Guest guest Posted September 19, 2009 Report Share Posted September 19, 2009 Karen, the methyl form of B12 is the BEST one. It is mostly easily absorbed without much processing in our bodies. It's usually more expensive than the cobalamine form, but may be worth it. It needs to be taken ongoing, consistently though, not just for while. It's part of the regular nutrition we require. We like quinoa as porridge or cooked like rice. Deborah My son was on Methyl B12 for a while there, would that count or is it too different? I hadn't used quinoa before and tried making porridge in the crockpot using quinoa, millet & buckwheat. It's not too bad. I used to use brown rice, basmati rice, millet & buckwheat before I attended the seminar. There I found out that I should only keep anything with rice in it for no more than 12 hours. I was making up a couple of days worth of breakfasts to save time. Apparently it grows a fungus that you can't see which causes problems. DS already has a fungal problem that won't go away, maybe this is the cause of it. How else do you use quinoa? Is it really good for you? Looks like I'll have to add it to our diets (another new experience). Thanks to all, I'm soaking up the info. Karen. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 Thanks Deborah. DS was having MB12 nasal spray as part of his ADHD Pfeiffer regime. He's had it for 2 years and was only stopped in May when he saw Dr. Bill Walsh in Sydney. His new supps have b12 in them. Mine don't so I was looking at adding it to mine. Thanks for all your info & support. I will make sure we take it all the time once we drop the eggs (down the track). I have a source of backyard eggs from a friend at church. Don't like what's in commercial eggs or meat or milk. Have dairy allergies anyway. Thanks again, Karen. ________________________________ Deborah Pageau <dpageau Sunday, 20 September, 2009 8:59:29 AM Re: Vitamin B12 & quinoa Karen, the methyl form of B12 is the BEST one.
