Injecting B12- If You're a Natty?

What do you guys and girls think?

I know B12 is 100% natural as its a vitamin, but is injecting qualify as 'legal' in the natural world?

The main thing Im getting at is injecting, I know its not a synthetic hormone, but injecting is questionable, IMO.

i don't think delivery method has anything to do with being natural or not. so i guess i would say it's fine.

I agree with sana, I do not think the delivery method of a naturally occuring substance makes a differance. Altho, you could probably make the same argument for for steroids.

I guess I am not completly sure. Part of it is that B12 is legal, so ..... maybe that playes a part.

Why must you ask such hard questions. Can't you just stick to simple ones like is 1000mg/week of test to much for a noobs first cycle.

Good question.

Its legal. I feel it mostly when I eat... I get real warm, and have a lot more energy after I eat..... injections are ED. Check PowerNutrition.net or Lionnutrition.com.

B12 never did much for me except fighting off a cold(great for this!) but it's not illegal, I would think any sort of supplement is technically not natural. But then again neither is going to the gym, busting your ass and trying to look un-natural.

to me delivery method and legality are not what define "natural"... i define natural as anyone who has not - now or in the past - introduced any androgen into the body in order to increase your free test levels in your body to build more muscle.

so no - you're still not natty if you inject a steroid in mexico just b/c it's legal.

To me injecting B12 is perfectly fine and is something that most should do. B12 really is a great appetite/energy enhancer.

The problem with taking B12 orally is that the GI tract destroys more than 90% of it, so it is not an effective way of taking it at all.

You will have to find a source for it if you live in the US but in Canada you can walk into any pharmacy and pick it up.

The only problem is that it’s an ED injection, which some may not like.

The recommended dose is 1000mcg ED.

Hi Everyone.
I'm new to SM, but I couldn't help but comment. Nice place you'all got here!
I did that (inj. B12)for a while. i thought it really leaned me up. I looked allot more vascular too. Think I'll do it again. Thing is, Natural only gets you so far as your genetic limits. I have a friend who is juicing, and now looks like a gorrilla. I'd rather look natural

If you "inject" are you still considered Natural?? I start the Methyl stack Sunday and have just picked up the 4AD cyp to go with it... a buddy that I train with is totally disgusted and looks down on me now because I will be "injecting" - regardless if it’s just a pro-hormone or a vitamin. So to him, I'm not a natty anymore... this is very debatable and would be a great conversation for a new thread.

Oral b-12 is useless for bbuilding purposes. . .only the injectable is really effective at increasing appetite. Although not natural now, I trained natural for 8 years + and cyano was one of the only things that I can say I really "felt" when I took it. .as in I "felt" like eating the whole fridge.. ..
Regarding the original question I was totally opposed to AAS back then and would bash anyone using them haha. .but I still considered b-12 inj a natty supp.

The sub-lingual tablet of methylcobalamine is a fairly good alernative to injecting if you dont like needles
