Vital and productive

with Vitamin B12 forte Hevert injection

If you feel exhausted, listless and having lost the energy for daily life, vitamin B12 may help. The most important vitamin in the group of B vitamins performs many tasks in our body, such as building up the genetic information that is DNA, cell reproduction, acting as a catalyst for energy metabolism, protecting the nerve cells, and forming red blood cells. It’s hardly surprising that deficiency affects mind and body. There are various reasons for a vitamin B12 deficiency, but most of them relate to an intestine absorption of the vitamin. The causes include bowel diseases, gastritis, certain medications, and decreased absorption in old age. Vegetarians, vegans or people with an unbalanced diet can also experience a vitamin B12 deficiency.

Vitamin B12 forte Hevert injection is intended to ensure rapid and long lasting elimination of vitamin B12 deficiency symptoms. At the physical level, these include anemia, exhaustion, loss of appetite, nerve pain, muscle tremor, coordination disorders, and tingling or a sense of numbness in the legs. At the psychological level, a lack of vitamin B12 can lead to depressive mood, listlessness, difficulty concentrating, nervousness, and sleep disorders.

Vitamin B12 forte Hevert injection contains high-dose cyanocobalamin, the most stable form of the vitamin, which is used in most vitamin B12 medicines. The injection is much more effective than vitamin B12 taken as a tablet, because of the low absorption rate in the intestine. To achieve a long lasting effect, a course of injections is carried out by a doctor or naturopathic practitioner, usually over several weeks.
