Vitamin B12 is a microbe -- a bacteria -- which is produced by microorganisms. Vitamin B12 is the only vitamin that contains a trace element -- cobalt -- which gives this vitamin its chemical name, cobalamin, which is at the center of its molecular structure. Humans and all vertebrates require cobalt, although it is assimilated only in the form of Vitamin B12.
If you want to take Vitamin B12, be sure you know how much you need for your body size and don't overdose on it. Get more information from a homeopath or from your medical doctor.
It is possible to get Vitamin B12 from vegetarian sources, such as yeast and seaweed. Initially, it was thought that these foods contain a type of B12 that cannot be digested by the human body. However, new research indicates that humans can, in fact, digest and absorb Vitamin B12 found in spirulina and marine plankton.are ei
There are many sublingual supplements on the market you can take to ensure you are getting enough B12. I suggest sublingual, as the body does not absorb it well enough via the stomach and liver. With sublingual, it goes right into the bloodstream.
Aloe Vera contains Vitamin B12. It is a great source of this important vitamin because it contains other vitamins and many other ingredients such as minerals, enzymes, sugars, natural cleansers and more. Aloe Vera would be considered the best source for most nutrients that the body needs because it is a rich cocktail of all these elements whose combined action and balance produce a more powerful effect together than would be expected from the individual nutrients. Use freshly harvested aloe leaves or high quality aloe drink with stabilized aloe vera gel as its principal ingredient.

Just the roots. The green part you eat grows above the ground, like a big weed... if you're lucky and the slugs don't get it first.
Yes: One cup of canned spinach has about 1,000% of your RDA of vitamin K. Cooking veggies that are high in vitamin K seems to have no effect on the vitamin K content.
The reason you don't see the vitamin K content on nutritiondata.com is because it is not required by the FDA - so they show the required listing of vitamins that a certain company has provided.
For a person on blood thinners, misinformation about vitamin K can be deadly. Too much vitamin K will cause your INR to plummet, thereby rendering the blood thinners useless and increasing your chances of blood clots.

I got a spinach quesadilla at a Mexican restaurant and it was wonderful. The next time I ordered it, it had a strong smell of ammonia. I have to conclude it was because of the bag. I have noticed that lettuce goes bad quickly in these bags and has funny rotting smells. I think it is due to the bad but have no proof. Hoever, the same chemicals that make fruit ripen could build up in one of these bags and make food smell odd. I have gotten salad at restaurants before that has something granular on it. I wish food preparers would wash veggies more carefully.
