Vitamin B12 is important for brain function and the synthesis of red
blood cells. The metabolism of every cell in the body depends on
vitamin B12, as it plays a part in the synthesis of fatty acids and energy
production.
Vitamin B12 (cobalamin) was discovered in the first half of the 20th
century. A vast amount of information on the role of vitamins in
human health and disease became available. Recently, the breathtaking
pace of development in research technology has changed our
understanding of the role of nutrients and the complex interaction
between diet, environment and disease.
This book represents a practical solution to cure vitamin B12 through
a vegetarian diet and breaking various myths on vitamin B12 and also
talks about why vitamin B12 deficiency becomes more common.
Day by day vitamin B12 deficiency became more common. In every
home one person may be suffering from this condition. Even school
going children also know about it. Most of the articles on vitamin B12
say vegetarian and vegan people have to depend on multivitamin
tablets or injections to maintain a good level of vitamin B12.
They are constantly bombarded with a lot of content and a lot of
research articles say that you can get more vitamin B12 from non-
vegetarian food. If it was the truth then non-vegetarian people never
have to suffer from vitamin B12 deficiency. But it’s not true. In my
clinical practice, I have seen non-vegetarian people also have vitamin
B12 deficiency.
Actually, you get scared by reading articles and ads that constantly
force you to take supplements. Your diet is not enough.
So open your eyes. In our ancestors, they never heard of this deficiency,
though they live a healthy and long life. Today we have “germ phobia”
and we use chemicals to get rid of bacteria everywhere.
You may have a question right if a plant-based diet is natural then how
do vegan people suffer from vitamin B12 deficiency?
The answer is in a more natural world; we would get vitamin B12
through organic fruits and vegetables straight off the farm or through
water from ponds, rivers or other natural sources of drinking water.
Nature always has provisions for us to get enough vitamin B12.
Animals never have an issue with this since they get enough microbes
through food, water or even by just licking their own bodies.
Today we have “germ phobia” and we use chemicals to get rid of
bacteria everywhere. Tap water is chlorinated and bottled water is
purified. There are no organisms left there and there is no access to
natural water for most of us. Water from rivers and streams that used
to flow with life is no longer safe to drink because of contaminants.
So it doesn't matter with vegetarian people or non-vegetarian people.
Now you understand the majority of people suffering from vitamin
B12 deficiency.
Must Read
The culprit of this deficiency 80% of the time is hybrid raw food, poor
lifestyle and lack of exercise and side effects of certain medicines makes
poor absorption. This all makes digestion poor and an intestine full of
garbage. It reduces the absorption of vitamin B12 from vitamin B12
rich food sources.
Have you ever heard of drug-induced liver injury?
Liver is the second largest organ in the body. If you take unnecessary
tablets or if you take medicine in mild fever, cold or in mild pain, then
just think from childhood to till the age how much quantity of garbage
is stored in the liver.
From now on, live a fearless life and have confidence that your diet is
enough. Certain industries are worth billions of dollars. They make
you believe that it’s difficult to get all of your essential nutrients from
food alone by doing great marketing gimmick.
These companies are using various tactics to brainwash people, such as
publishing content advertisements on social media for their products.
I further want to explain to you a beautiful example. If there is milk available
then why do you use milk powder? Does it make any sense? No, right. So be a
thoughtful reader and think with logic don’t trust blindly as not every article
provides you with the correct information in the name of as per research says.
Big nooooo….
I have read one article that says coconut oil is poisonous to eat. In India
the whole south Indian community uses coconut oil in cooking. You
can search for an article I can’t mention in my book.
So read and think logically and implicate what’s working or not.
