Symptoms of Vitamin B 12 Deficiency are variable. Most people develop fatigue, brain fog, and shortness of breath.
Vitamin B-12 deficiency is linked to several health issues. Anemia, depression, nerve damage, memory issues, and much more. The two most common symptoms linked to B-12 deficiency are depression and fatigue.
Serum vitamin B-12 levels is not a good indicator for vitamin B12 deficiency. Functional medicine doctors typically evaluate vitamin B-12 using more advanced lab testing.
Causes of vitamin B12 deficiency include poor diet, GI dysfunction, gluten sensitivity, and many different types of medications to include, those given for heartburn, diabetes, and infection.
The only foods with vitamin B12 are found in animals. Fruits, vegetables, nuts, and seeds contain no B12.

Every Pyschiatrist should watch this video. My brother was treated with 4 psych meds when all he needed was b12 shots. He suffered from pernicious anemia. I am so upset about what the doctors did to my brother. I will write about it some day.
i totally agree...😪 it is my passion also but being so sick i have to get consistency with my own first.. the merry-go-round is tediously infuriating
He needs folic acid to heal at cell level with the b12 injection check his vitamin d also needs multi b and magnesium to help his absorption issues
Ideally, yes, but Sorrrrry... 99% of them wouldn't care+/ or $$$$$$$ is KING so .... I w go w Dr. O n TRY it!, l'm so sad about the state of MEDICAL CARE in America
@@yvonnekavanagh2617 NOOOOOOOOO! No no no on "folic acid"....he needs folate, and to ensure he has or doesn't have MTHFR mutations because if so, methylcobalamine, vs cobalamin
oh, I have a story for every organ system, as a former nurse who was left to die with out medical help and now a disabled patient but slowly, torturously healing with the grace of God and my fortitude, a lot of mental anguish, isolation, but but I can write a 12 volume series and that's just my story. I have one for all family members of mine, and the lack of proper genetic testing, environmental toxins, etc. All "specialists" are dangerous. Psychiatrists don't even realize that adverse childhood events also cause autoimmune disease. If they do, they are quiet.
I am the medical director of a clinic in DC and we do all kinds of IV nutrition therapy and hormone balancing. The result of most disease is poor diet and food allergies that wear out the body and create serious imbalances. I love videos like this from Osbourn and others as this is what I do and learn a lot from others in the same field.
I am homozygous for A(1298)C MTHFR and platelets are on the low side of normal. I take Pepcid twice daily. Wow, I learned a lot here.
oversimplification. I thought I was eating healthy for decades , until I found out I was working in a moldy workplace, living in a moldy house, and I was eating "healthy foods' that ARE..mold. Also, genetics like HLA gene, MTHFR mutations, and other things not related. "Food allergies" are a function of a taxed immune system too. Not just the other way around. I was infested with mold, also reactivated lyme I didn't know I had, heavy metal poisoning from city water, etc. Chemtrails EMFs from the towers, etc. Adverse childhood events, abuse, neglect, a narcissistic parent, etc.....all cause autoimmunity too. iV therapy is fine but it's not healing if the root issues aren't explored. If the patient comes to you, but goes back home to their mold...?
I have intrinsic factor antibodies (pernicious anemia). My deficiency was missed by doctors twice and was told I just needed antidepressants. I asked for a full blood testing including vitamins etc and it came back I was severely deficient. I sent my results from 10 years earlier to my aunt, who is a nurse, and she told me to ask for intrinsic factor antibodies test as my results from 10 years were low to her (even though technically it was in the normal range, it was two away from deficient). It came back positive for antibodies and I'm on injections for life thankfully.
Take folic acid with injections to heal at cell level and cofactors multi b and magnesium
@@yvonnekavanagh2617 I do :)
I was 42 when I finally found out I have a HOLE in the heart with aneurism that was caused (the latter part) from healthcare neglect during the plandemic. It's just so hard and scary. I'm glad you fount out! Im glad your aunt, a nurse, knew to ask. Todays, younger nurses.....forget it! I have thalassemia, and on B12 shots too. Thankfully too (as long as we have access, and money)
I love the fact that you mention serum levels and the different tests that test intercellular levels. Most people don't consider this or even know the difference. Thanks
I am in tears!! You have no idea how much this makes sense!! Thank you very very much!!
I had helobacter pylori and was given beta blockers.
My optic nerve started flashing. I had my own fireworks display (circular annulus)
Then my hand went numb, and I couldn't control my temper.
My doctor nailed it. VitB12.
8 years later, still got a problem.
Mostly with doctors.
They are sooo stubborn.
Every one I go to wants me to have lab tests, even with my history before them.
Your vid is 7 years old and still helpful. Thank you!
Now 11 years old and still extremely helpful. All medical students should watch this video.
When first diagnosed w/ B12 deficiency, I was located in lower Appalachia. What was interesting at that time, and still is, was the doctor told me a marked number of women developed this deficiency, in Appalachia. I'd only been here a year. Thank you for your research/commentary and looking forward to your updates.
