Hello,
I am curious about the condition of animals from conventional farming that never go to pastures and often do not even encounter green forage. Do such animals not suffer from a B12 deficiency? Which would mean that their products would not be rich in this vitamin either.
Thank you for the answer.
Such a situation does not cause a significant deficiency of B12, but primarily of omega-3 fats. It has been observed that animals living in the wild and feeding on a natural diet have a substantially higher proportion of O3 than animals in conventional farming. If there is a concern about the lower amount of B12 in meat, it is possible to include offal in the diet, which is richest in this vitamin (liver is the best in this regard).
