Alright, my appetite is shit and always has been so I decided to buy some B12 hoping that might help a little since I am post cycle and need to eat everything I can to keep my weight up. These are my questions:
How many mcg's a day should I be getting to get some real benefits. The bottle is a sublingual spray and each dose has 5000mcgs or 83,333% of the daily value. Seems high but daily values are normally quite low as we all know. (Other B12 supplements had about 250mcgs per capsule and they said to take 1 to 2 a day.) Should I use 1,2,3 sprays a day? I was thinking about 1 in the morning and one at night.

Also, what is the difference between injectable B12 and the oral kind other than one is injected and one isn't?

Any help you guys can give me would be of great help, as I said...I've never had an appetite and eating is a serious chore. I need all the help I can get. Thanks!

I usually use 10,000 mcg inj., once a day
as needed, i.e on especially rigorous
leg days. In your case, twice a day seems
about right, of course, you might not
be getting quite 5,000mcg per dose (due
to enzyme degradation)...but this would
be trivial.

This question should be asked by Caligula but I'll reply here. Muscle and Fiction lol

B-12 will increase your appetite, but not like Eq or other drugs. My maintanance dose is 5mg/wk now, but you may want to take that much twice a week or even daily.

the orall B12 is worthless.
go to your doc & tell him u havnt been eating fish meat etc. and feeling like shit. try to point him toword the injecable B12.
if that doesnt work go to a farm/animal suplier and ask for B12 or B complex injectable (for your sick old dog.
try 2-4mg per week.

Caligula wanted to ask this question but he is currently tied up in my basement polishing my shoes...his crime...reading muscle & fiction.
