Injection — A Different Approach to Supplements

Many vitamin, mineral, and amino supplements are not well absorbed by the body when taken orally because the liver removes 90% of the nutrition you take orally. Additionally, for some individuals, the gastrointestinal tract does not allow for adequate vitamin absorption.

Administering an injection allows for much higher doses of these nutrients to be absorbed directly into the body. Injectable nutrition is available immediately for use by the body. Vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and certain other nutrients can have incredibly potent drug-like effects when injected without the side effects often seen with prescription medications.

There is scientific research that shows that certain conditions can benefit from the use of injectable vitamins and amino acids. A few of the conditions that may be helped using injectable vitamin therapy include the following:

  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • Immune disorders
  • Hypertension
  • COPD
  • Asthma
  • Fibromyalgia
  • Fatigue
  • Diabetes, hepatitis
  • Viral infections like the common cold
  • HIV
  • Body fat accumulation
  • Cancer

Since the liver removes 90% of the nutrition you take orally, injectable nutrition is available immediately for use by the body. New England Low-T Center can provide customized blends to meet your needs and optimize your health. For a free, no-obligation consultation, please call today.

Vitamin Therapies Offered

Glutathione-L

Glutathione injections work by clearing the body of toxins and free radicals that lead to hyperpigmentation, age spots, sun spots, wrinkles, acne, and even melasma. It also has anti-inflammatory benefits. The most effective way to enhance glutathione levels is having regular glutathione injections.

GOAL (Glutamine/Ornithine/Arginine/Lysine) + Lidocaine

GOAL is an amino acid blend that is commonly utilized for weight loss, recovery, and performance. It is beneficial for people who exercise frequently, are bodybuilders, weight-lifters, or athletes in general. 

  • Glutamine improves immunity and aids in cellular repair, healing, and intestinal health. It assists with weight loss by improving gut health and cellular digestion. 
  • Ornithine helps to manage fatigue by stabilizing energy levels and promoting better sleep. It’s utilized to reduce fatigue and improve measures of athletic performance such as speed, strength, and power in some people. Also, taking ornithine in combination with arginine seems to improve strength and power in male weightlifters.
  • Arginine is known to support blood vessel tone and boost nitric oxide levels. In combination with lysine, its fatty acids help to burn calories, thus giving the body a necessary source of energy.
  • Lysine is an amino acid that may boost energy levels, promote weight loss processes, and support the digestive system. This combination is often the power punch patients are looking for to improve overall health while improving body composition encouraged by improved metabolic function resulting in weight loss.

Leucine/Isoleucine/Valine (BCAA)

Increase muscle growth and prevent fatigue with BCAA (branched-chain amino acids). BCAA refers to three amino acids: L-Leucine, L-Isoleucine, and L-Valine. BCAA supplementation, for people with low dietary protein intake, can promote muscle protein synthesis and increase muscle growth over time.

Vitamin D3 in Sesame Oil

Technically, vitamin D isn’t a vitamin at all. It’s a type of fat-soluble hormone produced by the body. This is achieved by converting the rays of the sun into vitamin D when they’re absorbed into the skin. However, there are several factors that may prevent you from getting enough vitamin D from sunlight. These include the use of UV-blocking sunscreen, too much time spent indoors, or pollution and cloud cover that keeps UV rays from fully reaching the earth’s atmosphere.

The potential benefits of vitamin D include the following:

