementia,Sleep Disorders.
Helps with sleep-wake rhythm disorders (Circadian)
Protects &a rebuilds the Myelin sheath covering your nerve fibers.
Slows brain shrinkage up to 80%.
Lowers Homocysteine levels associated with heart disease.
If low levels are left unchecked, brain damage will occur and can become permanent.
Helps with age related macular degeneration.
By supplementing with sublingual Methylcobalmin B12 around 40 or 50 years of age, we could help prevent problems before they start.
Everyone should supplement and maintain blood levels of B12 in the range from 600 to 2000 pg/ml in order to avoid and, if this is the case, help recover from the wide range of problems that result from B12 deficiency or insufficiency. Health care practitioners: this is the first thing you should check for every patient that comes in, independently of their age or condition
Methylcobalamin: This is the neurologically active form of B12. It is technically a `coenzyme` of vitamin B12 and it is almost never prescribed by doctors despite being effective, readily available and inexpensive. It is also available in an injectable form. Degenerative neurological conditions are where methylcobalamin shows its greatest benefits over other cobalamin preparations. Brilliant news for MS’ers! Not only has Methylcobalamin been shown to work in neurologic diseases, it also helps with the elimination of toxic substances in the body.
I had severe anemia before I started taking Vitamin B12. Massive doses of iron weren’t fixing me and the doctors wanted to put me on medication to make my bone marrow create more red blood cells. Nope! I started on Vitamin B12 and my anemia is gone!
Why are animal sources the best? Arent the animals just supplemented?
Mostly great information but once loading injections injections stop symptoms may returns. Best to see how your doing as may need for a lifetime at regular amount depending on how severe symptoms are and how quickly they return.
Not all damage is iIrreversible and so treatment should be aggressive and long-term shots
some are lucky enough to switch to all or sublingual.
Don’t base your diagnosis purely on B12 serum look at homocystine and MMA as a certain level is not a gold standard and is set too low and range should probably be around 500-2000 for better health.
i testetd and i have b12 deficiency. if sombody has similar symptoms then let me know. i started with ibs C and i try to fic that with diet by eating fiber and less meat and mostlynplant abased. then i have insomnia once or twice in 8 months.then i had serious insomnia and sleep apnea. i went to doctor and tested i had b12 deficiency. if any bos has similar story then let me know.
Fun fact: it’s actually quite rare for a vegan to be B12 deficient these days. Plant-based milks and vegan products are now fortified with both B12 and folate
I had my vitamin B12 levels checked so I’m waiting on results. I told my doctor I sometimes feel pinches all over my body and she said it’s my nerves could be due to low B12.
I currently have B12 deficiency… my symptoms are: weakness, dizziness, numbness and tingling all over my body including the face constantly which is kind of scary thinking “wth is going on, a stroke??!! ” Fortunately, I got blood tests done and I have B12 and Folic Acid(B9) deficiency which causes Anemia with all the symptoms I described above.
The reason I am writting this is for your information:
I used to have GERD problems for a while (Gastroesophageal reflux disease), I used to take over the counter pills for the heartburn and then switched to Omeprazole which healed me, I also started a much “healthier diet” reducing meat, going more veggies and whole wheat grains, great! but………the stomach pills are the reason I have B12 deficiency because these kind of pills don’t let B12 get absorbed into your body after you eat, also I started my “healthy diet” at the worse timing, because by reducing meat, combined with the pills, I also reduced my B12 intake even more. My blood tests showed 155pg/mL of B12 which is very very low.
So watch out those who have GERD and take pills, increase your B12 intake before it’s too late it really sucks having all these numbness problems each and every day, they do take you down physically and psychologicaly
I am glad I figured all this out, and I hope I get better soon.

***This is an UPDATE after 7 months I made this comment… I was on B12 for 5 months straight daily, and now I am up to once every 1 or 2 weeks just to maintain the good B12 levels. I feel healthy and great, and even my mood went up! Thank you all for your support!
–
And I also want to say something, don’t take my comment above for granted.. always go to the doctor and get some tests done. I am not a doctor. I only trying to share my experience with you, maybe it will help some of you. Always get a doctor’s opinion about B12 and GERD and ask questions. B12 deficiency is very serious it wasn’t easy for me.. but fortunately I feel great now. Thank you all!
B12 is from a bacteria that forms on plants but due to chemicals we can’t get it from plants, we get it from animal products from the food they eat but in the modern day even what they eat is chemical filled and kills the bacteria that has b12
I really like your content and way of teaching! Whenever I have difficulty in learning I watch ur videos and it makes it so easy..
