I reduced both my protein and carbohydrate consumption levels each day. Our body is not doing well with protein absorption. Avoiding vitamin B12.

I don't know what your levels of B12 are; it would be good to check with a doctor and get bloodwork before avoiding B12. Regarding carbohydrates and proteins, there are good and not as good. Complex carbohydrates (particularly with high fiber) take longer to digest, so one doesn't get the sugar spike of most commercial baked goods. Doctors generally want us to limit red meats and go with lean protein, fish, and plant-based proteins (whole wheat if someone isn't gluten intolerant/celiac, quinoa rather than rice, etc). https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5555006/

Why are you avoiding B12. I haven't seen any connection between that and MGUS. What am I mising