You have to get it from diet ,
I had pernicious anemia (vit B12) but healing my gut (#lowcarb and Intermittent fasting) I am not longer low on vit b12 :) thank you
Can you recover from pernicious anemia? Did you do injections b12 or just supplementing?
@@jesusiscomingbeready8169 I never heard anyone saying ''I had PERNICOUS ANEMIA... It is a life long condition...
Very interesting I have been experiencing what I thought was vertigo I heard if vertigo last for more than 20 minutes it’s not vertigo. After two ER visits and one ENT visit and two cat scans a RN told me I may have Ménière’s disease. After watching many UA-cam videos I felt I had an autoimmune issue attacking my inner ear/balance causing severe nausea for days; all as a result of B12 deficiency. I’ve been taking B12 and Flavinoid so far so good!
Awesome!! so glad you are getting value from my channel!! Make sure you are subscribed...and make sure you pay it forward by sharing with others! #Save100MillionLives
This is so important and a lot more people need to be educated about this ! I was diagnosed with coeliacs and completely underestimated it at my peril !
I'm currently being tested for coeliac. I have had numbness and tingling in my armsvand legs for last couple of years. Did you have this issue?
I'm a vegetarian and found b-12 supplements in my local health store (Holland and Barrett). They work fine and have improved my health massively. :)
Even with supplements 34% of Vegetarians will be B12 deficient.
@phoenix Ghe This is a fact. of the over 100 vegetarians they tested the vegans had a 52% deficiency even with vitamin usage. 26% with vegetarians. This was in Germany, you can imagine how much worse the american vegans are health-wise.
"Results: Of the 3 groups, the vegans had the lowest vitamin B-12 status. In subjects who did not consume vitamins, low holotranscobalamin II (< 35 pmol/L) was found in 11% of the omnivores, 77% of the LV-LOV group, and 92% of the vegans. "
"Irrespective of vitamin usage, low vitamin B-12 concentrations (< 156 pmol/L) were found in 1% of the omnivores compared with 26% of the LV-LOV subjects and 52% of the vegans."
academic.oup.com/ajcn/article/78/1/131/4689908
@goku son Exactly, a vegan diet is not possible without a significant risk of b12 deficiency, which can impair brain function, and long-term health.
@goku son So youn have to take high doses, I think he mentioned 15 mg (15,000 mcg), if I find 5000 mcg (5 mg) I take about 4 or 5. And I'm on carnivore diet at the moment to reduce fatty liver. I have absorption issues due to fistula and colostomy and duodenal ulcer and prilosec. So, you have to flood your system with B12 for a decent amount to get in.
@@Gamerad360Vegan Diet is best, I'd rather be a little B12 deficient than a fat ass like the rest of the US population
Why are vegetarians so violent toward other people? Just a thought...
You know what they say...be nice to vegetarians, they are full of tofu.
You mean vegans...there are a few radicals there that are like a religious group. Scary to see videos by those calling themselves doctors and preach how extra virgin olive oil and fish are bad for your health! That should show you the lies and how unintelligent and/or how clear they want to spread their agenda.
Rembrandt133
It's so difficult to say what is healthy to eat or what not....olive oil made without hexane and not oxidized is pretty healthy i would say....but cheap versions might be even bad for your health....same for fish oil....is it pure and not oxidized and without heavy metals and other toxins?...and these days radiation is a big factor due to fukushima. So, there are many versions of 1 product and not so simple to say what is good and what is bad.
Good video, but I am very put off by your remark about vegetarians. Really??
Jo11ee not trying to offend vegetarians, but look at all the outrage in the comments...
Truth.. I am b12 deficient and now supplementing and I can already tell the difference when I walk.
Wow. So glad I've watched this...battled breast cancer in 2017. Really feeling depressed :( fortunately my b12 injections will be there in 2 days. Glad I was led this route over a week ago.
Take ALL your essential 90
Thank you Doctor. I wish that I had known of this years ago. It is so rare for a medical doctor to promote AND explain the usage of the vitamins and particularly the B group. Very interesting. Nice video.
***** It's not a conspiracy. It's just that most doctors are idiots. Most people in most professions are idiots. I work in engineering, and you wouldn't believe some of the shit I've heard engineers say.
I like how easily you explain things. You make complex processes, and the effects of outside variables such as medications and medical conditions, easier to comprehend. Thank you:)
Thank you Dr. Osborne, that was one of the most compact and informative videos I've seen in years. What's needed is a book, or maybe a downloadable pdf, which contains this information and the same level of detail for all the other vitamins and mineral that humans need. I've spent the last two years trying to piece this altogether in order to correct some personal health problems. If this information was available as a single download, I could have had my self on the right track in a matter of weeks, not years!! Carry on the great work.
I agree, but nothing will ever replace meat, and that will NEVER change.
severe B-12 deficiency mostly comes from auto-immune Biermer desease and among elderly people when the stomach produces less intrinsic factor necessary for the absorption of the B-12
I actually forgot I have pernicious anemia and been feeling strange past few months. This is a really great explanation so thank you doctor! Time for a shot.
