A Shot of Vitamin B-12

This is a happy day for all of us who have used vitamins for years. As reported in Bottom Line Personal, Dr. Arthur Winter, who is the director of the New Jersey Neurological Institute, said that B-12 shots can fight:

Alzheimer's disease
Depression
Panic Disorders

B-12 can break down chemicals that help maintain memory and mood.

One reason that so many people face these issues could be the fact that, according to Dr. Winter, 20% of Americans over age 40 do not produce enough stomach acid to absorb B-12 from protein in food so they are deficient in B-12.