  • Strong bones — Vitamin D helps prevent brittle, weak bones — and lowers the risk of osteoporosis that can occur as a result — because it helps the body absorb bone-building calcium. Too little vitamin D can cause bone pain, as well as muscle weakness, in a condition called osteomalacia. 
  • A healthy heart — Vitamin D may provide crucial support in maintaining healthy blood vessels (which may lower high blood pressure) and lowering cholesterol (to cut the risk of atherosclerosis/plaque buildup on blood vessel walls). 
  • A responsive immune system — Vitamin D may be helpful with immune support in warding off the germs that can cause colds, the flu, or other illnesses. It may also be effective in alleviating symptoms of inflammation caused by autoimmune diseases. 
  • An elevated mood — If you are struggling with mood disorders such as depression, vitamin D may help; some research indicates a link between low blood levels of vitamin D and depression symptoms. 
  • Cognitive health — Some researchers have found that the brain has many vitamin D receptors, and it’s crucial not just for developing babies’ brains in-utero but also for maintaining cognitive function throughout life.
  • Diabetes and weight loss support — Low levels of vitamin D have been linked to obesity and diabetes. Eliminating a vitamin D deficiency may help manage diabetes symptoms and enhance weight loss efforts.

Arginine

Arginine has been shown to increase the body’s production of proteins and growth hormones, which have been shown to help build muscle and help individuals work out more frequently. Arginine has also been shown to aid the body in producing nitric oxide to improve blood flow, which can aid in improving the delivery of nutrients throughout your body and may even lead to increased sexual ability.

B-Complex (B2, B3, B6, B12 Cyanocobalamin + Vitamin C

  • B2 (riboflavin) is an easily absorbed micronutrient. It plays a key role in energy metabolism and the metabolism of fats, carbohydrates, ketone bodies, and proteins.
  • B3 (niacinamide) assists in the functioning of the digestive system, skin, and nerves. It is also important for the conversion of food to energy.
  • B6 (pyridoxine) is needed for more than 100 enzymes involved in protein metabolism. It is also essential for red blood metabolism. The nervous and immune systems need B6 to function efficiently, and it is also needed for the conversion of tryptophan to niacin.
  • B12 (cyanocobalamin) is a manufactured version of vitamin B12. It's used to treat and prevent vitamin B12 deficiency anemia (when you have low levels of this vitamin in your body). Your body requires vitamin B12 to make red blood cells.
  • Vitamin C injections provide a variety of benefits:
  • Absorbed better than oral supplements
  • Reduces fatigue
  • Improves the look and quality of the skin
  • Gentler on sensitive stomachs
  • Boosts the immune system
  • Gives you more energy

GAC (Glutamine/Arginine/Carnitine)

  • Glutamine — This is an amino acid, specifically the most prevalent amino acid in the body. It aids in digestion and muscle growth and can reduce muscle soreness. It is particularly beneficial during prolonged endurance exercise. It can help reduce sugar cravings as well, which is great for individuals who struggle with a sweet tooth. It can enhance exercise recovery and boost physical performance. Glutamine can also assist with injury healing. Glutamine may cause higher growth hormone levels in the body.
  • Arginine — This is an amino acid converted into nitric oxide (NO). NO is a powerful vasodilator that increases the blood flow to your muscles and organs. This can increase physical performance and exercise recovery. Additionally, arginine can increase sexual performance in a mechanism similar to Viagra (vasodilatation). Several studies have shown that injectable arginine can boost growth hormone levels. Like glutamine, arginine can help with sore muscles. It also supports hormone function and assists kidneys in ridding the body of waste. It helps the body produce nitric oxide as well. Nitric oxide helps widen blood vessels to deliver nutrients and oxygen to muscles for enhanced performance in the gym. 
  • L-Carnitine — L-Carnitine is a nutrient that helps the body turn fat into energy. It is produced by the body in the liver and kidneys and stored in the skeletal muscles, heart, and brain. It enhances energy levels as well as helps the body utilize fat for energy. In addition, it helps limit muscle damage during resistance training. This benefit combined with more energy means it allows individuals to perform additional physical activity for longer periods of time. Additionally, carnitine can increase androgen receptor density making testosterone and other androgens work more efficiently.