Eat liver.😊
Wow, my right big toe went numb and nobody could or would tell me why, gave me ant-inflammatory meds like gabapentin or Ibuprophen, I didn't take them and it got worse (nobody stressed to me that those could have saved or reversed the numbness if caught in time)... now every once in a while I feel sharp pains running down my toe and I can imagine (a picture of a branch of inflamed nerves throbbing) into my toe. Nobody told me it could be a vitamin deficiency! .... I am not diabetic, I am healthy as a horse other than being a bit over weight.. I thought it might be pressure on the nerves in my back due to lower disc bulging but I took a multivitamin for active women and the pain in my toe reduced in a day.... I think I have some investigating to do! Thanks so much for the video!
I was diagnosed with PA about 20 years ago, at the age of 36 The first thing my doctor asked me was if I was vegetarian/vegan. Although, not a big fan of beef or pork, I do eat chicken and fish. By the time I was diagnosed, I couldn't walk, use my hands and was in a fog. My doctor suggested that it might be PA, so gave me that vibration test, then a Shillings test. Mine was so low, he wanted to put me directly in the hospital. I have been taking shots (cyanocobalamine) for these 20 years. I'm interested to know more about this other medicine. Thanks
which one is better cyano or methilcobalamin
Thank you Dr. Osborne, that was really interesting, I knew about Methylmelonic and Homocystine test... this brings back memory in the class room... really appreciated this.
Great Job! I love when people take out there time to teach others!!! Thanks.
B12 deficiency has more to do with your digestive health and for most of the deficiencies, it is the digestive health which is the primary culprit which most people ignore and particularly will doctors never tell you as it affects multi million dollar industry called hospitals and pharmaceutical companies.
+Akshta Singh You're a half-witted creature.
You are correct. You could be eating all the b12 foods and b12 supplements in the world, but if you have a weak digestion, you are not absorbing much.
@@britishenglishcoach1005 You must be perfect. How nice for you.
@@britishenglishcoach1005 that would be you
I am so glad I subscribe do you because you explain everything so well and you have benefit helping me with my health problem I am so glad you talk a lot about gluten celiac act disease because that’s what I have thank you so very much for all your help you are so very helpful God bless you 🥰
❤
i have depression and anxiety and electric shock pains through my body...thanks very much
Do all people with deficiency show symptoms? I've been vegan for 25 years but show no negative symptoms. I have too much energy and am very positive. By reading the latest medical research I have learned that the balance of our intestinal flora plays huge role in the absorption of B12 and that can cause depression. So it's not just the food you ingest but the environment in your body that allows it to digest and absorb optimally
Thank you for this explanation. I'm low in all the Bs and hypothyroid. This is very helpful.
Sometimes gluten intolerance causes vitamin b12 deficiency and sometimes vitamin b12 deficiency causes gluten intolerance. First it is wheat, rye, oats and barley. Then later corn and rice too, which also have gluten, but not so strong gluten. After awhile, supplements don’t work so well. You have to eat liver four or five times a week. Not a problem. You can cook it in bacon because it needs a lot of fat to cook it. Then you can add tomatoes or barbecue sauce to kill the taste.
This has made everything SO MUCH CLEARER! Thank you! Wish you had been my lecturer back when I was doing biomed! Thank you!
I am curious what it means when the B12 is extremely high on a b12 blood test. My 15 yr old daughter's b12 was about 1700 on the last 2 tests we did, which were 6 months apart. She is taking a supplement with methycobalamin and 5-MTHF. A functional medicine practitioner we saw after the first test said that my daughter was methyl trapping, which is why I switched her b complex to contain both of the broken down forms of folate and b12. I thought excess B vitamins were excreted in the urine. I need to find out if she is actually deficient because her body cannot use the b12 she has or if she, indeed, is taking too much b12. When I had the first test done, I tested folate and homocysteine also. I know I should have done the MMA test, but our NP had no idea what that was, so he just ordered the other tests. Any ideas would be appreciated. My daughter has a chronic illness and she is pretty sick.
Thank you so much for all your details. Your Videos are some of my favorites for specifics on Supplements.
Thank you for your videos! Very informative and easy to follow. I am very glad that I’ve found your channel on UA-cam.
Great videos from this guy, i now think i know why i feel so unwell.
Thanks Doc! That was quick and painless. I am sure that I have 3 of those problems. Chicken and fish are the foods I eat, but don't eat red meat. I hope that not a problem. I will try the B-12 today. My pancreas keep telling me like Clint Eastwood, Go head, make my day, so sugar and bread are off my diet, so I am willing to try anything to get off the Nexium.
I had gastric bypass surgery 7 years ago. I am now extremely depressed, lethargic and fatigued. I have trouble with short term memory and get confused quite easily. I went to the Va hospital to get treated for hep-c, I had several blood test done and just found out that I have extremely low levels of b12, my doctor sais it was probably caused by the weight loss surgery. I can't wait to start feeling better; have not started the shots yet, Thanks Doc for the info.
