FAQ on B12
Why should I have a B12 injection instead of taking it as an oral supplement?
When B12 is taken orally, there is a first-pass effect. When digested, the stomach acids that aid in helping food break down and dissolve B12. When utilized as an injection, the vitamin is absorbed directly into the bloodstream.
How long do you recommend B12 injections?
Since B12 is a vitamin, it will start eliminating within 24-72 hours from the urine. However, patients claim they feel the effects up to 2-3 weeks. If someone is already deficient, the benefits may be felt for a shorter time. During the cold and flu season, I recommend supplementing B12 more frequently to keep the immune system boosted and energy high.
