Just when some people think they are eating healthily, Dr Berg gives them another reality check 👍🏿

Who came here from the Don't drink Celsius Energy drink video 😂

Started keto with intermittent fasting 7 days ago thanks to you. My inflammation is gone. My stiff neck is gone. Sinus cleared up. No more fatigue. I can think clear. Even my dandruff is reducing. My sleep has improved. I sleep deeper, my wife noticed I don’t move or get up as much. Can’t wait to see more benefits to come. Thank you.

My husband had all this symptoms, today he is a new man! THAKS Dr. Berg!🙏🏻❤️

A guy at work told me about cyanocobalamin and got me looking into it and now I avoid it in all foods and vitamins!

I been taking this Synthetic B12 (Cyanocobalamin) for years. And experiencing tingling and symptoms mentioned. Thank you Dr. Berg!

I mostly eat vegetarian but I eat fatty fish only (sardines, anchovies and salmon). I eat seafood for my B12 and added beef liver for the B12.

Good morning Dr Berg and all who watch your videos. Dr Berg you are a gem a limited edition, when you school us on our health.... May God bless you and your family...a true fan from New York!!

You saved my life with all this usefull info. Never been in doctors office after started watching and learning from you. Very appreciated, God bless you!

Got to love this man who looks out for our health...God bless you doctor 😊

if I told anyone about Methyleneblue they would ask when I started drugs. jokes aside, B12 and other vitamins helped pull me out of a depression, and I mean bad depression. I had GALLONS of urine in jugs, never left my room, wanted to die, and felt like I was going to die anyway. I'm still recovering but I finally had the energy to clean my room. I have carpet again. I have more energy and I'm not constantly sore. I've been slowly picking up my weights again, though I can feel how out of shape I am. I'm still thin but if I get to the point of sweating it feels like I'm going to pass out from heat exhaustion and my heart feels weak. I used to have a very strong heart but after years of sitting and not doing anything I'm sure something must have happened. so I try not to stress my heart too much but I'm slowly building cardio and endurance again. I don't think anyone will read this or care but it helps me write it down. it's a really big achievement for me. anyway, have a great day and stay healthy :)

I am a "Senior" who has had enormous benefit from switching to methylcobalimine from the cyano-version. I USED to be very diabetic with great peripheral neuropathy damage to my feet and even hands. That damage is "supposed" to be permanent but mine is virtually GONE and I have regained full sensation everywhere---NO numbness or fire-feet! Seniors tend to become unable to properly digest and absorb vitamin B-12 from lack of stomach acid, and develop a range of "ageing" conditions, especially Psoriasis. A daily "megadose" of one to two and even three milligrams of Methylcobalimine is warranted, not toxic, and do not give up until you find an Internist who agrees with that. Yes, my psoriasis is gone too!.............................elsullo

Dr. Janine put the information out in one of her videos. I threw out my B complex vitamins, gummy multi vitamins, and Nutrisystem powdered shake packets, several weeks ago. All these had cyanocobalamin. Your info confirms it more. Thanks.

Causes of vitamin B12 deficiency: • Not consuming foods high in vitamin B12 • Stomach inflammation • H. pylori • Low stomach acid • Gastric bypass • Inflammation in the intestines *Cyanocobalamin is a synthetic version of vitamin B12* (contains cyanide!) Potential side effects of cyanocobalamin: • Vomiting • Stomach problems • Low potassium • Headaches • Fever • Dizziness *The best form of vitamin B12 is the natural version called Methylcobalamin* This version is the active form of vitamin B12 and stays in the body longer than the synthetic versions. Potential benefits of methylcobalamin: • It may help improve sleep • It can decrease the need for sleep • It can help you wake up feeling alert and refreshed • It can help you fall asleep faster • It's great for the nervous system (especially the myelin sheath) • It supports healthy eyes • It increases melatonin • It decreases homocysteine • It can help regulate cortisol • It supports the red blood cells Thank you Dr Berg!😸👍

Thank you Dr. Berg. I was researching to find out dosage of cyanocobalamin B12 for my husband. I came across your video and am so thankful I did. I am going to look for the methylcobalamin instead. We truly appreciate you putting out the truth on synthetic vitamins.

