WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF IV HYDRATION?

Intravenous (IV) hydration is a safe and fast way to provide your body with the nutrition it needs. While previous IV treatments focused on helping people suffering from dehydration and eating difficulties, medical and wellness researchers have discovered new ways to use IV therapy. Because IV hydration bypasses the digestive system, it is an effective way to deliver medications, vitamins, and other nutrients directly into the bloodstream.

Why IV Hydration?

More Efficient

Previously, drinking fluids was considered the best solution to dehydration. However, researchers later found that when people drink water after a workout session, most of it is absorbed by the tissues in the throat and those along the digestive tract. To hydrate all the other tissues in your body after a gym session, you have to drink a lot of water. IV therapy hydrates your body more efficiently by delivering fluids directly into your bloodstream, where they travel to parts that need them most.

More Than Just Fluids

When you push your body to the limit, you lose more than just fluids. Therefore, drinking a lot of water is not always enough. To stay in top form, you also need to replenish your electrolytes and other nutrients. As we have mentioned above, drinking water is not an effective way of delivering nutrients where they are urgently needed. Neither does it replenish lost electrolytes and nutrients. IV hydration, on the other hand, refreshes and replenishes your body with nutrients instantly, leaving you hydrated and revitalized. 

Easier on Your Digestive System

Excessive intake of fluids is not always kind to your digestive system. Your body has a limit for the volume of fluids it can absorb at one time. When you drink more fluids than your body can process, your digestive system strains to get rid of the excess volume. During this process, your digestive system can also flush out some essential nutrients. Additionally, people who drink fluids with supplements often complain of irritation in their digestive tract. Since IV therapy does not rely on the digestive system to deliver nutrients and fluids to your body, it creates less waste, allowing you to retain most of the nutrients.

Reduced Recovery Time

Hydration is an important part of the recovery process. It offers relief from muscle soreness and stiffness after an intense workout session. Hydration can restore your energy levels after a tiring, long day at the office. It can also help you sober up faster. Additionally, it can help you recover from a hangover in no time after a night of overindulgence. A cocktail of vitamins, nutrients, and fluids that an IV therapy delivers will leave you feeling great and back on your feet in a flash.

Health Benefits of IV Hydration

Since the digestive system metabolizes supplements that are consumed orally, it reduces the amount of nutrients, vitamins, and medication that reach the bloodstream. Besides speeding up the effectiveness of treatment, IV therapy ensures 100% absorption for optimal use and minimal waste. Because IV therapy delivers medications and vitamins directly to the cells that need them, it can improve and impact a wide variety of body functions. Here are several health benefits of IV therapy:

Improved Wellness

Many people think wellness is just about their health. However, wellness is a general cover term for several factors that contribute to your overall wellbeing, including all aspects of your life, from your emotions to your environment. By providing your body with the tools it needs to stay in peak form, IV therapy improves not only your physical wellness, but also some aspects of your emotional wellness. It can help you fight some mental conditions, such as anxiety and depression. The ideal balance of vitamins and nutrients provided by IV therapy leaves you feeling better, and improves your immunity and mental clarity.

IV Therapy For Overall Wellbeing

To function properly, your body needs a certain amount of vitamins and nutrients. While the amount of vitamins and nutrients required for normal function varies from one person to the next, a busy routine or an unconventional lifestyle can prevent you from meeting your daily intake requirements. Taking multivitamins does not help much either because some of the nutrients are lost during the metabolic process. Additionally, people with impaired absorption find it challenging to convert nutrients into usable energy for cells effectively. IV therapy provides your body with the vitamins and nutrients it needs to:

• Boost energy levels

• Improve immune health

• Fight anxiety

• Improve symptoms of depression

• Combat fatigue

• Improve mental clarity and cognitive function

• Improve symptoms of asthma

• Reduce the symptoms of migraines

• Maintain the strength of muscles and tissues

• Accelerate wound healing

• Fight allergies

Improved Athletic Performance

Athletes push their bodies to the limit in search of excellence. To maintain peak performance and to compete at the highest level, the body requires a constant supply of vitamins and nutrients. Besides putting a strain on the muscles, intensive training and workouts also cause a gradual buildup of free radicals. IV therapy can help the bodies of athletes flush out free radicals, heal faster, hydrate adequately and quickly, and maintain muscle and tissues.

Since IV therapy for athletes also delivers amino acids, the building blocks of proteins, it promotes muscle development and plays a vital role in the recovery process. It is important to note that IV therapy is ideal for both professional and amateur athletes. You can use the powerful combination of essential nutrients and rehydration to keep your body fit for an intense training session or a competition. IV therapy can improve athletic performance by:

• Providing fast and adequate hydration

• Maintaining healthy muscle and tissue

• Reducing recovery time

• Supporting muscle recovery

• Acting as part of a recovery plan after a competition or workout

• Acting as a pre-exercise endurance boost

• Flushing out free radicals that result from intense exercise

Support Healthy Weight Loss

Three in every four Americans are overweight or obese. The two leading causes of death in the United States are heart disease and cancer, respectively. Both conditions have been closely linked to unhealthy weight. While a healthy diet and regular exercise are often suggested as the best options to help people get rid of unhealthy weight, data shows that these strategies alone do not deliver the desired results to most people. Fortunately, IV hydration can support your weight loss efforts.

Through a unique formula of fluids, vitamins, and lipotropics (fat-burning compounds), our IV hydration can boost your body’s ability to break down fat and burn calories. When incorporated in a comprehensive weight loss program that includes a healthy diet and regular exercise, IV therapy has proven to be an effective tool against unhealthy weight.

Accentuated Beauty

Through a unique combination of vitamins, nutrients, and antioxidants, IV therapy can improve the strength and health of your hair, skin, and nails. This unique formula detoxifies your body and rejuvenates your appearance from the inside, leaving you feeling and looking like the younger version of yourself. Unlike oral supplements and topical creams, IV treatments release antioxidants into your bloodstream to target and flash out free radicals. Free radicals contribute to aging and tissue damage.

Additional ingredients, such as glutathione and biotin found in the IV therapy repair UV damage, remove toxins from your body, and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. IV therapy can also:

• Slow the aging process

• Brighten the skin

• Improve blemishes

Fast Hangover Relief

Since alcohol is a diuretic, it can leave you dehydrated, especially after a night of overindulgence. When you consume large amounts of alcohol, tissues in your head and other parts of the body shrink. This shrinkage causes headaches and muscle aches. Additionally, your liver produces toxins that can cause discomfort in several parts of the body. When you overindulge and fail to replenish the fluids and nutrients, you can experience the unpleasant symptoms of a hangover. These include:

• Headaches

• Nausea, vomiting

• Stomach pain

• Increased heart rate

• Sensitivity to light and sound

• Changes in mood

• Fatigue

• Dizziness

• Muscle aches

Fast Relief

A severe hangover can last up to 24 hours. Hangovers are often hard on the body, giving you a sickly feeling. But you should not regret having a good time. An IV treatment for hangover contains vitamins, anti-nausea medication and anti-inflammatory medication, electrolytes, and a saline solution. This formula not only replenishes the electrolytes and nutrients but also rehydrates and detoxifies your body. It is so effective you can get relief within an hour of treatment.
