Please read the article in its entirety. It gives you my top suggestions for the best form of B12.

When your B-12 is elevated in lab work, it often means you are not absorbing the B-12 you’re taking, instead it circulates in the bloodstream or sits on blood cells without being properly utilized, or you may not have enough beneficial bacteria in your gut to manufacture B-12, B-12 is not derived from animal protein, B-12 is manufactured within the gut microbiome, if you are not consuming enough beneficial bacteria from whole plant foods, your body cannot properly produce and utilize B-12.

The usable forms of B-12, such as methylcobalamin and adenosylcobalamin, are naturally supported through plant life, which receives energy from the sun through photosynthesis, this energy supports the biological processes that allow beneficial bacteria and living systems to produce and utilize B-12, when animals eat plants, this B-12 is immediately converted into usable energy and must be replenished daily, it does not accumulate in muscle tissue or get stored in the flesh.

When animals eat plants, beneficial bacteria in their gut help manufacture B-12, that B-12 is then used by the animal for its own metabolic needs, it does not accumulate in muscle meat, this same process applies to humans, eating animal flesh does not provide usable B-12 because B-12 is not stored in muscle tissue, whether it’s fish, chicken, beef, lamb, sardines, or eggs, therefore promoting these foods as a B-12 source is misinformation.

B-12 is naturally created in your microbiome, every living species produces B-12 according to its own needs, just as protein is converted in the body according to your bio-individual requirements after you eat, not before, the liver, which carries out over 2,000 chemical processes, creates and converts the protein necessary for your specific needs, your body makes what it requires from the foods you consume, not from pre-formed protein sitting in animal flesh.

As for B-12 injections, they are typically in the form of cyanocobalamin, which is a synthetic form, the body may not properly recognize or utilize this form, which can lead to elevated lab values without true cellular absorption, when the body cannot properly utilize a synthetic compound, the immune system may recognize it as an unwanted substance, creating additional stress on the immune system rather than supporting cellular function.

The best way to support healthy B-12 levels, which your body needs for countless functions, is to nourish your microbiome with foods rich in beneficial bacteria, including leafy greens, sprouts, microgreens, fruits, fresh herbs, and when appropriate, a high-quality plant-based B-12 supplement such as Vimergy or Earth Harmony.

As a practitioner, I work with many meat eaters who are deficient in B-12, once their diets are cleaned up and their liver and gut health is supported, their levels improve, and they don’t necessarily have to eliminate meat, as long as the foundational diet and gut health are properly addressed.

As I sit here today, my heart is heavy for everyone affected by the devastating fires in Colorado.

I have two sisters-in-law who live there. Both are in their older years, and one of them built her dream retirement home just a few years ago after a lifetime of hard work. Like so many others, they have now had to evacuate, leaving behind everything they know and love, not knowing what they will find when they are finally able to return. As I understand it, the fire is now only about a mile and a half from one of their homes.

This fire is one of the worst in Colorado History have
Ing burnt over 80000 acres so far.

I can't imagine what it must feel like to drive away from your home with only what you can carry, wondering if it will still be standing when this is over. My heart aches not only for my family but for every family facing that same fear and uncertainty today.

We have already lost brave lives in this tragedy, and my prayers are with their loved ones. I am also deeply grateful for the courageous firefighters, first responders, law enforcement, and emergency personnel who continue to put themselves in harm's way to protect others. They are true heroes.

Please join me in praying for everyone affected. Pray that God will place His hand of protection over every community, strengthen those fighting these fires, bring comfort to those who have already suffered loss, and, if it is His will, send the rain these communities so desperately need.
Whether it’s too late or whether it’s not, we still need the prayers.

Sometimes prayer is the greatest gift we can give. Today, I ask you to remember Colorado in your prayers and to lift up every family waiting and hoping for good news.

May God surround them all with His peace, His protection, and His mercy.

God bless.
Thank you.
Hon. Diana Starr.

Snoring is not an isolated condition all by itself. It’s an entire body dysfunctioning matter caused by an overburdened, sluggish lymphatic system, and a congested liver.

