Looking at your last test, your B12 is 909, so you don't need to take it. And it's probably high because your folate is so low. It's your folate that needs increasing.

That's said, taking just one isolated B vit is probably not going to do much for you, so you would be better off taking a good B complex. JayDee gave you links to several good B complexes in your last post. :)

Thanks. I have got a list of links that Jay Dee and all of the wonderful peeps including yourself have mentioned, just need to sit in font of my computer for a couple of hours and just concentrate on getting the information. 🙂

Personally for vit D I always buy a product thats preferably in oil and one that also contains K2, then I'm not messing about with yet another supplement bottle and hopefully I'm getting the correct amount!

I take Bare Biology Beam & Balance mouth spray which is in oil, and has 100ug per 3 sprays. I actually need a bit more than that...

Not what you're looking for?
