Vitamin B12 ineffective for CFS
We explored the effectiveness of high-dose vitamin B12 injections on chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) through two case reports that utilized N of 1 trials. This approach allowed us to make tailored treatment decisions based on individual responses to the therapy.
In one case, we found that high-dose vitamin B12 injections did not yield positive results, leaving the patient without significant relief from their symptoms. Conversely, in another case, we observed that nimodipine proved to be a very effective treatment for that patient’s chronic fatigue.
These findings suggest that while vitamin B12 may not be helpful for everyone suffering from CFS, other treatments like nimodipine can be beneficial. Thus, personalized treatment strategies are key in managing this complex and varied condition.

We investigated the use of vitamin B12 nasal drops in adults with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) over three months. A total of 51 patients participated, and we measured their vitamin B12 levels alongside physical activity and fatigue scores.
Remarkably, two-thirds of the participants experienced positive results, including increased activity and better overall scores on fatigue measures. While responders showed significant improvements, the non-responders had only minor increases in vitamin B12 levels.
This indicates that vitamin B12 nasal drops could be a beneficial alternative to injections for many CFS patients.

We evaluated the impact of B12 injections combined with folic acid on patients with chronic fatigue syndrome, also known as myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME). In our survey of 38 patients, we identified two groups based on their response: Good and Mild responders. Good responders received more frequent and higher doses of B12, leading to significant improvements in their symptoms.
However, Mild responders, many of whom took pain medications, reported minimal progress. Overall, while some patients showed benefits, the effectiveness of B12 treatment varies widely, and further research is needed to understand optimal dosages and drug interactions.

Fatigue improvement
196 people found this helpful
I find these vitamins effective. The vitamin B12 spray is convenient for children—no injections or pills needed. As I have low hemoglobin and do not eat meat, I thought these would benefit me. I experienced no allergies or gastrointestinal changes. My hair stopped falling out after a month, and the chronic fatigue syndrome vanished.

Better absorption

This liquid B12 is excellent. My child, with ASD, takes it sublingually in the morning, helping his vitamin B12 absorption. I ensure to check vitamin levels before taking supplements. Methylcobalamin is the most easily absorbed form. We've been using B vitamins for ten years; they greatly help with chronic fatigue syndrome and improve overall well-being.

Symptoms relieved

I was severely B12 deficient, leading to neurological issues that baffled my doctor. I researched and realised my symptoms related to B12 deficiency. After ordering the supplement, my symptoms improved in just two weeks. I'm not a vegetarian but have low meat intake. I continue taking high doses to recover from chronic fatigue syndrome.

We recently came across an intriguing study that highlighted the potential benefits of a combination therapy involving lofepramine, L-phenylalanine, and vitamin B12 for patients suffering from multiple sclerosis (MS). Conducted as a randomized, placebo-controlled double-blind trial, the research aimed to evaluate how this combination could help alleviate various symptoms associated with MS and chronic pain.
While this study did address the role of vitamin B12, it was examined alongside lofepramine and phenylalanine. This makes it challenging for us to pinpoint the specific impact of vitamin B12 in the context of chronic fatigue syndrome on its own. The treatment showed effectiveness in improving symptoms within just two to four weeks, but due to the combination of treatments, we need more focused studies to assess vitamin B12's distinct role.
Overall, it's exciting to see a potential link between this therapy and symptom relief, yet we must remain cautious about attributing the benefits solely to vitamin B12, given the blended approach of the therapy used in the trial.

Beta-glucan alleviates cognitive fatigue
We conducted a rigorous 36-week study with 65 patients diagnosed with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS). Participants were given either yeast-derived beta-glucan with vitamins or a placebo.
The results revealed that those taking beta-glucan showed notable improvements in cognitive fatigue compared to those on the placebo. This suggests that beta-glucan could be a promising nutritional supplement for easing cognitive symptoms associated with ME/CFS.
However, more research is needed to fully understand its benefits and mechanisms.

Potential benefits of yeast supplements
We explored the impact of "Nagipol," a supplement made from beer yeasts, on chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). Our clinical study indicated that "Nagipol" could improve the clinical status of CFS patients. It appears to help enhance cognitive functions and stabilize emotional symptoms while also normalizing certain blood parameters.
While these findings are promising, it’s important to note that further research is needed to fully confirm these benefits, especially regarding its role in diet therapy for individuals dealing with CFS.

My vitamin B12 levels have been borderline for years, leading to fatigue and irritability. I searched for an easy-to-use supplement and opted for this convenient spray. After two weeks, my fatigue began to diminish. I look forward to retesting my levels in a month, as I previously had slightly low results.

Fatigue alleviated
3 people found this helpful
This is an effective product! I monitor my ferritin levels yearly, as low ferritin causes chronic fatigue syndrome and other symptoms. Taking iron isn't enough; B12 and folic acid are vital too. I choose methylcobalamin, as it’s better absorbed. My concentration improved and chronic fatigue syndrome symptoms lessened significantly.