GAC supplementation can help individuals reach their health and fitness goals much faster than using diet and exercise alone. It’s also an excellent method of increasing energy levels and supporting general wellness. GAC injections can reap the following benefits:

  • Improves energy levels
  • Enhances fat loss (lipolysis)
  • Boosts nitric oxide levels
  • Encourages lean muscle development
  • Prevents muscle loss
  • Faster workout recovery
  • Supports circadian rhythm

GACLIV (Glutamine/Arginine/Carnitine/Leucine/Isoleucine/Valine)

  • Glutamine is one of the body’s most abundant amino acids and is the building block for all essential proteins. It is used to boost the immune system and combat the effects of stress on the body. It enhances exercise performance and speeds up muscle recovery, which allows you to burn more calories. 
  • Arginine is an amino acid that converts into nitric oxide. Nitric oxide improves circulation and blood flow. Its positive effects on blood circulation improve workout performance and reduce muscle recovery. 
  • Carnitine converts body fat into energy. It reduces body fat, increases muscle mass, improves stamina, improves strength, and lessens fatigue. Its muscle-building properties are pretty impressive, which also makes it an excellent amino for fat burning. Carnitine has also been used to boost energy during times of caloric deficit, which can help to eliminate fatigue and irritability while dieting. It helps improve concentration and cognitive thinking. 
  • L-Leucine, L-Isoleucine, and L-Valine are branch chain amino acids. BCAAs are roughly 1/3 of the amino acids in muscle tissue. Essential amino acids are not synthesized by the body on their own. This is why supplementation is needed. These specific amino acids promote muscle growth by protein synthesis. They also help prevent fatigue. L-Isoleucine increases endurance. It also helps repair lean tissue and promotes blood clotting at the site of injury.

LIPO-B MIC Injection

  • Methionine is an amino acid. It acts as a lipotropic agent (to speed up the removal of fat within the liver) to prevent problems with the skin and nails. It works as an antioxidant through a conversion process to L-Cysteine to help neutralize toxins.
  • Inositol is part of the vitamin B complex. As a mild lipotropic agent, it is used to help with weight loss and redistributing body fat by breaking down or emulsifying fats in the body. It also helps promote healthy hair and skin.
  • Choline is also part of the vitamin B family. It helps the utilization of fats in the body and supports weight loss. It helps in the emulsification of fats and cholesterol in the body by helping form smaller fat globules in the blood and aiding the transport of fats through the small vasculature and in and out of the cells. It also helps with general body detoxification by “decongesting” the liver of excess fats. It is also helpful for fatigue. When choline is depleted in the body, fat metabolism and utilization may be decreased.

Your liver is responsible for removing fat and toxins from your body, so the healthier it is, the better your body operates. The cocktail B12 and Lipo vitamin shots enhance liver function and increase the flow of fats and bile from the liver and gallbladder. By speeding up the removal of fat within the liver, your bodily functions start to improve. This is important for those who are sleep-deprived and working long hours because your body is putting in extra hours without rest.

The most important vitamin is B12, which keeps your energy steady without any energy drink or coffee feeling jitters. Vitamin B12 lipotropic injections help detox your liver, energize your entire body, and boost your metabolism.

Here is a list of Lipo-B injection potential benefits:

  • Provides a clean, no-jitter energy boost
  • Speeds up thought processes and focus
  • Improves your mood
  • Promotes alertness
  • Kickstarts your brain to feel motivated
  • Boosts your metabolism by helping to digest food
  • Helps burn fat – increases the transformation of carbohydrates into energy
  • Helps control cholesterol levels and gallstones
  • Helps reset metabolism of fats and removal of fat from your liver
  • Provides essential components of normal cell and brain function
  • Helps reduce cholesterol and detoxify amines
  • Helps keep your skin tone healthy and your nails strong

NAD+

WHAT IS NAD+ THERAPY?

NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a coenzyme found in all living cells that is essential in key physiological processes in our bodies. As we get older, however, NAD+ production slows down, leading to mental and physical fatigue. One of the ways to supplement declining NAD+ is through NAD+ Therapy. NAD+ Injections help to ensure that it’s absorbed by the bloodstream, rather than being broken down in the digestive system, thereby delivering maximum benefits to your body.

