About the Injections:

Lipo-B contains three amino acids; Choline, Methione, and Inositol. It also contains two B vitamins; methylcobalamin and pyridoxine.

  • Methionine (25MG/ML) – assists in the breakdown of fats and thereby prevents the build-up of fat in the arteries, as well as assisting with the digestive system and removing heavy metals from the body since it can be converted to cysteine, which is a precursor to glutathione, which is of prime importance in detoxifying the liver.
  • Choline (50MG/ML) – has been shown to protect the liver from certain types of damage, and can help reverse the damage that has already occurred. Additionally, it may help lower cholesterol and homocysteine levels associated with cardiovascular disease, and may also help protect against some types of cancer.
  • Inositol 50MG/ML) – helps to maintain proper electrical energy and nutrient transfer across the cell membrane. It also acts as a lipotropic which converts fats into other useful products. Inositol helps establish healthy cell membranes, which facilitate nerve impulses.
  • Methylcobalamin (B12) (175 mcg) – important for the normal functioning of the brain and nervous system, and for the formation of blood. It is normally involved in the metabolism of every cell of the body, especially affecting DNA synthesis and regulation, but also fatty acid synthesis and energy production.
  • Pyridoxine (B6) (175 mcg) – assists in the balancing of sodium and potassium as well as promoting red blood cell production. It is linked to cardiovascular health by decreasing the formation of homocysteine. Vitamin B6 helps the body make several neurotransmitters, chemicals that carry signals from one nerve cell to another. It is essential for normal brain development and function and helps the body makes the hormones serotonin and norepinephrine (which influence mood) and melatonin (which helps regulate the body clock).
