Intravenous (IV) supplements and vitamins:
Delivering A Potent Dosage Of Vitamins
When receiving an IV vitamin treatment, a liquid mixture of vitamins and minerals is delivered directly into the body, allowing the nutrients to be absorbed quickly and directly into the bloodstream. This method produces higher levels of the vitamins and minerals in the body versus getting them from food or supplements. The reason for this is that several factors affect our body’s ability to absorb nutrients in the stomach. Factors include age, metabolism, health status, genetics, interactions with other products we consume, and the physical and chemical makeup of the nutritional supplement or food. Higher levels of the vitamins and minerals in your bloodstream lead to greater uptake into cells, which can use the nutrients to maintain health and fight illness.
Possible Benefits of IV Nutrient Therapy:
- Boosts Energy
- Detoxifies the body
- Enhances the immune system
- Helps prevent illness
- Decreases artery plaque
- Combats chronic fatigue
- Improves hangovers
- Reverses symptoms of malnutrition
- Assists with age management
What kind of person or type of health concerns would benefit the most from this practice and why?
Traditionally, people who aren’t able to eat enough food, or who have an illness that interferes with nutrient absorption would be good candidates for IV vitamin therapy. Other uses for IV vitamin drips include correcting dehydration after extreme exercise or alcohol intake, boosting the immune system, and increasing energy levels.
Those with immune deficiencies, chronic fatigue and those that suffer from nutrient deficiencies and other imbalances that can be helped through IV therapy. This treatment is a unique and powerful option that is very useful for certain conditions because it achieves better results, faster.
Whether you want to enhance your energy, improve your overall health, treat specific medical conditions, or maintain optimal health and work on preventing future conditions, IV vitamin therapy can replenish the nutrients your body needs for optimal health.

Why IV Nutrient Therapy?
Why should you go to the trouble and expense of doing IV nutrient therapy when you can buy over-the-counter oral supplements and take them in the comfort of your own home?
It’s a question I get asked ALL the time.
I know it seems counter-intuitive to go into a clinic for IV therapy when supplements seem to be everywhere these days. But there are actually many sounds scientific reasons to do so.
Much of it comes down to one simple concept.
Absorption.
The IV Route
An IV infusion delivers 100% of each vitamin directly into your blood stream. You can relax in a recliner while we flood your cells directly with abundant doses of nourishing vitamins and nutrients.
Absorption is completely bypassed!
That means your gut doesn’t have to go to the work of breaking down food into its constituent vitamins, nutrients, minerals, and amino acids, your small intestine doesn’t have to pass them through its walls, your cells don’t have to seek out these molecules. Mega-doses of the nutrients you need to heal are delivered right where they need to go.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: IV therapy is like the urgent care of Functional Medicine. It allows for an immediate effect.
The Oral Route
When you take a vitamin by mouth, your body has to do a lot of work to move that vitamin into the blood stream. The process is actually fairly complex and quite inefficient.
Water-soluble vitamins, for example, are large molecules. They can’t just pass through from your intestines directly into the blood stream like IV vitamins can. Instead they have to cross your “enterocytes” or “colonocytes”—fancy terms for the layer of cells lining the entire intestinal tract. These cells have phospholipid cell membranes that are impenetrable to water soluble vitamins and nutrients.
Unless you’ve already discovered liposomal vitamins (discussed in another post) which are wrapped in the same phospholipids making up the cell membranes, the “regular” water soluble vitamins actually need special “transporters” to move each individual nutrient across the cells lining the intestinal tract.
One such transporter is called the Sodium-dependent Multi Vitamin Transporter (SMVT). Think of the SMVT (or any other multi-vitamin transporter) like the passport control station at the border between two countries. They allow certain individuals to get through while prohibiting others. In this case the “individuals” are vitamins trying to cross the border to get from the gut into your blood circulation.
Aside from being limited in capacity, the SMVT transporter regulates the absorption of several vitamins and nutrients: Biotin (vitamin B1) important in skin, hair, nails integrity and immune function, pantothenic Acid (vitamin B5) and alpha lipoic acid (ALA – a key antioxidant).
Oral vitamins compete with each other for access to the blood stream!
Because it is responsible for the transport of several nutrients this means each of them has to get in line waiting to cross the border into your blood circulation. This means oral vitamins compete with each other for access to the blood stream!
Put simply oral supplements are not very efficient or bioavailable to your body.
Oral vitamin supplementation is:
- Dependent on crossing the cells forming intestinal lining for absorption into the circulation.
- Dependent on an intact intestinal lining which can be easily damaged by stress, alcohol, infections and medications.
- Reliant on specific transporters for each vitamin which are sensitive to alcohol use and are “competitive” as several vitamins try to use the same transporter.
- Less expensive but also much less efficient compared to IV infusions.
Intravenous (IV) supplements and vitamins:
- Bypass absorption completely making them immediately 100% bioavailable to you.
- Deliver high concentrations of nourishing vitamins unattainable with the oral route.
- Is almost painless with the use of a special freezing skin spray that we employ in our clinic.
- Is more expensive but is typically worth it for those who have symptoms of vitamin deficiencies including fatigue, headaches, weight gain, frequent infections, dry blemished skin, brittle hair and nails, and more.
- Can have an immediate impact on your health—they are like the urgent care of functional medicine.