BENEFITS OF NAD+ THERAPY INCLUDE:

1. SUPPLEMENTS ADDICTION RECOVERY

Recovery from addiction is a physically and psychologically brutal process, partly because drug and alcohol abuse has been shown to deplete NAD+ levels. Inadequate amounts of NAD+ make it harder to convert energy broken down from food. There has even been speculation that people who naturally produce less NAD+ may be more likely to develop substance abuse disorders.

Although NAD+ Therapy is by no means a cure for addiction, it can assist with a number of the processes involved in addiction recovery. It can help flush remaining drugs from the system, mitigate the painful effects of withdrawals, and reduce cravings for alcohol and drugs. NAD+ Therapy can even help the body produce more energy naturally, but without the negative side effects of substances like caffeine or sugar.

2. IMPROVES COGNITIVE FUNCTION

As we get older, our cognitive function declines. Memory loss, brain fog, and difficulty concentrating are all symptoms of age-related cognitive degeneration. Insufficient levels of NAD+ can exacerbate these issues, since your body relies on mitochondria and NAD+ to convert glucose into metabolic energy, thus supplying energy to your brain cells. When you don’t have enough NAD+, your brain is unable to convert sufficient amounts of glucose into energy, which leaves your brain cells’ supply of cellular energy depleted.

NAD+ Injections are one way to stimulate neural plasticity, reduce neuroinflammation, and promote mental sharpness. Patients often report improved mental clarity, memory, and ability to focus.

3. ASSIST IN WEIGHT MANAGEMENT

The NAD+ coenzyme is essential to the body’s metabolic processes. As we age, our metabolism slows down, which can cause excessive weight gain. NAD+ helps the body to produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP)¹, an energy-carrying molecule that converts chemical energy from food molecules into fuel for other bodily functions.

When used in tandem with a regimen of diet and exercise, NAD+ Therapy can help patients maintain a healthy weight by stimulating ATP production. The more ATP your body produces, the more efficiently your metabolism functions.

4. BOOST ENERGY

Not only does ATP convert food molecules into usable energy and deliver that fuel to other cells, it also boosts your energy levels in the process. Because of NAD+’s essential role in the production of ATP, NAD+ Therapy can increase energy levels, reduce fatigue, and combat exhaustion. Feeling depleted after a long transatlantic flight? NAD+ Injections are a great way to reduce the side effects of jet lag.

5. AID IN MUSCLE DEVELOPMENT AND RECOVERY

NAD+ Therapy can help boost energy levels and improve reaction times, which are essential for peak athletic performance. Supplementing NAD+ as part of a wellness or exercise routine may help develop muscles during workouts, as well as assist in muscle recovery and repair post-workout.

6. SUPPORT PAIN MANAGEMENT

One of the more popular uses for NAD+ Therapy is in the assistance of managing pain. NAD+ has been shown to reduce inflammation, which is a key contributor to the experience of pain. Best of all, NAD+ Therapy is a non-addictive pain management solution, making it a great option for those who want to avoid the dangers of opioids.

7. IMPROVE MOOD

NAD+ has been shown to boost serotonin, the “feel-good” chemical within the brain. Obtaining NAD+ treatment can boost a deficiency in serotonin, which may positively influence the side effects of depression and anxiety.

Vitamin Glossary

Arginine becomes nitric oxide (a blood vessel-widening agent called a vasodilator) in the body. Early evidence suggests that arginine may help treat medical conditions that improve with increased vasodilation, such as chest pain, clogged arteries, heart disease, heart failure, erectile dysfunction, peripheral vascular disease, and headaches from blood vessel swelling. Arginine also triggers the body to make protein and has been studied for healing wounds, bodybuilding, enhancing sperm production, and preventing tissue wasting in people with critical illnesses.

