I originally blogged in March at http://forums.phoenixrising.me/index.php?entries/freddds-b-12-protocol.1104/
I am not confident in what I'm doing, but I am starting. Freddd has some new slow titration startup advice.
I took 1/2 Pure Encapsulations B Complex Plus. A 1/2 pill has 200 mcg Metafolin. 20 minutes later I had noticed very little effect. I took 1/4 Enzymatic Therapy mb12 under my tongue. After an hour, I was wanting to take more. I had different tingly feelings in different spots. I had some fuzzy feeling in my head, but I wondered if it was from having a poor first meal of the day. I started feeling better and better. I had a good large meal and was tired. I took a second 1/2 B Complex Plus 3 hours after the first. I waited a little and took a second 1/4 ET mb12.
I'm glad I had no bad symptoms so far. Tomorrow I could probably tolerate twice as much, spread out during the day.
I am worried that I'll have good benefit from addressing my B5, B6, and other B deficiencies, but that the benefits will stop. I am sure I have some B deficiencies.
I probably need to order the liquid acetyl l-carnitine. I probably need to add zinc, calcium, and vitamin E, but I want to research this. I think I read something negative about vitamin E supplementation. I think I am getting much less than the RDA for zinc. Money is tight.
My daily supplements before starting:
50-75 mg B2
99 mg potassium (I know this will need increasing)
150 mcg molybdenum
8000 IU D3
500 mg garlic
1/2 serving probiotic
1100 mg wild salmon oil
180-250 mg magnesium citrate (trying to at least double it)
2-3 grains Thyroid-s
380 mg feverfew
470-940 mg butcher's broom root
500-2000 mg ascorbic acid (trying to take 2000 mg)
10 mg zyrtec
