This plant has changed my paradigm about B12 being in plants and has also given me hope of a future highly eco-friendly superfood because of the protein and other nutrient content it possesses. FASCINATING!

I knew it. As a biologist and educator, I have been stating that it is highly unlikely that only animals incorporated B12 producing bacteria. I'm surprised Mike didn't mention endosymbiotic theory featuring mitochondria and chloroplasts. :-) I think we will continue to find more and more edible plants that facilitate this. Mitochondria and chloroplast ancestors probably could as well. I'll have to do some digging. Keep up the good work!

There is also evidence that Lactobacillus reuteri CRL1098 Produces Cobalamin (or vitamin B12). (See: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC193752/). Think sourdough bread!! At least 4 L. reuteri strains have been found to produce B12! (Tempeh can contain large amounts of B12 - See: Enhanced vitamin B12 production in an innovative lupin tempeh is due to synergic effects of Rhizopus and Propionibacterium in cofermentation. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/29041832 ).

​@@blonderider2650 Did you watch the video; better yet, did you read the study? You are probably referring to experimental plots in Israel. The species of bacteria providing the B12 is not a pathogenic form. There is no evidence of this. Yes, I am a college Biology Professor (many schools) with a Masters in Biology and a Doctoral Candidate in Science Education. I am also a Doctor of Science Student in Integrative Health. Nothing I stated warranted your mocking. With that said, from the actual study: "The B12 in the Mankai is not a bacterial contaminant (disinfecting and washing the surface of the plant do not reduce the B12 content)". Yeah, keep your laughs to yourself. You obviously have no idea what you are talking about. There are other non-animal sources of B12 as well (which is the point that vegans have to keep making). www.researchgate.net/publication/329559531_Protein_bioavailability_of_Wolffia_globosa_duckweed_a_novel_aquatic_plant_-_A_randomized_controlled_trial

In very Greger-like fashion, Mic is presenting a hypothesis as a fact. If B12 is actually present in duckweed instead of a pseudo-B12, the association with endophytic is just a hypothesis. Regardless, below is a letter response to the paper on Mankai that Mic flashed in his gish gallop. It's not clear whether or not, duckweed has B12 or pseudo B12. A press release from a company trying to push duckweed as a source of B12 also is a pretty poor source to start one's argument with. ================================================= Jahreis, G., Appenroth, K.-J., Sree, K. S., & Dawczynski, C. (2019). Letter to original article by Kaplan et al. 2018 - Protein bioavailability of Wolffia globosa duckweed, a novel aquatic plant, A randomized controlled trial. DOI: doi.org/10.1016/j.clnu.2019.07.007 "...Plants contain a large spectrum of corrinoids and an analytical differentiation between active and inactive corrinoids is challenging. Interestingly, Watanabe and Bito [2] investigated cobalamin compounds in foods and found a high proportion of pseudo vitamin B12 compounds in plant foods. Moreover, the vitamin B12 content of test meals containing Mankai was higher than that of test meals with soft cheese (Table1). It is important to state here that dairy products are a well-known natural source of active vitamin B12. Considering the results presented by Watanabe and Bito [2] there is a probability that the ones analyzed in Mankai, with the method used, were pseudo vitamin B12 or inactive corrinoids. In the clinical studies concerning determination of vitamin B12 in blood, competitive electrochemiluminescent immunoassay “ECLIA” (Cobas 8000, Roche Diagnostics, Mannheim, Germany) was used. However, this assay cannot differentiate cobalamins from inactive corrinoids. In the present report, the serum concentration of vitamin B12 did not change significantly from baseline values after 180 min, but the differences between the Mankai group verses the soft cheese group as well as the green peas group were significant. The variation in and between the subjects was very high. The results presented in this section are not in coherence with those in Table 1. The decrease of serum vitamin B12 concentration after consumption of the soft cheese test meal (Table 3) are not plausible because vitamin B12 content in soft cheese test meal was 1.16 mg. Likewise, the increase of vitamin B12 concentration after intake of green peas is also not acceptable, as green peas test meal did not contain vitamin B12 (Table 1). The vitamin B12 concentrations present a high standard deviation, which underlines the analytical challenges involved herein The authors hypothesize that the presence of vitamin B12 in Mankai is because of its association with endophytic bacteria. The identification of these bacteria and basic characterization of their role, if any, in pathogenesis in humans is the minimum requirement from a scientific point of view, as Mankai is planned to be used for human nutrition. In our opinion, the authors' conclusion that Mankai is a potential bioavailable source of vitamin B12 is premature and further research in humans is of urgent need to draw the right conclusions."

