- Are you feeling tired, weak, or experiencing tingling in your fingers and toes? You may be one of the millions of people who are deficient in vitamin B12. In this video, we'll explore everything you need to know about this crucial nutrient.
Vitamin B12 is a water-soluble vitamin that plays a vital role in many bodily functions, including red blood cell production, DNA synthesis, and nerve function. It's found naturally in animal products like meat, fish, and dairy, and is also available as a supplement.
Unfortunately, many people don't get enough vitamin B12 from their diet and may be at risk of deficiency. This is particularly true for vegetarians and vegans, as well as older adults and those with certain medical conditions.
In this video, we'll cover the signs and symptoms of vitamin B12 deficiency, how to get tested for deficiency, and the different forms of vitamin B12 supplements. We'll also discuss the importance of proper absorption and dosage and provide tips for incorporating more vitamin B12-rich foods into your diet.
If you're concerned about your vitamin B12 levels or simply want to learn more about this essential nutrient, be sure to watch this video. Don't forget to like and subscribe to our channel for more informative videos about health and wellness!

These dudes offer advice in an easy to digest manor, with a little humour thrown in as well.
I was recently diagnosed with a B12 deficiency and getting B12 injections have made a huge difference. I have not felt this good in years.
What is the name of your Vit. B12 injection? And what is the dosage?
Pre-workout c4 had a lot of b12 you can find it with the energy drinks its like liquid candy without the sugar
I was having such bad panic attacks, that they would literally bring me down to my knees. I was withdrawing from doctor prescribed antidepressants. It was a literal hell. Anyways, my integrative medicine doctor told me to do sublingual B12 and lemon balm. It worked miracles for me in my life. I also have ADD and she suggested I do B12 for my ADD as well. It helps a ton. Deficiencies cause horrible emotional and mental health problems. Instead of getting to the core issues of mental health problems, by doing a simple blood draw… many doctors are medicating their patients with “medications” that cause even more deficiencies. I always say God gave us everything we need in Mother Earth. God please bless and heal everyone here!!
Thanks for sharing
Good to know
Yeah those antidepressants have a ton of problems. And the withdrawal is torture.
I'm going through that any suggestions
@@jaychulo5905 I am so sorry you’re going through this. You’re never alone with your suffering. It truly will be ok. Please eat a lot of fruits and vegetables. Your body needs nourishment now more than ever, to be able to heal. Drink plenty of water. If you can see a function medicine provider. Number one most important thing for me to live through my whole ordeal was having God. You can get through it. Please be gentle with yourself and be patient with the process. This too shall pass. God please bless, heal and protect you!!❤️🙏🏼
LOVE your videos. The information mixed with humor is the best!
Glad you like them!
Hi Docs, I use a sublingual 2,500 mcg B-12 every other day. Doctors orders. Just another item added to my list for being a geriatric. Growing old is not fun. Yeah, I know about the alternative. But my brain thinks I’m young and wants to do the things I can’t do anymore. Well, the good news is my brain is still young. May it stay that way for a long time. 🙋♂️
For sure James!
My brain is still young. Whole plant based diet for 44 years. 12 years vegan.
At 76 i am in perfect health. Mentally and Physically.
No B12 or any other supplements.
@@herbbowler2461 Good for you. Sounds like you’ll live to a ripe old age.
@@jamesec1949
I don't know.
But i not going suffer unnecessarily like so many.
Still strong and healthy at 76.
😁...SAME. I am Old (68 yrs old!) BUT my brain thinks I'm Young! I want to do the things I ALWAYS used to do too! Including dancing😎 and lots of yard work! It's sad and irritating that my body chose to slow down and develop physical limitations!!#DANG!😜
The comedy just makes the great info so easy to remember. Thanks you two
Our pleasure!
Wow!👍😃 You two are Great Teachers. I really like to go back on the video many times for learning and fun. Love the video❤👍😌
Hello Docs! I must say I had to subscribe, I began watching because of a tear in my hip labrum and impingement as well. I love how much great information are in your videos and how you add some fun to it. Thank you!
I take a liquid in a dropper is probiotic fermented B-Complex of B1, 2,3,B6, B12 & Folate by Premier Research Labs.
Great product that was recommended by a Homeopathic Medicine Dr, I felt so sick and she did a test that showed I was depleted of minerals, I began a regimen of minerals and green smoothies and staying away from meats only ate chicken, but not always and wow even fibromyalgia stopped acting up, lost weight and was feeling awesome, then went back to eat things I shouldn't, some issues began again, but I'm starting again and making it my lifestyle of way of eating healthy.