I have some questions To which protein is cobalamin bound in the liver? Is it still transcobalamin? Is it correct that amylase cleaves cobalamin and „animal protein“ as it actually serves as an enyzme for carbonhydrate metabolism? Thanks a lot!
Hi Osmosis, explain this one (if you can)…. Microcytic Megaloblastic Anemia……. Deficient in B12, B6, Folate and Iron…. (yes l said Microcytic MCV 75 with Megaloblastic Cells, MCV has been as low as 60 in the past)
Glucose doesn’t get used for energy with b12. It’s getting absorbed into your muscles so you reduce muscle cramps.
Hi, would you help me clarify if this anemia is or not hyperchromatic? In italian wikipedia page it says: “it used to be called hyperchromatic anemia” and one of my professors wants to hear “hyperchromatic” during the exam but i’m not sure:/
liver stores b12 for years. you are a shill
b12 is a bacteria poop.
Not true. Humans store B12. Another meat eater with fake news
Thank you so much for this sir. You have no idea how helpful this is to me right now.
Bullshit, The body stores B12 in the liver and it lasts for years. So, when you have B12 deficit you notice it a long time after your body has stopped absorbing it well. What a bullshit video. If you take too much you get a lot of undesirable side effects.
Thanks a lot!! Found a lot of other videos and books but none explained the topic in such a straightforward and concise manner.
I found out my levels are at 60 today and I’m 32 weeks pregnant. I’m getting shot tomorrow. Is it very dangerous
I’M A VEGAN CAUSE ANIMAL PROTIEN WAS MAKIN’ ME SICK. SO THEREFORE ANIMAL PROTIEN IS VERY BAD FOR U! PLANT PROTIEN IS BETTER FOR U!��������
Vitamin B12 is conspiracy by the meat industry.
I don’t believe in this vitamin B12 at all.
Why this vitamin B12 available only in animal products?
Total lie
energy booster? only if you have B12 deficiency and anemia.
I took a zipfizz when I started playing beach volleyball and finally after 3 months on keto I notice my energy come back. I was getting run down every time I played. So what was different??? I looked at the nutrition label I saw that it had a huge amount of vitamin B12. So now that I saw this video I will try B12 to see if my energy for my workouts come back. If u could make a video for high intensity training on keto (beach volleyball, basketball, triathlon training) that would be great. Love your channel.
I’ve been a vegan from 16 to 18 (2,5yrs) i allways took b12 supplements. But even now, more than a year later i star again to eat animal products i feel brainfog. May I have permanent brain damage?
Thank you Jesus and thank you Thomas
This helpful ��
God bless you
How does the microwave kill vitamin B12? Is it not overcooking or heating food that results in less nutritional food?
What if someone has a MTHFR mutation and can’t utilize the standard form of B12? Is it true that only methyl b12 is effective?
what is normal level? i am at 174 pg/ml. having all the worst symptoms.
I watch all ad on your vedio,,
i didn’t watch it because I am busy but feel that content is perfect,,
Thanks for the video. I’m trying to move away from “energy drinks”. Going to look into B12 drops
I had an energy drink with B12 in it and it increased my mind’s clarity. I was looking into a possible deficiency.
i can’t walk till now properly, i used vitamin tablets,injections of B12 vitamin for 5 days but after 5 days i still can’t walk properly.plz help me
Be aware of your bottle of tube won’t touch your lips or mouth!����
U r my angel always there to safe me thanks alot MF☺☺☺☺☺����������
Dave Asprey recommends to take up to 5000 micrograms a day, do you agree? Also he says you should take folat (5-mthf quatrofolic) with your longterm b12 supplementation otherwise it can cause braindamage, do you agree?
Anyone know if this could happen a week after one night of very heavy drinking?
Methylcobalamin.? Adenosylcobalamin? Cyanocobalamin? Hydroxocobalamin.? I like your videos, I’ve learned to trust what you say. Can you tell me which you recommend on the keto diet, and how much. Kind of thinking Cyanocobalamin 2500 mg once a week. Thank you
Sorry, but B12 is stored in the liver, just because it is that important to our body. This storage can last for several years (5 to 20 years depending on the person) and that’s why some people only know they are low on B12 when there is very few left and begins to produce it’s nasty effects like anemia or worse. Vegetables have ZERO B12. Only animal products like dairy, liver, beef, egg yolks, and some other animal foods like clams, shellfish, sardines have it.
