Vitamin B12 plays a subtle yet important role in regulating your sleep-wake cycle. Here’s how a vitamin B12 shot might improve your sleep quality:
- Melatonin Production Support: B12 is involved in the production of melatonin, your body’s natural sleep hormone. Ensuring sufficient B12 levels supports healthy melatonin synthesis.
- Circadian Rhythm Regulation: Some evidence suggests that B12 deficiency can disrupt your circadian rhythm, making it harder to fall asleep and stay asleep. B12 injections may help restore regular sleep patterns.
- Anxiety Reduction: If your sleeplessness is related to anxiety, the mood-boosting effects of B12 might have a positive indirect impact on your sleep.
Important to Note: If you have a diagnosed sleep disorder, getting a B12 injection is unlikely to be a standalone solution. However, it could be beneficial if a deficiency contributes to your sleep problems.
