Do you need a vitamin B12 supplement? The answer is yes if you are eating any type of plant-based diet or are over the age of 50. And no, it doesn't mean a vegan diet is “unnatural.” Taking a B12 supplement allows you to choose a diet that supports health and aligns with your values.

E-bikes change lives. Full stop.
My parents just got new folding e-bikes delivered yesterday and I called to find out how they liked them and they were already miles from home having a blast. Haven't biked in years, live in the suburbs, not advocates or snobs or cheaters. Just loving their life.