There is nothing you can take to make snoring disappear overnight. These are all marketing trends that don’t address the body as a whole as I would in holistic medicine. The issue is much broader: sleep disorders, respiratory congestion, and lymphatic sluggishness are all connected.

Deep sleep is disrupted by a combination of an overloaded liver, heavy metal toxicity, and low-grade viral activity in the central nervous system.

A heavy, toxic liver working overtime at night forces the heart to pump harder, causing restless sleep, elevated body temperature, and heavy breathing or gasping.

Viral and Toxic Load: Low-grade chronic viral infections, such as Epstein-Barr, mixed with toxic heavy metals weaken nerves and can lead to inflammation in the throat, sinus cavities, and lymphatic system.

A diet high in troublemaker foods such as eggs, dairy, wheat, corn, and soy feeds pathogens, creating excess mucus that narrows the nasal and throat airways.

My Top Suggestions to Address the Root Cause

Eat more fruits and vegetables. Fruit provides the clean, medicinal glucose your liver and brain require. Abundant fruits and vegetables hydrate tissues and help flush toxins.
Lower your fat intake. Excess dietary fat thickens the blood, burdens the liver, and stagnates circulation and lymphatic flow.
Eliminate dairy, eggs, wheat, corn, and soy. These are troublemaker foods that feed pathogens and create mucus, congestion, and inflammation in the airways.
Replace heavy oils and vinegar. Use fresh lemon, raw honey, and pure maple syrup on your salad instead of heavy oils that contribute to a sluggish liver and vinegar that robs your bones and teeth of calcium.

Targeted Support: Add Vimergy B12, Vimergy Organic Liquid Zinc Sulfate, Vimergy Lemon Balm, Vimergy Ashwagandha, and Vimergy Micro-Immune Powder to support the nervous system, liver, and immune response.

Snoring, sleep disruption, and respiratory congestion are signals from the body. It’s not about treating symptoms. It’s about building wellness by addressing the liver, lymphatic system, viral load, and toxic burden together.

OXALATES, LECTINS, SPINACH, AND THE WAR ON REAL FOOD 🌻

By Tonijean Amato Kulpinski, BCNP, AADP

Before you keep scrolling, read this entire article. It will only take a few minutes, and what you’re about to learn may completely change the way you look at food, health, and healing.

As many of you know, I have had tremendous success helping people tremendously improve their health. One of the questions I am asked most often by doctors, nurse practitioners, holistic practitioners, and people struggling with chronic symptoms is, “What do you do differently?” My answer is simple. I refuse to fear real food, and I refuse to blame real food, genetics, hormones, age, and the immune system for every health problem under the sun.

Every few years the health industry creates a new villain. First it was fruit. Then carbohydrates. Then potatoes. Then tomatoes. Then bananas, Then lectins. Then oxalates. The list goes on and on. Meanwhile, people are becoming sicker, more confused, and more frightened of the very foods that have nourished human beings for generations.

Let’s start with oxalates. An oxalate is an ion or mineral salt that occurs naturally throughout nature. Oxalates are found in plants, animal flesh, and countless living systems. Yet somehow, a naturally occurring compound has been turned into the latest health scare. The truth is that oxalates are not unique to spinach. They are not unique to fruits. They are not unique to vegetables. They exist throughout nature. Yet the anti-oxalate movement continues to focus almost exclusively on a small group of healing foods while ignoring the bigger picture.

And spinach seems to take the biggest hit.

Spinach has become one of the most unfairly criticized foods in modern nutrition discussions. It contains vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, chlorophyll, fiber, and countless beneficial compounds. Yet people are being taught to fear it because of one naturally occurring component that exists throughout nature. To me, that makes absolutely no sense.

The same thing has happened with lectins. The lectin fear movement claims that foods containing naturally occurring lectins should be avoided. Yet lectins are carbohydrate-binding proteins found throughout nature in fruits, vegetables, legumes, grains, nuts, and seeds. Think about that for a moment. If lectins were truly the enemy, what exactly would be left to eat?

