How Vitamin B12 Injections Can Increase Your Energy and Metabolism and Jump-Start Weight Loss

Wonder how your favorite celebrities seem to have endless energy, ageless looks, and effortlessly trim bodies? What’s their secret?

While they likely have many types of anti-aging and performance-enhancing therapies available to them, some health-conscious celebrities choose B12 (cobalamin) when they want to optimize their metabolism to stay thin, trim, and vibrant.

The good news is that you don’t have to be a celebrity to take advantage of the benefits of B12 therapy. Our medical team at NuvidaRx Weight Loss in Tallahassee, Florida, has helped many patients use B12 injections to resolve feelings of fatigue or improve their weight-loss efforts.

Whether you’re looking for ways to jump-start weight loss or complement your wellness regimen, our B12 injection specialists develop an individualized schedule of injections to help you achieve the results you desire. Here are some of the benefits of these types of shots.

Why does your body need B12?  

Vitamin B12 contributes to the health of your body’s nerves, blood cells, and DNA. Having adequate B12 levels protects you from a type of anemia called megaloblastic anemia that can cause fatigue and brain fog.

Since the mid-1950s, scientists have also been aware of the ability of B12 to process and burn fat. At appropriate levels, these lipotropic properties of vitamin B12 help your body metabolize fat more effectively and efficiently.

Unfortunately, your body can’t produce its own B12 to take advantage of all these benefits, so you have to consume it through food or supplements. 

Because B12 is naturally present only in meat and other animal products, vegans and vegetarians may not get enough B12 from their diet. Women and men with absorption disorders also can’t properly absorb and process it. 

Your consultation with the medical team here at NuvidaRx Weight Loss involves a thorough physical examination and blood test to determine your current levels of B12 and the levels you need to achieve your goals.

How do B12 injections work?

When you rely on oral B12 supplements to improve your B12 levels, you may not get the full benefit of your dosage because the nutrients have to get through your digestive system before they enter your bloodstream. 

Receiving B12 injections gives you the benefit of the full dose of nutrients because it’s delivered right into your bloodstream. This also lets you utilize the nutrients immediately for faster and more complete results. 

The benefits of your B12 injection may include:

• Immediate improved energy
• Improved metabolism
• Better mood and cognition
• Boosted long-term energy

The B12 injection specialists at NuvidaRx Weight Loss determine your needs when establishing a treatment schedule. Most patients receive B12 shots twice each week. 

B12 plus “fat-burning shots”

While twice-weekly B12 injections alone can impact your energy levels and fat-burning capabilities, NuvidaRx Weight Loss patients typically receive B12 injections together with lipotropic injections.

These “fat-burning shots” are often used as part of a medically supervised weight-loss program that includes proper hydration, a healthy diet, and routine exercise.

While vitamin B12 injections help your body metabolize fat more effectively and promote its removal, lipotropic injections provide a combination of B12 and other nutrients to jump-start weight loss or bypass a plateau.
