But its not clear that the same is true for human patients
Circulating MOTS-c levels are lower in older adults, lower in people with insulin resistance, and rise acutely in response to high-intensity exercise [2]
The typical vitamin B-12 injection dosage that is administered is 1000 micrograms, or 1.0 CC
According to one large study in 9,075 people, having higher blood levels of vitamin B12 was associated with a lower risk of obesity ( Similarly, another study in 976 people showed that having low levels of vitamin B12 was linked to a higher risk of overweight or obesity ( Whats more, a study in 256 children showed that children with lower levels of vitamin B12 tended to have a higher body mass index (BMI), which is a measure of body size determined by height and weight ( However, keep in mind that while these studies show an association between vitamin B12 status and body weight, they dont take other potentially contributing factors into account
These individuals may need much higher doses or may not see the same results as they would with injections