Thanks again for all the information you provide to educate people.
Love the video guys!
Thanks so much!
@@TalkingWithDocs So... Dose promoting b12 mean your bought and paid for?
Just wondering if there are b12 production that don't involve human waste.
It seems production could skim human waste for material that is then processed and sold, seems by you guys.
You guys are great, thanks for what you do in a fun way. 😊
Thanks for watching!
Excellent video. Thanks for being informed on nutrition. Love it!
Glad you enjoyed it!
A brilliant and informative video. Many thanks, Docs
Glad it was helpful!
Excellent video - very informative. Thank you for this video, truly!
Glad it was helpful James
Thanks Docs, you guys are the best!
Thanks so much Dorene!
Docs! You guys are doing great job! Love to see medical professionals willing to share the information in how to keep our bodies healthy and look for for signs of when we need to get checked up by specialist! Thank you!
Welcome. Trying to keep people healthy.
Oh my word.... you guys are SO MUCH FUN!!! You had me chuckling throughout this video. You make learning fun!
My levels were found to be low a couple of years ago - I kid you not, I was dragging myself around. No energy - nada. My Doc fixed it with a week of injections and now I’m permanently on tablets - thank you for the vids xx
Thanks for sharing!
Yes been taking that for years....Thanks Docs!!! I come here for the comedy as much as the advice !!!
That’s good to know!
@@TalkingWithDocs
Doctor, I have mild anemia
Is a vitamin B12 and iron supplement sufficient for recovery?
Great info with the delightful amount of humor
My favorite Docs always brings good news I appreciate you guys ❤
We love you too Gigi!
B12 is great for tinnitus also, im taking 30,000 mcg/day and within 24 hrs my ringing is about 50% less!! it heals all types of nerve pain...
Humming therapy cures tinnitus
@@serg1990SM but im very low on b12 so it didnt cure my tinnitus
@Lauren-vd4qe you could also need some iron... eat some greens!!
@@suzannen.6403 I take iron 2 or 3 times a week.
30,000 is extremely high. How are you know?
Love you two for your advice and humour 💕
Thanks Teresa
You guys are the best! Appreciate all your videos.
Our pleasure Mark. Thanks so much
Hey docs! It’s so nice to talk about health and vitamins and medication, it’s so important to know about it.. we are in charge of our own health 😊
You sure are Alida
Thank you for educating me on the direct relationship of B12 and dosage. I now because of you both am more motivated to redirect my life and efforts to a healthier lifestyle. Like Dr. Zalzal I don't wish to give meat up totally but once a week will be an immensely better. Have a great day.
Wonderful!
Yes ,years ago .I found myself struggling with chronic fatigue on another level.After months ,finally discovered a B12 deficiency After a couple weeks on a supplement I suddenly felt this surge of high energy again..The difference was amazing!
Sweet
It would take a lot longer than couple of weeks. It may take months.
@@samkitty5894took me 2 weeks to bounce back
@@Istso-ob5jdI purchased Nature Made Gummys. Delicious and you have to chew them. What a huge difference they've made in my energy level
@@Istso-ob5jdb12 is b12 😂
Thank you for this video
I am a trainee Dr in Uni and I’ve come off my SNRI having withdrawal have a low weight don’t eat lots of meat I like chicken been told iron and b12 is slightly low so I’m sorting these out now I understanding
Thank you for this video!!
Wow! Love you guy and thank you so much,God bless you for ever .
I started watching when I realized I needed a hip replacement. I learned a lot before and after my surgery. Good content here. Thanks
Thanks Debbie. Hope the hip is doing well
@@TalkingWithDocs It is surprisingly. Exactly 2 weeks after the pain subsided. Its all going smooth now. And I'm 71 just for reference. Healthy and not overweight. I even lost 10 lbs before hoping to make for an easier recovery. 😃
B12 deficiency and the possibility of a stroke? Scary stuff. Thanks for the warning!
It sure is. And easy to address
Another great video presentation. Thank you very much for enlightening us.... the viewers!!
Our pleasure!
I am impressed you answer questions. I have a cold nose and face a lot even when inside temp is 72 or so. I am a type 2 diabetic and use Keto to control it and 80 years old it’s good now. I read low b12 and also poor circulation and diabetes could be causes. I take alpha logic acid 600 per day so after 20 years no neuropathy. It has been a journey to figure this out and Doctors have been a disappointment. You two are a blessing!
