Two common treatments for some of the same symptoms are adrenal and B12 injections. If you have symptoms of low energy and fatigue, difficulty managing stress, weight issues and depressed or fluctuating mood swings, you might be suffering from adrenal dysfunction or be deficient in vitamin B12. Nutrient injections are a popular and effective way to help reboot the spring in your step and get you back on your feet feeling normal again.

Adrenal Injections
Adrenal dysfunction is a common problem in our population today. With increasing stress and busy lives, we very often get run down. Symptoms of adrenal dysfunction are:
  • low energy and fatigue 
  • mood swings and hormonal imbalances
  • difficulty managing stress and feelings of overwhelm
  • weight issues
  • low blood sugar problems 
  • dark circles under eyes and skin problems
  • weakened immune function
  • numbness in hands and fingers and poor circulation 
What is in the Adrenal Shot?
Vitamin B1    Helps to improve brain function, increase energy and support the nervous system
Vitamin B6      Helps to balance hormones and reduce sweet and salty cravings 
Vitamin B12    Increased energy and metabolism
Biotin               Supports the nourishment of skin, hair and nails
Folic Acid       Supports cell regeneration and DNA production 
Chromium      Helps to manage blood sugar levels 
AMP                 Supports healthy cellular metabolism (Adenosine Monophosphate)
Procaine         A local anesthetic to prevent pain 
B12 Injections
Vitamin B12 deficiency can occur for a variety of reasons. Vegans and vegetarians, diabetics and pregnant women are some of those affected. People with digestive and absorption issues can also benefit from receiving injections to manage their B12 levels. Symptoms of B12 deficiency are: ​
  • low energy and fatigue
  • stress and depressed moods
  • irritability and memory loss
  • weight issues
  • digestive problems
  • asthma and/or allergies
If you are vegan/vegetarian, suffer from celiac disease or are sensitive to gluten, pregnant, diabetic, or anemic, you could also be at risk for low levels of B12. 
Advantages to Nutrient Therapy
Benefits of nutrient therapy injections offer a quick and effective boost of energy, mental clarity, memory and mood. Each injection is designed to match your individual symptoms and many people report less symptoms soon after receiving the treatments. 

As you can see some of the similarities, it is important to see your trained practitioner like a Naturopathic Doctor to have an assessment and determine if nutrient therapy is suited best for you. There can be risks involved and even some people do not qualify due to specific health reasons. In part with healthy lifestyle changes, proper nutrition and tools to help you manage stress, nutrient therapy is a non-toxic way to help you reboot and get you back to feeling your best!