I read recently that B12 was a bacteria that washes off vegetables when washed. Can you elaborate on this please?
Also, a friend had a daughter when she was on a vegan diet. Her daughter is now in her 40’s and can’t digest meat. The doctor she saw said that because she didn’t have meat in her early years she didn’t create the enzymes to digest meat. This raises the question to me, were we designed to not eat meat? I am seeing many vegan people who are living incredibly healthy lives.
Good afternoon. I was diagnosed with MS in May of 2012. After finally getting a second opinion, it "may" be something else. I have started b-12 injections in December 2013. To be honest until the day of my first b-12 injection, I felt was was fading away to a point of making plans for my funeral. The second neurologist seemed suspicious of my low b12 count so he asked I get injections. Pucker up butter cup!

yes... i was on the MS suspect too maannny years ago... but no evidence of it... then with my own research over time i figured it out... [full disclosure it was numerous other also - basically everything iron , vit D , magnesium etc.. but b12 was THE most specific link to MS related symptoms]
thank you Docter your gift of knoledge is so very apreciated!
Thanks doc, for taking the time to create awareness about B12 in such a lucid manner.
Dr. Peter Obborne & Mindful valuable viewers:
Please accept my thankful appreciation for valuable comments, and lecture.
This is an excellent presentation. Thank you!!!!
Very informative, interesting & helpful. Non boring, non clinical. Thank you Dr. Osbourne.
Is desiccated beef liver a good source for b12? And can you experience muscle and nerve pain as you start taking it? Thanks for any input!
Eating liver is a good source of B12.
I really appreciate your video. I have been suffering from the main symptoms you have described and was suspicious that I may be lacking from B12 deficiency in some way. I am vegetarian and I understand why you suggested meat. For most people, that is all they understand and is the quickest and easiest solution. I am not saying it is the RIGHT one for an individual, and especially for the animal. Those who do more research come to understand that it is the bacteria that actually provide the vitamin that it comes from not only the animals but from the ground, soil. water et cetera as another viewer pointed out. But what is the likelihood that someone will start eating raw unwashed veggies? Or drink unprocessed water? For the average person, near zero.
I don't like the harsh words toward this man. He is speaking to the masses and this is some great information to get started with. He does suggest the right types of supplements, that can be used INSTEAD of meat, which is what I prefer. But I do have a question if anyone has bothered to read this far: what is the shelf life and how do you best protect methylcobolamin when stored? Also, what is the best dosage? Does it need to be taken with any other vitamins, minerals or food to promote Bioavailability? Alkalizing foods or anything? Some insight into these areas would really make a great follow up to this video.
very helpful video, even for vegans. It's good to know these details no matter what ur diet is. thku.
Changing my diet, cutting out coffee and alcohol and introducing a quality probiotic cured my heartburn.
A probiotic supplement?
thanks for the information...This points out that B12 is not an isolated issue and your clarification to your viewers reminds them that there are 1,000's on interactions and inter-relationships in our bodies..
youre good informative teacher...I am diabetic and sensitive to gluten and hyper acidity feeling leaky gut
Awesome well explained! Cheerssss
I notice my energy levels are low when missing my dose of B-12..
This is such important information. Thanks.
Excellent explanation. Thanks.
B-12 IS very important for oure live and when loss B-12 its take more time to be normal
Protein intake in vegetarian diets is only slightly lower than in meat diets and can meet daily requirements for any person, including athletes and bodybuilders.[52] Studies at Harvard University as well as other studies conducted in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and various European countries, confirmed vegetarian diets provide sufficient protein intake as long as a variety of plant sources are available and consumed.[53] Proteins are composed of amino acids, and a common concern with protein acquired from vegetable sources is an adequate intake of the essential amino acids, which cannot be synthesised by the human body. While dairy and egg products provide complete sources for ovo-lacto vegetarian, several vegetable sources have significant amounts of all eight types of essential amino acids, including lupin beans, soy,[54] hempseed, chia seed,[55] amaranth,[56] buckwheat,[57] pumpkin seeds[58] spirulina,[59] pistachios,[60] and quinoa.[61] However, the essential amino acids can also be obtained by eating a variety of complementary plant sources that, in combination, provide all eight essential amino acids (e.g. brown rice and beans, or hummus and whole wheat pita, though protein combining in the same meal is not necessary). A 1994 study found a varied intake of such sources can be adequate.[62]. Look in Wikipedia and you will actually see links to the studies done. So, what he's saying is not factual.
tell that to my NO SICKNESS in FIVE FULL YEARS! I work around kids, daily, and they get the flu, coughs, colds, etc., yet, I haven't been ill one day in five years. So much for being robbed. NO SICKNESS...think about that. I bet all the meat eaters have had the flu in the past two years. Why is that? Because they keep listening to the hype concerning meat and protein. You're being BS'ed, just so that you know. There is a lady that is in her 70's. She looks like she's in her 20's, and she doesn't eat meat. Another one is in her 60's yet looks like she's in her 20s. She stopped eating meat 40 yrs ago. She's still alive, but she hasn't aged. Why is that? Vegetarians have increasingly shown that they age better than their meat eating counterparts, they feel ten times better, and they don't get sick as often. So much for the hype!
