If its not naturally and adequately abundant in any of its whole foods, what’s the big deal?
Are you simple or something?
B12 isn’t abundant in any plant foods and it’s a pretty big deal. Resveratrol, in my opinion, is a fad that’s long overdue going away. David Sinclair touted it as an anti-aging molecule and now he’s promoting some other substances that probably won’t pan out either. But it sure does keep the funding going into his lab and gives him a very comfortable lifestyle.
Food alone can’t cure aging.
It can help people bring down blood sugar levels and make certain conditions from diabetes like lower limb and foot ulcers more manageable. That’s the big deal.
@Mr.N0.0ne notice I said *”adequately abundant”* meaning – having enough to be effective.
you only need B12 in trace amounts to for it be effective.

At least he is still correct in stating that animal based foods do not protect against anything and just help make cells, including cancer cells, grow.
In other words: a nothingburger. Nonetheless, this is how we learn. It was a good thing this substance was found and we tested it, so is science. Now we move on.
