Vitamin B12
For the tired you can't explain. Energy, focus and a clearer head, in a five minute stop.
One ingredient, 1,000 mcg of vitamin B12, given as a quick injection in the arm. Book it when you're sleeping enough and still dragging, when coffee has stopped working, when you eat little or no meat, or as the weekly habit that keeps your energy level. Our most booked booster.
The vitamin your energy runs on, straight into the muscle.
B12 is what your cells use to turn food into energy, keep nerves healthy and make the red blood cells that carry oxygen. Your body doesn't make it, and absorbing it from food depends on a healthy gut, which is why so many people run low without knowing it.
Swallow a B12 pill and most of it never makes it past your stomach. As a booster it skips the gut, so the full 1,000 mcg reaches you.
One ingredient, one measured dose, listed here.
What it does for you.
One ingredient, then how a booster gets it into you. Both are the whole story.
B12 helps your body turn food into usable energy, keeps your nerves healthy and supports the red blood cells that carry oxygen to your muscles and brain. Low B12 feels like tired for no reason, foggy thinking and a short fuse, and it's common in people who eat little meat, take acid reducers or metformin, or are over 50, when absorbing it from food gets harder. 1,000 mcg given into the muscle supports normal energy metabolism, and it's the booster people come back for most.
A booster is a small injection into the muscle of your upper arm or hip. Swallowed, a nutrient has to get through your digestive system first, and only part of it reaches your blood. Given this way it skips the gut, so more of it reaches you. A nurse checks in with you, gives the injection, and you're on your way. Most people say it's easier than a flu vaccine. Add it to a drip and it happens during the same visit.
Who books Vitamin B12.
When you're sleeping enough and still dragging through the afternoon, and coffee has stopped doing anything.
B12 comes almost entirely from animal foods, so vegans and vegetarians run low more often than they'd guess.
Finals, launches, newborns, tax season. A five minute stop on the way to a long week.
Absorbing B12 from food gets harder with age, and many people don't know they're low until they feel the difference.

A nurse gives the injection in your upper arm or hip and you're on your way. Some people feel a lift the same day; for most it builds over a few weekly visits.
Questions about the Vitamin B12 booster.
How long does a Vitamin B12 booster take?
About five minutes, start to finish, including check-in. No chair and no bag.
Can I walk in for a Vitamin B12 booster?
Yes, once you have been in before. New clients start with a free 10 minute intro so a nurse can review your health history. Your intro stays on file for three years, and after that you can walk in any time we're open.
How is Vitamin B12 different from Energize & Go?
Time and fluids. Energize & Go is a 30 to 45 minute drip: a liter of fluids with L-carnitine and folate, for energy that builds through the day. The B12 booster is one vitamin in five minutes, no fluids. If you're also dried out, book the drip and add B12 to it. If you just want the vitamin, this is the one.
How often do people get B12?
Many come weekly or every other week once they find it helps, and the Booster membership covers four a month. Your nurse can help you find a rhythm.
Will I feel it right away?
Some people notice a lift the same day. For most it builds over a few visits, which is why people make it a weekly habit rather than a one-time fix.
Can I add it to a drip?
Yes. Boosters are given during any drip visit, and B12 is the one most people add. It can also go straight into the bag as an add-in.
Can my doctor see exactly what is in it?
Yes. Every ingredient and dose is listed on this page, so you can show it to your own doctor. You, or your doctor, can ask our nurse or doctor anything, any time. Just call us at (205) 210-9797.
