Did you know that humans cannot produce vitamin C? This is the case for all essential vitamins, so we need to obtain these specific nutrients from our diet, supplements, or in our case, IV therapy.
When taken by IV infusion, vitamin C can reach higher levels in the blood than when the same amount is taken by mouth. Vitamin C IV therapy ensures the nutrient bypasses your digestive tract and is delivered directly into your bloodstream. This allows your body to absorb more of the vitamins, which helps you to benefit from its effects quickly.
What Does Vitamin C Do?
Vitamin C plays a significant role in overall health. It may help fight stubborn fatigue by helping to increase our energy levels, and it may also help support immune function and healthy aging by reducing oxidative stress, which is known to accelerate signs of aging such as fine lines, wrinkles, and loss of skin elasticity.
It is an essential micronutrient for the growth, development and repair of all body tissues, and a cofactor for a family of biosynthetic and gene regulatory enzymes. It is a highly effective antioxidant, due to its ability to readily donate electrons, thus protecting important biomolecules from free radical damage.
Vitamin C works every day to support your adrenal glands, deliver sustained energy levels, and protect your skin. It also can help strengthen your bones and increase the production of white blood cells for optimal immune function. Vitamin C is also necessary for collagen production, which impacts hair, skin, and nail health, which is why staying on top of your vitamin C and other antioxidant levels can keep you glowing and looking young.
Studies also show that it can help support how your body handles stress, specifically in regards to the levels of stress hormone in your blood.
