Vitamins and minerals are variably absorbed from the GI tract. The amount of absorption is dependent on gut health, food quality and underlying vitamin and mineral deficiencies. IV therapy is essential to restoring normal balance due to the increased absorption that is 10x greater than can be consumed orally. Hydration is essential to life. Due to schedules and diets many individuals are deficient in hydration, which effects blood pressure, energy and overall sense of wellbeing. The delivery of IV (intravenous) fluids rapidly and effectively restores hydration and blood volume. Vitamin C infusions are excellent for improving immune function against viral infections. Alpha Lipoic Acid increases energy, improves neuropathic pain and help manage blood sugar. Glutathione improves energy and protects against cellular damage from free radicals.
Infusion therapy is safe for nearly every person. With a few exceptions like congestive heart failure or kidney failure, infusions can be helpful for a variety of conditions.
Some of the conditions that may benefit from vitamin therapy are: Migraines, Allergies, Digestive problems, Immune System Support, Chronic Fatigue, Viral Illnesses, Asthma, and Poor Wound Healing. If you are looking to boost energy, mental alertness, weight loss, or sports performance then vitamin therapy may be what you have been desperately searching for. Each drip pack or injection contains saline solution and specific vitamins and minerals to target a particular health ailment or beauty concern.
There are several benefits to IV therapy, including increased energy, cellular protection from stress, enhanced immune system to fight off viral infections, improved metabolism for energy and weight loss, healthier skin and protection against aging, immune dysfunction and even cancer.
Vitamins and minerals are imperative for good overall health. Vitamin IVs or injections ensure your body receives 100% absorption (versus a mere 20% absorption of vitamins taken orally) resulting in the maximum benefits. Vitamin therapy via IV or injection is not necessarily a new concept. Patrons line up every day in Japan at vitamin cafés and celebrities have been using vitamin therapy for years to improve energy, increase performance and even for anti-aging. Now, you too can benefit from such therapies and be a much healthier, happier you!
