IV nutrition is a popular treatment that uses intravenous (IV) therapy to provide nutrients directly into the bloodstream. The process involves inserting a needle or catheter into your vein, allowing for quicker fluid, vitamins, minerals, and medication delivery. We strive to increase all our patients’ quality of life with IV nutrition. Here are the leading advantages of receiving IV nutrition therapy.
In many cases, we will use a vitamin B cocktail of choice for beauty purposes. This includes:
Each B vitamin is essential in catering toward a component that makes up to help a patient look and feel their best, such as energy, the digestive system, protein metabolism, and slowing down fat build-up. By boosting one’s vitamin B levels with the concentrated cocktail, it can also help reduce the appearance of wrinkles, hydrate the skin, and promote circulation; all of which are factors in progressive aging.
IV nutrition is the perfect complement to a healthy weight loss program. The cocktail we produce can be customized to the patient’s weight loss plan and goals. The blend can be a mix of vitamins, fluids, and fat-burning compounds that can help the body burn fat naturally at a higher rate than usual.
It is worth noting that a vitamin drip on its own will not be enough to help one lose weight; it will certainly speed up the process and help one feel more energized even if they are on a low-calorie diet. If a patient is seeking a boost to their weight loss plan, we will assess their needs and personalize their drip bags with adequate amounts of key supplements. These supplements can include carnitine, alpha-lipoic acid, A vitamins, and B vitamins. During the assessment of the patient, medical records, and weight loss plan, the medical professional can look at other areas that need improvements, such as blood pressure, bone density, diabetes, and even hydration levels.
Dehydration can have various causes, including hangovers, vomiting, diarrhea, physical exertion, and more. Due to the many causes, IV nutrition is a popular treatment option in a hospital setting for patients experiencing dehydration. This type of IV nutrition is formally known as IV fluid nutrition therapy. IV fluid nutrition is a fast, efficient, and effective means of treating dehydration because the concentrated cocktail (vitamins, minerals, electrolytes, amino acids, and glucose) bypasses the digestive system, allowing quicker absorption into the bloodstream.
This form of IV nutrition therapy helps patients rehydrate much faster than if they drink non-electrolyte-containing fluids such as water, soup, broth, or sports drinks. The key to IV nutrition is quickly getting enough carbohydrates and electrolytes without causing a negative insulin response.
Detoxification is not just a fad but an essential way to keep the body running smoothly. As the body ages, the digestive system, which processes foreign substances, becomes less efficient. Unfortunately, the body is constantly bombarded with toxins in the environment, medications, and within itself. IV nutrition offers a multitude of potent cocktails with the very premise of detoxification in mind while helping the patient maintain healthy blood pressure, heart rate, and metabolism.
Not only can IV nutrition help prevent medical conditions such as the common cold and flu, but it can treat various symptoms of other ailments by boosting the patient’s immune system. Common ailments patients seek relief for include:
While many find relief in their physical conditions after undergoing IV nutrition, some need relief in their mental conditions. Stress, depression, mood swings, and anxiety can be attributed to vitamin deficiencies, along with other factors. However, after receiving IV nutrition therapy, patients can expect a noticeable boost in their mental health.
We use common cocktails to achieve this, using folic acid, D vitamins, C vitamins, B12, amino acids, and zinc. Depending on the goal of treatment and the ailment needing remedy, some patients will only need one dose (bag). In contrast, others may need two or multiple appointments, also known as drip sessions.
The benefits of IV nutrition are clear. It can drastically improve the quality of your life and offers no reasons for you not to give it a try. Though it ultimately depends on everyone’s individual goal, everyone is considered an ideal candidate. We invite you to schedule your first drip session or request more information by calling our Fresno office at Optimal Medical Group.
