The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
we can correlate the size of human brains with the amount of b12 in their bloodstream meaning that those who have less b12 have smaller brains and those who have more b12 have bigger brains
in populations people who have less b12 they're probably eating less animal foods
you could correlate the level of b12 in someone's blood with the size of their brain at least in elderly adults
there are interesting studies that suggest that you could correlate the level of b12 in someone's blood with the size of their brain at least in elderly adults and of course the suggested hypothesis or the compelling hypothesis is that as you have less vitamin b12 in your body and your blood you have a smaller brain and that that's what's been observed at least correlationally
and so you could imagine that you know in populations people who have less b12 are probably eating less animal foods
