What is an IV vitamin infusion?
An intravenous (IV) vitamin infusion delivers vitamins, minerals, other nutrients, or other substances like antioxidants, herbs, and amino acids directly into your bloodstream through a thin catheter in your arm vein.
IV vitamin infusions often combine several ingredients that work well together, such as an infusion containing vitamins B and C along with calcium and magnesium.
What are the different types of IV vitamin infusions?
IV vitamin infusions vary because they’re always customized for you. Some of the main reasons people have IV vitamin infusions today are:
- Energy boost
- Jet lag recovery
- Hangover relief
- Migraines and other headaches
- Flu and cold recovery
- Anti-aging (skin glow and hair and nail growth)
- Weight loss (fat burning and faster metabolism)
- Increased athletic performance
- Faster athletic recovery
- Immune system boost
- Detoxification
- Dehydration
- Mood-lightening (depression, anxiety, and stress)
Some specialists believe that IV vitamin infusions may address serious diseases like asthma, fibromyalgia, Parkinson’s disease, and heart disease.
IV vitamin infusions can fit well in a functional medicine treatment plan. Functional medicine looks for the root biological causes of poor health and disease, something that IV vitamin infusions can effectively address.
For example, IV vitamin infusions supply your cells with restorative and regenerative nutrients. Disease starts at a cellular level, so IV vitamin infusions can improve your cell health and function to help you fight and overcome illness.
Why are IV vitamin infusions better than oral supplements?
Oral supplements can actually be quite effective, but they don’t compare to IV infusions. With vitamins C and D, you absorb about 40-60% of the vitamins when you take them as pills or capsules.
But, when you get those same vitamins intravenously, you enjoy far better absorption — 80-100% — because the vitamins don’t go through your digestive tract.
Another benefit of IV infusions is that you can get a much larger dose (and many more benefits) through IV than you can by taking the ingredients orally.
Plus, IV vitamin therapy has instant effects, so if you’re feeling run-down, you could feel re-energized in an hour or less.
When the Apex Integrative Medicine, PLLC, office opens, IV vitamin infusions will be available on-site. In addition, the practice will offer bioidentical hormone therapy pellets, and aesthetics services like Botox® and dermal fillers in the office.
