(B-complex pills are good to ingest regularly.).

Andrew Lessman’s CoQ10 and Essential-1. My B-12 was so high the nurse asked if I was getting injections. I take his D3, Turmeric, along with “The Vitamin Shoppe” Quercetin w/ C and zinc. Helps fight aging too.

Out of curiosity, if you press in gently with your finger and make a circular motion with your finger under your right side lower rib on your chest, is it super tender and/or painful?

I’ve found it to be very tender or painful with 100% of people with autoimmune diseases. (If you use the middle finger on your right hand it is easy to locate the tender area).

The is also where the liver releases alkaline solutions through the bile ducts into the pyloric arch to neutralize the stomach acids as the chime enters the small intestine. This is where the environment changes to alkaline thus allowing the intrinsic factor buffering to dissolve, facilitating the B12 to be absorbed.

Much of my research is to determine the underlying subconscious psychological programming that causes a reversal in immune function. For example, I’ve found a perceived trauma involving the person’s father figure around age five in individuals with MS.

Cutters and self mutilators the perceived trauma is usually around age three.

In cancer it varies greatly, but in 100% of the subjects there is an internalization of emotion.

I’ve found that the underlying cause of most illnesses is in the emotional subconscious. I often refer to it as the reverse placebo effect.

The perceptual programming of consciousness is based upon the perceptions of a child and very often do not represent reality.

When that location feels as though you stuck your finger into a cactus. It is time to see a Dr.
for a checkup.

I’ve often wondered why they don’t just make a buffered B12 that cannot dissolve in the high acidic environment of the stomach.

One other unusual question...

Antihistamines?

The G cells or Gastrin cells in the stomach release gastrin into the bloodstream as a hormone that creates a histamine response that is the triggering stimulus for the parietal cells to release intrinsic factor and HCL.

Antihistamines will hinder this process

The vagus nerve innervates the Gastrin cells. Thus I usually feel pressure or a headache in the cerebellum at the base of the skull in back, just above the neck as the vagus nerve gets over stimulated and influences the sense of balance. The vagus nerve (10th cranial nerve) splits in the brain stem and half of the stimulus goes to the cerebellum. This is the same part of the brain influenced by alcohol consumption as a field sobriety test is actually testing the influence of alcohol on the cerebellum.

I gave up crossword puzzles as studying the human body and soul is far more interesting.

Here is a link to a really good journal article on understanding B12 deficiency causes.

Also

Holotranscobalamin, a marker of vitamin B-12 status: analytical aspects and clinical utility

Approximately one-quarter of circulating cobalamin (vitamin B-12) binds to transcobalamin (holoTC) and is thereby available for the cells of the body. For this reason, holoTC is also referred to as active vitamin B-12.

Methylmalonic acid (MMA) is a substance that is created when your body digests protein. The amount of vitamin B12 in your body controls how much MMA your body makes. A high amount of MMA typically means you have a vitamin B12 deficiency.‌

“Antihistamines?”

Antihistamines are among the many medications that i am unable to utilize because my CYP4502D6 hepatic pathway got whacked by something twenty years ago (probably chronic Lyme disease), so metabolization of 2D6 medications (which is about 1/3 of all meds and includes antihistamines)is about ten times slower for me than normal.

actually, no super tenderness or pain when i palpated there as you suggested ... i do know the kind of pain you’re talking about though, as i’ve had that kind of intense pain in the lower left quadrant of the abdomen at times due to diverticulosis ...

That is the most common cytochrome p450 enzyme for detoxing the body.

You can accidentally overdose without taking extra meds... they build up in the body.