Vegan alcoholics beware…LOL. Excellent lecture. Shall carnivores take a B complex if their digestion is impaired?
The voice over sounds extremely young. No offence but as an old creaky I prefer a mature voice over. Preferably male because the tone is better for my partial hearing loss.
liverwurst, beef liver and eggs all have an abundance of B12, A and B6 (it is a good thing I like Liver, I like Liverwurst and I eat about 6 eggs a day)
B12 comes from soil or dirt which is then transfered to plants which is then transfered to animals.
Animals are just a middleman
As someone with Autism and Bipolar, caffeine is a no-go. But I am a Programmer, and late-nights are a must.:) B Vitamins are a Godsend.:D

What MG is best recommended for B12?? i seen it go up to 5,000

I have been struggling with being lethargic and fatigue, I work out at least 4-5 days a week, my diet isn’t horrible and my blood test were terrific! I believe I’m yet lacking B12, I took my first quick dissolve tablet today and honestly I immediately felt the difference, I will experiment for 30 days, I think I found my solution thank you for such a good informative video

I told my mom that I woke up dizziness and couldnt see light then my heart was raising she said I need vitamin b
Fabulous video, thank you so much for this informative, concise presentation. Your expert knowledge is very much appreciated! ��
Hello, where can I buy Adenosycobalamin shots ( injectable )? Thank you
So, much appalling misinformation in the video.
1. You don’t lose B12 every time you pee. You only lose the excess B12 you consume.
2. Contrary to “the bodies don’t store it at all”, we actually store 3-5 years’ worth of vitamin B12 in the liver.
3. If you choose B12 shots, you need them monthly, not weekly.
4. If using sublingual or oral route, you don’t need it daily, weekly is enough.
Many, many others… e.g. Hydrochloric acid doesn’t break the “protein-peptide bond” (whatever that is), the protease breaks down proteins to peptides.
All the vegetarian foods he’s showing as part of the video have precisely zero (0) molecules of B12.
Bottom line, this person knows little to nothing about B12 (and by extension, all of nutrition in general) and is just reading off a script made after shoddy googling.
Man sperm is rich in B12. That’s how I get my vegan wife to have oral sex.
First u should get vitamin b 12 such a lousey voice u should like someone forced u to work for this when ur suffering from high fever
Don’t listen to him. Most of his facts are not facts at all.
I am low on vitamin b12 and i just got told it was my diet but I eat loads of meat, eggs and dairy products and was told to eat more leafy vegetables… I am constantly tired, I have cold feet and hands (but this can tie into when I had cancer and neuropathy), is my doctor correct in her diagnoses… is it my diet?
R protein is basically protecting Cobalamin from Gastric acid and acidic medium but there is no gastric acid in duodenum. So why is there biliary secretion of R protein into small intestine?
Hey guys, you can buy a bottle of B12 Over the counter and some insulin needles. Do your own sub q injections at home daily, or weekly, whatever you like. Easily injected into your quad muscle, you won’t feel a thing.
SERIOUSLY HOW DO THEY KNOW ALL THIS YET CAN’T FIGURE OUT DIABETES…
Most people vegan Vegetarian or not do not ingest B12 at all unless its fortitfied in the food its self why do you treat B12 as a Plantbased diet problem? If you dont wash your fruits and vegetables in nature (No GMO’s and no pesticides ) you’ll get B12 or if you eat animal large intestines…. And you dont need that much of it.
B12 is produced by a Bacteria in the soil, then the animals eat the grass/plants with little amounts of soil/ dirt on it, and that is the way that the animals get it.
Then we Murder the animals and eat them, and obtain small amounts of B12 from the dead flesh, but many people have poor functioning of “intrinsic factor” and therefore they do not absorb enough B12 into the body, even if they eat plenty of Meat �� ��.
In the old days, where people drank directly from streams and ate unwashed vegetables and fruit, they got plenty of B12.
But today everything is washed and sterilised, because of fear of Bacteria ��
But not all bacteria is dangerous, some are very important for our health.
According to some studies, 65 percent of American people have to low B12.
It is not a coincidence, that almost all farm animals today, are given either injections of B12, or it is given as supplements trough their food.
Lol the thumbnail reminds me of that movie A Cure For Wellness
So, since animals dont make B12, why is there B12 in animal products?
what’s the underlying path of glossitis and lemon yellow skin?
i have thalassemia so keeping any vitamin is a struggle for me
I would take a super B complex and I seen no difference. my doctor told me the acid in my stomach killed it before my body could absorb it. I was upset and I have low iron making me feel fatigued all the time.