I don't think so, Matt. I have always eaten lots of veggies and fruits, but I also ate meat. It wasn't until I stopped eating the meat that I became healthier, and I stopped getting sick with flu and other viruses. I also don't take pro-biotics, nor a variety of supplements. I take three supplements, as vegetarians are often low on these particular ones. So, that can't be it, either. I always drank water from the tap, so again, that's not what's causing it, even though, recently, I began using distilled water. I tested the city's water and found that it had a ph level of 8.0, which is way too high. So, decided it's best to limit the minerals and chlorine in my system. However, the health benefits occurred long before that change.
Thank you Sincerely, again for sharing Dr Osborne, for the incredible amount of time, effort & Research that has gone into this re-producing information that you are sharing. Was thinking while listening, Q, please. Is it possible that Vit. B12 deficiency or even the MTHFR Gene mutation, cause Dystonia? Given that a deficiency in B12 causes Muscle Contractions? Just a thought! Plus how can one be tested for that MTHFR Gene Mutation, please? Thank you, from the Land Downunder.🙃🙂
Genetic testing 1) 23&me 2) Dante will give info on genetic mutations.
Very simply put and a great way of getting the information across to the general public. Well done and thanks so much.
Dr Osborne, what is the recommended daily amount for B12 deficiency for a person with gluten sensitivity? When you say B12 comes from meat, are you referring to all meat or specific animal/fish? What is the recommended amount to eat a day? I'm not much of a beef eater as it usually just sits in my gut for days and clogs my intestines. Thank you.
If you have malabsorption issues you cannot digest b12 supplements and need b12 injections with folic acid and cofactors
This explains my hibernation mode in 3 days! Thanks Dr. Osborne, you gave me a very clear illustration! I was able to connect the dots.
You can definitely have sufficient Vitamin B12 in your blood, but be deficient in your cells. As he says in his video, your blood doesn't use it, your cells do. Elevated homocysteine levels are a good sign you are deficient. He mentions a couple of other tests too. Google MTHFR and Vitamin B12 too.
Thank you Dr Osborn for a very helpful educational video. This information has helped me greatly.
Your video about vitamin B-5 deficiency first popped up after I searched for videos on how to help clear my son's acne. I was surprised by how many other symptoms of B-5 I am also currently experiencing. I got a bottle of pantothenic acid last night and I'm putting my entire family on it starting today. After I liked that B-5 video and subscribed (since as others have stated, you come across as an incredibly knowledgeable and caring doctor) the next video of yours to pop up was this one about vitamin B-12. Again- I am shocked at how many symptoms I have of a deficiency, but it all makes sense!
I have low stomach acid, don't drink milk (it gives me congestion) and my total daily intake of food is 1200 -1500 calories a day so I guess I just don't get enough nutrition from the calories (a small person like me) eats. I do also eat kind of a lot of sugar. I'm one of those people who will have a fresh kale, spinach, pineapple juice, frozen strawberries and banana smoothie for breakfast, a baked sweet potato with steamed broccoli for dinner and the equivalent of a king sized chocolate bar in the middle of the day, along with about 4, 16 oz bottles of water throughout the day. I eat meat (usually chicken or fish) only once a week. So much for that being adequate!
I won't launch into all the details but the last 4 years have been *incredibly* stressful with two devastating deaths in the family, having sudden and permanent falling outs with a couple of long term very close friends, my car being first vandalized by co-workers then broken into by local thieves in my driveway and having $5,000 worth of camera equipment stolen, working 60+ hours a week in a high pressure sales job for almost 4 years, losing my job, a prolonged upper respiratory infection after losing my medical insurance, moving twice in one year after a horrible divorce, breaking my foot in a sport accident, and well, you get the idea! It's no wonder I never wanted to get out of bed and barely have the energy to function in a given day. It never occurred to me that a vitamin/ mineral deficiency could hinder my coping with all that stress. I start on B-12 today as well.
I took upwards of 5 vitamins a day during my pregnancies including folic acid, omega fatty acids, Iron, B complex and a multi vitamin, but I pretty much stopped taking any vitamins after my last child stopped nursing. My mistake! Thank you so much for your wonderful videos and keep up the good work!!!😎👍❤️
(One tiny request: I noticed when you said Doctor in this video you always said "he" or "ask him". It's a small thing, but it would make you look like a more open minded and considerate person to alternate with "she" and "ask her", referring to the excellent women physicians out there as well. Thanks!!) By the way, throughout this week I will be sharing your incredibly helpful videos on both my personal and professional social media pages!! 🤗
can someone tell me where, in which country or pharmacy i can buy injectable methylcobalamin?
