Gary -

Could you briefly summarize the effects of B-12 deficiency? I know that
several of us who have tried the raw vegan diet for an extended period,
especially a heavily fruit-biased version, have experienced dental
problems. Can that be accounted for by a B-12 deficiency?

Thanks,

David

It seems to me that your symptoms are signs of a possible b12
deficiency. I'm not sure why you seem to rule that out, Jo.
