Talk:Angelica sinensis

message: The article suggests that Angelica sinensis contains vitamin B12, with two supposed references. The first one lists Angelica as containing "0.25~40 mg/100g of vitamin B12" (whatever that means - even 0.25 mg of B12 would be a massive amount, considering that meats only contain a few micrograms per 100 g). That claim is not referenced, unlike most other stuff on that page.
The page seems quite suspicious anyway, with typos like "akaline" and "animo acid". I cannot access the second reference and it's not found on Google's cache or the Wayback machine. PubMed doesn't find anything with the query "angelica b12". I think the claim should be removed. I've never heard of a "normal" plant (e.g. not a mushroom, algae or fermented plant matter) that contains B12. And if Angelica sinensis really contained 100x the amount of vitamin B12 found in meat, it should be common knowledge.

replies: text: I agree entirely. Besides, the first reference does not seem like a reliable source. As for the w. article, in the same sentence that claims Angelica sinensis contains B12, it is also claimed that yeasts and spirulina containes B12, something which is not really true. There is no B12 in yeasts (unless fortified), and spirulina contains inactive B12 analogues which is of no use to humans and can even block absorption of real B12. I'm going to remove the whole sentence. TheLastNinja (talk) 08:14, 31 August 2009 (UTC)

message: I suggest that Angelica sinensis is now more commonly referred to as Dang Gui, based on the pinyin, over the Wade-Giles transliteration Dong Quai. The Wade-Giles system has become antiquated and the pinyin system is now more prevalent.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Acuhealth (talk • contribs) 20:20, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
