Dr. McDougall Health & Medical Center | YOU Need To Know About The Surprising Connection Between Vitamin B12 and Lung Cancer | Dr. McDougall @themcdougallprogram | Uploaded December 2023 | Updated October 2024, 1 day ago.
In this live stream, Dr. John McDougall, hosted by Heather McDougall alongside Mary MacDougall, will go through the recent studies he has read. He wants to react and share his insights related to the surprising connection between lung cancer and vitamin B12. The first part of the live stream will primarily focus on Vitamin B12 and the essential information you need to know about it.
The second part of our live stream is the Audience Q&A, where Heather will ask Dr. McDougall your questions. Today, we'll cover the veganism debate and engage in discussions on the dangers of high B12 levels, arterial dissection disease, and the starch-based diet for arthritis. Get expert advice on Vitamin D3 intake, the impact of Dr. McDougall's diet on white count, and the Starch Solution for eye health. Wrap it up with insights into dementia in older people.

B12 and increased overall mortality:
Flores-Guerrero, Jose L et al. “Association of Plasma Concentration of Vitamin B12 With All-Cause Mortality in the General Population in the Netherlands.” JAMA network open vol. 3,1 e1919274. 3 Jan. 2020, doi:10.1001/jamanetworkopen.2019.19274
In this population-based cohort study including 5571 adults, higher plasma concentrations of vitamin B12 were associated with a 25% increased adjusted risk of all-cause mortality per 1-SD increase.
Higher B12 Levels and More Lung Cancer:
Int J Cancer. 2019 September 15; 145(6): 1499–1503. doi:10.1002/ijc.32033.
Directly measured circulating vitamin B12 was positively associated with overall lung
cancer risk in the LC3 consortium (OR for a doubling in vitamin B12 [ORlog2B12] = 1.15,
95% confidence interval [95%CI] = 1.06-1.25, Figure 1). Positive associations were seen for
adenocarcinoma (ORlog2B12 [95%CI] = 1.14 [1.00-1.30]) and small-cell carcinoma
(ORlog2B12 [95%CI] = 1.20 [0.91-1.59]), but no association was seen for squamous cell
carcinoma (ORlog2B12 [95%CI] = 1.00 [0.81-1.23]).
Western Diet (Higher B12 intake) Means More Lung Cancer:
Zhao L, Kase B, Zheng J, Steck SE. Dietary Patterns and Risk of Lung Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analyses of Observational Studies. Curr Nutr Rep. 2023 Jun;12(2):338-357. doi: 10.1007/s13668-023-00469-w. Epub 2023 Apr 25. PMID: 37097371.
Adenocarcinoma of the lung and diet:
Li X, Chen H, Zhang L, Chen L, Wei W, Gao S, Xue Q, Li Y, Wang B, Li J, Gao Y, Lin Y. 27-hydroxycholesterol linked high cholesterol diet to lung adenocarcinoma metastasis. Oncogene. 2022 May;41(19):2685-2695.
Cholesterol promoted cell proliferation and invasion of LAC in vitro as well as LAC metastasis in vivo.
