IV Therapy

What is IV nutrient therapy?

IV nutrient therapy delivers therapeutic doses of vitamins, minerals, amino acids and antioxidants directly into the bloodstream.

Why is it used?

IV nutrient therapy is used when higher concentrations of nutrients than the gut can absorb are desired for certain health outcomes.

On average, we can only absorb approximately 30% of nutrients consumed orally. IV nutrient therapy bypasses the gut, providing 100% absorption of nutrients at doses that are high, safe and efficacious.

What are the benefits?

Because IV nutrients reach higher concentrations in the blood than oral consumption or supplementation, cellular uptake of these nutrients is rapid and efficient – readily stimulating cells to achieve optimal health.

The results can include:

  • Improved energy
  • Strengthened immune system
  • Balanced mood
  • Mental clarity
  • Restful sleep
  • Efficient metabolism
  • Optimal hydration
  • Healthy skin
  • Enhanced detoxification
  • Healing of wounds and injuries
  • Reduced pain
  • Disease prevention

What nutrients are commonly given?

Vitamins – C, B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B7 (biotin) B9 (folic acid), B12

Minerals – magnesium, calcium, selenium, zinc, chromium, copper, manganese

Amino acids – arginine, carnitine, taurine, proline, glycine, lysine, tryptophan
