Vitamin Injections

Why get Vitamin Injections?

While it’s best to get your vitamins and minerals through your food, sometimes life can make it difficult. Vitamin injections are not a replacement for a healthy diet and lifestyle but they are a quick and easy way to boost your energy and wellness. Vitamin injections deliver concentrated levels of vitamins/minerals right into the bloodstream. Injections are 100% absorbed, we can not achieve these levels with supplementation. This is why we offer nutrient injections at Lake Stevens Natural Medicine, these injections are a quick and effective way to have more energy, better sleep, better recovery, clearer thoughts and improve your overall health.

Several reasons why you are vitamin deficient:

• • Your Age – as you get older you produce less stomach acid and digestive enzymes making it more difficult to absorb your nutrients.
  • Antacids – these drugs reduce stomach acid leading to lower amounts of nutrients being absorbed.
  • Inflamed gut – you absorb your nutrients in the intestines if they are inflamed then they can not work the way intestines should. Food intolerances, chronic infections, IBS, SIBO and inflammatory bowel diseases all cause inflammation in your intestines.
  • Autoimmune disease – Inflammation depletes nutrients. You are using more nutrients than you can absorb.
  • Your Diet – a diet lacking adequate nutrients can leave you deficient. Studies show that our food contains less nutrients than it did in the past making it more difficult to get enough.
  • Medications, almost all medications create nutrient deficiencies. For example, metformin depletes B12.
