Guest guest Posted January 22, 2010 Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 Very good observation, . I think this is exactly the case with the B12 shots.

Some children don't yet have a lot of fatty tissue which can also present some challenges for muscle vs fat. MB12 is also water soluable and the body disposes of any excess that is not needed.

Guest guest Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 that is the natural color. You get red pee if you are not injecting shallow enough. Make sure you are angling the injection in so you are going subcutaneously. That will take care of the problem.
