Making sure you are getting enough B12 into your system will ensure that your body is functioning at its best, allowing you to focus on achieving your goals and leading a healthier lifestyle!

  3. What is a Vitamin C Injection?

  4. How do you know if you have MTHFR mutation that causes B12 deficiency?

    MTHFR (or methylenetrahydrofolate reluctase, if you want the complicated version!) is a type of gene that helps produce the MTHFR enzyme. This enzyme is responsible for breaking down a common amino acid found within our blood - homocysteine.

    MTHFR mutations can lead to the enzyme’s inability to effectively break down homocysteine. High levels of homocysteine within the body can lead to a number of health issues, such as vitamin B12 deficiency and heart disease

    This means it’s sometimes recommended that people undergo testing to see whether they have a MTHFR mutation. The test is usually ordered by a doctor when it is discovered that a patient:

    • Has elevated homocysteine levels
    • Has a family history of conditions relating to the heart and blood, such as cardiovascular disease or thrombosis
    • Has a close rel

  5. How long does a B12 injection Last?

    It is hard to say with 100% accuracy how long a vitamin B12 injection lasts in the body. It all depends on how your body reacts to vitamin B12 shots and the frequency that you inject. In other words it’s a bit different for everyone.

    Many studies show that people are unable to absorb or store sufficient amounts of vitamin B12. These absorption and storage issues stem from a variety of reasons and range from serious (medical) to benign (diet). Many people use B12 injections as opposed to oral supplements, as injections are more easily and quickly absorbed by the body.

    However, one reputable source, written by Larry E. Johnson, MD, PHD at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, explains that when people can properly absorb and store vitamin B12, it is stored within the body from between 3 to 5 years.

    Just one of the thousands of reasons the b

  7. Using B12 Injections to Treat Pernicious Anemia (PA)

    How often should you take B12 injections to treat pernicious anemia?

    Vitamin B12 injections are a great way to combat the condition, so it’s useful to understand how often you should take the vitamin in order to overcome pernicious anemia. People with the condition may require lifelong treatment, though this is as simple as taking regular B12 shots at home or in a doctor’s office. Self-injecting saves a bundle of money so it’s worth it to learn how.

    Many medical professionals will suggest that you begin with injecting vitamin B12 into the muscle every day. After you have seen an improvement in symptoms from these daily injections, it is recommended that you use the shots once every 2 days for two weeks (this is 7 doses in total).

    Finally, after it has been proven that your B12 levels have returned to a stable state the frequency of administration will be reduced to just one shot each month. Your doctor can check your B12 vitamin levels by taking a loo

  8. What medications interact with vitamin B12?

    Vitamin B12 and medicines

    It’s easy to think of vitamins as harmless and just swallow or inject without much thought, but it’s always a good idea to read up on any supplement that you are thinking of taking. As my mother always says, “It’s better to be safe than sorry”.

    Vitamin B12 is naturally occurring in foods and considered an extremely safe supplement to take. It is vital to our overall physical and mental wellbeing, however there are some interactions that occur between the supplement and other drugs.

    Most of these interactions involve a specified drug simply reducing the body’s ability to effectively absorb vitamin B12 that leads to B12 deficiencies that we’d all rather avoid! In these cases, the solution may be as simple as using vitamin B12 injections rather than taking oral supplements or upping the dosage of B12 in order to achieve its desired effects.
