B12 is a water-soluble vitamin and an essential nutrient that plays a vital role in many bodily functions, including red blood cell formation, nerve function, and DNA synthesis. Our body needs it, but does not produce it naturally.

 

Doses of up to 2000mcg are considered safe and as Vitamin B12 is water-soluble, the excess amounts are excreted through urine, making it safe to take in recommended doses, even without a deficiency.

 

The injection dose is 1000mcg, recommended once a week for 4 weeks, followed by once a month, thereafter.

  B12 is crucial for energy production. Injections can help combat fatigue and improve overall energy levels.
   

• Improved Mood:
  Adequate B12 levels are associated with better mood and mental health.
   

• Enhanced Cognitive Function:
  B12 is essential for maintaining healthy brain function and can help improve memory and concentration.
   

• Support for Nervous System:
  B12 injections can help maintain nerve health and prevent neurological issues.

Key Functions & Benefits: 

​

• Red Blood Cell Production:
  B12 is crucial for producing healthy red blood cells, which carry oxygen throughout the body, preventing a type of anaemia called megaloblastic anaemia. 
   

• Nerve Function:
  B12 plays a vital role in maintaining the health of the nervous system, including the brain and spinal cord.
   

• DNA Synthesis:
  B12 is essential for DNA synthesis, the process of creating new DNA strands, which is crucial for cell division and growth. 
   

• Energy Production:
  B12 supports energy metabolism, helping the body convert food into energy, which can lead to increased energy levels and reduced fatigue. 
   

• Brain Function:
  B12 contributes to cognitive function, potentially improving mood, focus, and mental clarity. 
   

• Bone Health:
  Some studies suggest a link between B12 deficiency and poor bone health, so maintaining adequate levels of B12 may support bone health and potentially prevent osteoporosis. 
   

• Heart Health:
  B12 can help reduce homocysteine levels in the blood, which are linked to an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases. 
   

• Immune System:
  B12 supports the production of red blood cells and aids in the proper function of immune cells, potentially strengthening the immune system. 
   

• Skin Health:
  Vitamin B12 may contribute to a healthy complexion and potentially improve skin texture and radiance.
