Vitamin B12 is a essential vitamin that plays a vital role in various key functions of the body, primarily in maintaining the health of the nervous system. When levels of this vitamin are insufficient, commonly known as a deficiency, vitamin B12 injections are administered to address this condition. B12 aids the body in utilising fats and carbohydrates for energy production and facilitating protein synthesis. Furthermore, it plays a significant role within the blood, cells, and nerves.
