A man (Ph.D.) in Washington State (US) named Dr. Jeffrey Bland is one of the leading teachers of nutrition. His web site is the functional medicine institute (www.fxmd.org). He says that there are two molecular pathways of digestion (basically) one that supports and creates more inflammation and one that is healthy. I think that what he teaches is basically what I was taught in OM. The healthier pathway has to do with B12 and Folic Acid as well as all the things previously mentioned and more. He is also the head of Metagenics which is a firm that supplies supplements and incorporates herbs and homeopathic. He studies all the latest scientific reports in the medical journals and seems to be ahead of most people. I don't know if this relates but hope so!!
