B12 Skinny Shot

Our B12 Skinny Shot combines methyl-B12 (the active, bioavailable form) with lipotropic amino acids—methionine, inositol, and choline (MIC). The MIC compounds support liver function and fat metabolism, while B12 supports energy production. Together they're used for energy, metabolism support, and as an adjunct to weight management programs.

B12 shots aren't a weight loss medication by themselves. They support energy levels (making consistent exercise more sustainable) and the MIC compounds support fat metabolism—but real weight loss still requires caloric balance and movement. B12 shots are an adjunct, not a replacement, for the work of weight management.

Weekly during an initial loading phase (4–6 weeks), then every 1–2 weeks for maintenance. Patients focused on energy or metabolism support often see best results with weekly shots long-term. The shot itself takes seconds.

Quick pinch—takes seconds. We use small needles in the upper arm or hip. Most patients describe it as much easier than expected. No downtime, no soreness usually.

Many patients notice increased energy within 24–48 hours. Others notice it gradually over the first few weeks of regular shots. If your B12 levels were low to begin with, the boost is often dramatic. If you already have adequate B12, the effect may be subtler.

B12 Skinny Shot is $35 per shot. Package pricing available—ask at your visit. Membership pricing reduces per-shot cost. We can administer at any visit—you don't need a separate appointment if you're coming in for something else.

Yes—B12 is water-soluble (excess is excreted), so toxicity is virtually impossible. The lipotropic compounds (methionine, inositol, choline) are nutrients your body needs. Side effects are uncommon and usually minor (slight injection site soreness). Patients with certain rare medical conditions should discuss with their provider first.

Patients with low energy, those over 40 (B12 absorption decreases with age), vegetarians/vegans (limited dietary B12), patients on metformin or PPI medications (which decrease B12 absorption), patients on weight management programs, and anyone wanting energy and metabolic support.

Yes—B12/MIC complements GLP-1 therapy well. As GLP-1 reduces appetite, some patients reduce calorie intake significantly; B12 supports energy and metabolic function during the rapid weight loss phase. We commonly combine them in wellness packages.
