IV therapy is a safe and effective way to deliver fluids, vitamins, and medications directly into your bloodstream. This type of treatment is especially beneficial for people who cannot take oral medicines, are ill, or have other health conditions that prevent them from taking supplements in pill form.
VB Florida offers a wide range of IV therapies that can help improve your health and well-being. We also administer nutritional injections to boost your immune system and support healing.
What is an IV Bag?
An IV bag is a plastic tube with a pouch that holds a fluid solution for infusion. It may contain a variety of different ingredients to suit the needs of the patient being treated.
Saline solutions, containing water and sodium chloride, are the main base ingredient for most IV bags. Other ingredients include vitamins, medication and anti-inflammatories.
These sets are best for use with plastic or glass containers because fluid won’t flow from them unless the vent is open.
Non-Vented IV Sets
Non-vented IV sets don’t have air vents in their tubing, so they require a pump to prime the fluid. This creates a vacuum within the plastic bag, allowing it to collapse when the fluid is emptied. This type of tubing is also gravity dependent, and depends on flow rate regulators to administer medication into patients.
What is an IV Infusion?
IV therapy is a type of medicine that delivers liquids, nutrients and other medications directly to the bloodstream. It’s a safe and effective way to treat illnesses, infections and improve overall health.
Most often, people receive fluids or Vitamin Bar’s IV drip to promote healthy immune system function, keep them hydrated and balance the body’s nutrients. It also helps promote a healthy skin tone and boost energy levels.
When the infusion process is over, your healthcare provider removes the needle from your arm and sterile the area. Your treatment may last 30 minutes or longer, depending on the amount of fluid or medication you receive.
Germ-Killing Solution
Your health care team will also check your IV site to make sure there are no signs of infection, such as redness or swelling. They’ll also wash the site with a germ-killing solution to reduce your risk of developing an infection.
Combination of Vitamins
A Myers’ cocktail is a combination of vitamins, minerals, and nutrients that have been formulated to boost your immune system. It is also used to improve the symptoms of various health conditions, including fatigue, anxiety, and depression.
The ingredients in a Myers’ cocktail include magnesium chloride, ascorbic acid, calcium gluconate, and hydrosol B12. It is administered directly into the bloodstream and bypasses the digestive system.
Production of Red Blood Cells
It helps the body to produce oxygen and protects it from diseases like high blood pressure.
Another important component is Glutathione, which is a powerful antioxidant that can help fight infection. It can also be helpful in treating chronic illnesses like fibromyalgia and arthritis.
Many people have been reported to experience a reduction in migraines after receiving regular Myers’ Cocktail IV therapy. This is due to improved hydration, which can prevent the disruption of your internal sleep-wake cycle that can lead to migraines.
What is an Antioxidant IV?
An antioxidant IV bathes a person’s cells with essential nutrients that fight off free radicals in the body. Antioxidants protect the body from disease, prevent aging, and improve wellness.
Glutathione, the master antioxidant, is a powerful fighter against oxidative stress. It also aids in liver detox, helps with lowering inflammation, and may help ease the symptoms of autoimmune diseases like ulcerative colitis or rheumatoid arthritis.
Increases Levels of Vitamins C & E
Alpha Lipoid Acid (ALA) is another powerful antioxidant that increases levels of Vitamins C and E, coenzyme Q10, and glutathione in the body. ALA is fat and water soluble, which means it can reach all parts of the body.
Final Words:
Having an antioxidant IV can help you achieve many benefits including increased energy, clearer skin, better sleep, improved performance, and faster healing time after injury or illness. It can even help with a variety of health issues such as cancer, high blood pressure, and diabetes.
