Re: OT Supplement Question

If

you are feeling “icky” since starting this particular supplement,

then stop it – trust in your body’s signals. I can’t

tell you how many bottles of supplements I’ve had to toss, simply because

my body won’t accept it regardless of it containing no illegals and is

something that is supposed to be helpful. In your case, with this

particular supplement, I’d not try it based on the ingredient list you

included.

You

should be able to find a B12 supplement using other sources, such as cyanacobalamin

or methylcobalamin. Or use whole food sources unless your body is

lacking the intrinsic factor to extract it (as mine does) and/or your digestion

can’t cope yet with too much, in which case an injection would be more

beneficial. Quite often people only need B12 injections temporarily; once

their gut ecology improves they’ll be able to successfully synthesize B12

from food sources.

I

didn’t do a lot of research just now, but I did come across a number of

sources that question the evidence to support B12 sources that are plant-based

or yeast-based. S.

cerevisiae is

a yeast, as you know.

But

I’d pay attention to your body’s signals the most, even if the

supplement or food contains nothing illegal or questionable.

Well,

I wish I understood more about it. I've been kind of 'ick' the last

two-three days. I'm not taking them again. Probably never look at b00r,

br00d or anything like that the same again.

So this doesn't look like b12 or

iron from beetroots to me. Could this be why I've been so nauseas

and sick the last two days or would it have shown up before this?

I've been taking it since April 20-something.

Absolutely. Brewer's yeast and other nutritional yeasts aren't legal. I'd

stop the supplement at once.

Sacchromyces Boulardii (s. boulardii) is legal.
