Boost Your Immune System

High-dose Vitamin C IV hydration therapy is an excellent form of therapy to strengthen your immune system’s ability to fight infections and protect against disease.  

Treatment Overview

High-Dose vitamin C infusion therapy delivers a potent dose of vitamin C (25-100g) directly into the bloodstream through an IV drip. Vitamin C is an essential nutrient and is important for several bodily functions.

The Benefits of High-Dose Vitamin C IV Therapy?

Vitamin C is also known as ascorbic acid and is a vital component for the growth, development, and repair of all tissues found within the body. Vitamin C is essential in that it is acquired from different fruits and vegetables in our diet and oral supplements, and not naturally produced in the human body. When vitamin C is ingested as a supplement, the body may only absorb as little as 10-20% of the oral dose consumed. 

High-dose vitamin C IV therapy delivers a large amount of vitamin C directly into the body through the circulatory system. This method of treatment provides 100% bioavailable vitamin C that is easily absorbed and utilized for vital functions throughout the body. 

Strengthen the Immune System

Receiving high doses of vitamin C can help strengthen the immune system and improve the ability to fight infection and disease. At doses above 25 grams, Vitamin C is oxidative, meaning that it can upregulate your immune system with a controlled amount of inflammation that induces the body’s own self-healing cascade and help fight off infection. 

Antioxidant Properties 

Vitamin C, at doses up to 25 grams has antioxidant properties and protects cells from free radical damage. Free radicals are molecules that are produced from the breakdown of food, environmental toxins, tobacco smoke, and various forms of radiation, including ultraviolet rays from sunlight and those found in X-ray diagnostic testing. 

Reduce Inflammation

As an antioxidant, Vitamin C helps reduce inflammatory processes within the body. IV therapies are recommended before and after undergoing surgery or an invasive medical procedure, improving recovery.

Anemia

Treatment with high dose Vitamin C IV therapy has shown to be beneficial in the treatment of anemia, by improving the efficacy of oral iron supplementation. 

Increase Energy Levels 

Vitamin C also plays an important role in the production of energy in the body and high-dose IV fluids can help improve energy levels and mental clarity in those who experience chronic fatigue symptoms.

Benefits in Adjunct Cancer Treatment 

Some research studies have suggested that high dose Vitamin C therapy may be beneficial for cancer patients when added to a traditional treatment regimen. Simultaneous use of high dose Vitamin C therapy may improve the effectiveness of chemotherapy and radiation treatment, as well as improve the side effects caused by the cancer treatment.

What Conditions Does High Dose Vitamin C IV Therapy Treat?

When used in combination with other standard treatment modalities, high-dose vitamin C IV treatments may be beneficial when used in the treatment of inflammatory illnesses, such as

  • Lyme disease
  • Mold toxicity
  • Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (CIRS)
  • Chronic viral conditions such as EBV and Herpes
  • Chronic fatigue syndrome
  • Chronic pain
  • Cardiovascular disease
  • Autoimmune conditions
  • Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS)
  • Cancer (as an adjunct therapy) 
  • Anemia

Always consult with a qualified healthcare provider before undergoing any medical treatment or procedure, including high-dose vitamin C IV therapy. To make an informed decision regarding your care and to determine if IV therapy is right for you, labs should be performed and all potential risks and benefits should be thoroughly discussed with your healthcare provider.
