    B-12 - The Hidden Story

    Is this thread still in use? I wrote to Freddd back on March 17th, and haven't heard from him. I don't see anyone else posting here either. Is there somewhere else I should post questions? I have several more on top of my last post, and could really use the help.

    Active B12 Protocol Basics

    Thanks Ahmo! I'm guessing I'm one of those people who need a huge amount of b12. Maybe I can combine more than one brand of Meb12, with at some of it being the Enzymatic Therapies brand.

    Hi all - While I'm waiting for Fredd to answer my questions I recently posted, I'm wondering if anyone can tell me if Fredd recommends a MeB12 with a higher potency?

    Fredd, thanks so much for answering!!! I'm sending you a virtual holiday hug. Concerning the carnitine - I just purchased the l-carnitine fumarate, but reading your above message, I do have anxiety and I would say I tend to over emphasize fears.

    Fredd, I have one other question in addition to the above. After reading your recommendations I ordered Dr's Best L-carnitine fumarate (855mg). I see you say to start this before anything else. I've already begun to get on the mb12 and methylfolate. Here are my questions: - Should I stop...