I forgot, you can get some from the feedstore, a liquid called Rooster Booster, it's B12 for chickens. It works for us too. Yes I have taken my livestock supplements at times, if it's a good product, it's still good even if it's for animals.
look at the Amazon...
And I just got the best of them at HSN ,good luck !
My last labs showed my B12 to be too high... This was strange because I don't take B12. I have been feeling terrible lately with all the symptms of B12 deficiency(nueropathy, hair falling out, spots in my vision, and almost passing out multiple times). I also suffer from pancreatitis. Could an elevated B12 still be a deficiency? Help!
Isn't Xylitol (listed as an ingredient in the B-12 supplement in the link) bad for you?
I haven't had meat/eggs since 1972. No dairy since 1990. Recently had B12 test and my doctor is happy with result. It is all genetic. One size does not fit all. I have been taking b12 cyanocobalamin since about 95.
Good for you. I lost my hair when I tried that.
Wow! I have never heard of blood cells other than red blood cells being considered anemia or related to B12. Thanks for sharing this!
Yeap. Folate and B12 deficiency can cause anemia. Unfortunately, we are only educated about iron deficiency.
Just got a prescription for B12 injections from my doctor today. Have a lot of the symptoms talked about here. I’ll be back in a few weeks to tell you how I get on with the injections.
Well?
Great Job! You are good, hard to speak for a long time with all the stock knowledge.
Dr. I'm a vegan & there's other sources of getting B12. For example, the moringa leaf is very rich in B12, and is higher than red meat. So I don't agree totally with your information, but will keep your information in mind to ensure that I'm meeting my B-12 requirements.
your wrong sorry
Please for the love of God someone help. I was diagnosed with H.pylori gastritis. They say it is gone.
Thyroid levels low but normal?
Vitamin D insufficient.
(I've been bedridden for almost 5 months)
B-12 levels high but normal
List goes on
Symptoms:
Cold nature
Shaky
Headaches
Burning in stomach
I'm sweating more but I'm freezing so cold sweats?
Dizzy
No energy/brick feet
Forgetful
Moody/loss of balance
Pale nails/blue/ pale eyelids
Constipation/diahera
Heart palpitations/short of breath
Rashes
Tingling in hands and feet
THE LIST GOES ON!
THEY ARE ALL SAYING IM FINE BUT Clearly IM NOT. THIS HAS TAKEN A HUGE TOLE ON ME AND MY FAMILY ESPECIALLY MY MOM. I NEED A DIAGNOSIS. SHOULD I SEE A SPECIALIST? I'm only 20. Could it be functional b-12? Prencious anemia? Please anyone
Hi, are you feeling any better ?
Vitamin D comes from exposure to sunlight. Get out more.
Get tested for a couple of genetic mutations called MTHFR. They can put you at risk for 100s of chronic illnesses and are very common in the population. MTHFR can cause B vitamin deficiencies....and the treatment is taking the ACTIVE or converted forms of B vitamins that by-pass the MTHFR blockages.
I know what's wrong with you..
LUIS Huerta But you don't know what's wrong with YOU. More's the pity.
Your a great person to take the time to make this video and try to help people. thank you
Absolutely brilliant the best info on B12 ive seen so far.. ive got all the symptoms, both my Dad and 2 sisters have to take the shots, my blood test show what they class as borderline and they still dont think its that.. now with this info ill go back to my GP and ask them to run the further tests.. thank you
Thank you for this comprehensive information Dr. Osborne. A family member has lost some of her sense of smell. Her B12 injections have been upped.
Niacin or Nicotinic Acid deficiency
Freakin incredible.. Very easy to understand.. Your one of the very few who I can understand thank you
Excellent lecture!! Thank you!
Doctor you are very brilliant well done
I have a book on healthy nutrition and a list of various diseases written by a very distinguished doctor and nutritionist in my country (who is by the way "not" a vegan), and this doctor openly proposes that we can derive "all" necessary nutrients from plants (carbohydrates, proteins, fats, all vitamins and minerals), and although he lists meat, eggs and dairy as an example of foods that contain particular nutrient he mentions, he still dismisses these foods and proposes that proteins should exclusively by derived from plant based foods like grains etc. It also says in the book that besides meat, soy and mushrooms contain vitamin B12 as well.
This is not to say that we don't need to take vitamin B12 supplement when on plant based diet but stating that "only" meat contains the mentioned vitamin is a false information.
Animal cells don't produce b12. The only way an animal can get b12 is either from something they ate or from the healthy bacteria in their gut, which is also our main source of b12. Fruits and vegetables promote b12 producing bacteria in our gut, and certain foods like spirulina, chlorella, and yeast contain b12. Eating meat actually inhibits b12 absorption due to it promoting unhealthy gut bacteria and its high acidity, which is why over 40% of Americans have a b12 deficiency. There are a number of factors that can cause a lack of b12 absorption and if dietary changes don't work then b12 injections are the best way to go. It is completely false that meat contains any nutrient that can not be attained from a plant source.
