IV Therapy in Largo, FL
A healthy diet rich in vitamins and minerals is the best way to nourish your body.
There are instances though, when the body has trouble obtaining these nutrients through natural digestive functions. Conditions such as stress , a medical illness, or food intolerances can inhibit the absorption of important substances such as calcium, magnesium, zinc, selenium, vitamins B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B12 , C, folic acid, glutathione , or biotin.
In these cases, injecting those nutrients directly into the bloodstream may be the best option to ensure that your body is getting what it needs. This is the goal of IV nutritional therapy.
