Vitamin Injections

WHAT ARE VITAMIN INJECTIONS?

Vitamins are essential nutrients that help to keep our bodies healthy and our immune systems strong. We get our nutrients from our food sources such as vegetables, fruits, dairy products, and other animal products. With the decrease in food nutrients, increase in processed foods, our bodies are more vitamin deficient than ever before!

What makes vitamin injections so attractive is the fact that they bypass the digestive system entirely. Only a small percentage of vitamins taken orally are actually able to be absorbed and used by the body. When injected directly into muscle, vitamins become instantly available to the body without having to go through digestion which means absorption rates can range anywhere from 95% up to 100%. Moreover, these high absorption rates enable individuals to obtain higher levels of vitamins than if taken orally or in supplement form.

WHAT WE CURENTLY OFFER:

B12 (CYANOCOBALAMIN AND METHYLCOBALAMIN)

Vitamin B12 is an essential water-soluble nutrient, also known as cobalamin. It plays a vital role in the healthy functioning of many systems in the body, including: 

  • DNA (genetic material) synthesis

  • Energy production (metabolism)

  • Neurological (brain) function

  • Nerve cell health

  • Red blood cell (hemoglobin) formation

Vitamin B12 plays a key role in the normal functioning of the brain and nervous system. It’s also important in the formation of red blood cells. A lack of B12 can lead to anemia (not having enough red blood cells), causing you to feel tired and weak.

What symptoms can occur with vitamin B12 deficiency?

Chemically, vitamin B12 can exist in various forms, but all of them contain the mineral cobalt. The liver can store the vitamin for a long time, so it may take a few years for deficiency and symptoms to develop. Some common signs and symptoms of vitamin B12 deficiency include: 

  • Difficulties with maintaining balance

  • Joint pain

  • Poor reflexes

  • Memory loss

  • Anxiety

  • Fatigue, lethargy or feeling faint

  • Feeling of pins and needles

  • Headache or irritability

  • Mouth sores

  • Vision changes

A lack of B12 can lead to anemia (not having enough red blood cells), causing you to feel tired and weak.  

What foods contain vitamin B12?

Vitamin B12 is available in animal-based foods, as well as fortified foods that have added B12. Fortified foods usually include milk alternatives and breakfast cereals, and selections vary depending on the country. Some especially rich sources of vitamin B12 include:

  • Beef kidney: 1/3 cup (75 g) provides 311% of the RDI

  • Beef liver: 1/3 cup (75 g) provides 881% of the RDI

  • Canned salmon: 1/3 cup (75 g) provides 61% of the RDI

  • Eggs: 2 large eggs provide 25% of the RDI

  • Ground beef: 1/3 cup (75 g) provides 40% of the RDI

  • Milk: 1 cup (250 ml) provides 20% of the RDI

  • Trout: 1/3 cup (75 g) provides 61% of the RDI

 B12 INJECTIONS MIGHT NOT BE FOR YOU IF YOU HAVE:

  • Kidney disease

  • Leber's disease

  • Megaloblastic anemia

  • An unusual or allergic reaction to cyanocobalamin, cobalt, other medications, foods, dyes, or preservatives

  • Pregnant or trying to get pregnant

  • Breast-feeding 

IMMUNE BOOST (GLUTATHIONE, VITAMIN C & ZINC)

Tri-Immune Boost is a power packed immunity blend made up of Glutathione, Ascorbic Acid, and Zinc. This high concentration blend of immune boosting essentials is the ultimate immune System enhancer to help maintain a healthy immune response.

  • Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) supports cellular functions of both the innate and adaptive immune system.

  • Zinc Sulfate plays a role in the development + function of immune processes.

  • Glutathione protects host immune cells + provides optimal functioning of other cells in the immune system.

Ascorbic Acid

Ascorbic acid is a powerful antioxidant, meaning it helps protect cells from damage caused by free radicals. Free radicals are unstable molecules that can lead to oxidative stress and contribute to various chronic diseases, such as heart disease, cancer, and certain neurological disorders. It also plays a vital role in the synthesis of collagen, a protein found in connective tissues, skin, blood vessels and bones. Collagen is essential for wound healing, maintaining healthy skin, and supporting the structure and integrity of various body tissues. Ascorbic acid aids in the absorption of dietary iron, particularly non-heme iron found in plant-based foods, by converting it into a more absorbable form and increasing its bioavailability. This makes it especially important for individuals following vegetarian or vegan diets to ensure adequate vitamin C intake, as they may have a higher risk of iron deficiency.

Vitamin C is well-known for its role in supporting the immune system. It enhances the production and function of white blood cells, which are crucial for fighting off infections and pathogens. Ascorbic acid also helps boost the activity of other antioxidants in the body, further supporting immune function. It has been associated with several other potential health benefits, including reducing the risk of chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, age-related macular degeneration and certain types of cancer, and may also have anti-inflammatory properties that play a role in supporting brain health.

Zinc

Zinc plays a role in the regulation of the immune system. Being an essential element, it is not synthesized by the human body but must be ingested through food or mineral supplements. Some of the common food sources of zinc include beef, poultry, seafood, and grains, among others.  

Lack of zinc may lead to poor night vision and wound-healing, a decrease in sense of taste and smell, a reduced ability to fight infections, and poor development of reproductive organs. 

Glutathione

Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant comprised of amino acids and it has many functions. It is vital to mitochondrial function and necessary to produce DNA. Its ability to cross the blood-brain barrier means it plays an important role in removing toxins, such as mercury, from the brain and other cells. It is key in supporting immune function, metabolism, forming sperm cells, tissue building and repair, and helping with certain enzyme functions.

As a powerful antioxidant, it may help fight the effects of free radicals, which cause oxidative stress, damage healthy cells, and contribute to aging and certain degenerative illnesses. Unlike most antioxidants, glutathione can be made in the human liver. Glutathione can be found in every cell of the human body. It is also found in many foods, including spinach and avocados, but is poorly absorbed by the body when consumed orally. Supplements that can support glutathione production include curcumin, N-acetylcysteine, selenium, silymarin, vitamin C, and Vitamin E. Glutathione levels in the body naturally decline as we age but can also be reduced by factors like stress, malnutrition, and environmental toxins.

    VITAMIN D3 (50,000iu)

    Vitamin D is crucial to the building and maintenance of healthy bones and teeth. Calcium, the primary component of bone, is only properly absorbed by your body when vitamin D is present. Vitamin D is created within the body when direct sunlight converts a chemical in your skin into an active form of the vitamin. There are not many foods that contain vitamin D, but you can find it in fortified milk, fortified cereals, and fatty fish, like salmon, mackerel, and sardines. Unfortunately, most people do not get the necessary amount of vitamin D. Therefore, supplementation is needed. Vitamin D3 is the perfect supplement as it is the natural form of vitamin D that your body makes from sunlight. Vitamin D can come in several forms. The two major forms are vitamin D2 (ergocalciferol) and vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol). The recommended form of vitamin D for supplementation is cholecalciferol. Cholecalciferol is metabolized to its active form, calcitriol, which increases the body's absorption of calcium and phosphorus. Calcitriol may play a role in the immune system and may inhibit cancer growth and stimulate cell differentiation. Receiving vitamin D3 injections can treat and prevent the symptoms of vitamin D deficiency, including fatigue and bone pain. Vitamin D deficiency has been associated with an increased risk of death from cardiovascular disease, cognitive impairment in the elderly, severe childhood asthma and cancer.

    Vitamin D3 is paramount for a healthy immune system, as well as bone and nerve health. Vitamin D allows for more efficient absorption of calcium, which helps keeps bones healthy.