Choline is a vitamin-like nutrient that helps export accumulating fats in the liver and helps prevent liver damage. It is needed for the synthesis of acetylcholine, a key neurotransmitter, which helps maintain cell membranes, transmit nerve impulses, process fat and cholesterol, and perform other tasks.

Cyanocobalamin is the man-made form of vitamin B12. Vitamin B12 helps your body use fat and carbohydrates for energy and make new protein. It is also important for normal blood, cells, and nerves.

Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid (the building block of protein) in the body. The body can make enough glutamine for its regular needs, but extreme stress (the kind you would experience after very heavy exercise or an injury), may cause your body to need more glutamine than it can make. Most glutamine is stored in muscles. Glutamine is important for removing excess ammonia (a common waste product in the body). It also helps your immune system function and appears to be needed for normal brain function and digestion.

Glutathione is an antioxidant that is contained within our bodies and acts as a buffer for any harmful toxins, chemicals, or damaged cells that are introduced. Luckily, the body is capable of producing its own glutathione, which keeps the body healthy and functioning properly. Glutathione can be depleted rather quickly if a person is sick, has been working out hard, drinking, or smoking, which can lead to more illness. In fact, when people have an illness or disease, they also are low in glutathione, which can then lead to additional health issues.

Glutathione has been used in treatments for chronic fatigue syndrome, heart disease, cancer, chronic infections, autoimmune disease, diabetes, autism, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, arthritis, asthma, kidney problems, liver disease, fertility, and more. In fact, glutathione is so powerful that it is used regularly to combat the negative radiation effects of chemotherapy!

Another benefit to glutathione is muscle recovery in athletes and those leading active lifestyles. Several studies have shown that test subjects supplementing glutathione had an increase in lean muscle mass over control groups that did not add glutathione. While not considered a testosterone booster, glutathione is a powerful antioxidant and very intense workouts or fitness routines can cause stress in the body. Presumably, the increased glutathione removes the damage and free radicals caused by the workout which speeds up the body’s ability to heal and rebuild muscle.

Inositol is a B vitamin and plays a role in nerve transmission and fat metabolism. Inositol works at the cellular level and is thought to prevent the formation of cancer and may even shrink preexisting cancers. Inositol helps lower cholesterol levels.

Isoleucine is also an essential amino acid that you cannot produce on your own. Dietary proteins are a source of this amino acid as well, including eggs, seaweed, fish, and many seeds. Isoleucine is an important amino acid as it assists your body in the utilization of ketone bodies and fatty acids. This is a critical process of fat mobilization and utilization. A deficit of this amino acid can not only limit your ability to mobilize fat but also cause cerebral dysfunction.

L-carnitine is an amino acid that is found in nearly all cells of the body. L-carnitine plays a critical role in the production of energy from long-chain fatty acids. In addition, it increases the activity of certain nerve cells in the central nervous system.

L-citrulline is used as a sports performance and cardiovascular health supplement. L-citrulline supplementation results in reduced fatigue and improved endurance for both aerobic and anaerobic prolonged exercise. There is not enough evidence to support the claim that L-citrulline supplementation improves power output during exercise.

Leucine is an essential amino acid, which cannot be manufactured in the body. Leucine is used as a dietary supplement because it has been found to slow the breakdown of muscle tissue by increasing the synthesis of muscle proteins.

L-proline is one of the twenty amino acids used in living organisms as the building blocks of proteins. It is a non-essential amino acid that is synthesized from glutamic acid. It is an essential component of collagen and is important for the proper functioning of joints and tendons.

Lysine is an essential amino acid. Lysine has antiviral effects by competing with arginine, which promotes HSV replication. This may help prevent outbreaks of cold sores and genital herpes. Some studies suggest that lysine may make bone-building cells more active and may enhance the production of collagen.

Methionine is an amino acid. It acts as a lipotropic agent (to speed up the removal of fat within the liver) to prevent problems of the skin and nails. It works as an antioxidant through a conversion process to L-cysteine to help neutralize toxins.

