The Connection Between B12 Shots and Weight Loss

If you are trying to lose some weight, you might want to go on a regime of Vitamin B12 and see how it works for you. There seems to be a direct relationship between losing weight and Vitamin B12. Research shows that it boosts weight loss significantly. How does it work?

To understand how it works to boost weight loss, we need to understand about weight gain first, and then understand what the body needs to do to lose weight.

Weight is actually a matter of metabolism. Metabolism is simply how you convert the food that you eat. The higher a rate metabolism that you have, the less likely that you will gain weight. Weight gain is a result of slow metabolism. The food that you eat is converted into fat instead of directly into energy. The more you gain fat, the less energy you have and so the less you move your body. Your metabolism gets even slower because your needs for energy are so low.

To lose weight, you need to work on increasing your metabolism. That’s why exercise and a change in diet come the best recommended. The better your diet, the more efficient your body is in processing it into the right nutrients for your energy needs. The more you exercise, the more energy you need. A higher rate of metabolism kicks in. If you are consistent in your efforts, you will find that you lose weight.

Vitamin B12 shots works to increase your metabolism. It’s called the energy vitamin, and this is because it causes your body to break down food and turn it into energy. The rest is expelled as waste. Once you get yourself in a high metabolism cycle, you keep going so long as you keep active. Vitamin B12 will stimulate your cells so that they are constantly producing energy. When you exercise for instance, you find that you can go for longer. If you used to feel weak after a few hours of not eating, you find that you don’t feel that hungry any more. Your energy usage has been corrected.

Vitamin B12 will also lift depression and leave you feeling perkier. When you are on a weight loss plan, this is definitely a plus – you will be more motivated to do what you need to do to lose weight.

Does it have any side effects? None that are serious. Some people report being giddily happy after a shot, but that wears off into a positive mood after a few hours. Don’t take it without consulting your doctor if you have an already existing condition or are under other medication.