Duckweed is a bio-accumulator that typically grew and grows in stagnant mineral rich waters with fish, birds and reptiles. Duckweed bio-accumulates nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and a lot of heavy metals. So, any B12, if it indeed is B12 and not pseudo B12, may be simply due to the duckweed bio-accumulating the B12 from animal and fish manures.

@@REGENETARIANISM animals don't produce b12, if that was so then cows at farms weren't being given supplements since they're fed soybeans. All b12 comes from bacteria that lives on grass and in the soil which (the grass) the ruminants ingest and accumulate. So duckweed contains b12 not from an animal source, but from its original dispenser - bacteria. Edit: research "Australia's Bush Disease" - its what happens when cattle is let to feed on b12-bacteria depleted soils. (Spoiler: they die since they don't make b12 themselves)

Since you can only absorb just 33% of your daily per meal anyway, just use a tiny amount per meal and you'll be golden. I add a half a teaspoon in my salad, smoothie, tofu scramble, or anything else I may wish. It has a cheese like smell so most use it as a cheese substitute in things like potato and carrot vegan cheese sauce or anything like homemade tofu ricotta cheese. some even sprinkle it on pasta, again, as a cheese substitute. Most soy milk also is fortified with B12 too. I hope that helps you to get your B12 daily, but please use a B12 supplement anyway once or twice a week unless a Doctor recommends otherwise.

An interesting fact is how few edible plants we actually use: "Scientists at the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew have estimated that the number of species of plants alive on the earth today is probably in excess of 400,000. Of these it is thought that many more than half of them could be considered edible to humans. It is entirely possible that we could eat an amazing 300,000 plant species. However, the reality is that we only consume a tiny fraction of what is possible. Homo sapiens, which is the most cosmopolitan of all species and one that thrives by virtue of being a supreme generalist, survives, by routinely eating only about 200 plant species. Amazingly more than half of the calories and the proteins that we derive from plants are provided by just three crops: maize, rice, and wheat." - John Warren, The Nature of Crops Clearly many of the plants classed as "edible" are not necessarily palatable, but in a world freed from the profit motive (i.e. socialism/anarchism), resources could be directed towards the selective breeding of all these plants to produce palatable varieties, which could potentially enormously expand the possibilities within plant-based diets. Nowadays, we think of plant-based diets as boring and limited, as compared to ones that include meat, but in theory they could be far more exciting - if it's the case that we only routinely eat 200 plant species out of a possible total of 300,000, that means we only consume 0.067% of edible plants. If you consider the fact that we consume even fewer sources of meat: pigs, cows, chickens, turkey, sheep/lamb, and goat make up most of them, then that means that all the dishes ever cooked in human history thus far have been produced with a remarkably limited set of ingredients compared to what could be done with all the unknown edible plants.

The only other plant food that has been tested is nori, which did not have B12 activity. A number of foods, arguably, warrant further attention. Makai, a type of duckweed, has shown promise for containing active B12 due to synergistic bacteria living inside the plant. But unless these foods are shown to consistently improve B12 status, vegans should not rely on them for vitamin B12. It cannot be emphasized enough that until a particular food, obtained from multiple regions, consistently improves vitamin B12 status (by lowering MMA levels) in humans, it should not be relied upon as a source of vitamin B12." -from "Vegan Health" Organization's web site

@Gerardo Argueta if Agenda 21 is true then that is why they push for grassfed animal products. Most people in the world cannot afford to eat so much meat as the Westen societies do. But if the Elite dream about grassfed animal products for everyone then they need to kill billions of humans since there isn't enough space to raise only such animals for food. Don't be gullible - plants sustain many more people, so no need to kill billions.

