Heh. I've been taking B-12 supplement pill daily for over a year based
on the recommendation of the doc at the VA following the first round of
blood tests.

Two following appointments and blood tests since the B-12 level was
within normal range.

I just had another blood test last week and an appointment this morning
to review the results.

The normal range for B-12 is from 600 to 900 (somethings). Mine
was near 1,600. Doc was mystified a bit until I told her that I
was on a shrimp kick for a couple of weeks just prior to the bloodwork.

Turns out that four (4) medium sized shrimp contains 75 percent of the
B-12 you need daily. I had been eating a lot more than that.

But, I also read up on shrimp. As much as I like 'em, farm raised
shrimp (which is about all you can find now-a-days) isn't very good for
you. Farm raised shrimp are grown in nasty conditions and are treated
with antibiotics and other harmful crap that you ingest. So much for
shrimp. No more.
