Pediatric B12 Deficiency Causes Permanent Brain Injuries
“Vitamin B12 < 300 pg/mL in Children and Especially Adolescents May Predispose Forgetfulness, Anxiety, and Unhappiness” pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC50…
Fatigue “A recent visit to my healthcare provider (and several vials of blood later) revealed the culprit: a vitamin B12 deficiency, which I developed from being a vegetarian for nearly two decades.” vogue.com/article/thorne…
Homocysteine and Dementia. Prevention starts early, don’t wait for damage done. High Homocysteine is toxic to nerves and vessels. foodforthebrain.org/homocysteine-a…
Homocysteine and Psychosis: Don’t wait for damage done. High homocysteine is toxic to brains. “Homocysteine levels were significantly higher in first-episode patients with psychiatric disorders compared to healthy controls” pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38846917/
Homocysteine and “Autism” Don’t wait for damage done. High homocysteine is toxic to nerves, vessels, pregnancies, neurodevelopment. Reminder: Folic acid is not the same as whole food folate, and folic acid is not a good usable folate for all people. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC94…
Homocysteine and “PTSD” Prevention starts early, do not wait for damage done. High homocysteine is toxic to nerves and vessels. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26120806/
Homocysteine and AFib Prevention starts early, don’t wait for damage done. High homocysteine is toxic to nerves and vessels. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32727999/

Thank you for the opportunity to reach more sufferers with the hope of remission thru metabolic nutrition!

Got insomnia? Got anxiety? The relationship between cobalamin (vitamin B12) and folate below the cutoff values on anxiety and insomnia symptoms: “B12 and folate levels below cutoff values were associated with more severe insomnia and anxiety symptoms.” sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
.@HHSGov Why the exponential increase in autism after folic acid fortification? Excessive lifelong folic acid (synthetic folate) changes brains and metabolism and masks/worsens pediatric B12 deficiency. WeDidThis Folic acid not good for all B12 deficiency bad for all
.@HHS.gov BostonBirthCohort study from Johns Hopkins shows: highest risk of autism in babies exposed to highest levels of unmetabolized folic acid from mom. We have been changing babies’ brains and metabolism with lifelong excessive synthetic folate + low B12 (folate’s cofactor)

When “HELLP syndrome” was named (severe life-threatening death-spiral in pregnancy), the physician who named it noted that all women he examined who died of it were taking acid suppressing meds. He did not know to check B12. He did not know folic acid masks/worsens B12 deficiency
Pepcid AC, and other acid-reducing medications like proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), interfere w absorption of vitamin B12 from food, leading to a deficiency over time. This occurs because stomach acid is necessary to release vitamin B12 from protein it's bound to in food
severe B12 deficiency causes every symptom we label #HELLP syndrome. Folic acid masks and worsens B12 deficiency. doctors are not taught this. women are receiving substandard negligent care.
What if changing your diet could change your brain? Doug Reynolds (@DougieReynolds) shares how going keto didn’t just heal his body—it calmed his mind and helped him reclaim life after a traumatic brain injury.
