Injectable b12

If you get an adequate amount of red meat in your diet b12 may do very little to help. I make my own b12 because it is sold in such low concentration. It is supposed to help people with methylation issues. I have no idea what the methylation issues entail. A buddy says he has the issue so I tried to make it at 100mg per ml for him to not have to shoot multiple mls. He is just your average person no gear use, so injections of more than 1ml is not ideal.
It turns into a science experiment of crystal b12 growth. I diluted it with l carnatine so it would be stable. He says he feels great using it and I see no benefit other than I seam to be dropping weight faster than normal. I take it every morning before cardio. Lost 16 pounds in 3 weeks. It's more than likely the other drugs.
If you are suffering from being extremely tired try adding mots c and methylene blue into your supplementation. Be careful with merhylene blue, look up the drugs it interacts with to make sure you do not end up with serotonin syndrome. If the mots c is kind of outside of your budget you only need 1 to 2 mg per day. Most people take 5mg twice a week, but 1 to 2mg daily is much better.
You should also do a sleep study to see if you have sleep apnea. You can do the test at home for under 200 dollars and get a APAP script. I did mine less than a month ago and it's life changing. If I sleep for 2 hours I feel better than I did with 8 hours while having sleep apnea. The mots c and methylene blue really helped but the APAP was life changing.
Sorry for the long winded post, but wanted to get all the info in.

The problem I have is I have had to take Prilosec for maybe 40 years now. Prilosec can reduce the absorption of vitamin B12 from food, particularly from animal-derived dietary sources that contain protein-bound vitamin B12. Omeprazole (Prilosec) inhibits gastric acid production, which is necessary for the activation of pepsin, an enzyme that cleaves proteins and releases vitamin B12 for absorption. Reduced acid levels also lead to increased gastric pH, which can promote bacterial overgrowth in the gastrointestinal tract; these bacteria can consume vitamin B12 before it is absorbed in the ileum. As a result, long-term use of omeprazole—especially for three years or more—increases the risk of developing vitamin B12 deficiency, which may lead to complications such as macrocytic anemia. I also have been taking Metformin for 10 years as part of my longevity program. It too interferes with B-12 absorption. The only way to solve this is by doing B-12 injections and completely bypassing the digestive system.
I consume about 46..2ug of B-12 in my diet, which is about 1932% over RDA from the 325g of protein I eat on a daily basis. Still my blood levels of B-12 are very low, so I have no choice but to supplement.
Sleep apnea? Did a in clinic study back in 2007 and have been using a CPAP since then. I had OSA.
The B-12 I have is 5000ug/ml.