Thank you for the information.
habadashery2009 You actually got that completely backwards, brewers yeast, fermeneted soy, seaweed, spirulina, etc are actually contain B12 analogs called cobamides that block intake of and increase the need for true B12. To learn more, Google this study "Pseudovitamin B(12) is the predominant cobamide of an algal health food, spirulina tablets."
they have yet to determine if b12 analogues actually block b12 absorption. Also virtually all modern animal products are devoid of b12, now b12 is either injected into animals, put into their feed, or animal products are enriched with b12. There are also many variables that effect b12 absorption and eating animal products won't guarantee b12 absorption. Currently over 40% of Americans have a b12 deficiency.
hadadashery your name is apropos since what you just wrote is a lot of nonsense. Making BS up to support your polemic doesn't equal actual knowledge or information.
I dont think the answer is eating meat or more meat as meat is bad for you in other ways. Many meat eaters are also deficient in b12. If eating meat is no guarantee and testing levels at the Doctor is unreliable then maybe it's just easier to have an b12 injection anyway - it wont do any harm.
I was on the paleo diet for over a year and still Vit B deficient. I stopped eating wheat 4 years ago. Grain-free for at least 2 years. But I have Candida overgrowth. I haven't listened to the entire presentation (listening now), but I know that Candida Overgrowth is getting in the way of absorbing nutrients from my food. I've done everything to get rid of it, but I cannot. The next thing is that I will be removing my mercury amalgams. I'm 1/2 done...I had 6 fillings that required crowns/overlays and 4 that can be refilled. Anyone else have any success stories after removing mercury amalgams?
Shonda Hector Doctors told me that I wasn't digesting proteins properly. I took digestive enzymes, HCL with pepsin...etc. Nothing helped me to digest me.
Shonda Hector
Hi Shonda, I avoid m. amalgams like the plague. It's a good thing that you are removing them. *Be sure that your dentist is keeping you safe(dam, etc.) while they are removed. That aside, I had challenges with candida as well and probiotics have helped me immensely.
Roxy Moz Yes, I've been on probiotics FOREVER! I change them up too. I make my own sauerkraut also. I just have a REALLY bad case of CANDIDA. I've tried all the diets: GAPS/SCD, Paleo, Candida Free...currently on BodyEcology so that I'm loading up on the non-starchy veggies and ocean veggies, about to add coconut kefir again!...this is a REAL CHALLENGE...also taking anti-fungals and even recently added prescription Nystatin and B-12 shots + other supplements. Thanks for your reply.
Shonda Hector
That stinks! It seems like you've tried everything. I would also try a cleanse and see what happens (that is if you haven't already). I would also try a homeopathic doctor, perhaps she/he can help you get rid of this problem. Good luck!
Very good presentation.
Excellent presentation!
We're all going to die of something whether we're vegan, vegetarian or otherwise. I chosse to be vegan because I feel so much better eating all fruits and vegetables that when I eat meats. Is it more healthy? I don't know nor do I care because it sure feels like it is. I've got more energy and I look better than I ever did on a meat diet. I really don't see why there is such a need for people to bash other people about what they choose to put into their own bodies.
I wish you the best in maintaining your bone density. Even though you are a dumbass.
Exactly. I've been vegetarian for 30 years and fit as a flea. meateaters are prone to arterial sclerosis and get fat as fuck (and smell) as they age.
Loved your response Erica! Im the same, I just fell 100% on a vegan diet. End of story.
nancee Lowcarb oops I mean feel, not fell.
Yes, each person is different. I'm looking at the Blood Type Diet and it makes sense. I'm an A (suggested vegetarian), but allows poultry and some fish.
We must be aware of foods that our body intake everyday in our lives!
Alot of excellent education. Thank you for bring this information to the public. This ppersonally helps me so much. You explained
this very well
***** agree
thank you kindly sir. the knowledge you shared about anti acid medication and it potentially affecting b 12 absorption is crucial.
Alcohols another reason for b12 or other b vitamin deficiencys
DON'T EAT GRAIN PRODUCTS!!!
no potatoes??
Grain = Death!!!
Grain, is LITERALLY GRASS seed.
It Should be considered a Last resort, starvation food.
In italy and japan always ate grain products and have high levels of longevity
Why not eat grains?
@@whitespacemarines4308 Grass seed OWULD be OK except that it's sprayed with Round Up for quick harvest. That's what the killing agent is.
Very informative video, thanks
However after I done quite a lot of research about B12, Hydroxocobalamin is suppose to be the superior form of B12 for safety and maximum absorption.
What do you think?
Most B12 supplements I know about are Cyanocobalamin, a one a day tablet, which I use, but learned about Hydroxocobalamin just recently. I don't know of safety issues with either as they are both water soluble and any excess is passed.
