How IV Hydration Therapy Effective
                                                                       How IV Hydration Therapy Effective       
IV  hydration,  or  intravenous  hydration,  is  a  a  growing  health  trend  used  to  administer
electrolyte-packed IV fluids directly into a patient’s bloodstream, and can be used for a number
of reasons including dehydration, hangovers, jet lag and much more. In IV hydration, solutions
containing saline, vitamins, minerals and nutrients are administered directly into the veins. The
advantage of IV hydration over other forms of treatment is that it allows the medications to
pass  through  the  stomach  and  small  intestines  quickly  and  absorb  directly  into  the
bloodstream.
The benefits of IV hydration therapies include the following. First, IV hydration allows nutrients
to  be  transported  to  the  bloodstream at  a  more  rapid  rate  vs  if  you  were  to  take  oral
medication.  Nutrients  are  fuel  for  the  body,  and  when  they  are  not  transported  to  the
bloodstream  quickly,  they  are  wasted.  By  speeding  the  delivery  of  nutrients  to  the
bloodstream,  IV  hydration  allows  these  nutrients  to  be  utilized  by  cells  within  the  body,
increasing their health and helping to prevent damage to the body. Second, by speeding the
transport of nutrients to the bloodstream, IV hydration helps to protect the GI tract from the
damage caused by nutritional deficiencies. IV hydration treatments can last anywhere for 45
minutes to an hour long, and results can be seen almost immediately.
Some of the most common uses for IV hydration therapy are treating hangovers and improving
athletic performance. If you are constantly pushing yourself to your physical limits, you could 
definitely benefit from an IV hydration therapy. Fluids, electrolytes, vitamins, minerals, amino 
acids are essential in converting energy and repairing the body during physical exertion. With 
IV hydration therapy, you can fuel your body with the proper fluids and nutrients to power 
through any athletic event. IV hydration can boost electrolyte levels, increase your immune 
system, and help prevent dehydration.
IV hydration can also increase energy levels. Energy levels can have a direct impact on overall 
well-being, contributing to increased productivity and reducing feelings of tiredness or 
weakness. Common energy boosting foods include whole-grain cereals, nuts, fruits and 
legumes. To maximize the full benefits of IV hydration, it is recommended that these foods are 
consumed daily in combination with regular exercise.
There are many reasons to choose IV hydration therapy. The choice all depends on an 
individual’s own needs: whether you overexerted yourself training for a big sports game, had a
night out with friends but ended up with a hangover the next day, or just want to give yourself 
an immunity boost. As with all medical treatments, IV hydration therapy should only be 
administered by trained professionals. This process is meant to be safe and should be 
considered alongside other efforts such as exercise and good nutrition.