Why thank you. Glad you have found something that works for you and appreciate you sharing it with the other viewers. All the best
Don’t forget about the effect that Lyme disease has on decreasing B12 levels, among other markers. About a year after being bitten by a deer tick, I had a whole assortment of symptoms that were on the checklist. One nasty one was panic attacks. When I checked with my doctor he coincidentally gave me a b12 shot because my levels were low. Shortly afterwards, I felt so relaxed that I knew I could not get a panic attack so long as I felt this way, and I was good for a few days. But that physical distress crept back up and the attacks happened again. I then found out that it’s a water soluble vitamin and it can be excreted through urin and sweat within a couple of days. I told my doctor that I needed more and he told me to get a B12 supplement at the drug store. After I took the required dose, I felt nothing like the effect I got from the shot. I kept upping and upping the dose but still nothing and the panic attacks continued. After further research, I found out that the version that I was using was cyanocobalamin, and that had to be processed by the small intestine and liver to make it an active form for use by the body. Some people may not be able to break it down. and sometimes it’s destroyed by stomach acid before it even gets to the small intestine. I then learned that there are active forms of B12: primarily methylcobalamin, and hydroxycobalamin. Once I tried those, I immediately felt that same response that I had to the shot. I had to feel my may to the right dosage level (overdoing it also created an anxiety response), but once I figured it out, I never had another panic attack again. My doctor was convinced that it was a placebo effect, but I debunked that because I would a have believed that I was cured after the first supplement, but I knew that I wasn’t. He then argued that people don’t have panic attacks from B12 deficiency. Perhaps he’s right normally, but the spirochete Bacteria of Lyme can effect people neurologically, and low B12 is one of the markers. I can’t help but wonder that if the B12 supply for the bacteria is getting low that they might trigger a neurological response.
In hindsight, I realize that my final conjecture is medically naive and unfounded, but could there be a symptomatic response that is particular to the combination of Lyme and low B12?
Interesting
# Astounded
Shame on your doctor!!!
Low B12 in and of itself can cause demyelination of the peripheral nerves and create all kinds of neurological problems. Look up Pernicious anemia. Taking all the oral B12 supplementation in the world won’t raise the level if you have PA. You no longer produce intrinsic factor which breaks down B12 for absorption by the small intestine. Only injectable forms of B12 will do the job. And you cannot take too much because it’s water soluble and your body excretes what it doesn’t need. PA is an autoimmune disorder.
Lyme is a very nasty disease. Many drs don’t even know how to test for it properly. It can change your life if not treated right away.
If you have been bitten by any tick and know it, get to the Dr right off. Protocol says 30 days of Doxycycline. It’s very interesting to me how Lyme and PA both can wreak so much havoc on the body and in some of the very same ways. One of the problems some people have had from the Covid shot are neurological and some are vaccine injured permanently. I wish they would disclose the common denominator. Someone must know in the medical/scientific world.
The two of you make learning all of the important medical stuff so much fun. The "light comedy" helps me to remember the message that you're giving us, too! Thank you so much. 💚😊💚
Very welcome Pamela
They really do 😍
Good night doc. I notice am not sweating for a very long time now and I don't know what is the problem. Sometimes I am so hot I don't know what to do what caused that
Thanks Docs ...very informative information. 👍
Glad it was helpful!
This was so informative! Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
This is why I love and respect Doctors!
You guys are serving humanity..
The two great Amigos 👍
Thanks Zeeman
Very awesome information.I do B12 injections myself I order them from my doctor I do them once a week. There was a couple of points in this video that I had no idea that it like a B12 would do. I had my red blood cells were smaller or something like that so even though it looked like I had plenty of B12 I did not. So I concur with you and the fact that we have less hydrochloric acid to break down vitamins in certain things that’s why I take the shot. I am so glad that you docs are also into health and nutrition. Keep up the good work!!💃💃💃💃💃👍🥰
Definitely acknowledge the power of food and supplements rather than just medication
B12 deficiency can result in Pernicious Anemia caused by enlarged red blood cells that don't function as well.

Great Stuff! Thanks 🙏🏻🌹🙏🏻
Thank you for your advice and care 🤗
Excellent video 👍👌
So nice of you Elisabeta
These videos are extremely valuable. Concise and yet comprehensive. Plus, they are very watchable. Production value is low but the entertainment and information value is high.
