Schedule ConsultationIV hydration and vitamin therapy is also sometimes called intravenous micronutrient therapy. During the treatment, an intravenous line is inserted and used to infuse vitamins and fluids into the bloodstream. The process has become popularized, with claims it can cure a hangover, clear your complexion, or improve fatigue. IV vitamin therapy may also help individuals with fibromyalgia, asthma, migraines, and cardiovascular disease. In certain situations, it can also help support your weight loss efforts.
However, each of these claims requires a different mix of vitamins and fluids to achieve the proper results. While small companies have begun offering these services, it is crucial to receive treatment from a physician-led team that can provide safe and effective IV hydration and vitamin therapy in Boston. Please speak with Dr. Dave Lee about how we implement this unique treatment.
WHO SHOULD NOT USE IV HYDRATION AND VITAMIN THERAPY?
There are many benefits for people in Boston to receive IV hydration and vitamin therapy, but the treatment is not for everyone. Several medical conditions are contraindications to using IV therapy. Individuals with kidney disease typically must closely monitor their fluid intake. Adding more fluid by using IV hydration can potentially increase the damage to the kidneys. People with hemochromatosis must ensure that IV vitamin therapy does not include iron. The illness causes people to build up toxic amounts of iron in the bloodstream and additional iron can do more damage. Individuals with a genetic disorder called glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency should also not receive IV hydration or vitamin therapy as it may increase the destruction of red blood cells and lead to further anemia.
Vitamin deficiency is a rampant problem in this country. Unfortunately, the health of the soil has been depleted, which leads to a food supply with lower levels of vitamins than was available even 30 years ago. Added to this, many people also consume ultra-processed foods, which do not have adequate levels of nutrition. IV hydration and vitamin therapy in Boston is one effective means of addressing vitamin deficiencies that can lead to many health problems, including heart disease, migraines, and fibromyalgia. We encourage you to call and schedule your consultation with Dr. Lee to learn more about IV hydration and vitamin therapy and how it might help address your health conditions.
