> You argue to debunk requires no one to claim recovery then go on to say B12 deficiencies are real and can be treated

B12 deficiencies are real and can be measured. Everyone who has a B12 deficiency and supplements B12 back into normal ranges will improve. This is an example of real science.

Using B12 and Folate to treat pseudoscientific “methylation” issues that are presumed (rather than measured) based on vague symptom reports that go in both directions (e.g. some people feel better, some people feel worse) is the pseudoscience.

What?

No, one side uses real science and the other side uses pseudoscience. That’s literally the definition of the word.

Measurable B12 deficiencies are real and supported by the science. Explaining everything, including anxiety, as caused by “methylation status” is not.



view as:

You missed my point and took a side in a tribal war. Then try to discredit the other side by putting in a qualifier of 'real' to change the meaning of science to something you can control by limiting who fits into this new group to whoever you decide.
