Vitamin C IV Therapy - The Benefits
&srotate=0)
One ingredient in the Myer's Cocktail, a popular vitamin IV therapy, is vitamin C.
Vitamin C, also known as L-ascorbic acid, is a water-soluble vitamin that is an important antioxidant and has been shown to regenerate other antioxidants within the body. Vitamin C is required by your body for the biosynthesis of collagen, an essential component of connective tissue that plays a vital role in wound healing. Vitamin C has been shown to regenerate other antioxidants within the body as well.
Vitamin C is important in preventing and treating a variety of diseases.
Vitamin C:
- Supports the immune system
- Is an anti-inflammatory and potent antioxidant
- Is required to make serotonin and other neurotransmitters
- Helps certain neurological diseases
Vitamin C IV Therapy is More Effective and
Preferred Than Pills Because:
- High dose vitamin C taken orally can give you diarrhea, nausea, abdominal cramps and other gastrointestinal problems due to the effect of unabsorbed vitamin C in the gastrointestinal tract.
- When you take vitamin C orally, only a small percentage is absorbed by the body, the rest is excreted.
- Taking large doses of vitamin C orally can raise plasma vitamin C concentrations to a maximum of 220 micromol/L, whereas a vitamin C IV can produce plasma concentrations as high as 26,000 micromol/L.