What many people fail to realize is that lectins and alkaloids are not the same thing. Certain wild plants produce alkaloids as part of their natural defense systems. These compounds help protect plants from insects and grazing animals. Lectins are entirely different compounds. Yet these concepts often get blended together and presented as though they are identical. They are not.

The result is that people become afraid of tomatoes because they are nightshades. They become afraid of potatoes because of lectins. They become afraid of spinach because of oxalates. They become afraid of fruit because of naturally occurring sugar. In my opinion, fear has become one of the driving forces behind modern nutrition, and it keeps people distracted from looking at the bigger picture.

What frustrates me most is that the health industry has become obsessed with isolating one tiny component of a food and convincing people that this isolated component is either the greatest thing in the world or the most dangerous thing in the world. Protein is a chain of amino acids found throughout living organisms. Carbohydrates are compounds made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Oxalates are naturally occurring mineral salts. Lectins are carbohydrate-binding proteins. These are all naturally occurring compounds found throughout nature. Yet every few years one of them gets pulled out of context and turned into the latest obsession or the latest health scare. These are just profit driven marketing strategies.

The average person hears a scientific word and immediately assumes there must be danger attached to it. In my opinion, that is because fear is powerful. Fear sells books. Fear sells programs. Fear sells supplements. Fear generates clicks, views, and engagement. Most importantly, fear keeps people endlessly searching for answers while becoming more disconnected from the foods that have nourished humanity for centuries.

Meanwhile, spinach gets blamed. Tomatoes get blamed. Potatoes get blamed. Fruit gets blamed. Beans get blamed. Every few years it is the same story with a different scientific term attached to it.

One of the biggest mistakes I see people make is assuming that because symptoms appear after eating a food, the food itself must be guilty. Sometimes a person eats a food and experiences symptoms afterward. The immediate conclusion becomes, “The food caused it.” But what if the food is not the entire story? What if something deeper was already present beneath the surface? What if an underlying issue deserves further investigation? What if the food simply becomes the easiest thing to blame?

These are the questions I encourage people to ask.

In my experience, many people become so focused on a food that they stop looking at everything else that may be contributing to their symptoms. The conversation becomes centered around oxalates, lectins, carbohydrates, sugar, or some other isolated component instead of looking at the body as a whole. Foods are not isolated compounds. Foods are complex packages containing thousands of naturally occurring compounds working together in ways we still do not fully understand. Yet somehow people have become terrified of spinach because of oxalates, afraid of tomatoes because they are nightshades, concerned about potatoes because of lectins, and frightened of fruit because it contains naturally occurring sugar.

At some point we have to step back and ask ourselves whether we are looking at the whole picture or whether we have become distracted by individual components taken out of context. I have watched health trends come and go for decades. Low-fat, high-fat, low-carb, carnivore, keto, juicing, fasting, intermittent fasting, milk cleanses, bone broth cleanses, supplement stacks, and countless other trends have all had their moment in the spotlight. Yet one thing remains remarkably consistent. The foods that continue to appear in healthy dietary patterns around the world are fruits, vegetables, herbs, leafy greens, sunlight, and other whole foods.

That is why I refuse to participate in the war on real food. I will continue encouraging people to think critically. I will continue encouraging people to ask questions. I will continue encouraging people to look beyond fear-based headlines and marketing campaigns. Most importantly, I will continue encouraging people to remember that fruits, vegetables, leafy greens, herbs, and other whole foods have nourished humanity for generations.

Now, please, by all means, eat with God, created for food in a form, healthy for the body and ignore all of these marketing strategies with that’s exactly what they are!




Millions of people struggle with weight gain, yet both conventional medicine and much of the alternative health communit...
06/18/2026

Millions of people struggle with weight gain, yet both conventional medicine and much of the alternative health community continue to misunderstand its true cause. We are repeatedly told that weight gain is the result of a slow metabolism, overeating, lack of exercise, aging, or genetics. Unfortunately, these explanations fail to address what is really happening inside the body.

The truth lies within the liver.

