Vitamin B-12
energy, mental clarity, stamina
Vitamin B12 is a water-soluble vitamin known as cobalamin. This vitamin plays a vital role in brain function and the production of DNA and red blood cells. B12 can be stored in the liver for a long time, so it may take a few years for a deficiency to develop.

● Strengthens the immune system
● Improves quality of sleep
● Speeds metabolism, thereby aiding in weight loss
● Reduces allergies, stress, and depression
● Increased mood stability
● Lessens the frequency and severity of migraines/headaches
● Helps lower homocysteine levels, thereby reducing the probability of heart disease and strokes

● Heart palpitations and shortness of breath
● Pale skin
● Constipation, diarrhea, loss of appetite, or gas

Possible Side Effects or Contraindications
● A B12 injection is safe and generally has no side effects, even in higher doses.
● Some redness or swelling can occur at the injection site. These symptoms should resolve within 48 hours.
● In rare cases, B12 can cause diarrhea, peripheral vascular thrombosis, itching, transitory exanthema, urticaria, or swelling of the body.
● Sensitivity to Cobalt and/or Cobalamin is a contraindication.
● People with chronic liver or kidney dysfunction should not take frequent B-12 injections; therefore we ask that you please provide us with a recent copy of lab work, which reflects liver and kidney function. This lab work is usually referred to as a metabolic panel. If you have not checked your lab work recently we ask that you get a complete blood workup as soon as possible.
● B12 is contraindicated with Leber’s disease, a hereditary optic nerve atrophy disease.
