How does a Vitamin B-12 injection help any deficiency?

Vitamin B12 rapidly absorbs from food. Hydrochloric acid in the stomach separates vitamin B-12 from the protein to which vitamin B12 is attached to the food. Vitamin B-12 then combines with a protein made by the stomach called the intrinsic factor and is absorbed by the whole body. Some people are not able to absorb the B12 which is why a B12 injection can be so important.

How many treatments of Vitamin B-12 will be needed?

If you are particularly deficient in Vitamin B12, then we would advise one treatment per week for the first month. It is then a case of seeing how much of an improvement you feel you have made. It may then be ideal to have a further injection of B12 once a month in order to maintain energy and eleviate any lethargy.

Vitamin B 12 plays a key role in restoring optimal health. B 12 will help restore your brain functionality and your nervous system.

Will I notice a difference immediately?

One treatment is not enough, especially if you know you are lacking in B-12. We would recommend 4 injections in the first month (one per week).