I have taken b12 vitamins in the past and they make me feel so sleepy and lethargic. I don’t know why they affect me that way. I do have a history of anemia and the doctor says I have small red blood cells so I take iron supplements daily. I always assumed that maybe my body chemistry except the B12 supplement.. Have you ever heard of a case like this?
Did you know that we must repent of our sins? Also, do you understand what sin is scripturally? Sin is transgression of the Law, 1John 3:4.
We must also believe on The Master YAHUSHA and receive the covering and witness of YAHUSHA. We must also trust and obey YAHUSHA.
What is the law? The law is the first five books of the bible.
Yes, faith saves you. But did you know that TRUE faith will produce obedience? If we have genuine faith, we will obey YAHUAH’S law (TURAH) and we will repent (which means to turn away from our sins and stop sinning willfully.) If we ignorantly stumble into sin (remember that sin is the transgression/breaking of His laws) and trust in the Master YAHUSHA, He will forgive us. Favour is what allows us to be the men and women that YAHUAH the Father in Heaven called us to be. It allows us to obey through His Set-Apart (Holy) Ruach (Spirit). ��

b12 is made from bacteria….however the world is more sterile now. We used to get our b12 from pond water (water is now treated) and we triple wash our produce (soil )…so it affects the general population (meat eaters and vegans). Animals are supplemented with b12 so why not get it directly and cut the middleman
that was great! waaaay more than I anticipated from YouTube but I learned a lot. thank you.
We know,what lovely doctor…
We want u to do CVS videos…what do u think
ALSO PLANT BASE DIET IS ALSO KEEPIN’ ME CANCER FREE! BEIN’ A VEGAN IS A BLESSIN’!����✝️��️��������������������������
Excellent video thank you. Ive had tingling in my hands and arms for two years now and heart palpitations and extreme fatigue and its from having low b12 as im vegan and have been so for 4 years. My doctor has only just figured out that this is the cause of all of it. Im so happy to have an answer as this has been playing havoc with my life
“Thats the end of the story… morning glory” wtf dude ����
I have just subscribe to your channel it’s the most calming an very informative video i have listen to. This is excellent work here once again i really give compliments so you can be very proud of yourself.
What I only know is that whenever I got back pain or fatigue I consume vitamin B supplements (a.k.a neurobion).
If you have b12 deficiency are you going to have all of the symptoms?
I only have fatigue, shortness of breath, hair loss,hand/legs tingling sometimes heart beat fast
With that intonation and jokes i cant help but laughing hahahaha
Will it get absorbed in tongue or i need swallow it after 30 secs?? Can i spit it out after 30 secs under the tongue? Bcos it has some alcohol which irritates my gastritis. Someone pls reply. I need to take b12 coz am deficient..
How about the active forms vs the non active forms of B12. Can you talk about this process?
Very good lecture, but i would add one VERY important thing missed.
B12 is also bound to Salivary R-Binders…You need pancreatic enzymes (Trypsin) to dissociate the R-binders and thus give B12 a chance to bind to Intrinsic Factor.
Good lecture! very well done
Which writer book of medicine do you prefer for making the video’s?
There is no need to take any nutritional supplement, or eat animal proteins. Intestinal microbes produce all B vitamins, including B 12! Metagenomic analysis has predicted that Bacteroides fragilis and Prevotella copri (Bacteroidetes); Clostridium difficile, Faecalibacterium prausnitzii and Ruminococcus lactaris (Firmicutes); Bifidobacterium animalis, B.infantis, and B.longum (Actinobacteria); Fusobacterium varium (Fusobacteria) possess a vitamin B12 biosynthesis pathway. Indeed, Lactobacillus plantarum and L. coryniformis isolated from fermented food produce vitamin B12, and Bifidobacterium animalis synthesizes vitamin B12 during milk fermentation. Thanks for your watching!
I take b12 because my arm and hip are paining..now im �� the pain was gone..
Thank you! these videos are great. very easy to understand. keep them coming please.
I think giving only folate in case of B12 can actually cause some permanent neurological damage
my god…. Every commercial is from headspace… and its making me lose my mind…
“Imagine an alcoholic strict vegan with pernicious anemia, he has left the hospital for terminal ileum resection because of Crohn’s diseases. He’s now going to eat some sushi to get fish tape worm because he cannot have terminal ileum diseases if he doesn’t have a terminal ileum”

Do natural popular erectile dysfunction natural treatment like Erectodom Secrets really work and if so, how effective are they? We’ve noticed numerous awesome things about this popular erectile dysfunction natural treatment.
