Anti-Aging and Longevity Treatments Remember when you were in college and stayed up all night drinking beer, eating pizza, and partying; yet you still were able to attend class in the morning? How many of you could do that now?
An IV (intravenous) drip is a medical treatment in which fluids, medications, or other substances are delivered directly into a patient's bloodstream through a vein. This is usually done using a needle or catheter that is inserted into a vein and connected to a bag or bottle of fluid, which is then hung above the patient and allowed to flow into the bloodstream under gravity.
IV drips are commonly used in hospitals and other healthcare settings to hydrate patients, provide nutrients, or deliver medications and other treatments that cannot be taken orally. They can also be used to replace fluids lost due to dehydration or to regulate a patient's blood pressure or electrolyte levels.
It is important to note that IV drips can have potential side effects, such as infection at the insertion site, blood clots, or an adverse reaction to the substances being infused. Additionally, the use of IV drips should be closely monitored by a healthcare professional to ensure that the patient is receiving the proper dosage and to minimize the risk of any adverse effects.
Improved Hydration
Dehydration is corrected when the circulatory system gets rehydrated. IV therapy allows a greater percentage of H20 to be absorbed in the body. Hydrating yourself through IV therapy is much more direct and effective than chugging a bottle of water.
More Nutrients
Digesting 100% of vitamins is amazingly possible through IV therapy. They go straight to the bloodstream; nothing gets lost along the pathway. You are getting the full effects of the vitamins!
Open Pathways
One issue of health concern is that common health problems cause irreparable damage to the cells lining the intestinal pathway. This unfortunately reduces the vitamin integration that occurs in the intestines, and vitamin absorption levels are automatically decreased. IV therapy detours straight to the bloodstream so your vitamin uptake is drastically increased.
Nutrients are delivered directly into the bloodstream and the cells.
Only IV vitamin therapy can deliver the high concentrations required for clinical effectiveness.
IV therapy avoids side effects like upset stomach and diarrhea that may occur with high-dose oral vitamins.

IV Vitamin & Nutrient Infusions have been found to help with a variety of medical conditions such as those listed below:
* Alzheimer's dementia * Eczema
* Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis *Headaches
* Anxiety * Hypertension
* Asthma (acute & chronic) * Immune disorders
* Arthritis * Macular degeneration
* Autoimmune illness * Multiple sclerosis
* Cancer * Neuropathy
* Celiac disease * Parkinson's disease
* Chronic Fatigue Syndrome * Scleroderma
* Constipation * Shingles
* Dépression * Toxicité syndrome
* Diabetes mellites * Vitiligo
The process of IV therapy typically begins with a consultation with a medical professional. During this consultation, your doctor will discuss your medical history and any current health concerns. They will also assess your overall health and determine if IV therapy is the right choice for you.
The doctor will most probably order a blood and/or urine test to complete the evaluation. On receipt of these test results, the doctor will prepare a customized IV drip protocol for you to follow.
These custom recommendations are then sent to the IV department which will custom mix the IV drip based on your medical test results.
Then the IV therapy will begin. The process typically involves inserting a small needle into a vein in your arm. The needle is then connected to a bag of saline solution, which is slowly infused into your body. Depending on the type of IV therapy you are receiving, the process can take anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours.
Warning Note: There are several companies advertising fast low-cost home drip services, many with no physician review offering like “Fully Hydrated, Refreshed & Energized with A Perfect Blend Of Vitamins For Your Body.”
We advise you to be careful in using these services. These drips come pre-packed, and aren't FDA-approved, meaning there's no clinically validated study confirming that IV hydration therapy and/or IV vitamin therapy they offer with the combinations in the pre-package, will have any real benefit to you and may in fact cause you harm.
Vitamin drips need to be custom mixed by a nurse or medical technician based on a doctor’s prescription, and balanced properly based on your blood test results to ensure they work properly for you and you do not have any side effects.
Among medical concerns we have, people with kidney disease or heart disease shouldn't receive IV fluids unless prescribed by their doctor, individuals who are taking medication should be incredibly cautious about the possibility of serious drug interactions. Individuals with certain medical conditions, like heart disease, should not receive an IV vitamin treatment because it can put added strain on your heart. The IV home drip services may not address these among other issues.
Legal Warning: The FTC has taken legal action against an IV at home service, iV Bars, from making false or unsubstantiated claims about the benefits of its iV Cocktails.
In summary, unless your physician prescribes a specific mixture, you cannot know whether the fluid going directly into your bloodstream is safe.
IV treatments should always be administered by a medical doctor in a medical setting. In an at home internet marketed service, the person administering vitamin IV may not have a detailed understanding of your medical history, so they won't know how your body will respond to the treatment.
We strongly discourage patients from using these internet home drip services for the reasons discussed above.
