The benefit of B-12 shots are dubious at best if someone is not B-12 deficient. Perhaps encouraging people to have a B-12 level tested if they have fatigue, mild memory impairment, nervous irritability, mental depression, insomnia, inability to concentrate, lack of balance would be a better (and more ethical) idea?

Perhaps you have never been B12 deficient and don't know the benefits of receiving the supplement. We hope you never need it, but don't discount the needs of others less fortunate!

Knowing both players in this discussion, we have a holistic vs. empirical science battle brewing. There will be no winners. It is what it is. Best to just let it be...

Just sayin...

I'll take science every time.

I'm Botox© deficient. Do you offer that?

Like he said, it's easy enough to find out conclusively whether or not you have this rare deficiency before going all scorched earth with the vitamin supplement.

I am not deficient thus realize that a shot would do me no good. All I am pointing out is that there are a myriad of causes of all the subjective feelings you described in the original post, B12 deficiency among them, but certainly not the only (and not the most common) cause. An honest approach on the lab's part would be to suggest that people who feel run down come in and have a B12 level checked, and if found to be deficient, seek replacement. The lab makes money with the test, and if someone is not truly low on B12, is not simply wasting someone's hard earned money replacing something that isn't deficient in the first place.
