Rise n' Shine: How B-12 Shots from NewMeMD Can Benefit YOU

Vitamin B-12 (also known as cyanocobalamin) is important for the normal functioning of our brain and nervous system, along with the formation of blood cells in our bodies.

This particular nutrient is offered most often in pill form, but has become increasingly popular in the form of an injection. 

B-12 supplementation is especially well known in the weight loss community today, because patients undergoing a prescription diet regimen (like our hCG weight loss program here at NewMeMD ) have been known to experience significant benefits from receiving a B-12 shot once (or even twice) a week.

So what's all the hype about, you may ask?! Well here are just 5 benefits of Vitamin B-12 injections and why they've become prevalent among dieters as well as the health-conscious nationwide:

1. B-12 is great for increasing metabolism, which can also contribute to the side effect of improved weight loss. When combined with other weight loss regimens, this natural substance can trigger a faster action of losing weight (results, however, may vary from patient to patient).

2. B-12 can provide a noticeable boost in your energy levels.
Since Vitamin B-12 works with your central nervous system to help your body utilize fat & carbohydrates for energy, receiving a shot of this supplement could give you that extra oomph you need to power through your workload or fitness routine for the week!

3. B-12 can improve your sense of well being and/or your emotional state.
Vitamin B-12 has been found to work very well with the neurotransmitters in your brain. This means just one shot a week could be enough to balance your mental and emotional happiness, providing you with an overall better mood and even the prevention of mood swings!

4. Like many other injectable remedies, B-12 shots could work much more efficiently than oral supplementation.
When B-12 is injected directly into your bloodstream rather than ingested in pill form, you are less likely to lose any of its health benefits through your own digestion process. This means B-12 shots may actually offer you a much better value for your investment instead of buying it off a store shelf!

5. B-12 can help in the prevention of blood clots.With this vitamin's ability to act as a blood thinner, they could actually be instrumental in advoiding medical conditions like a stroke from occurring. Along with preventing blood clots, Vitamin B-12 is additionally beneficial for the prevention and/or treatment of memory loss as well as Alzheimer’s disease!

Overall, Vitamin B-12 is necessary for normal body function and overall health, but it has also recently been found to contribute to weight loss and even disease prevention.
