Energize with vitamin b12 shots

Vitamin B Shots Available here

Vitamin B Shots Available here

The thought of a needle always makes me cringe but the vitamin B12 shots are not so bad and did not hurt in comparison to a flu shot. And they are a very important injection to receive because they will benefit the health functioning of your immune system. This has a better chance of keeping away the flu better than any flu jab. If we are feeling low in energy it would be wise to go to your doctor to get start a course of vitamin B12 shots because the release of this vitamin will aid the metabolism of nutrients for use as fuel. They are a great way to renew your energy source and get you back up on your feet. B group vitamins do not stay long in the body and are passed out through fluid expulsion. They need to be regularly replaced to help your body achieve its normal function without and trouble. B12 vitamins are just as important as any other vitamin for ensuring homeostasis, the equality of our bodies’ harmony. A deficiency can leave us feeling weak and lethargic. A long term deficiency can affect neurological pathways causing neurological disturbances.

Vitamin B12 shots will help you receive your required daily intake of this vitamin which is essential for other vitamins to do their jobs also. Each vitamin is interlinked with each other in some minor way but this nevertheless reduced the bodies’ ability to regulate normal body processes in the normal way. It can ever block or stop some body functions is there is a large enough deficit. Vitamin B12 shots may be useful if you are not eating a sufficiently nutrient rich diet. This vitamin can be found in oysters and other types of seafood, beef, egg yolk and cheese. If in doubt ask your doctor to do a test to find out if vitamin B12 shots are right for you.

ANY LAB TEST NOW® Blog – Vitamin D Deficiency

October 21st, 2009 AnyLabTestNow-Cle No comments

ANY LAB TEST NOW® Blog – Vitamin D Deficiency.

Symptoms of a deficiency could be bone pain, muscle weakness, low energy and depression but frequently symptoms are subtle or nonexistent. The list of possible health problems includes osteoporosis and osteoarthritis, high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, severe asthma and other lung diseases, and an increased risk in cancer, specifically of the breast, colon, prostate and pancreas.

Vitamin D deficiency has also been linked to Type 2 Diabetes and autoimmune diseases such as Multiple Sclerosis and Crohn’s disease. There is even evidence that it could lead to cognitive impairment in older adults. According to the Mayo Health Clinic the health benefits of adequate amounts of vitamin D are numerous, especially in older adults. Getting screened for vitamin D and taking steps to ensure that you are getting an adequate amount of the vitamin can help prevent serious health issues and improve your quality of life.

Where Is My Sunshine?

Have you checked your Vitamin D levels?

Have you checked your Vitamin D levels?

Many of us consider ourselves fortunate that we live in northeastern Ohio, “The Best Location in the Nation.”  At the same time, we recognize that as summer

turns to fall, we’re due for our rerun of cloudy gray days for which this area is also well known.  Normally, getting enough sunshine, and with it vitamin D (the sunshine vitamin) is simply a matter of 10 – 15 minutes of sun exposure 2 to 3 times a week.  Reduced hours of daylight at this time of year make getting an adequate amount of sunshine and vitamin D more difficult. 

If you’re like me, you miss your sunshine.  Darker days may tend to darken our mood and insufficient amounts of vitamin D are also apt to result in numerous other health issues.  Our primary source of Vitamin D is from the sun.  Adequate vitamin D – 200 IU per day for children and 400 IU per day for adults 50 and over – can ward off problems and help us to maintain good health.   

Unfortunately, a staggering number of Americans do not get enough Vitamin D.

Even in summer, many of us, concerned that overexposure to the sun can lead to skin cancer, have made the use of sunscreen a staple of our summer lives.  The down side of this is that the use of sunscreen blocks vitamin D absorption, which is thought to contribute to our vitamin D deficiency.   

Other conditions which reduce the body’s ability to absorb vitamin D include: darker skin, certain medications, some intestinal diseases, such as Crohn’s and celiac disease, as well as obesity. 

One important function of vitamin D is its being responsible for the processing of calcium for strong bones.  In fact, the National Osteoporosis Foundation recommends 800 – l000 IU per day, with an upper limit of 2000 IU.  While vitamin D can be found in fortified foods such as milk, cheese, grains, eggs, fish and fish liver oil, we now know it is almost impossible to acquire enough vitamin D from diet alone. 

Vitamin D deficiencies have been linked to:

  • Bone pain
  • Muscle weakness
  • Low energy
  • Depression 
  • Type 2 Diabetes
  • Multiple Sclerosis
  • Chron’s disease
  • Cognitive impairment in older adults

Most of us simply are not getting enough.  According to a study conducted by Dr. Michael Melarned at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine published in the Journal of Pediatrics in August, over 70% of American children are not getting enough vitamin D – and the number is higher for older Americans. 

Other Possible Health Problems include:

  • Osteoporosis
  • Osteoarthritis
  • High blood pressure
  • Severe asthma and lung diseases
  • Increased risks of cancers of breast, colon, prostate and pancreas 
  • Now, with our change of seasons, is a great time for you to be screened for vitamin D with our Vitamin D Hydroxy D2/D3 test.  In the kidney, vitamin D changes into an active form of the vitamin.  Our test measures vitamin D in its active form which helps control calcium and phosphate levels in the body. 

    It has been said that Knowledge is power. When you know the status of your health, you can make changes when they are needed. We all want quality of life.  Let us help you to that end. This Vitamin D test is one of many offered by Any Lab Test Now  which will enable you to better take charge of your health.    (216) 381-6200

The Health Benefits of Vitamin D: The Super Supplement

The Health Benefits of Vitamin D: The Super Supplement.

Vitamin D is known as “the sunshine vitamin” because we get much of our vitamin D from the sun. Over the last two decades, studies have found that the level of vitamin D has dropped dramatically in Americans; this is probably because we have been told to stay out of the sun or use sunscreen.

The GOLD Standard of Vitamin D test is now available at Any Lab Test Now! http://www.anylabtestcleveland.com

The unwitting subjects paid $300 for the test on-line

September 18th, 2009 AnyLabTestNow-Cle No comments

Paternity Blog

Any Lab Test Now provides the highest quality of paternity tests utilizing a lab the most accreditations in the industry.    Today we had an incident in which someone came to one of our facilities to get an explanation of the results for a paternity test ordered on-line.    The test had our logo, but it clearly wasn’t done at our facility.  The results were in Spanish with a minimal amount of detail.

The unwitting subjects paid $300 for the test on-line, and we don’t have any confidence that the results are correct.   Any Lab Test Now is concerned that a company is using our branding to market invalid paternity tests to unsuspecting people.   Paternity tests can be hearth wrenching, life changing tests, and should be taken very seriously.  Even if you don’t use Any Lab Test Now, we implore you to do thorough research on the laboratory.  Unfortunately, there are companies who will take advantage of people when they are vulnerable.
