Intravenous Vitamin Therapy (IV)
What is Intravenous Vitamin Therapy (IV)?
Intravenous infusion of vitamins and trace elements is an innovative therapy that allows for the immediate and effective absorption of nutrients by the body.
IV Vitamin Therapy is no longer exclusive to international jet-set stars but is widely practiced in countries like the USA, Canada, Australia, and England.
Through the infusion of vitamins, IV Therapy aims to enhance both physical and mental functions, resulting in an improved quality of life!
What happens to the body during intravenous infusion?
Intravenous infusion allows nutrients to enter directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive process. Vitamins and minerals are delivered directly to the body’s cells without the loss of bioavailability that often occurs when vitamins are taken orally. This enables immediate and higher absorption of nutrients, which are then utilized by the cells for various metabolic functions, such as boosting the immune system and restoring energy.
What is the difference between intravenous infusions and oral vitamin intake?
When vitamins are taken orally, they are first broken down in the stomach and then absorbed in the gastrointestinal system. Absorption depends on factors such as age, metabolism, overall health, medication use, and diet, resulting in an absorption rate of 20-40%. In contrast, intravenous infusions can achieve an absorption rate of up to 90%, allowing cells to receive more nutrients.
What are the benefits of intravenous infusions?
Intravenous vitamin cocktails are widely used to strengthen the body: they increase energy levels, boost the immune system, aid in detoxification, improve hydration, and promote skin anti-aging.
Which vitamins are used?
There is no specific restriction on the vitamins that can be used in intravenous infusions, as formulas are tailored to each patient’s needs. Commonly used vitamins include water-soluble ones such as Vitamin C, the B-complex vitamins, magnesium, and calcium.
How long do the treatment and its effects last?
The initial effects of intravenous vitamin infusion typically appear within 12-24 hours. The vitamins and minerals remain in the body, maintaining their levels for approximately three weeks, providing continuous support to bodily functions during this period.
Intravenous infusion therapy should be performed exclusively by a qualified and certified physician.
