While there’s nothing wrong with taking oral vitamin supplements, ingredients delivered through intramuscular injection are highly absorbable, giving this treatment a distinct advantage.
Vitamin injection treatments are suitable for anyone who is able to receive an injection.
Vitamin injection treatments feel the same as any other intramuscular injection you may have received from your doctor. You may feel a small pinch, but there shouldn’t be any real pain.
Also known as cobalamin, vitamin B12 plays a vital role in the proper functioning of the nervous system, red blood cell formation and DNA synthesis. It is also important for maintaining healthy brain function and energy levels.
Symptoms of vitamin B12 deficiency can include fatigue, weakness, numbness or tingling in the hands and feet, difficulty walking, anaemia, memory loss and depression.
People who follow a vegan or vegetarian diet, older adults and those with digestive disorders that interfere with nutrient absorption (such as coeliac disease or Crohn’s disease) are at higher risk of vitamin B12 deficiency.
Vitamin B12 is not toxic and is considered safe to consume in high doses. However, some people may experience mild side effects such as nausea or diarrhoea after a high dose of vitamin B12.
Also known as ascorbic acid, vitamin C plays a pivotal role in wound healing, collagen production and supporting the body’s immune system. It is also a highly effective antioxidant that helps protect your cells from damage caused by free radicals.
Vitamin C has been studied for its potential to prevent or treat the common cold, but the results are mixed. While some studies have shown that vitamin C can reduce the duration and severity of cold symptoms, other studies have found no significant effect.