Hello �� thank you very very much for your efforts ����
But i have two questions one is amylase for carbs digestion? But u said it help to dissociate B12 from protein? Is this mean amylase has two functions???
The other question is normal flora in our intestine also synthesized B12 true!? If the person is strict vegan B12 not become zero?? And don’t reach to severe state??
Can you clarify this to me??
And again thank you ��
Thanks for your brief videos. What is the solution. Please I need reply if uiu have time or is it in your previous video.
So in the past when I’ve boughten b-complex vitamins i’m convinced that I gain weight (at least water) from them… b12 alone doesn’t do this to me so just curious if this is possible? They definitely give me energy so can’t tell if the weight gain from them is paranoia or what
Can pernicious anemia be related or correlated with neuropathy?
Is this supposed to be a freaking seminar or what? Get to the point!!!
Thank you for sharing a very useful video recently i have visited Likhitha diagnostics in Hyderabad they provide best services for the patients with special packages for more details look at https://www.likhithadiagnostic.com/

Respected Sir, Is there any way to contact you? MailId or something else. I want to talk to you over B12. Something serious according to me
I drank for 10 days hardcore vodka, and now when I stopped I got blisters on my upper lip. Is this a symptom? Im a bad alcoholic
Should be mentioned that cyanocobalamin is a very bad supplement type due to VERY low bioavailability and high doses have shown to be damaging in studies.
There is no need to take any nutritional supplement, or eat animal proteins. Intestinal microbes produce all B vitamins, including B 12! Metagenomic analysis has predicted that Bacteroides fragilis and Prevotella copri (Bacteroidetes); Clostridium difficile, Faecalibacterium prausnitzii and Ruminococcus lactaris (Firmicutes); Bifidobacterium animalis, B.infantis, and B.longum (Actinobacteria); Fusobacterium varium (Fusobacteria) possess a vitamin B12 biosynthesis pathway. Indeed, Lactobacillus plantarum and L. coryniformis isolated from fermented food produce vitamin B12, and Bifidobacterium animalis synthesizes vitamin B12 during milk fermentation. Thanks for your watching!
“Today we’re talking about B-12, also known as cobaLAMin.” Haha. It’s coBALamin.:)
Heres one for you to analyse and explain (if there is an explanation for it lol)…. Microcytic Megaloblastic Anemia….. Deficient in B6, B12, Iron and Folate.
Best bit is when he said the strict vegan alcoholic ate sushi.
My B12 deficiencies have always manifested as psychosis. Can you explain why this is a problem for me?
Hey! Id like to remind you all that you DO NOT NEED to consume animals to get b12.
B12 is only naturally found in soil. Because we live in a hygienic society, and cattle is mostly fed non organic food (that does not contain b12) it is actually injected into cows so that we then consume it! So maybe try to investigate where that b12 in your beef is coming from.
SO, getting b12 form supplements is about as natural as getting it from supermarket meat.
(this goes out to any potential vegan that is scared that they’ll get sick)
I had no idea what you said but I tried to agree with it������������
Fish tape worm!!!!! Yikes, and I love sushi. However, I’m still having a blast learning stuff I may never need to know. I try not to mention any of this in social settings as it tends to annoy some people. And I don’t as a rule mention parasites.
Sir what are the normal levels for Vitamin B12? below than 200 ng/ml B12 level, is it considered normal or low?
I enjoyed this I have a B12 deficiency,..will check out the, macrocytic
Is extremely low energy irrationality and headaches symptoms
why is it reasonable to test the serum folic acid concentration in a patient who is suspected of having it b 12 deficiency
This is another good video to make basic concepts about megaloblastic anaemia. Though I prefer listening to the other “iconic voice” of osmosis. Great job team!
Great video, it would help a lot if you speak louder or increase the volume somehow, also there’s a lot of oportunity for you to make the video simpler and easier to understand. Lots of love, thanks for the vid.
What about retic count in vitamin b12 deficiency?? Reduced due to ineffective erythropoesis??
Hey my Vitamin b12 level was a 283 and i live in the US. Is that low? Also my Vitamin D level is a 13 ng/ml
thanks for much for all of this information! This video was very helpful!
everything i need to know in one vid! greatly put together, thanks!
