Vitamin injections are intramuscular treatments that deliver high doses of vitamins directly into your muscles, allowing for immediate absorption into the bloodstream. The injections typically contain a combination of vitamins, such as B-12, B-6, and C, along with amino acids, antioxidants, and other nutrients.
When the vitamins reach the muscle, they bypass the digestive system, where nutrients typically lose potency. By averting the gastrointestinal tract, your body can access the vitamins immediately, resulting in a quicker response and better absorption.
This delivery method also eliminates uncomfortable symptoms of eating and taking oral supplements, such as nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea.
What are the benefits of vitamin injections?
Vitamin injections offer many benefits for your mental and physical well-being, including:
- Increased absorption
- Improved energy
- Boosted metabolism
- Enhanced athletic performance
- Improved mood
- Strengthened immunity
- Enhanced skin health and appearance
- Improved concentration
Betsy can combine vitamin injections, such as the B-12 and lipo “skinny” shots, to target multiple concerns in a single treatment.
How long do vitamin injections last?
The length of time the effects of vitamin injections last depends on several factors, including the types of vitamins used, your age, medical history, and metabolism. Most vitamin injections last for at least a few days, while many offer improvements for several weeks.
How are vitamin injections different from IV therapy?
IV therapy delivers nutrients directly into your bloodstream through a vein, rather than through muscle tissue. The effects of IV therapy typically develop quicker than vitamin injections, but they don’t last as long.
Is it safe to get vitamin injections?
Vitamin injections are safe and effective for most adults. Make sure to talk to Betsy about any allergies or underlying medical conditions you have before treatment to minimize your risk of infection and discomfort.
How often can I get vitamin injections?
The frequency of vitamin injections depends on several factors, including the type of injection, the dosage, and your individual needs. Vitamins injections are typically safe to receive once every few weeks. Betsy works with you to create a customized plan than meets your individual needs and goals.
