I don't recall suggesting B12 twice a day to you. Something else maybe? SlowMag is twice a day. B12 once a day is the typical way to take it... first thing in the morning on an empty stomach.

Twice a WEEK at the high dose, however, once you reach your goal is what we do here in this house, hubby and I. If I typed twice a day regarding B12 please, show me where, so I can fix it.
It was a typo...and I apologize.

Dr. Seneff's work is far more compelling than the initial work by Dr. Keys, who threw out data to make things fit his theory.
This is explained in The Cholesterol Myths, by Dr. Ravnskov.
Dr. Seneff is doing actual biochemical evaluation of the role of cholesterol in the body....The Cholesterol Myth, has never done that! They only did statistical evaluation of patient populations up until now.

http://www.ravnskov.nu/cholesterol.htm
looks like his book is out of print at this time.
But there is quite a bit on his website still like this:
http://www.ravnskov.nu/myth7.htm
It might still be available on Amazon in their used book section.
http://www.amazon.com/The-Cholestero...9985942&sr=8-2


This link is about a possible consequence of drugs like Nexium:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22781139
besides causing bowel dysbiosis, these GERD drugs are
hard on nutrients... B12, folate, iron, calcium, magnesium, zinc.
The osteoporosis they cause is directly attributed to the calcium and magnesium disruption in absorption that they cause.

Medicine is really built upon odd factoids. It is difficult to wrap your head around the concept of messy beliefs or distortions. But it wasn't so long ago that arsenic and strychnine were common tonics.
When I was first licensed in the beginning of the 70's, these products were still on the shelf..prescribed by doctors.
In fact they go back to the early 1900's. I just saw some vintage antique Parke Davis products on Ebay (to be subjects in art works I am planning) ...here is a photo of them I copied.
The second photo is a really puzzling one. Blaud refers to Dr. Blaud's pills...which was a popular iron compound at the time.
A tonic with poisons in it...including mercuric chloride O.O.
These two photos I suspect are about 1930-1950 era. The Bakelite caps are dating. Most caps by the 70's were metal.
Prior to Bakelite, bottles like this had corks.

It won't be long now that statins will be "historical" too. Things today are not much better.
Proton pump inhibitors:

Only the terminology is more complex... still there are iatrogenic consequences to treatments even today.

So if you have that link handy to the B12 that perhaps has the typo...please post it so I can fix it.
