5 reasons to try IV vitamin therapy
For decades, Americans have been accustomed to ingesting vitamins orally in the form of pills. However, oral consumption comes with a drawback: some of what you swallow never makes it into the bloodstream, because the digestive process gets there first. An IV bypasses that step. IV Vitamin Treatments such as Instadrips, enable the direct entry of vitamin mixtures into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system.The trend of IV Vitamin Therapies is making waves in the world of celebrities, with figures like Chrissy Teigen, Kendall Jenner, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Adele speaking publicly about using it.
IV vitamin therapy began with a blend of vitamins C and B, calcium, and magnesium, administered via IV by Dr. John Myers, a Baltimore physician. Today it extends beyond the Myers Cocktail to a range of drips, each with its own formula.
IV Vitamin Therapy is favored for several reasons, including:
Hangover Recovery: The Hangover IV is a 45-minute drip with B vitamins, folic acid, and calcium in a full liter of fluids, plus anti-nausea, anti-inflammatory, and antacid medication. People book it for the headache and nausea after a night of drinking.
Training and Events: Some athletes book a drip before or after an event. The Myers Cocktail includes B vitamins, vitamin C, magnesium, and glutathione.
**Skin, Hair and Nails: **Antioxidant-rich vitamin blends, delivered directly. Vitamin C is a required cofactor for collagen synthesis, and biotin has a recognised role in hair and nail health.
**Vitamin C and Zinc: **Two nutrients immune cells draw on, delivered directly. Vitamin C supports white blood cell function, while B12 has a role in cellular repair and in blood and nervous system function. Customizable to include additional zinc.
**A Note on Weight Loss: **IV vitamin therapy is not a weight loss treatment, and Instadrip’s drips do not contain carnitine or alpha-lipoic acid.
