SubQ vitamins?

Original post in this thread

le_locoroco · 5 points

I was looking into IV vitamin therapy and came across http://defymedical.com/component/content/article/2-uncategorised/83-calm-injection-therapy

A "calming" blend that can be administered via SubQ containing:
GABA 50mg
Magnesium 50mg
Taurine 50mg
Theanine 50mg
L-Tryptophan 50mg

....A custom formulated nutrient injection used to promote relaxation and sleep. CALM injections can also be used to treat migraines, anxiety, or muscle tension."

The idea of having 100% bioavailable nutrients by passing gut absorption seems really appealing to me. I've taken b12 injections and have felt great on them, and seems much more effective than taking it orally or even sublingually. Does anyone have any success with injecting vitamins? Anyone have good/cheap sources? I'm also looking into IV vitamin therapy but you have to get those in a clinic setting rather than at home.

I think it would be cool if Ceretropic could start making proprietary blends to be used for injection. After doing SubQ injections of Semax/P21, it really isn't that big of a deal and there is no pain. It's way more efficacious and cost effective than oral supplements as well. I don't think there are many vendors either...

Most things do not need injection. There are a lot of scams out there. Be very wary of things like that. That CALM injection is a load of BS. They are skirting the line between fraudulently acting as a physician without a license. They call it a practice, and named it Defy Medical. However, they never outright say "Medical Practice." I am not a lawyer, but I think a good case could be made that they are breaking the law there. Either way, that injection is BS.
