“Billions of health care dollars are being wasted on undiagnosed B-12 deficiency.”
– Sally M. Pacholok, R.N.
“I just want to emphasize the point that everybody is low in B-12. It is a big problem.”

Researchers at the University of Colorado School of Pharmacy warn that prolonged use of acid-suppressing drugs such as cimetidine (Tagamet), ranitidine (Zantac) and omeprazole (Losec) can lead to a serious vitamin-B-12 deficiency.
“I was absolutely amazed when I looked at the research: Raw Food Vegan B-12 levels are dismal . . . Most Raw Vegans are extremely deficient in B-12, and that will counteract almost every advantage you are giving yourself through your Raw Vegan Diet.”
– Brenda Davis, RN

“Low B-12 levels go along with high homocysteine levels. If you are eating a plant-based diet, and you have low B-12 levels, you almost certainly have high homocysteine.
As a nutritionist and researcher, I can tell you that the low B-12, high homocysteine combination can potentially wipe out the health protective benefits you should be deriving from eating a plant-based diet. I cannot state this strongly enough.”
– David Rainoshek, M.A., Author of Vitamin B-12 Exposed
“It is my medical opinion, as a vegan since 1973 and live fooder since 1983, and as a person committed to supporting all those who choose to become healthy live food vegans, that it would be wise to incorporate some B-12 supplementation in your diet.
I believe it is more natural to be healthy than it is to be anything less than that.”
– Gabriel Cousens, M.D.