Dr. Osborne,
Wouldn't vitamin B12 shots be better? How much and how often? Please.
left ear is lit
Where do you think cows get vitamin B-12 from? It comes from grass. It is also a myth that you get enough B-12 from meat. Vegitarians and meet eaters either need to take b12 suppliments or juice wheatgrass.
***** That is why they invented wheatgrass juicers. Wheat grass juice is one of the most nutrient dense foods on the planet. There are a whole host of problems with eating meat which are NOT outweighed by the small amount of b-vitamins contained in it. I'm not going to convince anyone to go vegan with a simple youtube comment, but meat eaters are still generally deficient in B-12. He is outright lying when he says meat is the only source of B-12. It pisses me off when people scoff at vegan's like we've never heard of B-12 before, and even more so when the propagate misinformation.
Yeah. I tried a paleo diet for 6 months. Then I got cancer. I dont dont entirely attribute cancer to eating so much meat, but I am sure it didnt help. Go vegan!
Kyle Bultman A recent study has shown the much cheaper brocolli to be just as effective as the expensive faddist wheatgrass.
i say juice hemp and/or cannabis (thc-a non psychoactive )
Usually whole foods are a superior source of nutrients. However, vitamin B12 seems to be an exception. With B12 supplements there is no cholesterol, saturated fat, or any of the known carcinogens in foods from animals.
Thank you !
For your information 🙏👍
I wish this guy was my doctor nice explanation
*****
Thats a lie and you know it, this guy says it like it is
phillip galea What a shame a doctor does not even know what B12 is or does. Makes me question what type of doctor this guy even is. Isn't it odd that American doctors have such shoddy training? No wonder though that the US is one of the least healthiest nations commensurate with "health" care availability.
phillip galea Ah, out of curiosity, since this toolbox is clearly so lacking in biological and biochemical understanding, I checked. He, "Dr." Peter Osborne, is a chiropractor. LOL No kidding! That is one step below dentist, on the same rung as psychologist. ROFL
FathomsAndJoy FYI chiropractors receive way more education with regard to nutrition and digestion than mainstream medical doctors. This places them on much higher rungs than you might expect.
JuliaGulia1967 Then he would know that a life of cruelty, sickness, death, destruction and disease is not intelligent, right?
See, I refuse to rape and torture others and lie about it. What about you, friend?
The problem is that we cannot get B12 from meat, because it is very deficient in B12. The reason is that the pesticides that enter the soil have destroyed the cobalt (the one mineral needed to break down B12 for absorption into the body.) The pesticides have destroyed most of the vitamins and minerals in the soil. The animals themselves are vitamin/mineral deficient. It is true that if one lived in some tiny remote part of the world which is not bombarded with pesticides, the meat from the grass eating animals would definitely yield a higher rate of B12 than any other source.
But where in the world is that place?!
Otherwise, everything this doctor says is accurate.
LOVE this comment, because in a perfect, natural, PESTICIDE FREE, mass-production free world, and we were all hunting our food for ourselves, it would be really really really easy to get B12. Everything nowadays is laden with unnatural chemicals and pesticides that no matter your diet, you can become deficient.
Biscuits LOL This isn't even a real doctor.
Que tomar para la debilidad corporal. ?
very clear, thank hou very much,
Great video, Dr. Osborne! I´m gluten sensitive (my mother is celiac), have megaloblastic anemia and low platelets (as my mother does), but in the past few years my platelets (and my sister´s) have been decreasing more (down to around 90,000), as well as my B12 levels (used to be more than 500, now around 390). At the same time, homocysteine has been on the rise (from 3 or 4 to 9.7 now) My functional doctor prescribed methylcobalamin (1,000 mg sublingual tablets), but they make me sleepy, too relaxed, even tired. Do you have any tips for a case like this? Thanks in advance!
+Gabriela Dias Check the supplement to rule out the possibility of grain based fillers. Many B12 lozenges contain ingredients that could be causing cross contamination. Generally speaking 1,000 mcg is not enough, and often times 5,000 is required.
Folate, B-6, and B2 deficiency can also cause homocysteine elevations. Checking these vitamins might give you greater insight. You might consider calling my team and asking for a supplement called Ultra SAMe. Take 3/day for 1 month and re-test your homocysteine. (281)-240-2229
All the best!
NatuHealth I'm looking into that! Took the 23andme test and am waiting for results. Thanks so much for the feedback! :-)
NatuHealth will definitely check it out as soon as I get the results -- tks again! :-)
Hello Gabriela, wow, you are cute ! Where you live ? I'm John from North Carolina, please write
Been vegan for over 3 years and healthier than ever... There are plenty of B12 supplements out there for vegans.. . BTW B12 is from microbes in the dirt.. Animals are fed fortified diets and also get it from dirt.. Good video anyways..
exactly. our bodies are designed to eat vegan
Ethan.......Really? Then why do so many vegans need to supplement B12?
now I'm no expert xD but I believe that if you have to take a processed vitamin supplement then no, it's not natural to have that type of diet.
yes !!
i take b12 shots daily
