The Power of B12

Many of us can relate to the constant feeling of fatigue and feeling as if we do not have enough energy to make it through the day. Some of us experience changes in mood or ability to concentrate but are unable to identify the cause of these symptoms. These symptoms may be related to a deficiency of the vitamin B12. 

Vitamin B12 is essential for the function of the central nervous system, healthy red blood cell formation, and DNA synthesis. It is naturally present in foods of animal origin such as meat, fish, poultry, eggs and dairy products. People who have difficulties absorbing vitamin B12 or those who consume a plant based diet may experience a vitamin B12 deficiency. This deficiency can lead to symptoms that impact the quality of life. Symptoms of Vitamin B12 deficiency include:

  • Difficulty concentrating

  • Fatigue

  • Constipation

  • Loss of appetite

Vitamin B12 injections can be a great way to replace B12 deficiencies. B12 injections deliver a high concentration of Vitamin B12 directly into the bloodstream. Patients who receive B12 injections report improvement in mood, energy, memory, and concentration. The increased energy level may motivate some to increase their physical activity which may result in weight loss. 

Vitamin B12 injections are generally safe with a low risk for toxicity or overdose. Most people are able to receive vitamin B12 injections once weekly. Contact us today to learn more about how vitamin B12 can benefit you.
