Why IV Infusions Stand Out from the Pack
If you are online searching for tips for health and wellness, you’ll see countless listings of supplements, fad diets, and trendy workouts. But what if there was a way to bypass the guesswork and deliver essential nutrients directly to your cells?
Introducing IV fluid therapy, a revolutionary approach to wellness that’s taking Houston and the world by storm. At Integrated Mobile Health (IMH), we’re looking at the science behind this powerful treatment to reveal why it’s making such an impact on the health and wellness scene.
Read on in this blog covering two major reasons IV is one of the most effective strategies for your wellness supplementation.
IV Gives Fast Delivery of Nutrients
One of the key reasons IV infusions are so effective is also one of the main reasons it’s used heavily in the hospital setting, it’s fast. When a patient needs liquids, antibiotics, or pain management medicine, you’re sure to see a physician’s order to receive these crucial treatments intravenously.
This is because when you receive an IV infusion, the agents in the IV bag (be it medicine, saline, vitamins, or supplements), are delivered directly into your bloodstream! By bypassing the digestive system entirely, your body can access and utilize these nutrients much more quickly than if you were to take them orally.
This same principle of speed and efficiency of IV use for treatment in hospital settings since its discovery also applies to many everyday people looking to boost their wellness. IV infusions can give a quick turnaround on symptom relief for individuals feeling:
- Run down or depressed
- Sick or hungover
- Achy or inflamed
- Dehydrated or overworked
- Stressed and irritable
These are symptoms that many people deal with regularly. But that doesn’t mean they should just be ignored until more serious issues arise. Let the proactive health and wellness approach be your guide by investing in quick relief through IV therapy supplementation.
IV Allows for Higher Bioavailability
Another reason IV infusions are so effective is that they allow for higher bioavailability and higher therapeutic dosages of nutrients compared to oral options like food and supplements. This is because when you take nutrients orally, they must first pass through the digestive system, where they are broken down and lose a lot before finally making it into your bloodstream.
Additionally, the dosage of nutrients that can be taken orally is limited by factors such as gastrointestinal tolerance and the body’s ability to absorb them, which can vary among individuals. With IV therapy, however, nutrients can be delivered in much higher doses without the limitations of oral supplementation.
As evidenced by Vitamin C
For example, IV vitamin C can achieve blood concentrations of up to 80 milligrams per deciliter, compared to a maximum of 9.3 milligrams per deciliter with oral supplements. Why is this important? Vitamin C has been shown to have vastly different effects based on its bioavailability. It’s been shown to have antiviral, anti-allergy, and possibly even anti-cancer properties! However, these properties can only be achieved at the high doses that IV infusions allow.
As evidenced by Magnesium
Similarly, IV-infused magnesium can quickly and effectively raise blood magnesium levels by double or even triple for a short time. Compared to the oral route which has minimal effect. Why is this increased supplementation significant?
In the hospital setting, it’s used regularly to treat patients with asthma, migraines, or cardiac conditions. Additionally, magnesium plays a crucial role in over 300 biochemical reactions in the body and is essential for nervous system function, muscle relaxation, and energy production.
When given in therapeutic doses, we can achieve powerful effects on the body and in a short time span unheard of taking oral supplements.
