Is An Injection Of Neurobion Advisable Before A Race?

default
Posted on Tue, 16 May 2017
Question: Hello, I was recommended to get one inyection of neurobion 25000 2 days before the race so that I can overcome a 6 day /8 hour day race. Should I take tablets instead? Same result? How many days before the race should I start? Race start in 5 days. I read that one shot makes no sense since the body will eliminate the extra vitamins daily

Brief Answer:
No need to take it.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Usually people take 1 gm injection neurobion one hour before race, but as modern science and research disapprove it.

So I don't advise such injections to any athlete as this is not going to help because extra vitamins always get excreted or cause toxicity to our body.

Perfect practice and diet including carbohydrates makes perfect athletes.

Race is won first in brain then on ground.

I hope you got the point.

Thanks,
