IV Nutrition Therapy

Vitamin IV therapy, also known as intravenous micronutrient therapy, delivers high doses of vitamins and minerals directly into the bloodstream. This allows for rapid absorption at higher levels compared to oral intake. Over the past few decades, vitamin IV therapy has been promoted for various health benefits, including:

  • Reducing fatigue

  • Supporting recovery from fibromyalgia

  • Managing diabetes and asthma

  • Alleviating depression, anxiety, and migraines

  • Addressing hangovers, dehydration, and withdrawal symptoms

  • Improving cardiovascular health

The Myers' Cocktail, the most well-known vitamin IV blend, was developed by Dr. John Myers in the 1970s. It typically includes magnesium, calcium, B vitamins, and vitamin C, providing a balanced mix of nutrients.

Potential Benefits of Vitamin IV Therapy

Vitamin IV therapy may offer several advantages:

  1. Hydration: Fluids in IV therapy can alleviate dehydration, a common factor in feeling unwell.

  2. Enhanced Nutrient Absorption: For those with digestive issues that hinder nutrient absorption, IV therapy provides a direct route for essential vitamins and minerals.

  3. Support for Chronic Conditions: Anecdotal evidence and some studies suggest benefits for patients with chronic fatigue, asthma, or chemotherapy side effects.

Risks and Side Effects

While many report positive results, vitamin IV therapy carries risks:

  • Vitamin Toxicity: Overloading the bloodstream with vitamins can strain the kidneys and potentially lead to toxicity.

  • Kidney Stones: High doses of vitamin C may increase oxalate production, heightening the risk of kidney stones.

  • Electrolyte Imbalances: Frequent IV treatments may disrupt potassium or magnesium levels, leading to heart rhythm issues or overhydration.

  • Allergic Reactions: Rarely, components like thiamin can trigger severe reactions, including anaphylaxis.

  • Cost Considerations: Treatments can be expensive, and insurance often does not cover them.

Patients with kidney or heart conditions should approach IV therapy with caution, as it may exacerbate existing issues.

Cost of IV Vitamin Therapy

Costs vary widely based on the provider and nutrient mix, often ranging from $100 to $500 per session. While it can be beneficial for those with specific medical needs, a balanced diet and oral supplements may provide a more cost-effective alternative for general wellness.

Conclusion

Vitamin IV therapy offers promising benefits for hydration, nutrient absorption, and symptom relief for certain conditions. However, potential risks and costs warrant careful consideration.

What Is IV Nutrition Therapy?

HIGH DOSE VITAMIN C

High dose vitamin C has great potential to fight cancer and it is accessible and safe. At low concentrations Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) functions primarily as an antioxidant that protects cells from oxidative stress. At higher concentrations, ascorbic acid acts a pro-oxidant that imposes oxidative stress and induces cell death of cancer cells. In order to achieve the high concentrations required to kill cancer cells, Ascorbic acid has to be given intravenously. There are multiple reports and studies indicating the anticancer potential of vitamin C in humans.

​Did you know that over 40% of cancer patients actually die from malnutrition, not from cancer. A well-nourished cancer patient can protect healthy cells against the toxic effects of chemo and radiation and can better manage and beat the disease. In addition to High dose Vit C infusions we recommend periodic nutrient infusions too.

WAYS TO IMPROVE YOUR SUCCESS WITH HIGH DOSE VITAMIN C THERAPY

Prior to high dose Vitamin C infusion, increase blood oxygen to support the conversion of ascorbic acid to DHA, an oxidized form of Vitamin C that can enter tumor cells. We recommend IV ozone to increase blood oxygen levels​

Avoid sugar

Avoid caffeine

Avoid antioxidants

Consider EDTA chelation to chelate iron prior to IVC.

​In general, high dose vitamin C infusions are administered two to three times per week. A G6PD blood test is required prior to starting treatments.

Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide

Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD+) is a coenzyme present in all living cells, essential for energy production, DNA repair, and cellular regulation. It plays a crucial role in metabolism, particularly in transforming nutrients into energy and sustaining mitochondrial function—the cell's energy center. With aging, NAD+ levels decrease, a phenomenon associated with the aging process and numerous age-related diseases.

NAD+ IV therapy has gained popularity for its potential benefits, which include:

Boosting energy levels and reducing fatigue

Enhancing brain function and mental clarity

Supporting anti-aging processes by promoting DNA repair

Improving athletic performance and recovery

Assisting in addiction recovery by reducing cravings and withdrawal symptoms

Glutathione

Glutathione, a potent antioxidant produced naturally in the body, is crucial for overall cellular health, detoxification, and protection against oxidative stress. It is instrumental in neutralizing free radicals, bolstering the immune system, and replenishing other antioxidants, including vitamins C and E. Additionally, glutathione aids in liver detoxification and is essential for skin health, contributing to the reduction of hyperpigmentation and fostering a more radiant and uniform skin tone.

With aging or exposure to stressors such as pollution, poor nutrition, and disease, glutathione levels often decrease, potentially resulting in heightened oxidative stress, inflammation, and a diminished immune response. Glutathione IV therapy has gained popularity due to its rapid restoration of antioxidant levels, offering numerous health advantages, such as:

Enhancing the body’s natural detoxification processes

Supporting liver function and reducing inflammation

Improving skin health and reducing hyperpigmentation

Boosting the immune system

Protecting against the effects of aging and chronic diseases
