Intravenous therapy (IV therapy) is a safe and effective way to deliver nutrients to body tissues and cells by direct infusion into the bloodstream. IV therapy helps to correct low nutrient levels by getting blood concentrations that cannot be provided orally.
Intravenous therapy involves the injection of vitamin and mineral solutions into the veins in the arm. The direct injection into the vein ensures strong delivery and absorption. Oral consumption of vitamins or nutrients only provides 10-25 per cent benefit to the cells, whereas IV therapy provides 100 per cent benefit.
The intravenous system is particularly important in people with chronic diseases and/or a problematic gastrointestinal tract. Patients who have problems absorbing nutrients, those diagnosed with chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, immune deficiencies and other chronic conditions are among those most in need of this type of therapy.
Amino acids are molecules that form the building blocks of proteins. Amino acids are important for many functions, including metabolic balance, waste energy transport and movement, energy production, cellular signalling, cellular communication and immune support and activation.
During treatment, patients are injected with the necessary amino acids and a complementary amino acid formulation via IV. This method of treatment guarantees that all amino acids enter directly into the circulatory system without any damage to intestinal absorption due to the presence of disease or medication intake.
Intravenous magnesium has been shown to improve survival after heart attack. It has also been shown to regulate arrhythmia, lower blood pressure, and improve outcomes in patients undergoing stenting for blocked coronary arteries.
Patients with asthma, COPD and chronic bronchitis benefit from this treatment because IV magnesium relaxes the spastic bronchial tubes associated with these diseases. This treatment is also important and useful for diabetic patients suffering from retinopathy (eye damage) and improves insulin sensitivity.
High doses of vitamin C therapy have also been used in certain cancer cases and positive results have been found, ranging from improved quality of life to tumour death. There are many studies on vitamin C and its effect on cancer in tissue culture. The use of vitamin C concentrations in tissue culture against cancer is only possible with intravenous therapy.
A 2008 study published in the Journal of the National Academy of Sciences showed that high intravenous levels of this agent reduced tumour volume by 41-53%. This requires each IV dose to be around 60-75 grams (65000 - 75000 mg). High doses of vitamin C therapy also greatly reduce fatigue, nausea, pain and loss of appetite during chemotherapy.
In order to kill cancer cells, vitamin C levels of 1,000 to 5,000 micromoles per litre are required. According to findings published in the 'Canadian Medical Association Journal', the only way to increase the concentration of vitamin C in the blood to an effective level is to inject the vitamin intrevenously.
Anti-viral effects of vitamin C are seen when blood levels are around 10-15 mg/dL. This level can only be reached intravenously, not orally. While the oral route raises blood levels to 1.2-4.0 mg/dL, this rate is 50-90 mg/dL in IV.
The patient received vitamin C therapy for 9 days, which ended with improved lung function. Afterwards, there was no need for supplemental oxygen. According to the University of Maryland Medical Centre report, high doses of intravenous vitamin C therapy can be used to treat hepatitis C

In vitro, vitamin C at a concentration of 88 mg/dL destroyed 72% of histamine in the medium. This is probably why IV vitamin C is generally effective in the treatment of allergy and asthma. Intravenous vitamin C has been used to treat optic neuritis, an inflammation of the optic nerve that can cause severe vision loss.
A 1996 study at Kitasato University in Japan found that high doses of intravenous vitamin C improved vision. B vitamins and oral corticosteroids or oral vitamin B12 are also effective.
ntravenous vitamin and mineral therapy was developed in the 1970s by John Meyer, a physician at Johns Hopkins University. The 'cocktail' is indicated for chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, depression, muscle spasms, asthma, urticaria, congestive heart failure, angina (chest pain), infections, and senile dementia. Myers Cocktail Therapy was originally developed by John Myers, a Maryland physician, in the 1970s. The formula is designed to improve fatigue and general health function. It contains vitamin C, B vitamins (B5, B6 and B12), B complex, calcium, magnesium and trace minerals.
The migraine IV 'cocktail' contains concentrations of magnesium, riboflavin, and other important nutrients to relieve acute and post-acute migraine attacks. IV therapy is only used in cases of migraine that do not respond to other treatment.
It is used in IV nutrient therapy, liver treatment and detoxification. It contains glutathione, ALA, hepar compositum and high doses of vitamin C. Silymarin, or bull thistle, is a plant with many useful ingredients.
The most important benefit is the repair of damaged liver cells. Intravenous infusion is effective in patients with elevated liver enzymes, hepatitis, cirrhosis, hepar compositum, fatty liver and liver cancer.
Intravenous nutrient therapy is used in asthma, COPD, pneumonia, respiratory infections and allergies. It contains vitamin C, magnesium, muoza compositum, and pyridoxine.
This intravenous Plaquex therapy is effective in patients with poor circulation, cardiovascular disease, neuropathy, and gallbladder dysfunction. Phosphatidylcholine, a naturally occurring fat emulsifier, causes bile stimulation and helps the liver to expel toxins and improve overall circulation.
