Look & Feel Younger

Vitamin B12 injections helps maintain good health and has been shown to be beneficial in helping to reduce stress, fatigue, improve memory, sleep, improved immune system and cardiovascular health. It reduces homocysteine levels in the blood and thereby reduces the risk of heart attack and strokes.

Vegetarians, especially vegans are likely to suffer from B12 deficiency as their diet lacks animal protein and eggs that are a primary source of B12.

Symptoms of Vitamin B12 deficiency are the following, but the levels have to be very low before they manifest clinically: Ataxia (shaking movements and unsteady gait), muscle weakness, pins and needles in toes and fingers, dementia and mood disturbance.

It is recommended to have Vitamin B12 Injections every month.
