b12 inj

I can guarantee you i do feel the same effects.....I am aware that people use it to "cut" their gear so in that instance go for it. You have no point.....I do have an idea....The body secretes 5-7mcgs a day for it's use and REabsorbs most of this. An adult requires approx. 2mcgs a day.Your liver stores approx 3000mcgs and it would take an adult 3 years without b12 production to use up the stored b12 and start to show signs of anemia.If you are at your storage capacity and producing b12 which is a vitamin then it does'nt take a genious to know where the extra goes......(FLUSH)
You've got to love webMD and google....they turn everyone into "scientists". What you are referring to is a sedentary person in the presence of their own endogenous B12 production. That's not me, nor is it most of the people on this site. the body will always strive for homeostasis. So, when it produces Xmcg/day, it will roughly use X-Ymcg/day. When you introduce supraphysiological levels of almost anything, adjustments occur, and the body reacts. The body can and does utilize well above the basal levels of endogenous B12 if supplied adequate sources. You don't even have to understand it at a very deep level to realize that you feel different when shooting up B12. If your body's needs have already been satisfied by endogenous B12, the exogenous B12 would have no effects and would "pass through". However, your body does utilize much of the exogenous B12, as evidenced by the change in appetite and energy. My point is....you don't know how much the body CAN use, despite endless google searches. I don't know how much it can use either, but it is far more than it normally produces.

This is a cheap shot, but the irony of mispelling "genious" is too much to pass up.

ok ok- lates say that 1000mcg a week is more than sufficient for a normal person-- assuming a juice head absorbs more vitamins that a normal person it feels fair to say that 2000mcg a week should certainly do the trick! thats what im going with -- thank you guys for info -- really helped alot --

one more thing -- you sayed cutting gear with b 12 -- is that to take the burn out of the ip gear? can you cocktail b12 with oil based tes? isnt b12 more like water than oil (i assume because its so thin)


ya..alot of people(includeing yours truely) cut painful stuff with b12...if your a ED pincushion, cutting with b12 makes life soooo much more bearable..
 
This reminds me, I gotta do my weekly shot right now before I forget. I have tryed ed shots and 1x wk. 1wk is better. I get the well being feeling, the appetite. I think the ed was to much feel better 1x wk.People that are b12 insufficient get shots every 2-4wks at 1000mcg. That tells me that once a week is good for someone who wantas to supplement b12 in their routine.
2V.

YOU can "google" all you want...those scientific FACTS came from me. All I stated in my post was how much b12 the body produced, stored and used daily. I never said supplementing was a bad idea. I supplement myself but for a different reason...I have a damaged nerve and b12 aids in myelin regeneration. More than 1000mcgs a week is still a ridiculous waste. But hey....obviously you are fortunate enough to be experiencing a grand placebo affect...gotta love that.
