B12 SHOT

Vitamin B12 shots are used to treat a B12 deficiency. Vitamin B12 shots can help improve your sleep, increase your energy, normalize your metabolism and improve your mood.

The recommended daily intake (RDI) of vitamin B12 is 6 micrograms per day. Deficiency is common, especially in people who follow a vegetarian or vegan diet. In fact, it’s thought that up to 90% of people following these diets have a deficiency. This is because B12 is only found naturally in animal foods.

However, vegans and vegetarians are not the only ones who are deficient. Even some meat eaters don’t absorb it very well . Unlike other vitamins, the absorption of vitamin B12 depends on a protein produced in your stomach, called intrinsic factor. Intrinsic factor binds to vitamin B12, so that you can absorb it into the blood. People who don’t produce enough intrinsic factor can become deficient.

Deficiency is particularly common in elderly people, because the ability to absorb vitamin B12 can decrease with age. Other people at risk of deficiency include those who have had intestinal surgery, including weight loss surgery. Those with diseases that affect the gut, such as Crohn’s disease or celiac disease, are also at risk.

LIPO B SHOT

Lipo-B injections contain several powerful nutrients, amino acids, and vitamins to help improve your overall health while giving a boost to weight loss efforts:

• Methionine. This is an amino acid that helps synthesize proteins. Without enough methionine, individuals can experience problems such as fatty liver or edema. It is also able to deactivate excess estrogen. Too much estrogen can inhibit bile flow through the liver.

• Choline. This essential nutrient has vitamin-like properties. Like methionine, it is able to improve liver health and it may be able to reduce fatty liver buildup.

• Inositol. Yet another liver health booster, inositol helps clean the liver of unwanted buildup. It also helps transport fat stored so that body tissues can use it for energy instead.

• Cyanocobalamin (B12). This vitamin is vital to healthy metabolic function. It’s also able to reduce mental stress, which can hinder weight loss efforts.
