Boosters
B12
B12 can be given IM (intramuscularly) or IV (intravenously). We use a methylcobalamin or hydroxycobalamin form to ensure optimal cellular absorption and bioavailability. Folate is often given with the IM injection. B12 is involved in red blood cell production, metabolic and neurological processes and as such can be given to help improve energy, mood and reduce neuropathies.
B6
B6 (pyridoxine) can be given IM (intramuscularly) or subcutaneously to promote metabolism and weight loss. It is typically given in combination with B12. This can work really well in conjunction with a dietary and exercise program.
Vitamin D
Statistics indicate that 60-70% of the Canadian population have insufficient Vitamin D levels. Vitamin D is essential for your bone health, immune function, mood stability, hormone balance and can prevent chronic illness. Vitamin D can be given IM (intramuscularly) in high doses to rapidly increase and sustain your levels. This can be given as a single injection before the fall to prevent the common cold or flu and prevent seasonal affective disorder in the winter.
Glutathione
Glutathione is the most potent antioxidant in our body and can be depleted in your body due to poor nutrition, environmental toxins, stress and naturally with age. It is essential for liver detoxification and cellular health to combat oxidative stress. Glutathione is typically given as an IV push at the end of your IV treatment or given as an IV drip in isolation.
