I have vit b12 shots, I have had nothing but problems because I was brought up not to eat meat, I was very low in ferratin so now I take supplement, eat meat because my lips had a blue tinge, depression, psychosis, breathing problems. Black strap molasses too. Thanks for sharing.
I have been suffering from extreme fatigue the last few months. I got a blood test and my Doctor told me last week that I am deficient in Folate. I purchased Methylfolate with no knowledge that I have the MTHFR gene. Does that matter? In other words: is supplementing Methylfolate superior than supplementing Folate or Folic Acid for everyone that is deficient?
Hello Dr Mungli. Love every video of yours. thank you for posting such informative content. i had a question re. Homocysteine. Doesnt Homocysteine increase with folate deficiency? at the end of the video it says Homocysteine decreases in Folate and Cobalamin deficiency. Can you clarify pls. thanks
Dr Mungli, Have you seen this happen: Starting with elevated homocysteine and MMA, treating with oral folate and IM cobalamine, and then have normal homocysteine but elevated MMA? No change in symptoms. Have any thoughts on that? I know you aren't my doctor, but mine is stumped on my labs and symptoms. More detail: After daily loading doses B12, MMA came down to near normal, then homocysteine came down, and MMA went back up within a very short time. After 8weekly IM B12, homocysteine was normal and MMA was elevated. At this point, my primary care physician is managing this and is stumped. Unsuccessful at getting hemetology consult, so far. And prescribed monthly IM B12. Apparent deficiency for over 2years. Developed MCI. Oral B12 did raise serum B12, did not change MMA. I'd love to have some sources to explain this (normal homocysteine with elevated MMA ) if you know any. Huge thanks for any info.
@@madhu_1489 Right, Serum B12 isn't a great measure to assess B12 deficiency. It accurately measures serum B12, but that doesn't tell you about deficiency. Which is why I'm not measuring that or even asking about that. BTW, NO form of oral B12 helped me, not even adenosylcobalamin.
Sir my b12 is 296 pg/ml and vit D is 32 Ng/ml, both are low again after 6 months, Last i was diagoned with the same deficiency, even more lower, it got increased to 496 6 months back, now again reduced so suffering from huge huge hairfall...plz recommend me supplements, as i cant take injection during this pandemic.. One of my family doctor recommend me to take 15 mg folic acid twice a day in place of injections....m confused...plz plz help Sir🙏
Yes, since few months I only make videos with white board. Many viewers said they found that teaching method is more interesting than the ones where they dont see me teaching. Thanks for the feedback.

Why does taking only folate without Vit B12, "aggravate" neurological manifestations of Vit B12 deficiency?

Serum b12 is not accurate ! Take hydroxocobalamin injections or adenosylcobalamin capsules!

@@TurtleMoonTube go have some country side lamb liver raw, freezer the liver for week and have it daily raw like 30 grams a day with lamb spleen too!
@@madhu_1489 Are you joking? I'm Sure my injections are safer than daily, raw liver. And, likely more effective. I'll stick to the injections.

I purchased gentle iron, methylfolate and vit b12 injections online. I felt as if I was slowly dying. I've only been taking a few days so early days.
Sir d videos where u teach wid board n pen give better understanding n seems like u r teaching in a classroom..

Y do u write lk a dickhead?
B12 is water soluble not fat soluble so how its still store in liver
Serum homocysteine level is increased in both or only cobalamin deficiency
Increased in both
Homocysteine won't raise if your are vegan only in non vegetarian with low methyl group vitamins!
Kindly correct me if I'm wrong
Serum homocysteine vl increase in both cases
Methylmalonic acids will also be increased
Cobalamin deficiency causes increased methylmalonic acid and homocysteine.
Very helpful
Glad to hear that
