What's the difference between b-12 and ultra mic injections?

Dr. Pacholec offers B-12 shots for energy and MIC lipotropic Ultra Burn injections to quickly burn fat at both of her St Petersburg, FL and Lutz, FL locations. These injections are both useful for medical weight loss, burning fat and creating energy, but there are slight differences between the two. Read below to learn more!

B-12 injections

• Useful for patients who feel fatigued, stressed, or anxious
• B-12 is better assimilated when injected directly into bloodstream vs taken orally
• B vitamins help convert carbohydrates into glucose which is “burned” to produce energy.
• Helps in breakdown of proteins and fats in food for better absorption of nutrients
• Helps to maintain muscle tone lining the digestive tract
• Promotes healthy nervous system, hair, nails, eyes and liver
• Increases energy and contributes to successful weight loss

MIC lipotropic Ultra Burn Injection

Lipotropics are amino acids including Methionine, Inositol, and Choline which enhance the role of the liver and gallbladder by decreasing fat deposits, speeding up the metabolism, and removing fat. This helps to induce weight loss by preventing and relieving fatigue. Lipotropics combined with B vitamins raise the body’s metabolic rate and work synergistically to help patients burn fat and lose weight.

• Methionine: assists in the breakdown of fats within the liver, prevents excess fat buildup, and is a powerful anti-oxidant which detoxifies the body of heavy metals.
• Inositol: maintains proper electrical energy and nutrient transfer across the cell membrane. It is a B vitamin and mild lipotropic which converts fats into other useful products. It assists in the production of serotonin, which is a neurotransmitter known to control mood and appetite and is known to deliver a calming effect on the body, improve quality of sleep and treat depression. It also helps to lower LDL cholesterol, which is known as the “bad” cholesterol that increases the risk of heart disease.
• Choline: promotes weight loss, maintains cholesterol levels and prevents gallstones. It is a B vitamin which helps produce the important neurotransmitter acetylcholine, and is vital to healthy function of the nervous system. It improves the liver’s ability to process and excrete chemical byproducts, thereby assisting in weight loss and support of the endocrine, hepatic and cardiovascular systems.
• Thiamine (B1): serves as a catalyst in carbohydrate metabolism, helps the body adapt to stress and avoid adrenal fatigue, and assists in the metabolism of thyroid hormones.
• Other B vitamins included in this injection are B2, B3, B5 (Pantothenic Acid), B6 (Pyroxidine) and B-12. These vitamins assist in the metabolism of fats, proteins and carbohydrates which increases energy and promotes weight loss.
