Bloodwork question about vitamin B12. Baseline, three weeks in, and the numbers moved in a direction I did not expect.
The comparison group matters more than the compound when the outcome is something as fuzzy as focus.
Cold storage, light protection, and a date on the vial. Boring, and it removes half the variables.
Fat soluble means it accumulates, so the dose ceiling is not theoretical.
What would change your mind about this?
Baseline first.
Narrow conclusion.
An inconclusive account is useful if it stops the next person mistaking a story for a controlled comparison. Nausea on an empty stomach was my main issue with vitamin B12 too.
Baseline first. Without a baseline the after picture is decoration.
Sterility is the part people wave through and it is the part that actually bites. Not on vitamin B12 but the pattern is familiar.
Narrow conclusion, briefly right. Broad conclusion, interestingly wrong. I know which I keep choosing. Not on vitamin B12 but the pattern is familiar.
Is a baseline blood test really necessary before starting something like this?
How long before you can reasonably say something is or is not doing anything?
Narrow conclusion, briefly right. Broad conclusion, interestingly wrong. I know which I keep choosing. Currently on vitamin B12 myself.
Read methods. Same for me with vitamin B12, unfortunately.
Where does the human data stop and the extrapolation begin? That is the whole thread.
Stupid question: how do you know whether what is in the vial matches the label at all?
Log dose, time and sleep. Ten seconds a day and it turns the anecdote into something you can look at.
Test one thing at a time. It feels slower and it is the only way to learn anything.
