A report by the …
A report by the WCRF came out recently that discussed some of the issues in the NBN videos, so here’s a link to their research that scientifically furthers your points: dietandcancerreportDOTorg (remove DOT).
To further this …
To further this dialogue about “fake food” I would recommend reviewing Dr. Blaylocks information on MSG and artificial sweeteners and their affect on the body and brain. Google: “Excitotoxins the taste that kills google video”
Hehehe. Not even …
Hehehe. Not even vacteria wanna eat that KRAPPP!
Shes so pretty.
actually, if you …
actually, if you look at quite a LOT of “low fat” yogurts, they have “high fructose corn syrup”, which is REALLY bad for you. you also have the check the ‘calories from fat’ vs. the whole amount of calories in it to see if it is really “half the fat” as they claim. This is not sound try to sound like a smart ass; it just is…
thank you Natalie!
thank you Natalie!

I think that was my favorite one so far, Natalie. You made me lol. “Cuz even THEY don’t wanna eat that stuff” and “contains broccoli.” I’m still laughing. Your message at the end about making the food industry money is really important, too…
…But I have to …
…But I have to ask: what processed foods do you eat? Don’t you spread marmalade on your toast or ANYTHING? And it’s ok to eat fruits and vegetables that are preserved in cans, isn’t it? I mean, I know fresh is better, but even YOU must buy tomato paste, right? I’m not asking to be provocative but because I really think about this a lot. So what do you buy from the middle of the store? Many greetings from Germany!

What’s up man. So how would you suggest someone take B12? Do you know any natural sources, or are pills ok with you?

– answer #1
didn’t I already answer this in my “Vitamins #2″ comment?
Yes, *B12* pills are okay in my POV. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND taking B12 pills/capsules for people trying to avoid animal products totally while also trying to avoid stuff like “vitaminized” cornflakes and other processed stuff. You can obtain B12 pills without any additive chemical crap in them, besides some rice starch or so as filler, which are so small amounts that it’s no deal even if you try to avoid hi-starch foods…

– answer #2
btw, don’t go for algae(products) for B12, like spirulina, they contain mostly inactive form of B12 (wrong atom in the molecule kernel) which our body absorbs just as real B12, but which doesn’t fulfill its purpose… so this kind of stuff, just like some fermented foods (sauerkraut, tempeh, …) and yeast (although some is fortified) that were once reported to be a B12 source, is actually ANTI-B12 in what it does in the body. it occupies the space where active B12 should be!
Cool, good …
Cool, good information. So if you were to be taking a B12 supplement, which one would you choose?
Btw, there are …
Btw, there are capsules made from cellulose (a type of plant fiber) instead of gelatine
especially in the US there are quite some B12 pills without any animal products or preservatives, artificial flavor etc.
I’m an advocate of raw foods, but still recommend B12 pills if you like to avoid animal products. (which, even if it might not classify as “natural”, has proven benefits, at least for the type/forms of preparation of animal products that are usually consumed in civilized world)
I don’t buy into …
I don’t buy into the oldschool “natural hygiene” teachings that there’s nothing in animal products we can’t get EASILY without them. All apes eat at least some insects, even if by accident, and there are studies proving that many insects contain B12, and I see no reason why even the first humans who had not developed hunting techniques & tools should not have eaten insects and worms etc, which are pretty easy to grab in small quantities.
… not to let it …
… not to let it sound like it’s just a guess that we need external B12 sources, doubters might look at veganhealth#org/b12/b12
I can’t say it’s …
I can’t say it’s the best (I don’t know), for it’s the only “close to clean” product that’s available to me ATM, but I use one o fthe B12 pills of “nowfoods”. There are some stabilizing (ie holding together) agents in it (which are explicitly said to be of plant sources), but as far as I can tell nothing too bad. I once had a product of a company named “greenvitamins” from netherlands, which alas went bankcrupt. Their capsules had only 3 or so ingredients ^^
When going totally …
When going totally animal product free, I recommend to have blood tests made maybe every 1..2 years or so, if your chosen products works for you (some B12 tests are useless, be sure that the homocysteine level gets checked for not being to high, which is an indicator of B12 deficiency and can occur even if B12 serum level has OK results…)
I’m vegan since jan …
I’m vegan since jan 2003, no problems so far. Doc even says I have the best blood she’s seen in a while… but bear in mind that for some people B12 liver depots can last over 10 years (for most at least 2..5 years) before it’s all out. Some people need higher doses than others, or have habits that decrease absorption.
(that’s why some …
(that’s why some people have claimed “I need no external B12, say my blood tests!”, well, they didn’t wait long enough… there is an abundance of evidence this isn’t true for the vast majority of humans.)
lol, as a side note, if you’re shipwrecked on an island, you could still eat your feces to have B12, isn’t that yummie?
The funny (well. no …
The funny (well. no) thing is, that microorganisms in our intestines actually produce a considerable amount of B12 – but too low down in the intestine canal where it can’t be absorbed anymore. Which can be circumvented by sending the literal crap through once again. This has been proven to work, where B12 deficient (with symptoms) consenting patiens where given a liqzuid extract of their feces, and after weeks, deficiency symptoms vanished ^^
If there’s a god, he has a strange sense of humor.
lol, that’s funny. …
lol, that’s funny. I’ll remember that survival tactic if I’m ever lost anywhere without my B12 supplement.
You knocked that question out of the waster. I’m vegan too, so I’m concerned as well about getting enough B12. I’m taking Spirulina now, but I’ll take your word for it and get off. That’s stuff is gross anyway. I’ll look up your supplement…thanks…
