  1. B- vitamins (complex) must always be taken all together to avoid imbalance, correct????

    1. I doubt any imbalance will cause problems as most of the B vitamins are in vegetables, milk and eggs – and plentiful at that. They are also water soluble – so it would be hard to overdose if you get them from natural sources. B12 is best taken in pill form or injected – especially injected if you are older. Nothing wrong with a little red meat though. Avoid daily uese of multi-vitamins that have Vitamin A or E as they can be over-stored in the liver.

      1. If you’re not getting enough B vitamins from your diet, which are commonly
        found together in foods (and some B’s are made in the large intestine), taking a
        B complex might be beneficial. When taken in excess the B’s are excreted and not
        stored in the body.
        I always assumed that B-complex vitamins (all 8: B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B7, B9,
        B12) must always be taken in conjunction with all the other B vitamins to
        prevent side effects and deficiencies.
        Single B vitamin supplementation is not generally recommended because the
        functions of the B vitamins are so interrelated. Maybe it would vary from one
        person to another all depending on their level of stress, alcohol consumption,
        pharm drugs, eating processed foods, and the list goes
        on.

          For the many, many people who suffer from all sorts of chronic digestive disorders these days (thanks to antibiotics and genetically altered wheat and other inflammatory foods) like IBS and leaky gut, as well as IBD and other chronic ailments, vitamin deficiencies are numerous–thus, besides a good B-complex vitamin, a sublingual B-12 is needed in addition. It cured me of sudden onset peripheral neuropathy, but was my own healing. My blood test showed that I was ‘not deficient’, though I knew that wasn’t the case. AS the above article states, the numbers that are deemed as acceptable are not always.

    Painful tingling that took place many times a day was the main sign experienced by myself about a year ago. Was highly vitamin 12 deficient. Needless to say other issues arose as well. Luckily we were able to get ahead of this because it felt like torture. Its almost like electricity is being wired into your veins as shockwaves and such. Wouldn’t wish it on anybody.
    Thanks for the article!
    As a small adjunct, a documentary that helped me greatly in finding out much we were missing is this:

    The way we see it, you either can be reactive to health, or proactive. We need to be as proactive as possible because diseases/health issues are more rampant than ever due to an onslaught of issues we are facing from gmos, aspartame, fluoride, fukushima radiation, etc etc etc.
    We can’t afford to be ignorant anymore. Too many issues that affect us and our kin. We can either pay for our health now, via eating healthy organic fresh foods, or we can pay for it later via hospital bills.
    The choice is yours!

    I have read that only *sublingual* vitamin B-12 lozengers (sp?) work like B-12 shots in fighting the above deficiency syndromes.