This video is inaccurate stating that B12 can be found in animal and dairy products…its from the soil/water
Why is megaloblastic anemia actually an anemia? How does it cause a decrease in oxygen supply to tissues?
The narrator is lacking in something? We can hardly hear her!
how about other b vitamin (B1,B6,B9,B5) gets absorbed in body similar to B12? If someone has B12 deficiency will there be problems with other B vitamins as well?
I bought a timed B12 supplement but I’m not sure when I should take it! any advice?
Thanks so much for this incredible explanation with drawings! I really enjoyed it.

Does taking B complex tablet is just as effective as the liquid?
every one says b12 deficient, but no one says at what levels they had symptoms. mine was174
I am a vegan who is making sure I get enough B12; but my meat-eating grandfather supposedly died of pernicious anemia. Is it possible to die from pernicious anemia? Or is it really death from complications of pernicious anemia?
If alcohol prevents folate absorption and folate deficiency is a cause of macrocytic anemia then alcoholism can cause both megaloblastic (folate def) and non-megaloblastic (chronic alcoholism)?
Fārmingham offspring study?
It’s Framingham.
Done by the Journal of clinical nutrition? Journals don’t do studies, they review and publish them.
Haha. A dead give away that the man doesn’t know what he’s talking about.
what if you are an overweight teenager and you took about 10 capsules of 1000mcg B¹² for ‘metabolism’ because you’re depressed and want to stop eating??
Many doctors don’t know: Low B12 can also be the result of insufficient
vitamin D. Your body needs vitamin D in order to absorb the B12 in your
food. If you live above latitude 35 deg, in cloudy overcast or wintery
type places and/or don’t get outdoors then you are likely on the low
side for vitamin D. Most older folks don’t get much sunlight regardless
of where they live and will be low D. So get your D level tested or
just assume you are D low and take 1000-2000 IU per day along with
eating meats.
My blood test shows that I have over 1300 (PG/ML) of B12, my bilirubin over 1.7 (MG/DL), and high levels of bad cholesterol. Every year when I see those High levels of B12 on my yearly physical exams I ask my Doctor if that is OK, and I always receive the same answer. “No worries It is fine.” I have a feeling that it is not fine.
I thought I was dying, before I was diagnosed with Vit B12 deficiency, it felt like my body was shutting down. It was an extreme effort just to walk, I felt absolutely lifeless. Even washing dishes was exerting too much energy. Fortunately I was diagnosed immediately, by my description of the symptoms. Obviously I had to be tested, but my Dr. was correct.
Strangely, shortly before I need a top up of vitamins, I get a craving for cow’s milk. As well as extreme fatigue.
GOD TELL PEOPLE OF ISRAEL BEFORE START JOURNEY FROM EGYPT TO ISRAEL KILL GOAT AND EAT MEAT OF GOAT WHY Vit 12 difisency OF 9 year journey. but they travel 40 year
Because of a diagnosis of Pernicious Anemia Have taking B12 inter muscular shots several years. Was given instructions
thank you so much for this. the way you illustrated and explained everything made it very easy to understand. and never mind the negative comments about your voice,you have a lovely voice,you are just too soft spoken for some, maybe because of what they may be watching the video on,the volume levels might have been too low for some to hear your clearly.
From animal products. Reeeeeally???? You will die from another disease befor you ever realize you have B-12 deficiency. Please take time and check the studies of B-12 in high meat consumption countries.
I have a burning sensation all over my body, the pain is just horrible and scary like literally I am on a grill, my tongue is swollen, stabbing and needles pain, my skin is dry AF that it hurts when I bend my fingers and toes, persistent headache, fatigue and tiredness all the time. All that shit and not a single doctor thought that it might be a b12 deficiency!!
Has anyone tried Erectodom Secrets? (search on google) We’ve heard numerous amazing things about this popular erectile dysfunction natural treatment.

What are some ways to solve your erectile dysfunction problem? I read lots of great reviews on the net about how Erectodom Secrets will help you solve your erectile dysfunction problem. Has any one tested out this popular erectile dysfunction natural treatment?
