IV Nutritional Therapy

What is IV Nutritional Therapy?

The “IV” in IV Nutritional Therapy stands for “intravenous,” and as the name implies, it is a safe and effective procedure where a special “cocktail” of vitamins and nutrients are delivered directly into your bloodstream.

IV Nutrition Therapy bypasses the stomach and the digestive system entirely, so there are none of the issues of non-absorption of nutrients, or gastric distress that can be associated with the oral supplementation of vitamins and minerals.

“Eat your vegetables!” You all have heard your moms say it until they were “green” in the face! As it turns out your mom was right. There have been countless scientific studies that have shown the powerful anti-aging and disease fighting properties of the vitamins, nutrients, and anti-oxidants found in vegetables.

It is also a well-known fact, when it comes to diet and nutrition, we do not always have the time to follow our mom’s or our doctor’s best advice. Many of you who know you may not be eating right, turn to vitamins and nutritional supplements to make up for the difference. That is a good decision, and certainly could help to improve or maintain your health.

But did you know that many vitamins and minerals cannot be digested properly when taken orally?

Which means, all the good you think you are doing by taking oral supplements, may not be giving you the desired effects. Also, many people are particularly sensitive to oral supplements, and although they realize the benefits, refuse to take them, because of the gastric distress, and stomach upset they can cause.

Why is IV Nutritional Therapy So Effective?

Besides the fact that nutrients are more readily, and easily absorbed using IV nutrition, it is better than oral supplementation, because you could never comfortably achieve the same level of concentration of nutrients in the cells where they are needed most, in liquid or pill form.
