IV Vitamin Infusions

Because vitamins and minerals cannot be patented, there has been little financial support for large-scale studies of their safety and efficacy, particularly in comparison to patented (and profitable) prescription drugs. However, the growing body of peer-reviewed studies of IV infusion therapies has found few significant side effects. IV infusion therapies have consistently been shown to be safe. We recognize that some clinicians assert that patients should obtain all vitamins and nutrients through diet alone.

While proper dietary intake of vitamins is essential, the assertion that only oral intake should be used fails in several significant regards. First, few of us maintain a lifestyle that permits such optimal nutrition and hydration. Second, many people are unable to consume the amount of fruit, vegetables, and other food products necessary to achieve such optimal nutrient levels. Third, some people enjoy vegan or other restrictive diets that should be supplemented to achieve optimal nutrient intake. Fourth, many people require targeted nutritional uptake, due to lifestyle, major life stressors, or conditions affecting the stomach and intestines that cannot realistically be attained by self-directed dietary management. Lastly, many nutrients, such as Vitamin C, are rate-limited when taken orally, such that genuinely beneficial blood serum levels can only be attained by IV infusion.

Vitamin insufficiency can lead to an array of symptoms that include; depressed mood, increased anxiety, fatigue, muscle aching, neuropathy, brain fog, and other symptoms that compromise quality of life. Because the symptoms overlap a host of other diagnosed conditions, and because most doctors are not thoroughly trained in nutrition and vitamin support therapy, the cause can be overlooked.

There are 13 essential vitamins. These are vitamins that your body cannot manufacture and that you must acquire in order to survive. Among the 13 essential vitamins there are four that are considered fat soluble. Those are vitamins D, E, K, and A. Fat soluble means that your body has a capacity to store them.

There are also 9 water soluble vitamins. Those vitamins include 8 essential B vitamins, and vitamin C.

“RDA,” or Recommended Daily Allowances, were established approximately 40 years ago. They represent the minimum needed to avoid disease, but do they represent the best amount? It is possible that people can benefit from greater amounts.

Simply put, there is no better way to achieve high dose vitamins and deliver them directly to the cell than via direct infusion. Many people are afflicted with conditions that impair absorption of vitamins. Irritable bowel, leaky gut, and even the use of antacids, antibiotics and other medications may interfere with nutrient absorption.

DRIPBaR clients have chosen to use IV vitamin support to help them with conditions ranging from the common cold, to headaches, fibromyalgia or any of the conditions listed above. Still other clients have made the safe administration of regular intravenous infusions of high-dose vitamins part of their health maintenance routine.
