IV nutrition is an exciting wellness tool that is becoming more popular as more people experience it.
When your body is stressed, as can happen for so many reasons, nutrient absorption can be impaired while the body is consuming more nutrients. IV nutrient therapy has 100% bioavailability, meaning all of the measured doses make it into your bloodstream where they can bathe the cells that use them.
All infusions will be customized based on your needs. This list is a guide for IV’s based on functional use.
75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated. The highly publicized survey found that Americans drank about eight servings of hydrating beverages per day, this is offset by drinking caffeinated beverages and alcohol and eating a diet high in sodium. Being dehydrated causes fatigue, irritabilty, and memory problems.Balanced Electrolyte Solution. When you are dehydrated, it can affect:
75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated.

Being dehydrated causes fatigue, irritabilty, and memory problems. Based on the Myer’s cocktail, a mix of vitamins essential to energy metabolism, plus vitamin C and hydration
Vitamin C – Multiple large studies have shown that IV vitamin C reduces fatigue compared to placebo. Vitamin C is needed to produce carnitine, which in turn burns fat for energy
Vitamin B5 synthesizes the coenzyme that kicks off the energy production cycle
Vitamin B6 is vital for producing hemoglobin, which carries oxygen in your blood
Vitamin B12 is crucial for producing red blood cells, which carry hemoglobin
B complex vitamins all work together to support energy metabolism
Crystaloid IV fluid solution – Rehydration solution with electrolyte concentration balanced for human cells.
Recharge your system. Hydrate. While alcohol can be a lot of fun, it is not good for nutrition. Drinking alcohol interferes with the absorption of many vitamins and minerals. High alcohol intake damages the cells of the intestines, decreasing the stomach’s ability to absorb nutrients. When the liver must metabolize alcohol, it uses up stores of essential vitamins, causing malnutrition. The diuretic (makes you pee) effects of alcohol deplete vitamins and minerals. Alcohol also decreases digestive enzymes necessary for food breakdown and nutrient absorption.

Magnesium: supports the chemical reactions that produce energy. Relaxes smooth muscles in blood vessels and internal organs.
Vitamin B1 (Thiamine) Plays an important role in energy metabolism, immunity boosting and functioning of nervous system.
Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin) – A powerful antioxidant and plays a vital role in maintaining healthy blood cells and boosts metabolism.
Vitamin B3 (Niacin) Plays a critical role in proper functioning of the nervous and digestive systems. It is necessary for energy production and metabolism of fatty acids. It also provides healthy skin, nails, and hair.
Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic Acid) Essential for healthy development of the central nervous system. It is involved in energy production and through different metabolic and anabolic cycles in development of amino acids, blood cells, vitamin D3 and other fatty acids.
Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine) Vitamin B6 has a very influential role in synthesis of neurotransmitters and is essential for good mental health. It also has a direct effect on immune function. It plays a role in metabolism of amino acids. Crucial for red blood cells that carry oxygen through the body.
Vitamin C – is a powerful antioxidant and when given IV is proven to reduce fatigue.
Toradol – non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medication that calms aches and pains
Zofran – central acting nausea medication, if needed
The best mixture of amino acids, vitamins and other natural substances to help increase metabolism and decrease fat stores in the body.
Lipotropic injections are used to help release fat deposits in some parts of the body. Some of these areas include the stomach, inner thighs, neck, buttocks and hips. Lipotropic, or fat burning, substances include methionine which helps the liver remove fat; inositol, similar to methionine; choline, which distributes cholesterol and prevents it from getting deposited in one part of the body. Injections can be administered up to twice a week. B12 is purported by its users and practitioners to help speed up the overall metabolic processes and create a greater feeling of overall energy. Because lipotropics directly aid fat breakdown and are closely related to B vitamins, when used together they are thought to intensify each other’s effects. The amino acids that are injected into the body stimulate the liver into optimizing the process of metabolism. These injections boost the metabolic power of the body.
Methionine: Methionine helps the liver maintain the optimal ability to process fatty acids. Although indirectly linked to lipolysis, it is believed that the increase in lean tissue increases resting metabolic rate.
Inositol: Inositol is a sugar-like molecule, referred to as a sugar alcohol. Even though similar in molecular structure to glucose, this molecule does not exhibit the traits that simple carbohydrates exhibit. It has been found to decrease fatty acid synthase activity, leading to less fatty acid in the body.