I’m vegan and will switch to methyl b12. Currently my B12 supplements have the cyanide synthetic! Happy to learn this!

So much great information. I’ve been in the fitness industry for quite some time and have been researching and practicing holistic and natural health for myself for many years, but supplements were something I was never able to spend a lot of time researching. It’s such a rapidly changing part of medicine as we better understand human biology. I appreciate you breaking it down. You’re such a caring person to make this vital information available to everyone. Thank you!

Thanks Doc, I worry about my liver bc I lost a few friends to liver troubles. I checked my b-complex and it does have the cheaper B12 version. I'm tossing it in the trash today. I like water, so I never drank that colored sugar water that the conglomerates push on us. I also stopped oats and cereals and switched back to mostly just bacon and eggs. I've lost some weight by doing this.

It’s so frustrating that this type of B12 is in almost everything that claims to have B12 over the counter. I got a whole food ‘supposedly’ good one without all the fillers and flow agents only to learn it was cyanocobalamin, the same is in my nutritional yeast flakes. So disappointing because I thought I was doing my body good but kept getting tummy issues and headaches from the B12 capsules. Thank you for explaining in depth Dr Berg, this is helping us get informed and know what look for on the ingredients labels.

Thank you Dr Berg! Are you still doing the video on how stress can cause good bacteria in your gut to turn pathogenic and what we can do to help with this problem? Thank you in advance 👍🏽

Good morning Dr Berg.fantastic topic.I am really confused with B 12 , lucky you updated it.Have a good weekend dr Berg and your family

I woould suggest that hydroxocobalamin is the best form of b12 to be used by evryone. Its easly converted to methylcobalamin and adenosylcobalamin in the liver and to the amount your body needs. Hydroxocobalamin is found in beef and it stays for longer time in the blood. If this information helpd you, please press like.

I am very thankful for having doctor Berg in this world. My health and my lifestyle has changed so much after I started watching his videos.

Wish there were energy drinks that had good ingredients like methylcobalamin, nicotinic acid, etc.

Sad that he didn't mention that about ten percent of people are prone to _OVERMETHYLATION,_ and so taking large amounts of Methylcobalamin can lead to mental instability. I was taking large doses of it to help with my MS, but that ended up causing me to become cyclothymic (like a lighter version of Bipolar) until I realized what was happening.

This is why I’m careful about vitamins now. Their more expensive but I can say with experience take tons of pills for a few days you can sometimes end up feeling worse.

I always felt tired after taking cyanocobalamin so stopped ages ago

You have and are providing great knowledge, Dr Berg.

I had B12 anemia, so I was prescribed a course of B12 injections. It was a little painful, but it really raised my B12 levels in the blood, and even a year later I have a good test. Food or supplements would not help here, so if you suspect a B12 deficiency, it is better to take a blood test and visit a doctor.

Dr. Berg, you are my go-to resource for most meds. Thank you for all you do to inform us so we can live longer and healthier. Thank God for you.

I'm glad someone is mentioning cyanocobalamin. It's not as benign as people think.

Thank you so much Doctor Berg. Very helpful information. Have a good weekend dr Berg and his team

Thank you for the clarification. You mentioned this difference in a previous video and I checked my bottle of B12 and instantly switched to the methylcobalamin.

I’ve known this for decades which is why I’ve always chosen quality water in glass bottles over many vitamin drinks, fortified juices, etc. There are other vitamins (ie Vit C as citric acid from gmo corn, folic acid instead of folate, others we still don’t know about yet) that aren’t in their most nontoxic or useful forms added to many supplements and “foods” also. That’s why my health drastically improved after eating the cleanest and most nutrient dense whole foods I can possibly source, stopping supplement pills/powders (this space isn’t regulated and I’m personally not impressed with the items that are anyway) and using quantum upgrade and a rife machine only when needed. We’re all unique so this is just what I found to be optimal for me. Actually, my quantum upgrade subscription was a game changer.

Very cool info! Was curious of the REAL Reason you seemed to discourage Cyanocobalamin shots. Now we know. Yeah less Cyanide sounds better. The interaction between B12 and potassium you mention is interesting too. Thanks for explaining things few others talk about.

