Thank you Stacey for posting the article here, it's relevant to us indeed.

Personally, since I take B12 the one part that stood out most to me was .....

Then there’s vitamin B12, which comes from activated sewage sludge.

What the!!! I order my B12 from America in the form of "Nerve Support Formula" because Australian Chemists (drug stores) don't sell Benfotiamine.

I agree that the world is not as healthy a place as it was hundreds of years ago due to soil depletion, over farming, toxins, etc. Humans are the most destructive animal on the planet, and I'm just glad I've lived in an age where it's even possible to gain some vitamin advantage from our fruit & veg.

I buy organic, always. If I could, I'd grow my own. I don't have the land to run a small farm, wish I did.

We don't have much of a choice. If we don't take the B12 supplements, then we don't gain the benefits.

Thanks again for linking the article, it was a good read.

Try not to be scared of everything you read though. I'm sure someone has written an article about the dangers of eating organically.

It's life, there is good and bad to everything we do. We have to do what we think is best and hope our body forgives us if we get it wrong.
