C Preuves Preuves limitées issues de petites études, mais certains signaux positifs existent.

B12 deficiency impairs mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation. Observational study (n=9,075) found deficiency associated with higher BMI (OR 1.32). Metformin depletes B12 in 10-30% of users. Correction restores energy levels and exercise capacity.
