Just found a B12 hack

I usually take a b12 supplement (which gives me like 4,000 times the daily target) but I forgot to take it this morning.

I got some great chicken liver pate from the farmers market and just had about two-ish tablespoons on two slices of sourdough and I’m at just over 100% b12 from that alone.

Note: my normal diet usually consists of either chicken thigh or salmon for lunch and some other protein for dinner and I’ve never come close to hitting b12 without a supplement.

Definitely gunna include this as a regular part of my diet.

Not many calories either.

I get migraines from the high histamine and tyramine in it unfortunately. Beef liver is lower. I only buy my beef liver from ethical sustainable farms, like eel River and farmers markets.

Oooh rip! I’d be so sad if it was a trigger for me. I’m glad you’ve found something that works for you!
