Raw Foods, Vitamin B, and the Holidays
Now, if you’re thinking, okay, what do raw foods, vitamin B, and the Holidays have in common? Guess what? Vitamin B is in all three, but the absorption of vitamin B, well now, that’s another matter! People who eat plenty of raw foods, tend to have better absorption, except in one area, which I will explain later in this article.
I would like to encourage you to make sure you use “an ounce of prevention”, to avoid the “pound of cure” that many have to take, from their poor habits. As someone once said to me, it’s not so much what you do eat, but what you don’t eat, that gets you in real trouble. So, in this article, I will explain the most common health problems from a lack of vitamin B, the risks of not getting vitamin B12 specifically, and what can hinder us from absorbing them.
