first, iu stands for international unit. Lately, I have only seen the Vitamin B-Complex, which does contain 1000mg/mL. You may want to do some conversions on your own with the IU because I don't know. From my information, you would take (intramuscular) 1cc every 2-3 days. Thats a 1000mg every 2-3 days. | ||

International Unit I take 5mg/week or 4 days. I think E2 said he takes about half that. I don't know the conversion from I.U's | ||

I.U. is simply the standard for defining the amount of an enzyme that catalyzes the formation of one mole of product per minute. I take 10,000 I.U on days when I need a boost. | ||

I have only come across it in 1000mcg/ml in 30ml vials. I would think 1000mcg daily is sufficient. ------------------  | ||

How effective is b12 for energy? I've tried sublingual, but wasn't that impressed. | ||

It's not a huge difference but it is noticable. Every little bit helps....plus it's just a vitamin, which is good. ------------------ UP-TO-DATE information on STEROIDS and PERFORMANCE ENHANCING DRUGS: | ||

So I got to ask. How many Flintstone chewables will I need to do before I see the right amount of B12? | ||

B12 injections are given out at every training camp in the NFL. It is great for energy and it helps your muscles grow by aiding in protein synthesis it is also essential in carbohydrate and fat metabolism. If you can get injectable B12...take it. |
