The immune system is our body’s defense against harmful invaders. We encounter billions of harmful pathogens throughout the day. The main task of the immune system is to recognize, fight off, and neutralize pathogens, parasites and fungi then remove them from the body. It also fights disease-causing changes in the body, such as cancer cells.
IV Therapy
IV therapy can help boost the immune system by delivering essential nutrients, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants directly into the bloodstream. IV therapy treatments are a great option because of their bioavailability. Bioavailability refers to the specific absorption of a substance into the circulatory system where it can be used efficiently throughout the body. Oral supplements are absorbed in the gut and metabolized; therefore, absorption is slower and lower concentrations are delivered for use. IV treatments are delivered directly to the bloodstream where 100% of the product is available systemically in the body at a rapid rate.

Vitamin C
You’ve probably heard that when you’re sick, reaching for some extra Vitamin C will help knock it out. That’s true! Vitamin C is an antioxidant that helps neutralize free radicals which can damage immune cells. Vitamin C also helps repair skin cells. The skin is our body’s natural barrier to outside invaders.
Vitamin B-complex
There are many different types of IV treatments which boost immune function. B-Complex vitamins are crucial and worth noting. These vitamins produce and activate immune cells and support the production of antibodies. B Vitamins help provide immune cells with energy in order to function properly.
Others
Zinc: Helps with wound healing, supports white blood cell function and aids in fighting off infections.
Selenium: Acts as an antioxidant to help reduce oxidative stress on cells. Supports proper thyroid function.
Glutathione: A potent antioxidant, it helps with the detoxification processes within cells.
Vitamin D- Helps mitigate inflammatory response and infections. Is effective in the treatment of autoimmune disorders and cancer treatments.
Hydration
Part of the job of the immune system is to recognize and neutralize harmful pathogens from the body. The lymphatic system acts as a drainage system for the body, helping to remove waste and toxins. Proper hydration aids the lymphatic system in circulating and draining waste from the body. Proper hydration is part of the foundation of a healthy body and provides all body cells and tissues with the energy they need to function properly.
Electrolytes
Electrolytes are frequently added to a hydration bag during an IV treatment. Electrolytes like Sodium, Potassium, Magnesium and Calcium play an important role in immune function. Adequate electrolyte balance is important for the body’s inflammatory response, muscle and heart function and the communication between immune cells. IV therapy is great for maintaining a healthy immune system but can also contribute to better overall wellness. IV therapy treatments offer a way to replenish the body and reup on essential nutrients to maintain optimal health. A tune-up if you will. There are many categories of people who can benefit form this type of therapy. A healthy body needs maintenance to continue functioning at optimal levels. People suffering from illness benefit from regular treatments to help fight existing conditions and prevent further disease processes.
