I loved your interview with Lierre Keith – listened to it twice and made me tear up both times. 2 questions – what is the future project you said you will be working on with her (if you can say). Also, I thought it a little confusing that she said she only took B12 once in a while – I can see that some people might look at that as a reason for her health problems, still it does probably indicate that most vegans don’t take B12 as much as they should either. thanks for your great interviews!