When I started taking B12 as Cyanocobalamin I felt severe dizziness, like vertigo that I'd never experienced before & I started getting headaches too. I checked my Carbon Monoxide monotor to make sure it was working right because I had similar symptoms to carbon monoxide poisoning.

Ultimately, the most important thing is to ensure you're getting an adequate intake of vitamin B12, whether through diet or supplementation, as it plays a crucial role in various bodily functions. We must focus on meeting your B12 needs in a way that works best for you and aligns with our personal preferences.

I was taking the wrong B-12 almost daily. Thank you for this information. 👍

Thanks for giving the information to make conscious decisions about our health.

Good you mentioned this, I just started methylcobalamin, watching the video gives me the "Dr. Berg proof" of peace.

I just pitched four different bottles of vitamins in the trash! All had Cynocobalamin in them! That was $40 wasted.

This video came at the right time.thanks for your efforts doctor🙏

There are so many doctors on this platform pushing the cyanide version over the methyl version, and they give convincing arguments. I am switching over to methyl for now since I have developed a potassium deficiency and want to rule out the B12 as the cause. I also seem dizzy after I take my morning B12 cyano version. I am a long term dysautonomia sufferer, so when dizzy symptoms return I get nervous. And I had a DVT a year ago and I still get swelling. So I want to make sure to get my potassium back up.

Just yesterday my Endocrinologist prescribed B12 for me because my recent labs indicated that my B12 levels are on the low side due to my type 2 diabetes and the 2000mg's of Metformin I am taking daily. I just recently started taking Berberine and ACV in an effort to treat my diabetes in a natural way. Having a fatty liver with stage 3 scarring, as well as Crohn's disease makes it even more challenging. I also have included D3/K2 extract and milk thistle extract in my daily routine and am looking into VSL3 (probiotics) for my colon health. Just hope the prescribed B12 is the right one. Thanks so much Dr. Berg for valuable information. 💖

I feel like humanity is in the dark ages and Dr. Berg is the one who enlightens us all.

Food is medicine. My doctor is against vitamins period. I still sneak them in but Dr. Eric breaks it down. Thank you Dr. E. Berg. 💡

Thanks for this very important information about B12. I take B12 a day so I better check the contents of the B12 I'm taking. God richly bless and protect you as you continue to educate people. 🙏🥳💖

If you're not methylating properly, methylcobalamin can be a nightmare for anxiety type symptoms even in small doses. Hydroxycobalamin does not have this effect and may work better for these people temporarily along as their liver is able to convert it.

Isnt cyanid in small levels (like apricote seeds) good to keep safe fro cancer ?

I just bought B12...!!! just checked the bottle,it's methylcobalamin...???😮☹Alleliuhia.

Yes I switched it to Meth. Cobalamin. I was taking Cyanocobalamin since ages and I had some abnormal RBCs (slightly more than the normal amount) which became sickle shaped and I think I now know the reason of it. After reversing my type 2 Diabetes this is another step towards a healthier living. Thank You Dr Berg ❤❤❤

Just great.... seeing this video after a few days of buying vitamin B12 supplement, ran to check what type it is and lo and behold, turns out I got the cyanocobalamin type. I'm getting really frustrated with all these rules.... Don't eat this, don't eat that, oh eat this but not this type of it. Oh well, here goes the B12 in the trash. I better not see another video telling me why I shouldn't take methylcobalamin B12 too after I get that one. I'm grateful for the info even though I seem pissed.

Thanks Dr Berg. Ones a week I take a pill of B12 and folic acid, and only now I see it is written "cyanocobalamin". Never thought that a poison will be placed in a pill and I understood it is cheaper to make. So I checked and saw that eggs (which I eat a boiled one almost everyday) are rich in vitamin B12. Is this enough?

Thank you for informative video Doc.. keep it up! God bless you Doc Berg and your family

I just bought that bad B12. Started feeling nausea after I ate. Throwing away that B12. Thank You, Doc!

You’re a life saver! I had no idea. 2 of my b12 supps were the synthetic version

Dr. Berg, I've been consuming the smoothies with kale , Kefir, blueberries, blackberries, and water. My right shoulder is feeling so much better. I bought some B- complex and just read it the Cyancoobalamin in it !! 😢 Gees are getting us in every direction !! This was bought at a health store!!

