1. Marmite contains lots of vitamin B

2. Marmite is made from the residue of brewing

Why not just drink beer!

So, Sesame Street fans, what have we learnt today?

Well for those of us who have Spina Bifida, we've learnt that they're dressing up eugenics as "a good thing".

Wotcha!
I cannot forget the vitamin B injections in the past and boy do they hurt!

Yep - B12 injections sting like hell - but if, like me you suffer from pernicious anemia, you have to put up with them! B12 cannot be absorbed by the gut so injections are the only way to administer the vitamin for those of us who are lacking it.

I used to take loads brewers yeast tablets (full of B vits) but was told by my GP that excessive doses of some of these vitamins can lead to problems with nerve endings - since I alresdy have nerve damage I decided to stop taking them!!

I think that too many people take vitamin and mineral supplements without thinking about how they work (reactions with other drugs ect) Just because something is 'natural' it doesnt follow that it is harmless.

I realise that I'm lucky in that the GPs in my practice are interested & clued up about 'natural' remedies so they are able to advise and discuss both conventional and natural drugs.

(for the record, I take calcium and Vit D, Lutien and a Cherry Supplement )

I have often had marmite cravings over the years. I think your body tells you what you need. The banana cravings I get probably mean my phosphorous levels are a bit low.

I did rush out and get vit B tabs yesterday but then read about the nerve endings bit and I already have nerve damage so am wondering if I should avoid taking the tabs now.

Hey, don't put too much stock in that news story about Alzheimer's. Ben Goldacre, of "Bad Science" fame, has pointed out the following article, which shows how the experiment was flawed - loads of people dropped out of the study!:



Again, there's no such thing as a magic pill!

Well for those of us who have Spina Bifida, we've learnt that they're dressing up eugenics as "a good thing".

Actually, those of "us" with Spina Bifida have learnt nothing of the kind.

It's clear what the agenda is with regard to Spina Bifida.

Among many other (often potentially lethal) substances parents of autistic children are pumping them full of B6. A common feature of autism is hypersensitivity, combine that with peripheral neuropathy - a common side effect of excess B6 - and I think we have found another way of torturing them to add to the growing list including chelation, restriction diets, etc.

My father was diagnosed with Alzheimer disease three years back and it had gotten to a critical stage. A friend of mine then suggested me to try lexor health vitamin b12 sublingual supplements and it proved to be very beneficial. Vitamin B 12 really posses potential health benefits as it aids proper functioning of neurological system for regular brain function and helps regulate the formation of red blood cells.

Vitamin B12 deficiency symptoms are manifest not because people are taking less vitamin B12 than recommended. Deficiency of vitamin B12 affects every cell in the body, but is most severely felt in the tissues where the cells normally divide rapidly, as in the blood-forming -tissues of the bone marrow and in the gastro-intestinal tract. The deficiency can also lead to neurological changes such as numbness and tingling in the hands and feet. It also include mood disorders, anxiety, insomnia, restlessness, night terror etc.