Choline: Choline is a simple molecule usually classified as a B vitamin. Choline is an important precursor to the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. This neurotransmitter is involved in a host of activities, one of which includes muscular function and contraction. Acetylcholine is a fundamental neurotransmitter that enables communication between neurons. Increased neural communication results in increased CNS activity which ultimately leads to increased energy expenditure. Energy expenditure requires nutrient input, either from stored energy (fat), or dietary nutrients. Choline exists in a delicate balance and homeostasis with methionine and folate. When these nutrients are not in balance adverse health effects may be present. Along with the increase in CNS activity comes increased cognitive ability, reported by many users. Choline may be effective as a nootropic, or a substance with ability to increase cognition. Increased neural cognition is thought to be due to choline’s role as a precursor to acetylcholine.
Choline supplementation may increase the utilization of carnitine and increase the removal of fatty acids, even though all fatty acids are not burned as energy. The fragments of fatty acids not burned as energy are extruded in the urine as molecular fragments.
Other compounds are included as an attempt to further potentiate these effects:
L-Carnitine – Carnitine acts in conjunction with choline to break up and remove fatty acids.
B-complex – Vitamins B1, B2, B3, B5, B6 support the energy metabolism process enhanced by the select amino acids.
Vitamin B12 – is essential for the body’s energy production processes. The body needs vitamin B12 to be able to use the proteins and fats in food. It is also important for converting carbohydrates into sugar so that they can provide energy
Taurine – Evidence suggests that Taurine may reduce triglycerides, prevent obesity, improving insulin resistance, regulate glucose metabolism, lower cholesterol, and reduce blood pressure.
Support your immune system during an illness or prior to planned travel or exposure with expertly selected vitamins, minerals and other antioxidants.
The immune system is amazing. The more you study it the more awe-inspiring it seems. So many specialized cells and levels work in symphony with each other to protect us from a universe of microscopic invaders. There are things you can do to support it, including getting proper sleep. There is also nutrient support and hydration:
Immune Boost contains:
Zinc: Zinc has been proven to help regulate the immune system. Zinc is an element that is not created in the body. Deficiency of zinc can lead to health issues.
Glutathione: Glutathione is a potent antioxidant that naturally occurs in the body. Glutathione aids the immune system and has been found to help in the prevention of cancer, cystic fibrosis, HIV, and the normal aging process.
Vitamin C: Vitamin C is an essential micronutrient. It is a potent antioxidant and a cofactor for a family of biosynthetic and gene regulatory enzymes. Vitamin C contributes to immune defense by supporting various cellular functions of both the innate and adaptive immune system. Vitamin C supports epithelial barrier function against pathogens and promotes the oxidant scavenging activity of the skin, thereby potentially protecting against environmental oxidative stress. Vitamin C accumulates in phagocytic cells that engulf invading pathogens and ultimately microbial killing. It has been shown to enhance differentiation and proliferation of B- and T-cells, likely due to its gene regulating effects. Vitamin C deficiency results in impaired immunity and higher susceptibility to infections. In turn, infections use up vitamin C levels due to enhanced inflammation and metabolic needs of the vitamin. Furthermore, supplementation with vitamin C appears to be able to both prevent and treat respiratory and systemic infections.
Vitamin B1 (Thiamine) Plays an important role in energy metabolism, immunity boosting and functioning of nervous system.
Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin) – A powerful antioxidant and plays a vital role in maintaining healthy blood cells and boosts metabolism.
Vitamin B3 (Niacin) Plays a critical role in proper functioning of the nervous and digestive systems. It is necessary for energy production and metabolism of fatty acids. It also provides healthy skin, nails, and hair.
Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic Acid) Essential for healthy development of the central nervous system. It is involved in energy production and through different metabolic and anabolic cycles in development of amino acids, blood cells, vitamin D3 and other fatty acids.
Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine) Vitamin B6 has a very influential role in synthesis of neurotransmitters and is essential for good mental health. It also has a direct effect on immune function. It plays a role in metabolism of amino acids. Crucial for red blood cells that carry oxygen through the body.
Vitamin B12 (Hydroxycobalamine): Essential for formation of new immune cells and oxygen delivery to the body.
Recover faster and prepare for exercise with hydration, select amino acids that show evidence of improving performance and recovery, and essential vitamins and minerals.
