What is Vitamin B12?

💊 Vitamin B12 is an important nutrient that supports energy levels, red blood cell production, and normal nervous system function.

⚠️ Low levels can sometimes lead to symptoms such as tiredness, low energy, or difficulty concentrating, although these symptoms can have many different causes.

📌 Assessment is important to determine whether B12 may be a contributing factor.

Vitamin B12 Injections

💉 Vitamin B12 injections are given into the muscle and allow the vitamin to be absorbed directly into the body.

⚡ This method does not rely on digestion, which can be helpful for some individuals.

📌 Injections are commonly used where deficiency is identified or where absorption may be reduced.
