today we’re going to discuss the six

pauses

the B12 deficiency that you’ve never

heard before and this is really

important because if someone’s deficient

B12 they can develop permanent damage

into the nervous system into the brain

they can have anemia they can have a

raised level of homocysteine which is

really bad for the heart and they can

actually be depressed and have all these

medications and treatments for Years yet

nothing even touches it because no one

addressed the B12 connection various

problems can happen with your eyes on

many different levels because you have

the retina which is all nerve tissue and

b12 is needed for anything neurological

a person can develop anemia because of

the importance of B12 in your red blood

cell and even problems within the DNA

the B12 is very very important and a

huge percentage of the population in the

world is deficient in B12 and many times

they have a subclinical B12 deficiency

and they don’t even know it it’s

important to know all the causes that go

beyond just lacking B12 in the diet

because you don’t consume animal

products all right so let’s just jump

right in the first one is an H pylori

infection okay I’ve read reports and I

had a hard time believing this but 50 of

the population has an H pylori infection

I don’t know if I would agree with that

but I will say that it’s a very very

high percentage but roughly 80 percent

of the population

as H pylori in their body whether it’s

coming out of remission or not is really

depending on the environment of your

body but H pylori normally in our bodies

doesn’t create a problem okay it lives

with our body it cooperates it’s a good

relationship but when things change

environmentally it can become very very

nasty and it’s the underlying cause

behind ulcers and gastritis and atrophy

of the stomach it can produce gerd

symptoms and so on and so on

unfortunately the treatments for it

involved multiple antibiotics and acids

like ppis and unfortunately there’s a

lot of non-compliance when people do

this simply because they can’t tolerate

this this treatment and then you start

developing resistance against these

antibiotics and now you’re struck

between a rock and a hard place because

what are they going to do and so their

whole goal is to eradicate this H pylori

and just kill off this germ not take

taking consideration the rest of the

body

now if we really want to get rid of H

pylori we really want to put it back in

remission where it belongs

and that has everything to do with the

environment that this microbe lives in

and there’s a couple things you need to

know about H pylori it is a neutral fill

now what is that that is

a microbe that prefers

a pH that is more neutral okay like

between 5.5 to 7.5 7 being neutral here

this microbe is existing in an

environment that is extremely acidic I

mean the normal pH of the stomach should

be between one and three right and so if

you go all the way up to neutral

wow you’re going to have so many

problems in your stomach because you now

you can’t defend against pathogens that

come through the digestive tract uh

you’re not going to be able to digest

protein you’re gonna have a lot of

issues with absorption of minerals but

this microbe prefers that pH as we age

the pH of your stomach becomes less and

less acidic and more and more neutral

this is where we have a problem however

this H pylori microbe also has enzymes

that increase ammonia which is extremely

alkaline and it’s a survival mechanism

so if this microbe gains traction it

itself is going to create an alkaline

stomach and give you a lot of problems

with digestion and what is that going to

do that is going to greatly inhibit

B12 why because you need that acid

to break down the food to extract B12

B12 is in animal products right if you

can’t digest the protein to extract the

B12 you’re going to be deficient and not

only that H pylori will also deplete

your iron reserves your vitamin A your

vitamin C and your folic acid so what

would be a better approach or a better

strategy for this H pylori well number

one start acidifying your stomach if you

can but many people can’t because they

have an ulcer or they have gastritis so

if you add more acid to the stomach

you’re going to make it worse

so what can you do well guess what

broccoli Sprouts or even better yet

broccoli micro greens have sulfurophane

which is a compound of phytonutrient

that can kill H pylori okay there’s many

other phytonutrients that can kill it

but sulforaphane is a great solution

another thing to take would be garlic

that garlic can kill off H pylori or at

least put it back in remission

probiotics have been found to inhibit H

pylori so here we have doctors

recommending antibiotics but why not

just use probiotics to really get that

thing back in check and just as a side

note if you’re on antibiotics right now

you better be taking probiotics at the

exact same time because that way it will

protect you against some of the side

effects now a couple other things that

can help H pylori Clover and Manuka

Honey either or has been known to reduce

the infection of H pylori so number one

H pylori number two metformin one of the

side effects of metformin is a

deficiency of B12 as well as B1 okay so

if you’re on Metformin you better be

taking B12 and B1 if someone’s a

diabetic a lot of times they’ll develop

what’s called peripheral neuropathy on

the bottom of their feet they’ll have

like numbness tingling things like that

and the remedy is taking some of these B

vitamins like B1 in the form of

benphotamine to help reverse it but if

you don’t know that and you’re taking

metformin that’s creating a worsening of

this B1 slash B12 deficiency

this could be the reason why your

peripheral neuropathy and other

neuropathy problems are not going away

the medication is supposed to help you

is actually worsening the situation

number three is Snips now what is Snips

genetic variations is that give you a

propensity or a susceptibility of having

certain problems if your environment

isn’t just right well there are three

genes that I know of that I’m not going

to get into that detail of that but you

should just know there are genes that

are involved with the conversion or

activation of B12 as well as the

absorption of B12 and it’s not uncommon

to have a variation of a gene that

doesn’t allow you to absorb the 12. and

this is simply because the genetics that

you were born with don’t allow for the

maximum absorption of B12 and so when

I’ve been recently looking at DNA

testing with certain people that’s kind

of showing up quite often

problem with B12 and they had no idea

and so the solution for that is to take

a natural form of B12 don’t overtake the

synthetic version the natural one is

called methylcobolamine and the

synthetic version is called

cyanobolamine another solution is to

start consuming foods high in B12 the

natural version which would be red meat

and beef liver all right the fourth

reason why people are deficient in B12

is that they are taking synthetic

folic acid okay so folic acid is in our

Foods as a fortification as an

enhancement as an enrichment they use

folic acid in pretty much all the

cereals that you hopefully are not

eating they also put it in the breads

the pasta the crackers the biscuits

grain products right anything that’s

refined it’s in nutritional yeast it’s

in a lot of the supplements it’s in a

lot of the energy bars that people have

and unfortunately it can build up in the

body to a point where it’s toxic

especially if someone has a genetic

problem with folic acid which is very

common and what happens with this

consumption of this folic acid okay or

this accumulation of folic acid is you

start to hide a deficiency of B12 and

that can create big problems with B12

methylfolate is a good full acid that

doesn’t have to convert okay so it

doesn’t need that enzyme that many

people have a problem with so that’s

something you can do the next cause of a

B12 deficiency is laughing gas right you

go to the dentist and they give you a

laughing gas which I’ve had in the past

and that can create a B12 deficiency and

the last reason is ppis these are

antacids in fact it’s one of the

treatments for h pylori which can then

create a B12 deficiency indirectly so

antacids increase your risk of this H

pylori and so I just wanted to create

this video to increase your awareness on

the six additional reasons why someone

could be B12 deficient and now you know

about them you can do something about

them now since B12 is related to folic

acid if you haven’t seen this video

you should check it out I put it up
