Guest guest Posted January 7, 2004 Report Share Posted January 7, 2004 Dr Baker in MInn, according to his website, does only proximal rnys. The proximal rny as we know is done somewhat differently by different surgeons. Dr. Baker's " study " is likley only on his own patients. Who knows how he does his rny's? and therefore how their absorbtion of various is affected. The B12 level numbers before, during and after the study DO matter. The health of the sample group matters. The number of people studied matters. Their genders matter. How long they were studied matters. The other pathological conditions each had also matters greatly. There are many variables that could skew the study greatly. I would suggest Ray give out the url to Dr. Baker's " study " so that anyone interested can read it, see HOW he proceeded, and decide whether his study has validity for his or her very YMMV bodies.

He found that taking it orally produced better results. The shots caused lots of peaks and valleys and left the patient nearly depleted by the time of the next shot. >> >> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