NAC or N-acetyl cysteine comes from the amino acid L-cysteine. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. N-acetyl cysteine is also used for preventing liver damage; protecting against environmental pollutants including carbon monoxide, chloroform, urethanes, and certain herbicides; for reducing the toxicity of ifosfamide and doxorubicin, drugs that are used for cancer treatment; as a hangover remedy; for preventing kidney damage due to certain X-ray dyes; and for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).

NADH (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide hydrate) is a coenzyme that is produced by our body and is involved in making energy in the body. NADH can be used to improve mental clarity, alertness & memory. NADH may be beneficial in improving athletic endurance/ fatigue and possibly improve the cognitive function of patients with Alzheimer’s.

Niacinamide (B3) is effective and relatively safe for treating high cholesterol levels. Limited evidence shows that niacin may help with clogged arteries and heart disease.

Ornithine has an anti-fatigue effect by increasing the efficiency of energy consumption and promoting the excretion of ammonia. L-ornithine is a free amino acid and is not richly found in meats or fish. So, it is difficult to obtain amounts of L-ornithine from ordinary meals that would be sufficient to promote the anti-fatigue effect. We recommend L-ornithine intake as a nutritional supplement in cases of physical fatigue.

Pantothenic acid (B5), also known as Dexpanthenol, is critical to the manufacture of red blood cells, as well as stress-related hormones produced in the adrenal glands. Vitamin B5 is also important in maintaining a healthy digestive tract, helps the body use other vitamins, and synthesizes cholesterol.

Pyridoxine (B6) is a water-soluble vitamin. Vitamin B6 is critical for protein metabolism, energy production, and normal nervous system function. It is involved in nearly 60 enzyme systems in the body, necessary for normal growth, red blood cell synthesis, and vitamin B12 absorption.

Riboflavin (B2) is known for increasing energy levels, boosting immune system function, maintaining healthy hair, skin, mucous membranes, and nails, slowing aging, boosting athletic performance, and promoting healthy reproductive function.

Taurine is a sulfur-containing amino acid that is a natural part of the human diet. This amino acid is also an antioxidant and plays a key role in many biological processes, such as detoxification, regulation of nerve-cell activity, preservation of eyesight and may improve heart health.

Thiamine (B1) is involved in many body functions, including the nervous system and muscle function, the flow of electrolytes in and out of nerve and muscle cells, digestion, and carbohydrate metabolism.

Valine — Foods high in valine include eggs, elk, seaweed, soy, and watercress. Valine has shown some effect on brain chemistry, which may affect performance, according to a 2001 study published in the “International Journal of Sports Medicine.” Valine, like the other branched-chain amino acids, can be broken down and converted to glycogen for use as fuel. This occurs primarily when your carbohydrate stores are low, or your diet is deficient in specific proteins and amino acids.

Vitamin B12 is a vital water-soluble nutrient critical for maintaining normal functioning nerve cells. Vitamin B12 is also referred to as the energy vitamin since it will provide an energy boost after injection as well as increase metabolism. Vitamin B12 is used in the metabolism of fats, carbohydrates, and proteins, and is required for fatty acid synthesis.

Vitamin B12 (cyanocobalamin) injection — Cyanocobalamin is the man-made form of vitamin B-12. Vitamin B12 helps your body use fat and carbohydrates for energy and make new protein. It is also important for normal blood, cells, and nerves.

Vitamin B12 (methylcobalamin) injection — Methylcobalamin is the purer, naturally occurring form of vitamin B12. Vitamin B12 helps your body use fat and carbohydrates for energy and make new protein. It is also important for normal blood, cells, and nerves.

Vitamin D-3 injectable — Research has shown that certain levels of vitamin D can actually help determine or predict the chance of your weight loss success when following a low-calorie diet program. Vitamin D is known to be beneficial or crucial for the absorption of calcium & phosphorus, which helps develop and maintain healthy bones. Studies have also shown that people with better vitamin D levels have a better mental function in their older years along with healthier body weight.
