In this video Dr. Michael Greger M.D., the director of Public Health and Animal Agriculture at the Humane Society of the United States explains why the vitamin b-12 found in human colons is useless for human nutritional needs. Interestingly, the video also points out how meat eaters are coming up deficient in vitamin b-12 and that the people with the healthiest vitamin b-12 levels are people who supplements ( fortified foods are just supplements blended into food ).





The video on nutritionfacts.org(with sources cited.

Dr. Greger mentioned those things because many raw food gurus tell their followers that they do not need vitamin b-12 supplements because there is b-12 in the human colon. This is true, but it is useless to human nutrition.