Methyl B12 was an absolute gamechanger for me in regard to fatigue. I highly recommend getting liquid drops so you can really fine-tune your optimal dose. I found that 1200mcg/day was too much (made it impossible to fall sleep), but 450mcg/day first thing in the morning seems to be just right for me at the moment, but it's definitely a case of self-experimentation.

my mother fed me lambs fry; I now know why and eat it once a week - for the B12.

Thank God I saw this. I just bought this bottle of vitamin B . It has it in it. I threw it out. I had severe diarreah, stomach pain,bloating,blockage.

Instantly go check my multi vitamin and yes it has this variant 🤦‍♂

Thanks so much Dr Berg for your great knowledge in health. I love your teachings and you’ve been a blessing to me and my family. I would like to learn about Scoliosis disease. God bless you !

Where do you people get methylcobalamin?

Well ERICK WELL DONE, it's so good to listen that somebody cares for the rest, l am so glad to watch your vídeos, THANK YOU so much ,GOD BLESS YOU

Maaan my mens 1 a day has it and my kids flintstone vitamins has it…

Off topic: could you give an estimate on how much folate is in your cruciferous supplement? Per tablet?

Oh man, I just bought the B-Complex and it also has Cyanocobalamin. Was not cheap, but guess have to trash it now...

I just checked my multivitamins from Costco and, yup, it has cyanocobalamin.😮😢

And I just checked the ingredient information of my multivitamin tablet and B12 is in the form of Cyanocobalamin 🤢🤮

Thank you Dr Berg for this great information! I’ve had digestive issues for many years. I’ll be taking B-12 with Methylcobalamin. I hope this will help. 👍🏼😊

Thanks a bunch for the information. I had no idea.

Thanks just checked my multivitamins and 2 different packs of them have this so no thanks anymore 😮

Hydroxycobalamin is the real version of b12, it has been given as an injection for treating cyanide poisoning for many decades. The hydroxycobalamin binds to cyanide to neutralize it and become the less toxic cyanocobalamin which is generally removed in the urine, small amounts can be breathed out. If you take a lot of cyanocobalamin it displaces the real versions of b12 which must be carried by intrinsic factor in the blood, filling up all the IF so even if the liver is making more it can't be transported in the blood. Therefore taking cyanocobalamin causes b12 deficiency which increases cyanide toxicity since many fruits and grains have some level of cyanide in them which are normally detoxified by b12. Methylcobalamin and adenosylcobalamin are co-enzymes of real b12 (hydroxycobalamin), but even taking high doses of those can cause b12 deficiency because they also fill up all the intrinsic factor which is needed to transport b12 in the blood to where it's needed. If you're going to take b12 it should optimally have at least an equal part of hydroxycobalamin if you want a blend containing also methyl and adenosylcobalamin. Cyanocobalamin should not be consumed by any living thing, it's a (less) toxic waste product of detoxifying cyanide.

My favorite Doctor!

Thanks much Doc. Had a big ol bottle of B12 made from cyanocobalamin 5000mcg now in the dumpster. My multivitamin has 24mcg methylcobalamin and will just take that a couple times a week... I can't believe cyanide is an ingredient for consumption...

Thank you Dr. Berg. This is very helpful. I had my labs done recently and I'm deficient in B12. Now I know which one to purchase. My regular primary care provider only said take vitamin B12 but didn't explain. I truly appreciate your information.

good advise, alarming for those who are taking a lot of it, thanks @dr

Thank U Doc. BERG for ur Video on Cyanamine or Vit. B12, for its Synthetic content avoiding to use the synthetic one.

Acv is the best b12 because its boosts my energy way better than b12

Is it made from sewage?

3:24 and 5:49 What about vegan b12 supplements? They often got a combination of methylcobalamin, hydroxocobalamin and adenosylcobalamin.

