Default Maybe you should be taking B12!

Here's the very valuable Chris Kessler on B12:

B12 deficiency: a silent epidemic with serious consequences

Quote:
However, B12 deficiency is far more common than most health care practitioners and the general public realize. Data from the Tufts University Framingham Offspring Study suggest that 40 percent of people between the ages of 26 and 83 have plasma B12 levels in the low normal range – a range at which many experience neurological symptoms. 9 percent had outright deficiency, and 16 percent exhibited “near deficiency”. Most surprising to the researchers was the fact that low B12 levels were as common in younger people as they were in the elderly.


Read the whole article; it's really an revelation to me.

I'm interested because my husband is taking methylated B's as part of his treatment, and I mistakenly got some regular B12. So I started taking it, in the spirit of "can't hurt" and I was amazed at the vividness of my dreams, and the wonderful feeling my brain had when I woke up.

So call me a believer, and I urge YOU to give it a try. Dirt cheap and can't hurt!
