what are your nutrition credentials? do you have any? active b12 is not found exclusively in animals. b12 is a coenzyme. not a vitamin. its produce by cyanobacteria in the soil and water. traditionally plants and water had plenty of b12 for nutritional needs. the body requires a TINY amount of b12 a day. 2.5 micrograms. 6 micrograms is recommended.
Luckily, vitamin B12 is made by bacteria and doesn’t need to be obtained from animal products. phew! just like all nutrition, all essential nutrients are only produced by plants and the rest are synthesized endogenously within our bodies. all nutrients coming from animals, only make them from the plants they eat down the food chain. phew. thank you biochemistry! https://veganhealth.org/vitamin-b12/?utm_content=buffer8426c&utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook.com&utm_campaign=buffer
can i ask u this... if human are b12 deficient from not eating animals which only get b12 from eating grass and vegetables which bioaccumulate b12 from the cyanobacteria in the water and soil, then how are we deificient, but the animals are not?? the answer is partially due to analogues.
the truth of clinical science is that the animals are deficient as well. because we've stripped the bacteria from the soil and water via processing and filtration, and poor farming methods. thats why they have to supplement animals with b12.
recommending people eat eggs and dairy is incredibly irresponsible. putting people's health at risk of the worlds LEADING CAUSE of death, heart disease, stroke, diabetes, cancer, renal failure, and more, all caused by animal foods. ESPECIALLY EGGS, AND DAIRY are the absolute worst sources of endocrine toxicity via biomagnification of toxins up the food chain in animal fat and eggs have the most cholesterol of any animal food. a single egg a week increases the risk of heart disease SIGNIFICANTLY. doesnt matter if its raw or cooked, organic or free range, they cannot LEGALLY be marketed as "SAFE, HEALTHY, NUTRITIOUS ETC" the american egg board has been sued a number of times for trying to market eggs using these words and they cant because its false advertising based on all the clinical science.
. often omnivores in the most recent studies on b12 have been more susceptiple to deficiency than vegans, simply for the fact that most vegans are aware of proper nutritional supplementation by now, and omnivores largely arent.
otherwise accurate microbiome gut/brain axis info. youve got a ways to go on nutritional science of animal foods tho. peace
