Though both compounds appear in metabolic peptide research, they belong to entirely separate biological categories, which is the main reason researchers compare them rather than treat them as substitutes for one another
Therefore, the debate between a B12 shot vs pill isn't a one-size-fits-all scenario
They are inexpensive, quick to administer, and widely marketed as fat-burning shots
