This is a reply to the hidden comment.

I've been vegan since 2002 and haven't taken B12 supplements regularly for at least 10 years. My doctor wanted me to get my level checked since I'm vegan and not taking supplements. I'm in the healthy range.

aziaziazi•6mo ago
What do you mean by "[not] regularly"? Do you eat fortified food instead? If you don’t like the daily intake have you considered the weekly and two-weeks intake ?

Everybody make his own choice so I won’t tell you what to do and as you’re vegan since a long time you already know the danger of B12 deficiency but just in case here’s some documentation. Test for MMA, not B12 (it’s far more reliable).

zoklet-enjoyer•6mo ago
My assumption is that I'm getting enough in fortified foods, but it's not something I've ever actively looked for. Thanks for the MMA tip, I'll look into that. Really though, I should probably just start taking B12 to be safe.
burnt-resistor•6mo ago
Cool. It's the most well-known concern. The side-effects of deficiency are pretty terrible, including depression and neuropathy. While there were many happy and healthy vegans in my college's dorm many moons ago, there was one vegan guy who was definitely deficient based on mood (severe depression) and appearance.

Glad you're not contributing to (bacterial) antibiotic resistance, (viral) pandemics, climate change, resource inefficiency, air/water/soil pollution, or animal cruelty as much as the rest of us. I'm merely a lazy vegetarian.

Found out I was overdosing Vitamin D. Aches and pains everywhere and constantly urinating, because too much calcium in the blood.

"Overdosing D is virtually impossible", they say and sell 100 µg capsules in supermarkets.

Recommendation is however 10 µg and even that is seasonal.

burnt-resistor•6mo ago
Vitamin D is fat soluble, so overdosing is very possible. 4000 IU (100 µg) is the average tolerable upper limit (UL). I'd get checked for kidney stones too, which are possible with Vitamin D, calcium, and Vitamin C overdoses.

At unmitigated baseline, I'd be chronically Vitamin A, iron, and B-12 deprived. I have to take more than the UL of each, but the amounts are periodically recalibrated by blood tests. I have ginormous kidney stones that will eventually need to be removed.

timonoko•6mo ago
I havent even seen a doctor about this. I was complaining to ChatGPT about occasional dizzy spells. It found out some half a dozen other symptoms and the fact I was doing 100µg D made the diagnosis obvious.

-- It worked like a charm, in few days all symptoms were gone.

burnt-resistor•6mo ago
Uh? You shouldn't be taking medical advice from a bot that hallucinates without an ability to fact check its own answers. Get a blood test if you are concerned.
timonoko•6mo ago
I am not concerned. Unlike America we can't get blood tests without doctors orders. Last time I did it it was like €200 and basically useless, because it was just iron deficiency, which old-time doctors diagnosed from color of membrane around the eyes.
whatevaa•6mo ago
It gave them an idea with a simple way to try it out, the person did that, and the problem went away. Nothing wrong with that. A random article on the internet would have been no different in this case.
anthony100•6mo ago
When taking "a lot" of Vitamin D, one should also take an adequate amount of Vitamin K2 and Magnesium. They work synergistically and will prevent leaching of calcium into the bloodstream.
timonoko•6mo ago
Done that. I got my vitamin cocktail recipe from youtube-doctor Joe Rogan.

Restored only magnesium part because it really seems to make sleeping better. Other shit comes from food from now on.
