How IV Therapy Can Boost Your Immune System

Many of us lead busy lives and when we feel an illness coming on, it can put a damper on our plans. The good news is that if you feel like you’re coming down with something, IV therapy can help you to fight it off. By boosting your immune system with a cocktail of fluids and essential vitamins, you can carry on with your daily activities.

Why is your immune system so important? It protects your body from bacteria, viruses, parasites, and other harmful organisms. You are surrounded by pathogens every day, but your immune system prevents them from attacking you. When that system is not as strong as it should be, you become vulnerable to attack and you can get ill.

What IV Hydration Can Do for You

You need to consume adequate fluids to keep all of the systems in your body in good working order. If you are ill or becoming ill, you need even more fluids to support an immune response. Not only does water help your body to get rid of toxins, but it thins mucus and replaces fluids lost to fever. While consuming fluids orally can help, your body won’t absorb all the liquid you drink. Also, if you try to drink too much too quickly, you’ll probably feel nauseous.

IV therapy delivers fluids directly into your bloodstream and you begin to feel the effects of the boost in fluids almost right away. You’ll also get a concentrated dose of the vitamins and antioxidants you need to stave off the cold, flu or other illness. Since sickness is very demanding on the body, you need more vitamins and nutrients than usual to function. Boosting the levels of antioxidants in the body can help you to recover faster.

Your IV cocktail will consist of a sterile saline solution along with some combination of:

  • Vitamin B12
  • B-Complex Vitamins
  • Vitamin C
  • Glutathione

When you get these nutrients via IV, the dosage is around 20 times more potent than that of oral supplements. In addition, your body benefits from the full amount since the nutrients don’t pass through the digestive system.
