Vitamin Injections

Vitamin injections deliver high doses of vitamins, like B12, C, or D, directly into the muscle or bloodstream for rapid absorption, bypassing the digestive system for faster, more efficient delivery than oral supplements, primarily to treat deficiencies (like B12 for anaemia) or boost energy, immunity, and overall wellness, often at clinics or medspas.

How They Work & Why They're Used

• Direct Delivery: Vitamins go straight to the bloodstream (IM or IV), offering higher bioavailability than pills.
• Bypass Digestion: Ideal for people with absorption issues, digestive problems, or malabsorption conditions like pernicious anaemia.
• Rapid Results: Provides immediate access to nutrients, leading to quicker benefits for fatigue, stress, or low energy.

Common Types

• Vitamin B12 (Hydroxocobalamin/Cyanocobalamin): Treats B12 deficiency, anaemia, supports nerve and blood cell health, boosts energy.
• Vitamin D (D3): Supports bone health, immunity, mood.
• Vitamin C: Antioxidant, immune support.
• B-Complex Mixes & Lipotropics: Often include B vitamins and other compounds for energy, metabolism, and detoxification.

Who Benefits?

• People with diagnosed deficiencies (like pernicious anaemia).
• Vegans or those with restrictive diets.
• Individuals with chronic fatigue, stress, or weakened immune systems.
• Those who have had bariatric surgery.

Important Considerations

• Medical Guidance: Should be done with professional advice to identify true needs.
• Not for Weight Loss: No solid proof injections cause weight loss, though some report feeling better.
• Administration: Typically given by a nurse or doctor in a clinic setting
