What are B12 injections?
B12 vitamin injections are very popular at the moment due to the huge benefits this vitamin provides. These benefits include:
- Increased energy
- Improved metabolism
- Enhanced mood
- Improved memory
- Boosted skin and hair health
- Stimulation of immune system
- Formation of Red Blood Cells
- Healthy regulation of the nervous system, reducing stress, depression and brain shrinkage.
Many people feel the side effects from a lack of B12, but are unaware of why they feel the way they do. The side effects can include tiredness, shortness of breath, hearth palpitations, pale skin, nerve problems, mental health issues and even permanent nerve damage if left untreated.
The human body is unable to create B12, although it is a necessity in order to keep the human body and mind healthy. B12 is normally found in foods such as meat, fish, poultry and eggs, there are many people who are deficient in B12. Deficiencies occur especially if you who lead a vegan lifestyle, if you do not eat enough B12 rich foods, or if you suffer from a medical condition that leaves you unable to process B12.
The Science Behind Vitamin B12 Injections
It is recommended that the daily intake of vitamin B12 should be around 6mg per day. Many people fail to intake that amount which causes a deficiency in B12.
It is thought that 90% of vegetarians and Vegans are deficient in vitamin B12. This deficiency is not only common in those who follow a vegetarian or vegan diet, but also meat eaters who are unable to absorb the vitamin well.
Deficiency is also particularly common in elderly people, due to the ability to absorb vitamin B12 decreasing as you age.
Vitamin injections are the most common way to treat and prevent a deficiency forming. We administer the injection hydroxocobalamin, which is the only UK approved version on the market. Although over the counter tablets are available for purchase from pharmacies and health shops, injections are considered the most effective way to increase vitamin B12 in the body.
Whether vitamin B12 is absorbed by the body depends on a protein called Intrinsic Factor which is produced inside the stomach. Intrinsic factor works by binding to the B12 vitamin so that it is absorbed into the blood. Therefore those who don't produce enough intrinsic factor can become deficient in B12.
B12 injections are considered very safe. There are no major side effects associated with this treatment. However side effects, although very rare, may include allergic reactions or increased sensitivity. Before each treatment we provide a holistic consultation and record your medical history to ensure the injection is right for you.

"I have had several beauty treatments by Clare and the level of service is so professional. I very nearly cancelled after booking the first appointment as my nerves got the better of me but I’m so glad I didn’t. I was talked through every stage of the procedure and instantly knew I was in safe hands. I highly recommend Call of Beauty Aesthetics and personally I wouldn’t go anywhere else now. The thing I really like is that Clare will never force anything on you and will not do procedures that are not realistically natural."