Thank u, it’s very useful ��
But i have a question
What the difference between macrocytic anemia and pernicious anemia? Both of them have a deficiency of vit b12 ��
Vit B12 is produced by a special kind of bacteria. The animals are just fed with Vit B12. Thats why there is B12 in animal products
But anyway great Video
My whole 40 yrs of life doctors failed to recognize VitaminB12 mild, last 4 yrs extremely SEVERE deficiency..Hospital Emergency FAILED too, but charged me $5000. Finally current doctor (nurse practitioner) very first visit diagnosed B12 Def.. FEEL SUPER HAPPY, NORMAL, NERVES COMING BACK, SLEEP IS BACK. I can’t thank her enough.. Saved my life.. Severe case, Nerves all kinds of problem, memory loss, confusion, imbalance, headaches, dizziness, head spin (DANGEROUSLY LOW B12).. Yes, I was lifelong vegetarian, lactose INTOLERANT. Last 4 yrs, I didn’t sleep, tired, crash, head hung, body brains desperately sleeping giving up, but hear nerves keeps me painful awake deeply, it’s like zamby ghostly living with head nearve..No sleep created it’s own host of severe problem, aging, losing hair, gray hair etc… THANKS TO THE NEW Nurse practitioner & DOC, it was as simple as injecting B12 (3 inject one a week, 3 more to go, one monthly. So total 6 B12 inject). My whole life every doctor missed it..
Please fix the audio in this video!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For only Three months, my very own daily episode of sleeping disorders has ultimately gone. The sleep treatment “Fαntυgα Fαzαm” (Google it) I used had saved me costs from obtaining prescription medication. Before all these, I can just get Three to four hours of excellent rest. Yet soon after adhering to this program, I managed to get Seven straight great resting hours. A year had passed, I could say that in many years these recent good sleep are the best I ever have..
Yeah, she sounds like she has a bus to catch and is really in a hurry! LOL Question! What about sublingual B-12? I’m old and apparently my body cannot digest B-12 but I do get a monthly shot. Thanks for the video!

my b12 deficiency was so bad that my fingernails were turning blue because of the lack of blood cells getting to them.
My Vit B has always been low,,I’m anemic,,,I went vegan about 6 months ago n now my B-12 is sky high because I use brewers yeast n not cheese,,, Holy crap who knew,,, my dr said if it’s to hi it’s ok,,,I don’t believe any of them
Part of the video use the same audio clip from the Folate deficiency video. It seems lazy to me, but it works since B12 and folate deficiency can have similar symptom
sir my blood count is 10 and mcv is 127 plz recomend treatment age is 33 years i eat B12 and folic acid cap but no any change
Do your own research…..youtube doesnt claim to be 100% accurate.
Yes, volume is way too low, and that is with high quality speakers.
Evrybody commenting about the volume need new headphones or to turn up the volume or buy a better phone with high quality speakers because I hear her just fine. And my volume is not all the way up. Thank you for this info!
Wow I just should’ve read and medical journal no can you just explain it for dummies like myself, thank you very much ♥️��������
This video needs to be updated. A maintenance injection given only every 1 -3 months are for people who have a very mild form of genetic B12 deficiency. Moderate to severe cases require maintenance doses ranging from 1x per month, or 1x every two weeks, or even 1x per week depending on the severity. Please make sure you have your information together before stating something so careless that it could kill someone who relies on this info. Thank you.
I’ve just been informed my folate levels too low I’m not gonna fret as there’s way worse stuff out there
Hi, thanks, so much for the help i never anyone show me how it works and what you need to help you, i have the B 12 need a shot cause my gut won’t take it, but now i know how it works and how i can help me in living better thanks, GREAT VIDEO, I CAN HEAR YOU FINE don’t know what they saying, you just speak softly cause your a girl is all, thanks

The speaker has a deficiency for sure.. barely can we hear her!! ��

Cells at work got me into wanting to learn more about the body.. and these videos make it easy to understand
What I dont understand is you say you’re not the highest fan of supplements yet you recommend protein, creatine, boron, ashwaganda, vitb12, collagen, turmeric, maca. Etc etc
My fitness performance is poor right now. Gonna try a b complex supplement and paying more attention to my food choices.
so what type of doctor, or what type of testing does my family doctor need to do to find out why my energy “has left the building” so to speak. i have been taking sublingual b-12 for over a year, and nothing has changed. also, my magnesium level is, and has remained in critically low level, despite infusions twice a week for months. and my doc can not figure out why.
Supplements containing Adenosyl cobalamin and Methyl cobalamin are better than cyano cobalamin and hydroxycobalamin
Thank you for the video.! it was way helpful than the doctors i have seen or visited.
It’s also a condition that gets misdiagnosed often.
There are supplements that is methlycobalamin 5,000 mcg is this good enough?