Hi Les. Sorry about the production value. We are busy operating most of the time 😀
@@TalkingWithDocs No apologies necessary.
Thanks Les!
I love you guys. You are so helpful and cheerful. I’ve learned a lot watching your videos that help me STOP WORRYING (I have a lot of anxiety) about all the awful things that could happen to me. I have a lovely doctor or my own, who sees me whenever I ask, sometimes just for reassurance, but watching your multi episode advisories about all kinds of things that I forget to ask, has really helped me understand a lot of things that I never ask questions about. I also like that you enjoy your work so much and how much fun you have making these videos for us. You guys are a terrific team. Thank you Thank you Thank you. ♥️
They sure have helped me in the same way!😇😇😇💕
You are so welcome. We do love it and feel like it has been helping a lot of people which feels great
I so agree with this comment! Your videos have sure helped me through my surgeries, and having questions answered that I hadn’t thought of! Thank you again! Love ya Doc’s!
Mona. you are blessed to have a doctor who cares. There too few.
They are the best 😁
Thanks you, very informative video, covering all aspects.
So nice of you
Very pertinent, thanks so much.
You're very welcome
Yes, I like this video. I have all those symptoms, but I also don't sleep through the night, so...I am glad you explained about why it's important to take B12. Maybe now I will be more consistent. BTW, my doctor told me to "eat more chicken" to increase my levels. My naturopath said get a bottle of it, but when I told her it is hard for me to absorb it, then she suggested the sublingual kind. We really are in charge of our own health. White Coat Black Art on CBC mentioned overweight as the only condition you are sent home from the doctor's office without help. That has got to change, too.
Agree totally
Thanks, Docs. My grandmother was a ward clerk (many years ago they were called that) and the docs would give her B-12 shots every now and then to give her a lot more energy. She felt so good and energized.
Injections are also a good choice
I remember ward clerks as a new nurse!😊
Great videos! Thank you. Can you keep the text up on the screen a bit longer please? That would be helpful. Thanks!
@@paulinehewak6245 I pause the video to read the text.

You guys are awesome and my new favorites. I know a little about nutrition, you are spot on and I am learning a lot keep up. MAD RESPECT FROM EAST LONG BEACH 💯
Yeah East Lonf Beach! Welcome aboard Steve
B12 has been a MIRACLE vitamin for me. I take 5,000 mcgs of sublingual Methylcobalamin B12 every day. Doing this has prevented my horrific Trigeminal Neuralgia (VERY painful facial nerve disorder that’s nicknamed “The Suicide Disease) from returning. It’s been almost three years since I’ve had any symptoms of TN! And I was scheduled for a MVD (brain surgery) right after I had started taking it. Needless to say, I cancelled the surgery!
Wow that’s amazing. Thanks for sharing
Where do you get your sublingual Methylcobalamin? I have only seen the Cyanide one.
@@ronbloomberg Well there are many brands of it you can take. I happen to take this one: Solgar Methylcobalamin Sublingual Vitamin B12 -- 5000 mcg I take this every morning with an occasional 5-6 day break every month. Just make SURE it's the SUBLINGUAL form and that it's Methylcobalamin--NOT the Cyanocobalamin one. :)
@@ronbloomberg I used Source Naturals brand sublingual 5mg, to heal my foot drop. At first, I took it every six hours, since I found out you pee out your B vitamins, in six hours. After it healed my myelin sheaths, I went to one sublingual a day. Never stopped. Year 2000, to now.
Another great supplement, for me, is gingko biloba, 40 milligrams, a day. My migraines went away. Year 2000, also. If I don't take it, every day, I start having headaches, again.
I knew I wouldn’t have to read far into the comments to find a miracle testimony.
I knew because I was suffering as recently as five days ago and since four days ago I’ve been taking sublingual B 12 and it changed everything. I’m 61 sleeping much better and feel very good now since starting B12 sublingually. I knew enough to stumble into the sublingual bottle of B12 on the shelf at the store. High dosage. I’m asking myself is this real? Yes, it is.
Every day I’m waking up in the morning, waiting to open my eyes and not feel good as this was long the case, very long , however, every day since I feel good, absolutely fine.
Dissolving under the tongue is the magic portal for the magical vitamin.
I agree with so many others that you are super informative while at the same time you inject just the right amount of humour.
Glad you think so!
