Injections for Nutrition, Weight Loss, and Pain Control
UniMed Center in East Brunswick, New Jersey offers our patients a wide range of injection therapies, including vitamin B12 injections, lipotropic injections, and neuropathy injections. Whether you are looking to remedy a vitamin deficiency, need help losing weight, or are trying to eliminate nerve pain, these injections can help.
Vitamin B12 Injections
Suffering from a vitamin B12 deficiency? These injections may be just what you’re looking for.
B12 is an essential vitamin that aids in the formation and maturation of red bloods cells. It also helps with the maintenance of nerve cells and serves as a building block in our DNA. Not having sufficient levels of vitamin B12 can lead to health issues such as generalized weakness, numbness, leg stiffness, abnormal gait, memory loss, personality change, and a depressed mood.
Vitamin B12 injections can boost memory, mood, energy levels, and the immune system, ultimately helping to slow the aging process. These injections can also lower high homocysteine levels that contribute to heart disease and can help treat the following conditions:
- Allergies
- Asthma
- Depression
- Diabetes
- Male infertility
- Sleep disorders
Vitamin B12 injections are even used to help prevent cervical cancer and other cancers, so contact our office today to learn more about the benefits of UniMed’s vitamin B12 injections.
Lipotropic Injections
Give your weight-loss efforts some added momentum with lipotropic injections at UniMed Center.
If you’re looking to reduce your body’s storage of fat while increasing your metabolism and energy levels, then lipotropic injections may be right for you. These injections increase your body’s natural fat-burning process and, when combined with proper diet and exercise, can help bring you closer to your goal weight.
UniMed lipotropic injections are comprised of carefully calibrated doses of naturally occurring vitamins, amino acids, and minerals that maintain proper liver function and are essential to your overall health. The injections stimulate the breakdown of fat, reducing the accumulation of excess fat in your liver and other body tissues. Our lipotropic injections are a highly effective, safe, and simple way to increase your energy levels and ensure your weight loss success.
Lipotropic injections include the following nutrients (plus more not listed below):
- Choline is responsible for the transfer and metabolism of fats and cholesterol in the body. It can be used to treat gallbladder trouble, diabetes, glaucoma, and memory loss. A deficiency of choline can lead to fatty liver and hardening of the arteries.
- Inositol is a vitamin B complex nutrient that can help control mood and appetite by affecting serotonin levels. It can help reduce blood cholesterol levels and aid fat metabolism. A deficiency of inositol can lead to hair loss.
- Methionine is an amino acid that helps prevent excess fat buildup in the liver and body. Like choline, it helps to reduce the amount of fat in the liver. It also protects the kidneys and can prevent and relieve fatigue. Note: Patients with a sulfa allergy should not take this injection.