Taurine– Studies strongly suggest that taurine supplementation, even when taken short-term; may support better physical function, mitigate the cardiovascular risks that can be present after exercising. Taurine may accomplish this by reducing inflammation and lowering blood pressure. Some research suggests that taurine may calm the nervous system and even improve the function of the left ventricle of the heart. The study found that Taurine may reduce triglycerides, prevent obesity, improving insulin resistance, regulate glucose metabolism, lower cholesterol, and reduce blood pressure.
Carnitine – An amino acid present in large amounts in muscles plays a key role in energy metabolism. Some studies have shown an increase in endurance in athletes supplemented with carnitine. Many Olympic athletes use carnitine as a supplement.
L-Arginine: L-arginine is an amino acid that can be obtained from the diet and is necessary for the body to synthesize proteins. Arginine is converted by the body into another important substance – nitric oxide.
Nitric oxide relaxes blood vessels which is vital for healthy blood flow to the heart and organs throughout the body (including genitals). Nitric oxide aids blood vessels to maintain the flexibility needed for unrestricted blood flow. This improved blood flow helps maintain both optimal blood pressure and a proper sexual function.
L-arginine has been studied in clinical research aimed at improving heart and blood vessel conditions
L-arginine has been used in several studies including recurring pain in the legs from blocked arteries, decreased mental capacity due to age (dementia), and male infertility.
In addition to other amino acids, arginine has been used to improve healing, and shorten recovery times after surgery. It has also been used in protocols used to diagnose growth hormone deficiency since it may stimulate the release of that hormone.
Tri-amino blend: Supplementation of these amino acids relates nitric oxide (NO) production, ammonia detoxification and growth hormone (GH) secretion in the body. NO is effective for vessel vasodilatation, which enhances O2 and nutrients delivery to working muscle during exercise. Ammonia is thought to be one of the causes of exercise-induced fatigue and is metabolized to urea in the urea cycle in the liver. GH affects protein synthesis and intake of amino acids into muscle cells; therefore, supplementation of these amino acids may induce skeletal muscle hypertrophy.
Preliminary research shows that supplements containing l-ornithine may improve athletic performance, such as; speed, strength, and power. Studies have also shown that l-ornithine may help to support healthy wound recovery; this benefit is attributed to the role of l-ornithine in producing collagen. There is evidence that l-ornithine may act to decrease anxiety levels when combined with caffeine, possibly because l-ornithine has the ability to cross the blood-brain barrier.
L-Citrulline: L-citrulline is an amino acid that boosts the production of nitric oxide in the body.11 Nitric oxide acts to relax the arteries for improved blood flow throughout the body.
Some studies indicate that l-citrulline may help people with diabetes that have circulatory issues such as slow wound healing.12 Because of its effects in increasing nitric oxide production, l-citrulline supplementation may improve dilation of blood vessels and blood flow that can improve the symptoms of mild to moderate degrees of erectile dysfunction.13
L-Ornithine: L-ornithine is another nitrogen precursor like arginine. It is also the amino acid used in the body’s urea cycle, which makes it possible to eliminate excess nitrogen (ammonia) from the body. Ammonia is the waste product of normal cellular metabolism. It becomes toxic when it accumulates in the body. L-ornithine is the catalyst in a process that changes ammonia into urea, which is eliminated by urination. The highest concentration of l-ornithine is found in connective tissues like the skin.22
Vitamin B complex –Vitamins required for energy metabolism. These are used up quickly in times of strenuous exercise.
Touted as a miracle anti-aging, anti-fatigue molecule, NAD+ is rapidly growing in popularity among those who have tried it. While NAD+ has been used to treat addiction since the 1960’s, it is now being researched for its role in treating a myriad of health conditions including aging itself.
Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant used across the world to make skin “glow”. It is necessary in all cells of the body for detoxifying and repairing damage. Adding IV hydration, zinc, and B vitamins that are needed for skin health and general health is the best combination for rapid skin health and cosmetic appearance from the inside out.
John Meyers was the Baltimore physician who discovered that micronutrient infusions effectively treated a myriad of medical conditions. His work has been picking up steam since it was revived in the 80’s and now millions of people receive IV nutrient drips all over the world based on his cocktail.
Wow wow!!! I absolutely love it 😍😍😍 I was stressed so much but after infusions I feel like I’m to life! Thank you!
