This video walks you through the exact way to use B12 shots for weight loss including the benefits and how much you should be using.

If you know me then you know that I'm a huge fan of Vitamin B12 shots. They are probably my preferred way to get B12 into the body. I've used B12 shots to help people lose weight hundreds of times (perhaps thousands of times) and I want to share some of that experience with you.

Why do I love B12 shots? Because they get into the body VERY quickly and because I think they work better than other forms of B12 including b12 supplements/capsules/liquid. This is just my experience, though, so your mileage may vary.

But before we talk about B12 shots for weight loss, I want to be very clear. B12 shots are not a weight loss supplement like the way you are probably thinking they are. While they can be helpful in a weight loss regimen, they should never be used by themselves. If you think you are going to give yourself some shots and then magically lose weight you've got another thing coming.

If you instead use B12 shots with healthy eating, regular exercise, hormone balance, getting enough sleep, and stress reduction techniques, you are going to have a good time!

With that in mind, let's talk about the benefits of B12 shots:

#1. Increased energy and decreased fatigue.

#2. Increased metabolism.

#3. Improved sleep quality and depth of sleep.

#4. Decreased depression.

In order to get these benefits you MUST use B12 shots correctly. That means you need to get the right dose. The dose that I frequently recommend is 5,000mcg of B12 every 7 days or once per week.

What you will find is that many weight loss clinics will offer B12 shots but they will only provide 1,000mcg of B12 and give it every 7 days. This is only 1/5 of the dose that I like to use.

Secondly, you have to make sure you are using the right type of B12. The type of B12 that I prefer is methylcobalamin. You have to be careful, though, because many places will use cyanocobalamin instead. Methylcobalamin is pre-activated and pre-methylated so it's easier for your body to use.

Lastly, I frequently recommend going with a subcutaneous injection rather than an intramuscular injection. Subq injections can be done with an insulin syringe and are less invasive than IM injections.
