Vitamins and Injection
Pura Vida Offers Intramuscular B Vitamin Injections
When vitamins are delivered via injection, the absorption rate goes up significantly. For example, research shows that 90% of vitamin B12 is absorbed via injection, versus only 1.2% of oral B12 because so much is lost during digestion.