Many healthcare professionals, including those within the naturopathic industry, continue to teach that metabolism is responsible for weight gain. However, metabolism has absolutely nothing to do with why people gain weight.

Let’s set the record straight.

The metabolic system encompasses all of the chemical processes that occur within the cells of a living organism to sustain life. These processes break down nutrients, build and repair tissues, produce energy, and support every function necessary for survival. Your metabolic system is constantly working to keep your heart beating, your lungs breathing, and your cells functioning. It is not something that slows down or speeds up. It is not the reason you are struggling with weight.

The real problem begins long before the weight appears.

For years, and often decades, the liver quietly stores excess fat. Every high-fat meal, every high-protein dietary trend, every ketogenic phase, and every period of excessive fat consumption places an additional burden on the liver. At the same time, the liver is also storing toxins, pathogens, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, heavy metals, and other pollutants that it cannot immediately eliminate.

Unlike what most people have been taught, weight gain is not the result of a metabolism that has somehow slowed down. The real issue is that the liver gradually becomes overloaded from years of accumulating excess fat and toxic burdens.

As the liver fills with stored fat and becomes increasingly congested, it loses efficiency. It becomes more difficult for the liver to perform its hundreds of critical functions, including filtering toxins, processing nutrients, regulating blood sugar, and managing fat storage. Eventually, the liver reaches a point where it can no longer keep up with the growing burden being placed upon it.

When this happens, symptoms begin to appear. One of the most common symptoms is weight gain. What many people fail to realize is that their weight problem is not being caused by a slow metabolism at all. It is often the result of a liver that has become increasingly burdened and congested over years of accumulating excess fat, toxins, pathogens, and heavy metals.

This is why millions of people continue to gain weight despite exercising regularly, counting calories, and following the latest dietary trends. Weight gain is not simply about calories consumed versus calories burned. It is often a reflection of an overwhelmed, congested, and struggling liver.

Many people are also led to believe that hypothyroidism is the cause of their weight gain because the thyroid is not producing enough so-called metabolism-boosting hormones. However, this explanation overlooks a much deeper issue.
The thyroid is not the root cause.

The real problem is that pathogens and toxins burden the liver and eventually contribute to thyroid dysfunction. When the thyroid becomes affected, weight gain often follows, but the liver’s struggle began long before the thyroid symptoms appeared.

Another common misconception is that aging itself causes weight gain.

In reality, age is not the culprit. As we grow older, our livers accumulate more toxins, pathogens, heavy metals, pharmaceuticals, pollutants, and excess fat. If nothing is done to support and cleanse the liver, these burdens continue to build year after year. Sadly, age often gets blamed for the symptoms while the true cause—liver overload—goes unrecognized.

The Epstein-Barr Virus Connection

The Epstein-Barr virus can weaken the liver during its Stage Two, leaving behind cells that continue to cause trouble even after the virus moves on to the thyroid. These lingering cells feed on toxins, further straining the liver.

The accumulation of viral byproducts, dead viral cells, neurotoxins, dermatoxins, heavy metals, and other pollutants places an enormous burden on both the liver and the lymphatic system. At the same time, the adrenal glands often compensate for a struggling thyroid by releasing excessive amounts of adrenaline. While adrenaline can provide temporary relief, it is corrosive and damaging, creating an additional toxic burden that the liver must process and store.

The result is a perfect storm.

An overburdened liver, congested lymphatic system, viral activity, toxic accumulation, and chronic adrenal stress create an environment where weight becomes increasingly difficult to lose and, in many cases, continues to rise despite a person’s best efforts.

These are the hundreds of toxins, pathogens, and pollutants stored within our livers and passed down through generations. Even the healthiest babies are born with compromised livers because pathogens and heavy metals are passed down through the bloodstream from one generation to the next.

To truly understand weight gain, we must understand what is overwhelming the liver.

One of the greatest contributors to liver congestion and chronic weight gain is the modern obsession with high-protein, high-fat diets. Whether it is a ketogenic diet, carnivore diet, high-fat vegan diet, or any other eating plan centered around excessive fat consumption, the result is the same: increased stress and burden on the liver and lymphatic system.

