Question 1

How do IVs work?

Accepted Answer

Intravenous (within the vein) therapy delivers fluids and nutrients directly into the blood stream, bypassing the digestive system. This enables the body to absorb almost 100% of the vitamins, minerals and anti-oxidants. In short, it can be the fastest, most efficient delivery method to distribute vital fluids and nutrients throughout your body.

IVs can also boost athletic performance/recovery, boost immunity and provide you with a healthy glow.
