Lipo B- The Fat Burning Shot
Frequently Asked Questions:
What are Lipo B (vitamin B12 with
Lipotropics)
Weight Loss Injections?
Lipotropics are
three amino acids that are essential
for the health of your liver. The
liver is an organ responsible for
removing fat and toxins from your
body, so when it's healthier, it
will work better for you. Vitamin
B12 gives you a huge energy boost,
which helps you to burn calories.
The vitamin cocktail
included in the B12 and Lipotropic
shots are compounds that enhance
liver function and increase the flow
of fats and bile from the liver and
gallbladder. By definition, a
lipotropic substance decreases the
deposit, or speeds up the removal of
fat within the liver. The key amino
acids used to make these shots are
Vitamin B12, Choline, Methione, and
Inositol.
Vitamin B12 is
essential for helping to form new,
healthy cells in the body. It also
boosts energy, helping to increase
activity levels.
Choline supports
the health of the liver in its
processing and excretion of chemical
waste products within the body.
Moreover, it is required for the
transport and metabolism of fats and
cholesterol within the body, which
is important for the healthy support
of the endocrine, cardiovascular and
hepatic systems.
Methione is one
of the sulfur-containing amino acids
and is important for many bodily
functions. It acts as a lipotropic
agent to prevent excess fat buildup
in the liver and the body, is
helpful in relieving or preventing
fatigue and may be useful in some
cases of allergy because it reduces
histamine release.
Inositol, a
nutrient belonging to the B vitamin
complex, is closely associated with
choline. It aids in the metabolism
of fats and helps reduce blood
cholesterol. Inositol participates
in the action of serotonin, a
neurotransmitter known to control
mood and appetite.
What about B12 injections by them
self?
We
offer B12 by itself because some
people just want the energy, not the
weight loss, and others who want to
lose weight but have a sulfa allergy
can take this and at least boost
their energy so they burn more
calories. The results are slower
with the B12 by itself, but it does
help. Vitamin B12 is a vitamin
typically found in meat and dairy
products. It helps in the formation
of red blood cells and is essential
for nervous system functioning. B12
creates a significant energy boost
for the body. Patients who take it
feel like moving around more and
tend to burn more calories through
increased movement.

HCG
Injections
HCG,
which stands
for human chorionic gonadotropin is
a pregnancy hormone that is produced
by an embryo soon after conception.
As the pregnancy progresses, this
peptide hormone begins to be
produced by a part of the placenta
called the syncytiotrophoblast. As
such, testing for levels of
HCG in a woman's body is used as a
reliable test for pregnancy.
While HCG is
most commonly associated with
pregnancy, it may also be produced
by certain types of tumors.
Therefore, testing for elevated
levels of HCG can also help doctors
recognize the existence of tumors in
a patient's body.
When produced
during pregnancy, HCG helps the
corpus luteum remain intact. The
corpus luteum, which is part of the
ovary, is integral in maintaining
production of the progesterone that
is an important component of
pregnancy. In addition to
maintaining the corpus luteum,
researchers believe that HCG
provides pregnant women with extra
immunity during pregnancy.
The high
levels of HCG that are produced
during pregnancy have no negative
effects on the pregnant woman's
body. In fact, doctors have used HCG
for many years in order to help
women experiencing hormonal issues
or fertility problems. More
recently, however, studies have
found that HCG can actually help the
body burn more fat and can be used
to aid in weight loss when combined
with a healthy low calorie diet and
a moderate exercise routine.
Several
other positive side effects have
also become associated with HCG use.
These include:
Increased energy level without a
stimulant effect
Improved sleep
Decreased irritability
Increased loss of "belly fat"
Side effects tend to be minimal and
mild. Side effects may include:
Breast Tenderness
Headaches
Swelling
HCG is not FDA approved for weight
loss.
