Vitamin Skin Patches?

[Natalia]

Does (or has) anyone here used vitamin patches? How helpful did you find them?

I am wondering also how effective B12 patches can be? I have asked GPs a few times if I can have B12 injections and they have said no. A friend of mine injects himself with B12 and said it really helped a lot, and while that is a possibility, it's not something that I feel drawn to do...I would prefer patches...

Hello Amethyst,

whether your B12 is in skin patch form, or capsule or tablet, just make
sure it's METHYL-cobalamine not CYANO-cobalamine.
Methyl-cobalamine is directly usable by your body.
Cyano-cobalamine requires that you have an enzyme available to convert
the Cyano-cobalamine to Methyl-cobalamine. However, those people with B12
deficiency also tend to be deficient in the enzyme required to do the conversion.
So naturally, the people most in need of the B12 are often the ones that
benefit least from the Cyano-cobalamine used to treat the deficiency.
(... it's a ridiculous state of affairs!)

So.. just read the label and buy the ones listed with methyl-cobalamine.

The natural solution to B12 deficiency is to eat more organ meats:
heart, kidney, liver. These meats (bizarrely) are much, much cheaper than
the more popular beef/pork/lamb/etc steaks.... so you can save yourself some
money and do your health the world of good, by simply buying and cooking
heart/liver/kidney. There's a popular opinion, probably justified, that lamb/sheep
heart/liver/kidney is less likely to have been 'polluted' with antibiotics, hormones,
steroids etc... than pork and beef meat. Best, of-course, is to prefer meat from
wild or organically raised animals.

hope this helps

be happy

Hi Lucidity, thank you :) I am vegan but I am sure that others will benefit from your advice of eating more nutritious meats.

I have a B12 spray that I use under the tongue, it contains Methylcobalamin...the intrinsic factor thing can be a bit complicated! I and others don't even know if we have a deficiency in that, or not. I did not take the test because they would not give it to me so I just took the B12 spray. I do have patches that I bought and am wearing one now, but it contains some other B vits including folic acid (not to good to go to high on that one, from what I have read)...and a few other vitamins...it's only the second time that I have worn one in a few months...if I were to suggest to anyone about getting B12 patches, I would say to get it on it's own without any other vitamins - just to be on the safe side (unless you feel or know different for yourself or have been given different advice from a a nutritionist or natural therapist who knows more about your own individual health situation and patches).

Well, unless you have actively added ionic minerals to your diet, AND you know you don't have candidas , cuz otherwise you'd be wasting your money [ the candida eats first you get any leftovers. ]
and asking your doctor about this is kinda like asking a chevy dealer if fords are ok or not! they get very little nutritional information and still actually believe that we get all our nutrition from foods, which flies in the face of reality. uncle sam, it his infinite wisdom;

[[ Senate Document #264


Unabridged Excerpts From Senate Document
No. 264, 1936
74th Congress, 2nd Session

Do you know that most of us today are suffering from certain dangerous diet deficiencies,

which cannot be remedied until the depleted soils from which our foods come are brought

into proper mineral balance?

The alarming fact is that foods—fruits and vegetables and grains—now being raised on

millions of acres of land that no longer contains enough of certain needed minerals, are

starving us—no matter how much of them we eat! ]] search for your own senate doc online and read the entire thing.

so, this is old news, and we are all falling apart unless we finally GET IT, and start taking action.
I reco a cpl books, rare earths dr. wallach , and candida, killing so sweetly, by earth clinic.

lastly, keep in mind what the 1st surgeon general said ;
"The Constitution of this Republic should make special provision for medical freedom. To
restrict the art of healing to one class will constitute the Bastille of medical science.

All such laws are un-American and despotic. ... Unless we put medical freedom into the
constitution the time will come when medicine will organize into an undercover
dictatorship and force people who wish doctors and treatment of their own choice to
submit to only what the dictating outfit offers."

which is exactly what we got


to your health.....