Love the information and love you guys ❤❤❤❤❤
Our pleasure!
I've been taking B12 for a while, but didn't know I should chew it instead of swallowing whole. That behavior is now changed. Thanks.
Best advice is to check the bottle as some pills have been manufactured differently to allow swallowing. Follow the instructions
This is serious stuff. At age 54 I started having numbness in my fingers and then toes. Within a week I had no feeling total hands and feet. Went straight away to Urgent Care. They could not believe how numb I was after sticking me with sterile needles ( my eyes were closed ), I felt nothing. Was sent for nerve conduction studies, definite bad news. I had blood drawn for all kinds of things, sent to a neurologist, MRI, on and on. I got so weak, had very low energy, could barely walk. I was having terrible burning , searing pain in hands and feet. Major zaps and jolts through my body out of nowhere. I could not look down without setting off terrible zaps of pain. I literally felt like I might be dying. Who knew? I WAS dying. A change of Dr and I was told exactly that! I had a B12 blood level of 6 which is basically zero. Not once did any of the previous drs I had seen even think to do a simple B12 level in all the labs that were drawn. Turns out I have pernicious anemia which is a rare autoimmune disease. B12 is essential for many things, one being forming red blood cells in the bone marrow. This results in misshapen red cells which cannot carry adequate O2….hence the weakness. All my organs were compromised. My MMA and homocysteine levels went sky high which is dangerous. My peripheral nerves demyelinated which resulted in all the zaps. It’s then like live wires touching each other, myelin is the covering for those nerves. My body does not make Intrinsic factor which is necessary to break down B12 for absorption. So I have to self inject cobalamin every 3 weeks to keep me functioning. As a result of the severity of the situation and the delayed diagnosis I also have permanent nerve damage which means my hands and feet feel like they are on fire. To shut that pain off I have to take large amounts of gabapentin which has its own side effects. I tell all middle aged women to ask for a B12 level to be done. The liver itself stores enough B12 for 2-3 years ahead so I must have had this for years.
I am now 72 and 2 weeks postop from a total knee replacement which is rough. But I would have 5 more of these surgeries as compared to what I went through 18 years ago.
I wish these 2 great docs would have explained that not everyone can supplement with B12 by mouth or sublingual. I really enjoy their videos ( and humor).
Doctors on the net never tell the true story about B12 deficiency or they don't know the serious damage that can be done. None of them ever say it can kill.
@@toni4729 You are so correct in this statement. My experience has shown me that many of the young drs have no understanding or training in this issue. Pretty sad!
Does sublingual b12 help you, or just the injections?
@@coryg4553 just the injections. We tried sublingual too. Thanks for asking.
@@Mtnmamma5251 thank you for the reply back and thank you for sharing your story

Ok sounds good
Great information!
Glad it was helpful Nancy
I’m vegan and over 50 yrs old. I guess I should get it checked! Thank you for this information!❤
You should!
It's not a diet thing. b12 is not mad by plants or animals...it's made by bacteria. Everyone should get it checked out. Animals are supplemented by b12, so let's cut out the middleman and take the supplement directly :)
Go plant-based! God said, "I have given you every plant with seeds on the face of the earth and every tree that has fruit with seeds. This will be your food."
Genesis 1:29
He also described what animals you could eat.
@@darith770 God also allowed us to eat animals
Another great video, thanks Docs. What do you think of collagen peptides? Does it help with joint pain? Thanks
Hi Peche. That is on our list of supplements to review. The science is slightly weak.

I would be interested to hear you on lymphomas, being a non-Hodgkin Folicular lymphoma patient, who has just relapsed after 9 years. Thank you. Love your presentations, and I think they provide a ton of very useful information. Phin

That's weird. I was just coming in here after dinner to check my computer while dusting some nutritional yeast off the front of my shirt and I see this video pop up. Great info! Esp for those of us who don't eat much or any meat. I didn't know you couldn't get enough from diet and things like the nutritional yeast. Will have to get mine checked out. You're my own personal Jesus. ☺
Glad it helps. Make sure the nutritional yeast is fortified at a minimum
@@TalkingWithDocs A Doctor on another channel says unfortified nutritional yeast is better because during fortification the yeast is compromised. Now I’m confused. Please explain.
b12 is made from a bacteria (it's not a plant or animal corpses thing...that animals that used to be alive was supplemented with b12, so why not cut the "middleman" and take it directly). In the older days, we would eat plants that had traces of dirt (b12). but now we live in a sanitized modern society. Easy solution: just take a b12 supplement.
