Hey all! So I've been taking these B12 gummies for about 3 weeks now, hoping they'd help with my restless nights (my doc said low B12 can mess with sleep cycles). The sleep is maybe a *little* better, but here's the weird thing: my skin is glowing! Like, people at my book club asked if I got a facial. I'm 68 and haven't had skin this clear since my 40s. Anyone else get a surprise side effect?

Hmm, interesting! I'm always skeptical about these things - my kids take gummy vitamins and half the time I wonder if they're just expensive candy. But my sister swears B12 helped her energy. Skin though? Could it be something else you changed? Diet, new moisturizer? Not trying to doubt you, just a mom who's seen too many placebo effects!

OMG Mia, YES! I started B12 gummies last year for brain fog (remember my blog post 'Gummies for Grumpy Geeks'? lol). The brain fog lifted a bit, but my nails got SO strong - no more peeling! And I'm less stressed? Like, I used to panic over deadlines, now I'm weirdly chill. Maybe B12 is the secret sauce we've been missing since the 90s when we just ate Flintstones vitamins for fun!

Fascinating! As a chef, I'm into how nutrients work. B12 helps with cell repair and red blood cells - that could explain skin and stress (better oxygen flow?). I take a gummy with my morning coffee, started for energy in the kitchen. Unexpected bonus: my cuts heal faster! Sliced my finger last week, and it was barely noticeable in 2 days. Placebo or not, I'll keep 'em in my routine!
