IV Nutritional Therapy
Myers’ Cocktail
Comprised of essential multivitamins (Magnesium, B-Complex, Hydroxo B12, Calcium Gluconate and Vitamin C), this IV Infusion cocktail is designed to help alleviate chronic symptoms, including ongoing pain, asthma and more. The combination is named for Dr. John Myers, who was known for administering vitamin and mineral drips to alleviate a variety of ailments.
Studies have found the Myers' cocktail may be benefit patients who:
- Suffer from low energy
- Perform athletic exercises
- Suffer from chronic fatigue
- Require intravenous hydration
- Seek relief from hangover or withdrawal symptoms
- Suffer from depression or anxiety
According to Myers' cocktail studies and reviews, since the cocktails are made of vitamins and minerals, they tend to be well tolerated by many patients. Since treatment is administered intravenously vs. passing the digestive system, higher concentrations of the vitamins are more easily absorbed and thus bioavailable to the body.
At our facility all IV infusions are administered by experienced registered IV nurse and under direct supervision of medical doctor.
Vitamin B12
Methylcobalamin (B12) is a water-soluble vitamin that helps support adrenal function and maintain a healthy nervous system and is necessary for key metabolic processes. It stimulates serotonin production, contributes to red blood cell formation, supports immune function, and maintains a positive mood. The number one symptom for Vitamin B12 deficiency is feeling tired and lethargic. This vitamin plays an important role in carbohydrate digestion and energy production. We use Methylcobalamin which is a coenzyme form of Vitamin B12 which is biologically active. This means that your body can use it as is, and does not require any metabolic steps to make it body friendly, making it the best form of B12. There are a number of reasons why a person may have Vitamin B12 deficiency. Because of changing diets, and highly processed food, there has been a significant increase in Vitamin B12 deficiency. Some people lack the proper intrinsic factor to properly digest this molecule. Many times this will show up at a young age but may occur as you age, however many times it is not diagnosed properly. Vegans also may be deficient because their diet does not allow them to eat sources of food derived from animals. Unfortunately, Vitamin B12 is only found in animal sources. Taking B12 will ensure that there are no issues.
Tri Immune Boost
Tri-Immune Boost is a power-packed immunity blend of Glutathione, Ascorbic Acid and Zinc that is the ultimate immune system enhancer. This high concentration blend of immune system boosting essentials helps maintain a healthy immune response.
Glutathione has many benefits. It is often referred to as the “Master Anti-Oxidant” for its ability to stop, and even reverse, the damage caused by free radicals. Glutathione breaks down oxidized fats and free radicals in the body, thus strengthening the body’s immune system and scavenging free radicals. The combination of Vitamin C and Zinc has been well known for boosting the immune system to reduce the likelihood of becoming sick and also shortening the duration of illness. Vitamin C and Zinc are best taken together as they absorbed more efficiently this way.
