You may already know that the Vitamin B12 & B Complex Combo IV Drip majorly addresses Vitamin B12 Deficiency.
However, to best appreciate this treatment, it is important to first understand what Vitamin B12 is.
What is Vitamin B12?
Also known as cobalamin, Vitamin B12 is a water-soluble vitamin involved in metabolism. It helps the body convert food into energy, form red blood cells, and maintain nerve function.
Why is Vitamin B12 so vital to your body?
Vitamin B12 is crucial for the healthy production of red blood cells.
It also plays a key role in creating your DNA.
It is essential for proper nerve function & maintaining a healthy central nervous system.
It also contributes to the health of your hair, nails, and skin.
Vitamin B12 has also been found to play a role in lowering the risk of Osteoporosis: a disease that weakens your bones and leads to hip fractures.
What could happen to your body when you are deficient in Vitamin B12?
Anemia
The body needs B12 in order to make healthy red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. New red blood cells need vitamin B12 and folate (vitamin B9) to grow and develop. If Vitamin B12 & B9 are lacking, making DNA is hard, causing the immature red blood cells to die, leading to anemia. This deficiency could also lead to Megaloblastic Anemia where the red blood cells are larger than expected, disrupting their function.
Depression
Several studies show a link between depression and low levels of B12. Replenishing the body with B12 has been proved to delay or prevent the onset of depression among those with lower levels of the vitamin in their bodies.
Poor Cognition & Memory
Vitamin B12 deficiency is associated with problems with thinking, judgement, learning and memory function, which may play a role in getting Alzheimer's disease and Stroke.
Low Energy
Numerous energy drinks boldly boast of high levels of Vitamin B12 for a reason. Low levels of Vitamin B12 can lead to fatigue and lack of energy.
Unhealthy Skin, Hair & Nails
Very low levels of B12 have been linked to Hyperpigmentation, Vitiligo, Eczema & Acne. Vitamin B12 Deficiency has also been associated with hair loss and nails turning brown-gray or bluish.
Peripheral Neuropathy
Insufficient Vitamin B12 in the body is linked to nerve damage causing tingling, numbness, and pain. Optic Neuropathy is another possible outcome, where the optic nerve, the nerve that transmits visual information from the eye to the brain, is damaged leading to a gradual loss of vision, as well as to you seeing blind spots.