The liver was never designed to process the excessive amounts of fat that have become common in today’s diets. As fat levels rise, the blood becomes thick and sticky, making it more difficult for oxygen, glucose, nutrients, and other critical compounds to reach the cells efficiently. The liver must work harder to filter and process this burden while simultaneously dealing with toxins, pathogens, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and heavy metals.

Many people mistakenly believe these diets are helping them because they may experience temporary weight loss. However, the weight loss often comes at a significant cost. The body is forced into a fat-burning state while the liver and lymphatic system continue to struggle under an ever-increasing burden. Rather than supporting healing, these diets can further congest the liver, impair its ability to function optimally, and make it more difficult for the body to recover.

Whether a person consumes large amounts of animal fat or high-fat plant-based foods, excessive fat remains excessive fat. The liver does not distinguish between the source when it becomes overwhelmed. Over time, this continual burden contributes to liver stagnation, lymphatic congestion, blood sugar instability, hormonal imbalances, fatigue, inflammation, and weight gain.

The liver needs relief, not more work.

Fresh fruits, leafy greens, vegetables, herbs, and healthy carbohydrates provide the body with the nutrients and glucose necessary to support healing and restore proper liver function. Limiting fat intake while increasing healing foods can help create an environment where the body can finally begin to repair, recover, and release excess weight naturally.

Rescuing the liver takes time.

It is important to understand that the liver was struggling long before symptoms appeared. Once the proper healing strategies are implemented, the body requires patience and consistency as it works to restore balance. Weight loss does not happen overnight because the liver must first repair and rebuild itself before it can effectively release stored fat and toxic waste.

By understanding the true cause of weight gain and focusing on reducing the burden placed upon the liver, we can finally break free from the cycle of chronic weight struggles and create the conditions necessary for genuine healing and long-term wellness.

The Beef Tallow Trend: A Dangerous Step Backward

As a Board-Certified Naturopathic Practitioner, I am deeply concerned about the growing popularity of beef tallow. Just because something was done hundreds of years ago does not mean it was healthy, wise, or beneficial. History is filled with practices that we have since learned were harmful.

Beef tallow is a highly concentrated saturated fat that places a tremendous burden on the body, particularly the liver. When the bloodstream becomes overloaded with heavy fats, the blood thickens and becomes sluggish. Thick blood carries less oxygen throughout the cardiovascular system, forcing the heart to work harder to circulate it.

The liver is then pushed into overdrive, struggling to produce excess bile in an attempt to break down these concentrated fats. Over time, this continual strain can contribute to liver stagnation, sluggishness, weight gain, and fatty liver disease. An overburdened liver cannot function at its highest capacity.

Heavy fats such as beef tallow also create a detour in the bloodstream. Instead of allowing the liver to efficiently filter toxins, metabolic waste, and unwanted substances, circulating fat acts as a barrier that slows the body’s natural cleansing processes. The result is a congested internal environment that can make healing more difficult.

The lymphatic system suffers as well. Unlike the circulatory system, the lymphatic system has no pump of its own. When excessive fats are continually consumed, lymphatic fluid can become sluggish and stagnant, reducing the body’s ability to move waste products efficiently. This congestion contributes to inflammation and places additional stress on an already burdened liver.

The human body does not run on large amounts of concentrated fat. The body runs on critical clean glucose. Therefore, excess fat gets stored because it’s not a fuel source. The human biology thrives on oxygen, hydration, mineral salts, fruits, vegetables, leafy greens, and clean glucose from whole foods. When we continually overload the body with radical fats, we create obstacles to healing rather than supporting it.

And slathering beef tallow on your skin doesn’t give your liver a free pass either. What goes on the skin must ultimately be processed by the body, creating yet another burden for the liver.

Trends come and go, but physiology remains the same. Before following the latest social media craze, ask yourself whether it is truly supporting your liver, your blood, your lymphatic system, and your long-term health.
