Vitamin IV Drips – Q&A

Vitamin IV Drips – Q&A

Introduction: Why Diabetes Needs a New Approach

Diabetes is no longer just a numbers game. At Patients Medical, we believe true healing begins at the cellular level. That’s where Vitamin IV Drips come in.

For patients struggling with diabetes, fatigue, poor immunity, and metabolic sluggishness, nutrient infusions offer rapid, targeted support. These powerful drips bypass digestion, delivering essential vitamins, antioxidants, and minerals directly into your bloodstream—for enhanced energy, faster recovery, and optimal cellular function.

What Are Vitamin IV Drips?

Vitamin IV Drips are intravenous (IV) infusions that deliver high-potency nutrients directly into your circulatory system. Unlike oral supplements that must pass through digestion, IV drips offer immediate bioavailability—ensuring that your body gets what it needs now.

Our customized IV blends often include:

  • Vitamin C – Boosts immunity and supports insulin sensitivity
  • Magnesium – Relieves stress and supports blood sugar regulation
  • B Vitamins – Crucial for energy, mood, and glucose metabolism
  • Glutathione – The body’s master antioxidant and detoxifier
  • Alpha-Lipoic Acid (ALA) – Improves insulin sensitivity and nerve health
  • Taurine, Zinc, Selenium, CoQ10, and more
Why Are IV Drips Effective for People with Diabetes

Why Are IV Drips Effective for People with Diabetes?

Diabetes often leads to nutrient depletion, oxidative stress, and mitochondrial dysfunction. Our IV therapy helps address these imbalances with:

  •  Antioxidant support to combat cellular damage
  • Nutrients that improve glucose metabolism and energy production
  • Support for neuropathy, inflammation, and insulin resistance
  • Detox support for liver and cellular health

Root Causes from an Energetic Perspective

In Pranic Healing, disease can arise from stagnant, depleted, or congested energy in the aura or chakras. Root causes may include:

  • Unprocessed emotions or trauma stored in energy centers
  • Energetic cords from unhealthy relationships
  • Negative thought forms and chronic mental stress
  • Environmental energies from toxic work/home environments
  • Sleep disruption weakening the energy body
  • Energetic leaks from overwork, caregiving, or poor boundaries

By clearing these blockages, vital life force can return—and healing begins.

Diagnostic Evaluation We Use

While Pranic Healing itself does not rely on labs, at Patients Medical we combine it with functional diagnostics to track your overall healing:

Cortisol, thyroid, and adrenal hormone testing

Inflammatory markers (CRP, cytokines)

Gut health and microbiome testing

Mitochondrial and energy production markers

Emotional health screening

HRV (heart rate variability) and nervous system response

Energy scan by certified Pranic Healers

This dual approach—energy and evidence—makes your treatment powerful and grounded.

Integrative Lab Testing Before IV Therapy

We run comprehensive diagnostics to ensure IV therapy meets your body’s true needs:

  • Hemoglobin A1C and fasting insulin
  • Micronutrient testing
  • Inflammatory markers (CRP, homocysteine)
  • Oxidative stress panels
  • Mitochondrial function
  • Gut microbiome health
  • Hormone panels and adrenal stress index

A Real Case Study: Steve’s IV-Fueled Turnaround

Steve, age 60, came to us with fatigue, prediabetes (A1C 6.1), and early signs of neuropathy. His labs showed low glutathione, B12 deficiency, and elevated CRP.

We prescribed:

  • Weekly IVs of B-complex, magnesium, and glutathione
  • Anti-inflammatory nutrition plan
  • Methylation support
  • Acupuncture and stress management

In 10 weeks, Steve’s A1C dropped to 5.7, energy levels soared, and his neuropathy symptoms improved dramatically.
