LIPOTROPIC (LIPO-B COMPLEX) INJECTION INFORMATION
1. Methionine is lipotropic, meaning that it assists in metabolizing fat. It is an essential amino acid and is an aid to two other amino acids, cysteine and taurine.
2. Inositol is a co-enzyme that is required for the proper metabolism of fats. Inositol metabolizes fats and cholesterol and aids in transporting fat in the bloodstream.
3. Choline is another co-enzyme that is required for the metabolism of fats (blend fats with water) and thus lead to transport of fats out of the liver.
4. B-complex vitamins included in this injection are riboflavin (B2), niacin (B3), pyridoxine (B6), and cyanocobalamin (B12). These vitamins are essential for converting calories from protein, carbs, and fats into energy.
This mixture for injection is called MIC B-Complex, so named after the first letters of the components (Methionine, Inositol, Choline, B-complex vitamins).
The standard dose is 1 - 2ml given into a deep muscle.
I have been informed of the following regarding the injection:
» While all components generally have no side effects, doses must be taken at regular intervals. The injections are only effective temporarily. As soon as the effect of these drugs wears out, the body starts returning to normal.
» Some redness, minor discomfort, small bruising and bleeding at the injection site may occur. This will usually dissipate in a minimal amount of time.
» Some people have experienced allergic reactions to the injections.
» Weight loss can be inconsistent from one week to the next. There can be no guarantees as to the timetable of a weight loss program.
» If any abnormal heart racing occurs, I will contact my medical provider immediately.
» I will inform my practitioner of any changes in my medical history, current medications, and/or any changes relevant to this procedure prior to any future treatments.
