B-12 enhancement shots have been growing in popularity for good reason. Our body needs B vitamins for energy, and a deficiency can lead to health problems like long-term fatigue and permanent neurological changes. 

B-12 is a water-soluble vitamin that aids in DNA synthesis, nerve cell health, red blood cell formation, and neurological functions. You can get it from many foods, separated from the protein in the digestion process, and eventually absorbed into the bloodstream. Still, some people find it hard to get enough. Those with anemia have a more challenging time absorbing it. B-12 enhancement shots are a manufactured version of this valuable vitamin, formally known as cyanocobalamin. Shots from family medicine Miami can quickly boost B-12 levels where there is a deficiency. 

Common symptoms of a vitamin B-12 deficiency include fatigue, lethargy, constipation, depression, irritability, frequent headaches, heart palpitations, vision changes, swollen tongues, and mouth ulcers. Some factors may put you at a higher risk like alcohol abuse, smoking, some type 2 diabetes medication, a vegetarian or vegan diet (most naturally occurring B-12 comes from meat), Crohn's Disease, and aging. 

Getting a B-12 shot can help treat the symptoms that occur from a deficiency while also assisting in preventing heart disease, ataxia, vision loss, infertility, and neurocognitive disorders. Those with an allergy to cyanocobalamin and cobalt, low potassium levels, kidney disease, Leber's disease, and other nutritional deficiencies should consult their doctor before receiving B-12 shots. These conditions can cause an adverse reaction.
