Effective Medical Weight Loss
Medical Weight Loss
At thriveMD we offer several doctor formulated weight loss solutions. We also offer Vitamin B12 and MIC (Methionine, Inositol and Choline) injections that can be added to any of our weight loss programs or taken by themselves to assist you with your weight loss.
B12 Injections
The B12 vitamin injections are important to keep the brain and nervous system functioning normally and for the formation of red blood cells. By synthesizing and regulating DNA, B12 is involved in cellular metabolism and may boost your metabolism. It also plays a vital role in fatty acid synthesis and energy production. Many medications, certain medical conditions, some diets and the normal aging process can lead to a B12 deficiency. Injections are the best way to ensure your body gets the B12 if you are B12 deficient.
B12 + MIC Fat-Burner Injections
The vitamin cocktail included in the B12 + MIC Fat-Burner shots are compounds that enhance liver function and increase the flow of fats and bile from the liver and gallbladder. By definition, MIC shots contain lipotropic substances that decrease the deposit, or speeds up the removal of fat within the liver. The key amino acids used to make these shots are: Vitamin B12, Choline, Methione, and Inositol.
Vitamin B12 is essential for helping to form new, healthy cells in the body. It also boosts energy, helping to increase activity levels. It is important to note that all B12’s are NOT created equally. There are several different forms of B12. The two most common are cyanocobalamin and methylcobalamin. The cyanocobalamin is a synthetic form that is much cheaper but not the form you body uses. At thriveMD we never use cyanocobalamin in any of our supplements, IV’s or injections. There is a much better, much healthier form….methylcobalamin!
Choline supports the health of the liver in its processing and excretion of chemical waste products within the body. Moreover, it is required for the transport and metabolism of fats and cholesterol within the body, which is important for the healthy support of the endocrine, cardiovascular and hepatic systems.
Methione is one of the sulphur-containing amino acids (cysteine & cystine are others) and is important for many bodily functions. It acts as a lipotropic agent to prevent excess fat buildup in the liver and the body, is helpful in relieving or preventing fatigue and may be useful in some cases of allergy because it reduces histamine release. Patients with a Sulfa allergy should not take this injection.
Inositol, a nutrient belonging to the B vitamin complex, is closely associated with choline. It aids in the metabolism of fats and helps reduce blood cholesterol. Inositol participates in the action of serotonin, a neurotransmitter known to control mood and appetite.