I’ll be 56 ! I have been feeling low. In energy! I eat. Fruit.everyday!! You two are hit for doctor’s. Thank you !😊
Wow thank you
So eating the fruit has helped alleviate your low energy or has contributed to it?
Very cool information. Thank-you.
Glad it was helpful!
Another great topic here❤
Glad you think so!
Thank you! Hopefully it will become the norm for all Doctors to recommend B12 for those of us over 50. I know the damage a deficiency can do! I think lots of people think they are "just getting old" when in fact it is a B12 deficiency.
Yes it’s a big part of it
I asked my doctor a few years ago, and he did a soft reject like we have to check the levels first, but we never did ( is it paid in On ?). Maybe a good idea to explain our rights as patients, and its not easy to change the doctor.
Always assumed swallowing B12 was good to go. Thanks for this important info.
Glad it was helpful! Always check the instructions on the bottle
@@TalkingWithDocs Unfortunatley the Jamieson B12 bottle only states: "Take 1 tablet daily. Store between 15C and 25C, away from children.

Thanks, Doc! You guys are great!
What if you took a skin test and found out you are highly allergic to nickel and cobalt? Do you still recommend taking a B12 supplement? Thanks so much!
That’s a great question. We all need it so you probably would still take it. It usually doesn’t apply to this kind of thing - more a skin reaction. Maybe talk to your allergist
I am so thankful to find you guys! I subscribed since you are plant based! YAY!
Yay! Thank you!
I don't just like your videos...I LOVE them!!!
That’s awesome!
Yes I do take it everyday.
Good call Evelyn
Thanks so much for excellent information! I take a B-complex tablet, but now I will look for sublingual b-12 for better absorption.
Glad it was helpful!
I believe Solgar. Makes B12 sub lingual supplement. Its a good brand.
You guys may have solved the problems that my daughter is having with this video! she has been to many doctors and they cant seem to figure our what is wrong with her but the symptoms in this video are the same as she has so hopefully this is it! thanks
Get tested!

Thank you doctors,for sharing this video with load of information of vitamin B12. 💕 love the funny side of comedy from both of you to lightning up our mood.
It would be great that Dr Weening speaks a bit slower and appreciated more if there is a chart summary of important factor so that people like myself can quickly save it on our device while watching utube but can also look back at information after watching this clip.
Good advice. Will try and slow down!
methylcobalamin is the type your body prefers. most people can use cyano, but if your body has issues with converting it, best to take methyl.
Thank you Doctors for this valuable information on B12 I have been taking B12 for 40 years now. My boyfriend when I was young was a weight lifter and a Mr. California. He took the shots all the time so I wanted them too and here I am now. I feel great nd have all kind of energy too....Thank you and God Bless you both.
Nice Donna
Go plant-based! God said, "I have given you every plant with seeds on the face of the earth and every tree that has fruit with seeds. This will be your food."
Genesis 1:29
My doc recently started me on B12 1000 mcg, as I'm ethical vegetarian senior and have high blood pressure and anemia. So thanks for this video 'splaining stuff. 😃 Wondering today if vitamins should be kept in the fridge during the heat wave now.
I am a vegan B12 taker😅. I'm glad one of you guys is a plant based eater
"You are in charge of your own health".
Those words are SO important for everyone. You saying that constantly in your videos opened my eyes.
Nobody will care if you don't care and taking your advice, I exercise a lot more, mainly walking 15k steps a day, cut out junk and overeating and have lost a stone in 5 weeks.
Feel much better and I thank you guys for your advice and care.
Thank you!
That’s awesome Connor!
“…carry the one…”😂. I appreciate your expertise and sense of humor.
We always carry the one! Thanks for watching
Very educational!
Thanks!
Pernicious anemia runs in my family and when I was deficient I had tremors and all types of awful symptoms. I take a sublingual every night. Thank you for this video.
Very welcome. Thanks for sharing
I know you guys are so funny I’ve been just swallowing mine so I guess I better chew it from now on I’m glad I watch the video thanks guys
Have a look at the instructions on your bottle.
Really good information!! Amazing waht issues a person can have by not getting enough. Is there toxicity issues if you take too much? (I was thinking B vitamins are water soluble?)
There are but are more theoretical than practical. Yes out the urine
@@TalkingWithDocs ah, ok, thank you for the answer.
