Without enough B12, these cells can become large and misshapen (megaloblastic anaemia), reducing oxygen flow to your brain and muscles, causing fatigue and weakness
If your stomach is not producing enough stomach acid then you will have a problem not only with the digestion of your food but also with the absorption of certain nutrients, chiefly vitamin B12
Vitamin B12 (cobalamin) is essential for the healthy formation of red blood cells that, along with the protein hemoglobin, are responsible for carrying oxygen throughout your entire body
Whether due to dose, form, or individual biology, these effects deserve attention, not dismissal
However, vitamin B12 shots should be taken only by healthcare professionals
If you choose to stick with B12/MIC long term, you can remain on B12/MIC for up to 12 months, at which time you will need to complete an Annual Medical Check-In with our team to determine if B12/MIC is still appropriate for you