@sick vegan that's called the False Dichotomy fallacy. It automatically makes you wrong. If you are wrong, perhaps you had better rethink your premises. But many people/populations, for many days, eat meat only. Some for months, some for lifetimes and generations. NO society flourishes on a vegan diet, usually they die off and have to recruit from healthy idiots to last for more than one generation. Of course the best practice is an animal based, whole foods diet, that includes some vegetables. See, that's the difference between normal people and you. We are not controlling and obsessed. You want to force people to do your stilted and disastrous diet, instead of just doing it your self and dying quietly. We don't care what you eat. You are the insane effectless totalitarian and we are basically sitting over here laughing at you.

The b12 starts to degrade as soon as the animal dies..

You're pretty ignorant if you think b12 is the only deficiency in a vegan diet. 45% of adults can't even form retinol from betacarotene just because of genetic polymorphism. How does one do a vegan diet when they lack the variations in the BCMO1 gene to form enough retinol? Our genes determine how we can make & absorb nutrients, and what forms of the nutrients our bodies can actually use. Veganism literally cannot be healthy for many populations. Even Mic the Vegan uses a red filter in his videos now to hide his yellowing skin (compare to older videos). He himself has either anemia or liver problems. Edit: the very reason that it's exciting for vegans to find plant based B12 is because many people do not have the variation in the MTHFR gene to use synthetic B12.

This is one of my favorite plants in the whole world. I always make sure that no matter where I live I have it growing at least in a small water feature if I don't have a big pond. I would never eat my own because when I get it I get it from the woods and there's a chance of getting things like roundworm and flukes just parasites in general because it's pond water that is wild and that's normal. One of the biggest ways that people get parasites is from plants that are around fish that have parasites or other animals like frogs toads what have you. I would love to have a controlled batch growing inside somewhere that came from a clean source. That would just throw me to death because I love the plant like crazy! I get so excited when it starts growing I just bring home a little teeny drop of it and stick my finger in the water and come out in a few days and it's starting to cover the whole surface. Even though I live in Washington state mosquitoes still lay their eggs in any Stillwater. And where there's mosquito larvae there's roundworms it's just one of those things. I could probably add copper but then I'd be adding copper to these little plants? I always wondered if they were edible which is a terrible thing to think about your cute little pet plants but you know. Thank you this was a really exciting video👣🥀🥦🐾🖤

Duckies would come and eat it but many years the duckweed was so prolific it'd cover the entire surface (the pond was kidney-shaped, roughly 80' by 40'). I loved seeing the duckweed grow more and more, and also the trails of the dark water trailing behind the duckies as they swam through it. I'm also from Washington state too! Small world :)

Bart will show you exactly how Mic misinforms you people with studies which don't actually back up his claims in the slightest. Mic knows you guys don't fact check and he knows you need confirmation bias. So he's pretty comfortable misinforming blatantly. Bart will expose every lie and tactic Mic uses. That is obviously why Mic is ducking and weaving away from debating Bart in the first place. If his position was truly and honestly superior, He would have no problem debating anyone. But a real scientist... Now that's too hard for him. He speaks science but won't debate a scientist lmao - what a dishonest pussy Dr Greger has been shown to lie, Bart would happily debate Greger aswell. Don't go vegan until you see the whole picture, and there's plenty you're not shown by the vegan community. Your health should always be a higher priority than zealotry

@@Charles-sj7zl We only recently discovered that the Lentein in Clean Green Protein contains B-12, so it is not reflected on our current labels. We will be adding the "approximately 38%DV B-12" to the new labels on our next product run in a few months. The Lentein in our product does contain B-12 and always has, we just didn't know until recently.

JBelle 713 No, that's not true, read the ingredients on the label. That brand has extremely high, toxic doses of synthetic B12 made in a lab: "Methylcobalamin from Saccharomyces cerevisiae" -- that's 500 mcg at 8,333%! It's no different than any of the other synthetic supplements, which vegans eating a proper WFPB diet do NOT need to take.

​@@jbelle7133 The B12 listed on the ingredients in addition to the list of plants is SYNTHETIC and it's at incredibly high toxic levels. All "B12 vitamins" are made in pharma labs. Your body can't process or absorb the junk in synthetic supplements. There's nothing "organic" about the bacteria used, whether they grow it on yeast or dairy waste or sewage. You want plants? Then eat plants. If you think you need a supplement then get a raw green powder without any synthetic vitamins added.
