B12

[Guest guest]

I'm " practically vegan " because each month I eat 3ozs

skinless chicken breast, 8ozs nonfat skim milk, 8ozs

nonfat yogurt and 3ozs turkey. I usually eat these

things one per week, during a given month, using them

as a condiment with a vegan meal. I do this for many

practical reasons, one being that the requirement for

B12 is very small and can be completely satisfied with

this small amount of animal protein, which I prefer to

taking pills. Pills are not a reliable source of

anything but chemicals brewed up in some lab. We

don't know that the body can actually use them. Most

of them are worse than taking nothing.
