When Should I Get IV Vitamin Therapy?

When Should I Get IV Vitamin Therapy?

You probably grew up believing that all you had to do was eat a healthy, well-rounded diet to get all of the vitamins and minerals you need. While that may have been true a few generations ago, the food supply has changed drastically since then.

Conspiring against that age-old strategy are factory farm technologies, soil that’s depleted of microbes and minerals, as well as hybrids of plants that are easier to grow and tastier, albeit nutrient-poor. To compensate, you may have added supplements containing vitamins and minerals to your diet.

But if you still don’t feel as vibrant and sharp as you desire, you may need more of a boost. Your body relies on vitamins and minerals to regulate metabolism, build a strong immune system, and keep your vision and skin strong and healthy.

At the Rheumatology Center of New Jersey, our wellness team offers intravenous (IV) vitamin treatments at our Sirens Medspa in Somerville, New Jersey. An IV cocktail of vitamins and minerals can replenish and improve your nutrient levels.

Should you join the roster of celebrities like Rihanna and get an IV vitamin drip? Here are some reasons why you should.

You want more energy

If a healthy diet, regular exercise, and adequate sleep don’t give you the charge you need to power through the day, you could benefit from an IV vitamin cocktail. We customize our cocktails based on your needs and goals.

For instance, a vitamin B complex cocktail reinvigorates your entire body. The different forms of vitamin B help you:

Simon Cowell of “America’s Got Talent” fame uses vitamin B drips to keep his energy levels high during production.

You’re recovering 

Anything that stresses your body can dehydrate and deplete it of vitamins and minerals. An IV vitamin treatment provides your body with the nutrients it needs right away. Instead of being processed (and depleted) by your gastrointestinal system, the nutrients go straight into your bloodstream.

An IV drip also contains saline solution, which rehydrates your body’s tissues. You may need an IV vitamin treatment to help you recover from:

In addition to vitamins and minerals, your cocktail may contain an amino acid, such as taurine, that reduces muscle damage and helps your body produce more lean muscle. Taurine also gives your cells more energy for recovery and rebuilding.

You want to feel sharper

Whether you’ve ever had a senior moment (no matter what your age) or not, you don’t want to go down that slippery slope. To stay sharp and alert, your brain must receive enough hydration and the minerals and vitamins it needs to keep your neurotransmitters firing rapidly.

If you’re interested in enhancing cognition, we may add nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) to your mix. Sufficient NAD is associated with increased mental clarity and memory. It also has antiaging effects.

You want to slow the clock

Nutrients such as glutathione and NAD help improve skin health and optimize cellular function. As you age, your body is less able to produce glutathione, NAD, and other essential nutrients on their own.

In addition, your tissues accumulate the many toxins that you’re exposed to in your environment and in less-than-ideal food sources. By carefully selecting your IV ingredients, we help your body:

Jane Fonda is just one of the many celebrities who turn to IV drips for their antiaging and energy-boosting effects. You don’t have to be in the spotlight, though, to want to look and feel your best in any light.
