Why is this stickied 6 months after it was originally posted? Because this documentary is absolute GOLD, and many in our community are likely suffering from undiagnosed B12 deficiency. It doesn't take much of a deficiency in B12 to have a serious impact on one's physical and mental wellbeing.
I've been struggling with terrible fatigue, anxiety, and stress for the past couple of years ever since the COVID martial law lockdowns, and I finally got my blood work done in August. I was extremely fortunate to find a naturopathic nurse who knew what to look for. Rather than going through dozens of docs, I was pointed in the right direction right away when my naturopath nurse discovered within a few days that my B12 and folate levels were very low.
I am two weeks into supplementing 4000 mcgs of sublingual B12 with roughly 1600 mcgs of folate, and 27 mg of ferrous gluconate iron, and I can definitely say that my energy has begun to bud, though the fatigue is still heavy at times. Once deficient, it can take a number of months to correct the physical and mental degeneration that occurs from a lack of B12. I suspect that many who are diagnosed with "long covid" or "post covid fatigue" are likely deficient in their B12 and folate levels.
It is shocking how cheap and easy this condition is to treat, and yet how prevalent it is that it goes undiagnosed. Like early COVID treatment, the western medical industry desires to keep people indefinitely sick and in search of pills and prescriptions for their ailments. Additionally, this puts a new perspective on the World Economic Forum's push for bugs as a major food source, and the limitation or elimination of meat and dairy products from the diet. Meat is where most folks will primarily get their B12, and as such you can imagine the epidemic of neurodegenerative disease on the horizon should humanity embrace the madness of the WEF and their dystopic bug diet.
Spot on!
What numbers did that nurse go by, since we know we've been lied to about everything? Are what's considered "standard B12" levels to actually be inadequate for humans to live with comfortably? Like would Quest Diagnostic's levels be too low for normal biological functions?
