Increase Your Immune System and Improve Your Overall Health
IV therapy is a type of integrative treatment that relies on delivering nutrients and vitamins directly to the patient's bloodstream. Medically supervised IV therapy treatments can provide immune support, help treat the symptoms of many chronic medical conditions, and improve overall health and wellness.
Benefits of IV Therapy
Unlike oral supplements, an IV treatment gets nutrients directly into the bloodstream to achieve maximum benefits. Here are a few of the many benefits that IV therapy can have on your body.
Boost Imune System
IV treatments can help to boost your body's ability to fight off illness.
Alleviate Pain
IV infusions can better deliver nutrients that help to alleviate chronic pain.
Reduce Migrains
Rehydration and nutrient absorption can help prevent and reduce migraines.
Most nutrients pass into the body through the digestive system as food or oral supplements. While balanced nutrition is essential to good health, it may not be enough to provide the therapeutic effects that medical professionals would like to achieve. An IV treatment gets nutrients directly into the bloodstream to achieve the maximum benefits.
Patients may find it difficult to consume certain minerals and vitamin groups in sufficient quantities in their diets, and poor absorption may hinder nutrients from entering the body through the digestive tract. In fact, over 90% of the adult U.S. population suffers some type of mineral or vitamin deficiency, according to the Dietary Reference Intakes (DRIs).
Providing nutrients through IV drips directly gets the nutrients into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system. This gives the body an immediate nutrient boost and ensures absorption. Vitamin infusions work on the same principle, but unlike injections, mobile IV therapy in Orange County allows the provider to administer a perfectly controlled flow of multiple nutrients and IV fluids.
Many patients report that IV treatments help:
- Supply an immune boost for those with conditions like fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome
- Alleviate chronic pain
- Reduce the frequency and severity of migraines
- Ease muscle spasms
- Relieve hangover symptoms (also known as "hangover IV")
- Improve athletic performance
- Boost mental clarity
IV infusions can also serve as hydration therapy. Medical staff in hospitals in Orange County often use IV hydration for emergency care patients who have critical dehydration.
While elective IV hydration therapy rarely targets patients that suffer from severe dehydration, the gentle effect of IV hydration, together with essential vitamins and powerful antioxidants, can enhance overall wellness. If a patient suffers from mild dehydration, IV hydration can improve health and provide a dramatic energy boost.
Vitamin C Therapy
Vitamin C is an essential nutrient and powerful antioxidant. This vitamin is present in many foods and over-the-counter supplements. While few people in Orange County suffer from serious Vitamin C deficiency with severe symptoms like scurvy, a significant portion of the population lacks adequate Vitamin C.
Multiple studies display the benefits of high Vitamin C intake for a wide range of medical conditions, from common colds to heart conditions, diabetes, and cancer. Clinical trials have shown that high doses of Vitamin C may extend the life of cancer patients.
Vitamin IV treatments are perfect for providing a quick, high-dose Vitamin C boost. Under the right conditions, Vitamin C treatment may:
Chelation (EDTA) Therapy
Chelation treatment involves injecting a chelator, usually EDTA (ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid), into the patient's bloodstream to bind and remove heavy metals like mercury and lead. Apart from metal poisoning, chelation treatment may also help with conditions like heart disease, diabetes, autism, Alzheimer's disease, and more.
Another benefit of EDTA therapy is that it can aid those who suffer from memory loss or "foggy brain."
It is important to note that, although chelation can confer immense advantages for heart disease and diabetes patients, this type of treatment involves powerful agents that may lead to side effects with improper administration. Choosing professional and trustworthy medically supervised IV treatment services in Orange County, such as OC Functional Medical Center in San Clemente, will help avoid any adverse effects.
Glutathione Injections
Glutathione is an amino acid compound containing the amino acids cysteine, glycine, and glutamic acid. Glutathione contributes to many physiological processes and acts as an antioxidant and detoxification agent.
Although our livers naturally produce glutathione, our supply of glutathione decreases as we get older. Low glutathione levels carry an association with many common diseases, including diabetes and cancer.
Oral glutathione supplements are ineffective because the digestive system fluids break the compound down into individual amino acids. Therefore, the best way to receive a glutathione push is by injection or IV.
Higher levels of glutathione may:
Iron Infusion
Iron infusion is a quick and highly effective way to increase iron levels in the body. This type of treatment is beneficial if the patient has severe anemia.
Often, an iron supplement will be enough to treat iron deficiency anemia. However, some patients cannot take an oral supplement or have problems with iron absorption. In these cases, an iron infusion can help increase iron levels and avoid medical complications.
An iron infusion can also help patients with low iron levels who are preparing for major surgery and need to boost iron levels to compensate for expected blood loss.
Myers Cocktail
Myers Cocktail is a type of IV treatment that combines several vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants in a single IV bag. Many patients have reported that Myers Cocktail helps relieve muscle spasms, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, and other conditions.
Besides the standard saline solution, a Myers Cocktail usually contains:
Depending on the patient's needs, our IV clinic staff may also add other ingredients to the Myers Cocktail.
NAD IV Drip Therapy
NAD IV drip therapy uses an intravenous injection of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) to stimulate cell regeneration. NAD is an important and diverse coenzyme that promotes essential physiological processes, promotes optimal brain function, and may facilitate addiction recovery.
NAD drip therapy may:
It is vital to note that, while NAD may support addiction recovery, it cannot replace a regulated recovery program or targeted medications.