Cyanocobalamin is the man-made version and should be avoided……methylcobalamin is also a natural form and a much better choice.
……..Lithium is important for enhancing the transport of B12, into cells.
Hi, great video! So if I take a capsule, the b12 doesn’t get a chance to bind to the Haptocorrin, does that mean my supplement is just getting disintegrated in my stomach acid?
thank u thank u so much for this awesome informative information. I’m on it off to getting B12 supplements, Any B12 supplement suggestions that are great in your book??? I always have joint pain do u think I should also take tumeric for inflammation??? I love ur channel I just found it and I’m already obsessed ��
Vegans get B12 from Brewers Yeast. You also don’t know much here.
Your the best thanks alot…just one point in 8:26 its methionine synthase not homocystin
Thank you very much. Your explanation is simple and informative ��.
what about the one who is diabetic on insulin will supplement absorb?
2 years ago i used metformin for weight loss, i lose wieght but got ice pick headach which i never experienced in the past, after that i got grey hair in th area of ice pick headache. Than i stop using metformin and from past 1 and half years im using vitamin B12 sublingual, Now i get less pain and some of grey hair turn blach. But now due to my stress and depression nothing works, my hair turns grey faster. Im 32. Now what can i do. Also premature grey hair is not in my family genetics.
Your information might help ful. But u should remember that u are addressing people who have no knowledge of health until they become sick and goes to doctor. Simplify your language
Sir, I am suffering for b12 deficiency. Our body not absobptio b12.
Fantastic video and easy to follow. Though as usual the super rich world of enzymes makes it easy to get lost for a newbee.
And again, the lesson here is chewing your food and taking time eating is key. I think one the reasons why I was deficient in nutrients in general was eating too fast and drinking too much coffee. The latter makes your stress levels go high which makes you chew less and faster. Oh boy!
Do proton pump inhibitors increase, the chance of B12. Deficiency
Very informative, who knew your body might not be utilizing carbohydrates. Indeed no exercise or supplements can ever replace a healthy diet.
Best video on YT on this topic.
I’d like to add something about the weird terminology here, just details but might help someone:
1) haptocorrin = transcobalamin I (and I think formerly aka transcobalamin III) = cobalophilin = R-protein = R-factor = R-binder [“R” stands for “rapid electrophoretic mobility”].
2) The intrinsic factor receptor in the terminal ileum is also called “cubilin”; the receptor in the kidney that’s responsible for the B12 reabs. is the same like the one in the terminal ileum (it is also cubilin!) with the small difference that megalin was added to this receptor (which means this receptor is more “elaborate” than the one in the terminal ileum). Also, in order for cubilin to work, you need a membrane protein that will make cubilin stay put (and will help in the endocytosis, once B12 bound), this protein being called “amnionless”.
3) A mutation in cubilin or amnionless (autosomal recessive) leads to the Imerslund-Gräsbeck syndrome (syn.: defect of enterocyte intrinsic factor receptor, enterocyte cobalamin malabsorption, megaloblastic anemia 1, juvenile pernicious anemia with proteinuria due to selective intestinal malabsorption of vitamin B12), 1:200k in Finland/ Norway -> patients will have problems with both, B12 abs. AND reabs (remember, cubilin/ amnionless is present in both organs).
4) B12 bound to transcobalamin II (the transporter in the blood) is called “Holotranscobalamin” (“active B12”).
5) Haptocorrin is also produced in the stomach, not only by the salivary glands; and, as said in the vid, haptocorrin can bind 80% of the B12 in the blood making it unavailable for use.
Source(s): Boron, wiki, GHR, countless research papers until I found out what “R” in “R-factor” stands for.
Motivation: When I first studied B12 abs. I was frustrated because people would either be SHIT in explaining it (i.e., didn’t know the exact mechanism), or would provide incomplete explanations; the fkd up terminology wouldn’t improve things…
Thank you <3
I wonder if I’m a poor absorber of b12 because I was taking 25mcg of b12 a day and had a little tingling in my legs and hands occasionally. I was not eating animal protien. Now I take 1000mcg a day. I might go down to 250mcg like dr. Michael Greger recommends. But I feel good now.
I like your videos very much. I guess you’re studying to be a doctor, which is super full on anyway, let alone uploading videos too. But I think you might be able to remember more about important subjects if you do the videos on the real important stuff. I dont know, I just thought I’d comment to say that it could be a good idea for memory retention.
Cheers, have a good one.
