Guest guest Posted January 18, 2008 Report Share Posted January 18, 2008 You know, this talk of B-12 at $5.49 makes me wonder if I made the right choice by buying the NewChapter Organics. I know it has the cyano but it was just a short trial but I think I'm going to stay on B-12 for a while. Besides, I don't relish a bottle of synthetics, I prefer food grade ingredients. Would someone adjust my rudder and head me in a new direction, if necessary?

There Website is http://www.ourhealt <http://www.ourhealthcoop.com/> hcoop.com/ GypsyRose Hi , I wanted to respond regarding brain fog because I am always looking for something to clear my head. However, what I am about to suggest doesn't have anything to do with ridding yourself of the funal issues. You can take my suggestions or leave it. It's so often trying this or that to find what works. B-12 has helped me so much over the years that when I got much better, I quit taking it. I was taking B-12 shots. I think not taking it was a big mistake and am just now getting back on it. There are different types of B-12. It is the methylcobalamin form that is found in the brain. Check out www.immunesupport.com for more information on their form of B-12. I actually just ordered their advanced or highest from of various forms of B-12 that is suppost to do a multiple of things including increase mental clarity, energy and even detoxing. It's a bit pricey, but if you don't want to go that route, the plain methylcobalamin is pretty inexpensive. They're all pill form, under the tongue. I got kind of tired of the shots so this is a nice alternative. If your interested, check it out. I have to also say I still like the piracetam. I'd tried it and then stop because it seemed to make me tired. I'm assuming the tireness was a result of that plus other supplements I am taking. I seem to be always looking for the correct balance. Anyway, I went back on it and am only taking a very small amount, 1/4 tsp., but it seems to help clear things somewhat. Egg yolk lecithin is also another supplement I take that is brain friendly. When I go off it, I gradually decend mentally but don't notice it because it's gradual. After awhile I start to wonder what happened to my brain? Oh, yeah! Egg yolk lecthin. Duh! Also, a mineral drink I started taking seems to be sharpening my mental facilities. I've tried two different kinds. One was by TriMedica that I bought from Azure. It says 'just an ounce' 72 delicious colloidal trace minerals, tropical fruit flavor. I have to agree, it is VERY tasty. Recently, I orderd a different brand from ogana. You can get it in a gallon and is considerably less $. Not as tasty, tho. Lugol's iodine. Just went on that, too. Something seems to be working. Although, not what I was before coming down with cfids, there is a clearing happening when taking the above. Oh, I also started back up on the MMS drops, too. It all seems to be working together. But if you don't want to try them all or don't have the dollors, I'd suggest trying the B-12. Most people respond well to adding that to their daily supplements. I also went off gluten. You know, sometimes I think it's more about what we eat or don't eat than other protocols that heal. Thinking about your adrenal problems, you would probably be wise to include the b's as well as C. Take care, Gail > Dear Saul and List Members, > Recently there has been some discussion on the candidaisis list about candida being able to cross the bloof brain barrier and it being a significant cause of mental fog.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2008 Report Share Posted January 18, 2008 Obie, I've been purchasing from OHC for years and have not had a problem with them or their products. I believe they have a good philosophy and quality products. But I honestly don't know any better and could be wrong! I simply believe what they tell me on their website. I used to take their Sublingual B Trio years ago. I'm sure it was before they changed it. I remember stopping it because it amped me up too much. I remember starting with three and then reducing and finally stopping it. I'm inclined to try it again to see how I feel on it now.

Guest guest Posted October 19, 2008 Report Share Posted October 19, 2008 Hi Bee, I'm a little bit confused about taking/buying B vitamins. Because all of the supplements are costing me a lot of money monthly I am searching for ways to get that amount as low as possible. So when I read you can also take Nutritional Yeast Flakes I thought I could order that next time, its 10 times as cheap (!) as the B complex I buy now. But: I understood the 50 mg of all B vitamins were important? I now have a brand which ánd has 50 mg of all prescribed B vitamins ánd has niacine (and not niacinemin or whatever its called). When I should take two tablespoons of the Yeast Flakes per day, there isn't 50 mg of all B vitamins in it and I read that these Flakes have been growing on molasses. They contain lots of carbs when you are on a low carb diet. So why are they allowed? I took Yeast Flakes 20 years ago and remember they taste very well, so it would be a nice addition to my food. But I'm worried if I'm doing the right thing when I order these Flakes next time, although it would be nice to spend less money on this, because I have to keep to this diet for a long time and 150 dollars a month is almost too much... Can you shine some light on this? thank you for answering! hugs *************************************************************** I don't think that is a good vitamin B complex because the idea is to get all the Bs to be balanced at 50mg each. On some jars it will say Balanced 50 Complex or something like that. Hope that helps! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nutritional Yeast Flakes contain protein and other vitamins besides B vitamins, which all work together better than taking only B complex supplements, so you don't need the exact milligrams you'd need to take in a supplement form. +++You only need to take 1 tabls. of Nutritional Yeast Flakes in water twice a day, along with 50 mg Niacin (B3) supplement twice a day.
