Injection of Vitamin B complex or Vitamin C
Vitamin B complex: This blend of vitamins is essential to mental well-being. Vitamin B complex ensures your brain is in functioning shape and maintains the appropriate stress and energy levels.
Vitamin B12: keeps your metabolism working as it should. It also helps to produce fatigue-fighting nerve and blood cells. Help speed your metabolism and alleviate symptoms of fatigue, giving you the energy kick you need. Your energy boost could last up to several weeks, with the potential for improved immune system response and decreased chronic pain.
Vitamin C: A vitamin that plays many essential roles throughout your body, helping to maintain systems such as muscles, bones, immune support, and your circulatory system.
Vitamin C is an essential micro-nutrient for humans, with pleiotropic functions related to its ability to donate electrons. It is a potent antioxidant and a co-factor for a family of bio-synthetic and gene regulatory enzymes. Vitamin C contributes to immune defense by supporting various cellular functions of both the innate and adaptive immune system. Vitamin C supports epithelial barrier function against pathogens and promotes the oxidant scavenging activity of the skin, thereby potentially protecting against environmental oxidative stress.
Vitamin C accumulates in phagocytic cells, such as neutrophils, and can enhance chemo-taxis, phagocytosis, generation of reactive oxygen species, and ultimately microbial killing. It is also needed for apoptosis and clearance of the spent neutrophils from sites of infection by macrophages, thereby decreasing necrosis/NETosis and potential tissue damage. The role of vitamin C in lymphocytes is less clear, but it has been shown to enhance differentiation and proliferation of B- and T-cells, likely due to its gene regulating effects.
Vitamin C deficiency results in impaired immunity and higher susceptibility to infections. In turn, infections significantly impact on vitamin C levels due to enhanced inflammation and metabolic requirements. Furthermore, supplementation with vitamin C appears to be able to both prevent and treat respiratory and systemic infections. Prophylactic prevention of infection requires dietary vitamin C intakes that provide at least adequate, if not saturating plasma levels (i.e., 100-200 mg/day), which optimize cell and tissue levels. In contrast, treatment of established infections requires significantly higher (gram) doses of the vitamin to compensate for the increased inflammatory response and metabolic demand.
