At our practice, we frequently recommend vitamin B12 injections for patients who have difficulty adequately absorbing the vitamin through diet or oral supplements
Lopes, R
Anything that helps patients return to normal breathing patterns more quickly reduces this risk
However, advanced delivery systems like InfiniWells LipoEmulsion are significantly closing this gap
Martin, E., Zhang, A., & Campiche, R
Medical conditions affecting absorption warrant particular attention : Pernicious anaemia : an autoimmune condition destroying gastric parietal cells, requiring lifelong B12 injections Gastrointestinal surgery : particularly gastric bypass, gastrectomy, or terminal ileum resection Inflammatory bowel disease : Crohn's disease affecting the terminal ileum impairs absorption Coeliac disease : untreated disease damages the small intestine, reducing B12 uptake Medication use : long-term metformin therapy (MHRA safety alert) or nitrous oxide exposure Symptoms suggesting possible B12 deficiency include : persistent fatigue, weakness, paraesthesia (pins and needles) in hands or feet, glossitis (sore, red tongue), mood changes, memory problems, or unexplained anaemia
