Do B12 shots actually work?
No, I really don’t think so. There’s no evidence that vitamin B-12 in any form — including vitamin B-12 injections — enhances weight loss. One study published in 2005 suggested that people who took a number of different supplements, like vitamin B-12, ACTUALly gained weight more slowly over a 10-year period than did those who took no supplements. However, many factors must be considered when interpreting the study results, including the fact that people who take dietary supplements tend to be more health conscious — which may contribute to better weight management, coupled with the fact that these people may actually exercise more, so the fact that B-12 shots have been widely believed to work is most likely because those that lost weight did so through other means. If you’re hoping to lose weight, resist the lure of quick and easy solutions. What counts is a healthy lifestyle.
