Frozen Thawed missing a B Vitamin?

I saw this video on youtube and it says feeding F/T isnt always good because freezing takes away a certain vitamin. Heres the link.

The only thing I don't agree with is the 5-10 minutes. I left a mouse in for about an hour the first time with my baby because he hadn't eaten for 2 months. It took him an hour to get it and kill it. But I supervised for the whole hour, just sat in a chair and watched.

I really don't know about that f/t thing.

Just wanted to know if anyone knew if it was true

According to the USDA's website:

"Nutrient Retention
The freezing process itself does not destroy nutrients. In meat and poultry products, there is little change in nutrient value during freezer storage."

Yeah, freezing shouldn't alter the presence of a vitamin. Pretty sure it's fine. Probably started by someone who wanted to feed live, and figured it sounded like a good excuse.

Not bashing live feeders, I feed live to more of my snakes, and FT to the lizards.
