In addition to reducing or eliminating the symptoms of B12 deficiency, research suggests that B12 shots may: Reduce stress (7) Support central nervous system function, red blood cell formation, and DNA synthesis (2) Reduce the risk of vision loss from age-related macular degeneration (8) Lower homocysteine levels, which is associated with cardiovascular disease and stroke (9, 10)
Megaloblastic anemia Diminished activity of methionine synthase in vitamin B 12 deficiency inhibits the regeneration of tetrahydrofolate (THF) and traps folate in a form that is not usable by the body ( Figure 3 ), resulting in symptoms of folate deficiency even in the presence of adequate folate
The preservative allows multiple withdrawals from the same vial

In addition, there is a likely analogy (see for review i.e., (Seiwerth et al., 2018)) with the attenuated fibrosis and scar formation in other tissues (i.e., the skin, muscle, tendon, and ligament) (Mikus et al., 2001
