While this IV therapy is gaining popularity in certain wellness circles, it's important to approach it with caution. The scientific evidence supporting its use for general wellness is limited. Individuals considering this therapy should consult with qualified healthcare providers to discuss potential benefits, risks, and alternatives based on their specific health status and goals.

The fluids administered are very effective in restoring hydration levels, but the fluids themselves will be passed through the body within several hours. However, the minerals, vitamins, and other nutrients that are included in IV hydration therapies will be able to provide their respective benefits for anywhere from days, weeks, to even months. The longevity of the treatments heavily depends on what your body needs and if those nutrients are included in the infusion, as those nutrients will provide much longer noticeable results as their levels are heightened.
IV hydration can replenish fluids and nutrients much faster than if you were to drink or eat the same ingredients as the fluids are administered directly into the bloodstream. When we consume vitamins and minerals, it takes a while for the nutrients to be absorbed naturally through our digestive system, and only a percentage of the nutrients will be able to be absorbed. Since IV hydration allows for direct absorption of these essential nutrients, it is a fantastic supplemental option for those who are unable to absorb those nutrients through diet alone. Digestive health conditions such as Crohn’s disease, short bowel syndrome, Celiac disease, or colon cancer benefit heavily from IV hydration and therapies due to the body’s inability to properly digest and absorb nutrients. The IV hydration therapies can easily be customized to include the nutrients that each patient may be lacking or to provide the specific benefits that the patient wants. These potential benefits include increased energy levels, optimized metabolism, a strengthened immune system, faster recovery following exercise or sports, and healthier skin and hair. Some IV therapies are specifically designed to support a treatment plan for specific health conditions, including cardiovascular health, or as part of a weight loss program.
All of the ingredients that are included in IV hydration are healthy and beneficial to patients, often just including essential vitamins and minerals that we need plenty of to be healthy. The only potential risk involved is through the IV administration process, which carries a very low risk of infection, making it a very safe and low-risk treatment. The vitamins and minerals included in the IV hydration treatments are very healthy nutrients that are supplied in healthy levels, so there are no risks associated with the ingredients themselves unless in the rare case, the patient has an allergy to something.
IV hydration provides patients with essential vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients that they may be missing from their diet. Different ingredients can be included in the IV hydration treatment depending on the specific needs of each patient, with the primary goal of restoring proper levels of hydration. When you are engaging in strenuous physical activity, it’s not just water that needs to be replenished to prevent dehydration, many different minerals and vitamins are required for a fast and effective recovery. IV hydration provides those nutrients and the necessary fluids back into the body very efficiently, avoiding digestive problems or dietary restrictions that are common when drinking copious amounts of sports drinks or other types of hydrating beverages. These treatments can also very easily be customized to include the ingredients that would be most beneficial for each patient, minimizing the administration of nutrients that would just be going to waste in those who lack different nutrients.
