intrinsic factor in the stomach, which is necessary for the absorption of the vitamin,
therefore vitamin injections directly into the muscle is recommended.
Vegetarians (especially vegans) are also given shots of Vitamins since their diet is low in
animal products, the primary source of many vitamins.
People with chronic fatigue, irritability and immunity disorders require monthly injections of

Vitamin shots are most effective when taken at regular intervals (usually monthly). A regular
schedule to receive the injections can be customized to each individual.
