IV Nutrient Therapy is the delivery of vitamins, minerals, and amino acids directly into the bloodstream. The advantages of IV Nutrient Therapy include:
- IV Therapy can achieve serum concentrations that are not obtainable with oral dosing
- At these higher concentrations some nutrients exert different pharmacological effects (ie. Anti-viral and pro-oxidant effects of Vitamin C at high concentrations)
- IV Therapy is more effective than oral or intramuscular administrations for correcting intracellular nutrient deficits
- IV administration bypasses the GI tract so it is ideal for patients with compromised digestion and absorption, and is directly administered to the bloodstream, allowing for the highest level of nutrient absorptions (near or at 100%)
- IV therapy can be an effective route to adminster substances (ie. Glutathione) which are not absorbed orally
- IV Therapy can give faster and better results than oral treatments in many situations
