What a coincidence, I just ordered some just now then I see this thread.
It is sub-Q so injection is not anything.
I just bought from a place in the States and it is a Vitamin B12 30ML @ 1000MCG/ ML

The reason I am buying it is for fat loss. I remember that people in the Lindora dieting plan (20 years ago) went low carb and took B-12 injections to aid in fat loss while in ketosis.
I thought what the heck, why not?......I try everything anyway.

I have heard that it is good for getting hunger but then again water and supplements will do this too.

Read me from the site:
Vitamin B12 is necessary for the formation of blood corpuscles, nerve sheaths and various proteins. It is also involved in fat and carbohydrate metabolism and is essential for growth. Adenosylcobalamin is the coenzyme for isomerization of 1-methylmalonyl coenzyme A to succinyl Co A (an important reaction in lipid and carbohydrate metabolism) and in ribonucleotide reduction (which provides building blocks for DNA synthesis). Reactions involving methylcobalamin include biosynthesis of methionine, methane and acetate. There is evidence that vitamin B12 is required in the synthesis of folate polyglutamates (active coenzymes required in the formation of nerve tissue) and in the regeneration of folic acid during red blood cell formation.

Anybody else tried this with any luck?
