The Latest B-12 News
Many nutritionists, dieticians, and people
having variations of alphabet soup after their
names and calling themselves "doctor" generate
entirely too much cash flow by testing their
patients for B-12 deficiency and then prescribing
MLM income-generating B-12 supplements which
serve to benefit only the practitioner.
There is just one reliable B-12 deficiency test,
and most "healers" do not use it. The Schilling
test requires that the patient be injected with
a dose of radioactive cobalt/B-12. Over the course
of the next 24 hours, urine samples are collected
and analyzed in a machine called a scintillation
spectrometer.
A publication in the April, 2009 issue of a Greek
journal (the Hellenic Journal of Nuclear Medicine,
Apr;12(1):84- 6), reveals that the Schilling test,
considered the "gold standard" of B-12 deficiency
tests, has not been commercially available since
2003. The authors write:
"...restoration of Schilling test in the clinical
setting is necessary for the etiological diagnosis
of B(12) insufficiency at least until a new and
better vitamin B(12) absorption test is approved."
Any carnivore who insists that Vitamin B-12
naturally is present in meat is telling an untruth.
Any cheese-eating vegetarian who relates that dairy
products naturally contain B-12 is spreading a myth.
Any vegan who trusts that Vitamin B-12 is naturally
found in some plants is technically being accurate.
One can find B-12 in nutritional yeast and seaweed.
For many years, vegan "experts" have claimed that
these plant sources do not work in humans. New
research suggests that these experts are wrong.
Vitamin B-12 is not naturally found in meat, dairy,
fruits, vegetables, grains, or legumes.
Animal foods do not naturally contains B12 because
B-12 is a sign of filth. Little bugs. Microorganisms.
However, if you eat decaying meat or dairy, you
will also ingest Vitamin B-12 as a result of bacterial
digestive processes. These little bugs manufacture
B-12 as their own waste products.
If you refrain from washing and peeling the tiny hairs
at the ends of organically grown carrots, you will also
take B-12 into your body.
The very best source for both hepatitis and B-12 can
be found in clams.
Nutritionists claim that milk is a great source of
B-12. Milk also causes anemia. See:

People over age 60 are urged to drink milk to
supplement a supposed B-12 deficiency. Many people
over age 60 also are diagnosed with a common
malady, anemia. The Schilling test is used to
confirm pernicious anemia in adults due to the
deficiency or malabsorption of Vitamin B-12.
