Direct Dosage: A single B12 injection often delivers a much higher dose directly into the system than a typical daily oral tablet, particularly when considering the limited absorption rate of the latter, contributing to their perceived and actual strength. However, for individuals with mild dietary deficiencies and no underlying absorption problems, high-dose oral B12 supplements (e.g., 1000-2000mcg daily) can sometimes overcome the need for intrinsic factor by allowing for a small amount of passive absorption, eventually raising levels, though this method is less predictable and slower than direct injection
In aged skeletal muscle models, NNMT inhibitor treatment increased proliferating/active muscle stem cells by 60-75% following injury, myofiber cross-sectional area increased 1.8-fold at one week post-injury with high-dose treatment, and peak torque of injured muscle increased by 67% compared to control (p = 0.033), with no untoward systemic toxicity observed in plasma chemistry markers (Neelakantan et al., 2019)
In the STEP 1 trial, participants receiving semaglutide 2.4 mg lost an average of 14.9% of their body weight over 68 weeks
Many overweight dieters were actually responsible eaters
