What is IV Vitamin Therapy?

With IV Nutrition/ IV Vitamin Therapy, minerals and vitamins are administered into the body through the veins. Because the vitamins and micronutrients don’t need to be metabolized through the gut and intestines they can get into the bloodstream faster and do their job in a more efficient way. Ultimately, only small amounts of vitamins and micronutrients go to waste with the IV Vitamin therapy method and most of the nutrients are absorbed and used by the body almost immediately. This way we can gain the full benefits of the vitamins and micronutrients administered through the veins rather than by mouth. Dr. Farah Sultan offers a comprehensive list of Wellness programs that include IV Vitamin Therapy.

What is in an IV Micronutrient Infusion?

There are a variety of substances that may be in typical IV micronutrient infusion. At Vitalogy Wellness and Med-Spa each treatment is tailored to the patient’s specific need. Why? Because different wellness concerns, illnesses or medical conditions may require a particular combination of IV vitamins and micronutrients to achieve the optimal outcome. Additionally, the components of an IV vitamin bag may also be tailored based on the wellness goals of the individual receiving the infusion; Dr. Sultan can perform extensive blood testing and conducts one one consultations (virtual or in office) in order to determine what is needed to achieve each health goal. Some of the conditions addressed with IV therapy include overall wellness, vitamin deficiencies, lead poisoning, obesity, and more.
