Location: on my horse | One of my friends swears by her B-12 shots, says she has a lot more energy and just feels better. Has anybody on here tried it? I eat clean and gluten free, work out quite a bit, and am generally a healthy person but am tired and dull quite a bit so I've been considering some sort of supplement. I have a Dr. appointment next week but thought I would bounce the B-12 idea off y'all too.  |

Location: USA | I tried them and they worked. I now take b-12 vitamins. If I'm feeling super rundown, I will take 2. It keeps me just as energized as the shot. |

Location: Bandera, TX | I've never tried the B12 shots, but I'm having really great results with Dr. Schulze's SuperFood. The taste is a bit strange, but it certainly will make you feel better. You can almost feel every cell in your body rejuvenating.

Hmm. If you can feel every cell rejuvenating, you might be on meth. Seriously, I have to take B12 shots because I don't absorb it from my food. I actually have nerve damage from lack of B12. I can't tell you that I notice extra energy at all but I also give the shots to my horse, and he does have extra energy after a shot. |

Location: Charlestown, IN | I have not tried the shots but I do take a time released B-12 every morning. I swear by it. My aunt takes the shots once a month and swears by them as well. It was recommended by her doctor for her to take them. |

 You just got to get mean and mean it.
Location: Arkansas | I take a B-12 pill every day. This was recommended to me by my doctor after undergoing chemo treatment. I complained of having no engery, he recommended B-12....the highest mcg, 5000. Sure makes a difference! |

Location: Middle of No Where | I have been on B12 shots for years! I could not make it without them. But, my B12 levels were very low and I don't absorb it through food so I have to take the shots. |

Location: on my horse | Hmmm good to know, I have a couple autoimmune diseases so my absorption for certain things is slowed down because of the diseases and the medications that I'm on. I'll definitely be talking to my doc about B12 |

| The problem with taking B12 orally is you don't absorb much through the digestive tract. It is absorbed much better when given as a shot IM. |

| I have a tendency to run low on B12 so I take the shots. At one time I was taking 3 shots a week. I can't say that I notice more energy but it sure takes care of the muscle tremors, dizzyness and such. |

I am so glad the Dr. Schultz is working out for you still. I think he has some great products! |

I agree - great products. I quit taking the SuperFood a few years ago. A couple of weeks ago I felt extremely run down and exhausted. Found some left over in the cabinet and have been hooked again since. Feel one million times better. |

Location: Oklahoma City OK | I get b-12 and b-complex shots during the time period surrounding our Fair in September and I swear it keeps me going and keeps me from getting sick and fatigue free. I also take b vitamins all other times but I am a believer in the extra b's during this very stressful time. |