LOL... I just bought a bottle of B12 while looking for B1. I couldn't find B1 at the drug store I was in. They didn't even have a space for it. I was suckered by the "Boosts Energy" claim on the bottle. Since I've been dragging for literally years I popped two B12 's in the parking lot, hoping for a magical fix to my problem. (Hey, if a little is good, a whole lot must be better, right?) About two hours later, I felt exhausted. I swear it had the opposite effect. I stuck with it, however, taking it at night. Found the B1 about a week later. After starting the B1, I began to notice a little improvement. After watching this video, I can't help but wonder if the cyanide component is actually what is bringing me down. Two pills, according to the label, equates to 40,000% of the average daily allowance. Needless to say, while Dr. Berg was speaking, I went to the cabinet and threw that bottle of B12 in the garbage. I swear! You can not trust anything you buy or anyone you buy from! I bought this from a big box drug store!

I take Nutricost B complex which is cheap and has 1000mcg of methylcobalamin B12, and 60mg of Tiamine B1 per capsule

Thank you Dr berg you are a life saver, keep on educating use we definitely need it!😊

The question is whether the Methyl version can be taken along with the cyanide version because so many B-Complex (multi-B) supplements contain the cyanide version.

When I check B12 in my practice, most are deficient. As for detox genes, hydroxocobalamin to get rid of cyanide such as in Leber's disease, and methylcobalamin for MTHFR. Also, much of the B12 in meat is fecal contamination or supplements they inject into the animal. As for your keto plan, a significant shortening of lifespan has been shown. You must differentiate complex carbs like sweet potatoes from soft drinks/refined carbs and carbs that have an excellent health profile due to fiber and other vitamin and mineral components such as whole fruit vs juices. Considering yourself an expert does not mean competence. I have treated patients following your diet for severe heart disease. The carnivore diet lead to one case of scurvy 4 years ago. I wish proper debate occurred as a lot of your nutritional facts fall apart under proper scrutiny. Whole foods are important. Grains were very healthy if little processing occurred until we began using massive amounts of pesticides and herbicides. Much of celiac disease is improperly diagnosed and is actually a reaction to glyphosate. Much of the cases appeared in 2006 and since then due to spraying grain with glyphosate to accelerate drying for rapid transfer to market. I can eat Italian (made in) wheat foods, organic but nothing from North America. There is a difference between unhealthy foods and poisoned healthy foods. Also, much of the cattle is fed this poisoned food and the pesticides and herbicides reach much higher levels in their flesh than most plant foods and a cow will eat multiple times more than we do. Same concept for mercury accumulation up the food chain in marine life. Wild game is much safer. I wish popular people like you were better informed because I would rather not believe this is malicious self-enrichment (agro-industry) such as the inventor of keto, Taubes, a journalist. He invented his diet inspired by a few studies of which the authors described him with terms close to, among other things, incompetent, dangerous, unable to understand basic scientific concepts, etc.

Thank you Doc, not fully understand but I will go over the video again until 😊😊

Thx thx thx. I was taking the synthetic one. Yesterday I took it at around 3pm. At night I was very ill. I was sleepy but not able to sleep. The first thing I did this morning I threw it in the bin and bought the natural one

Thanks for the info Dr Berg 🌸

Thank you so much Doctor Berg ❤🙏👍

I noticed i got flushing and redness of my face when i had too much of this stuff in a liquid multivitamin

Wow ! It’s really good know about this information. Believe me I was shocking when you mentioned about B 12 details. Thanks for sharing it with us 🙏

Thank you for all your advice. ❤

Thank you much for this video. How much should the average person take daily & can you take too much B12?

Dr Berg this is my first video I've seen of yours and I would just like to say thank you no bullshit excuse my language straight to the point no sweet talking you tell it how it is and I thank you you didn't have to tell it like you did like you did like you did................and I thank you

Most nutritional yeast here is fortified and I do not think that it is even labelled.

Why do they put cyanide in things anyway? What's the purpose?

Thank you, I would love to share my success story some time.

Thanks Mr Berg its blessing to have you.....

Just read the label on my liquid B12 is from BASIC GREENS COMPANY it s the correct one. 🧡🤦🏽‍♀️ when ya pay $22. A bottle and aren’t sure until a Dr. Berg video 😆✊🏽 Have a good Weekend everyone 🥒💦🐝🐞
