B-12 Q's

[TA63]

I have a relative who is always run down and tired. Lookin for a supplement to increase their energy. She is on BP meds, so no ECA. Will oral b-12 vitamins be as effective as injectable? How often should injectable B-12 be used? Also, what about vitamin b complex?

 

[Singleton]

No, oral is much less effective.

Use b-12 1000mg 1x week.

Vet grade has b6 + others in it (niacin, thiamine, i think). Much cheaper, too!

does oral B12 increase your appetite if you take a bigger dose? If so what dose?

 

[babbabuee]

I've used it and did notice increased energy, but nothing too extreme. no noticeable increase of appetite. take some EQ, that'll get your appetite going, hehe, it did for me.

EQ makes ya hungry,,,,But only use B12 inject,, as orals are 99% useless...

The effectiveness of b12 is degreded by the stomach bile in processing, there is a much more pronounced effect of b12 injecting. you can use a 1/2 inch slin pin---

When I was using the b-12 to making suspension not clog I was shooting a 1/2 cc of b-12 (500mg) everyday with the suspesnion and I was eating like a horse and had crazy stamina.
