    What he said about a need for frequent if not daily intake of B12 contradicts what I have seen in other sources. Is B12 storable or not? The expert opinions I'm familiar with say it is. I just checked the wiki and B12 is listed as water soluble so that should make it hard to store. I'm not a vegetarian, I'm just confused by the contradictory information I have seen.

    If you are deficient, which something like 70 percent of the population is, it's not easy to maintain b12 stores. Also you can't really have too much if you're frequently taking the recommended dose so it wont hurt but if you want to be sure testing is a good idea. Just be aware you can have high serum B12 and technically still be deficient in B12 because for those who've developed methyl traps through high consumption of folic acid at any point in life your body can't always get it in to the cell.

    Please simplify many of your rates to fewer accurate consistent suggestions, including adjustments & ranges; that are accurate with minimal assumptions. Many of your rate suggestions result in great variations in amounts/dosages, possibly leading to insufficient or excessive amounts; such as your multiple per meal suggestions, very confusing & inconsistent; just give overall rates (like per time period) (with any adjustment ranges) that people can apply/adapt to their practices, including how to figure, combine, or divide up. I definitely favor that you use rates, which are much better & more adaptable, than fixed amounts (which so many people use & that is disappointing to me since requires many assumptions that may not be correct that it can be unhealthy for some people while healthy for others. Basically rates allow better adaptation to more people & cases/conditions.) So keep up with rates recommendations, just keep accurate & consistent with minimum assumptions (rates & recommendations that account for more cases/conditions/practices/periods).

    Doing a low processes food ketogenic diet rich in animal proteins with skin on bone in meats, mostly red meats.. This ensured you can absorb the food entering your body well. Carb rich diets need more b vit as so much is wasted..not to mention meds waste as well. What's not eaten is a huge benefit. Fatty meat, liver. No veggies are necessary but if you do, eat ones that dont have gluten or other reactive properties inflicting symptoms on you. Tight junctions in gi tract are necessary to be healed for beat absorption. Folate in natural meat based sources. Keto on🖖

    Through habit, it will start coming together for you. You remember how many grams to tablespoons, etc. You will also start to be able to "eye" it because you are doing this so often. Only once in awhile will you measure to check yourself. It takes time but, it does happen. I was frustrated in the beginning too. Make conversion charts of common things you need to know & put it on the fridge for easy access. Making the chart will help imprint the conversions to your memory as well.

    In the video after this you seem to imply fixing B2 deficiency would go a long way in fixing methylation problems and for example lowering homocysteine levels with persons that have them elevated, or maybe I just misunderstood that other video and what is needed is all the things mentioned in this video? The food advice is nice, but I would bet unrealistic for 90% of the population. I live in Europe and don't eat junk food, but still never in my life gone to a farmers market and I don't think there even is any here. Also I haven't eaten liver in 40 years and am not about to start if I can avoid it. If the food suggestions are unrealistic to me, I bet they will be even more so to the average American so supplementation is probably the only way the average person without a lot of money and a personcal cook can manage these issues. It's also not worth eating 5 eggs a day to increase your cholesterol and elevate all cause mortality risk, just to fix another issue.

You typically won't have too many issues with a standard diet higher in B vitamins.

    Having moderately high amounts of methylated vitamins should take the pressure off your body and save its methylation capacity for other processes. I'm no physician, but from what I've been reading, you should avoid synthetic vitamins in cheap multivitamins and fortified foods that require methyl donation to be processed. So plenty of nutrient dense animal products and fortified foods as well as a methylated vitamin B complex, probably one with moderate B9 and B12 and not the extremely high doses you see a lot of the time. At least that's what I'm doing.

    Regarding how frozen vegetables is not ideal.. I've always heard that they're harvested at the peak of ripeness and frozen immediately, so not many nutrients are lost compared to anything under florescent lights found in supermarkets. Why no frozen-food love? Regarding how one should only soak beans/legumes only if sensitive.. and the water should not be discarded.. aren't lectins/phytates often cited as "anti-nutrients"? Also, if you consume phytates , does this mean you won't absorb as much of it's nutrients, or can it actually lower the nutrient absorption above and beyond what's in the beans/legumes? www.stephanguyenet.com/two-things-ive-changed-my-mind-about-part-ii-phytic-acid/ Also if B-12 (Laver/Nori/Shiitake) is difficult to absorb in one sitting, in general, since intermittent-fasting is so popular these days (especially the 23:1), what other absorption issues are likely to occur if eating only one meal a day?

    Folate is not stable in frozen veggies: kzread.info/dash/bejne/ZmGBqZeOesTgdsY.html Phytate is broken down by soaking, not leached. If eating one meal a day you should have a day's worth of B12 at it. All nutrients are better absorbed when spread out, but B12 is particularly important and zinc is another one.
