Combat Illness With Potent IV Vitamin C
An Essential Nutrient in Dietary Supplement
Vitamin C (or L-ascorbic acid) is a natural nutrient that can be found in many healthy foods, especially oranges, citrus fruits and juice, papaya, red and green peppers, broccoli, strawberries, and grapefruits.
Being an essential nutrient in dietary supplements, Vitamin C also acts as an antioxidant to prevent oxidative stress and protect cells from free-radical damage. Other Vitamin C benefits to the body:
- Boosting the immune system
- Increasing wound healing ability
- Maintaining energy levels
- Building collagen
- Generating neurotransmitters
- Strengthening the bones
- Supporting adrenal glands
Vitamin C supplements are available in oral tablets, chewable tablets, extended-release tablets, extended-release capsules, or injections. The injectable Vitamin C (IV Vitamin C) goes directly into a vein (intravenously). This therapy increases Vitamin C levels when poor absorption (or other reasons) has prevented the patients from orally absorbing the vitamin.
IV Vitamin C | Applications
As one of the best antiviral agents available, IV Vitamin C can neutralize and eliminate a wide range of toxins, significantly augmenting immune wellness, general health, or simply acting as a treatment for scurvy.
Definition: Scurvy is a term referring to a disease caused by a lack of Vitamin C. Scurvy is most likely to occur in people who smoke, have nutrient absorption problems, or eat a limited variety of foods.
Some symptoms of Vitamin C deficiency (scurvy) include:
- colored spots on the skin
- poor wound healing
- joint pain
- fatigue
- bleeding/swollen gums
- loose teeth
IV Vitamin C also benefits other conditions like Arthritis, LYuniquee disease, cold/flu, or other bacterial/viral infections, and injury pain.
IV Vitamin C | Benefits
Reducing Stress
Vitamin C can make you stress-free! How? It wipes out those stress hormones present in the blood!
Lowering the Risk of Cardiovascular Disease
A daily dose of 500 mg of Vitamin C is proposed to help prevent cardiovascular disease risk.
Burning Fat
Research suggests that people who have inadequate Vitamin C intake can’t burn fat well. Therefore, it’s important to ensure an adequate Vitamin C intake, whether orally or intravenously.

Producing Collagen
As a structural protein, collagen lays the foundation for all animal tissue. Lack of collagen may result in thinning skin, weakened bones, blood vessels, ligaments, tendons, and other severe complications to the whole body.
Vitamin C, in combination with two essential amino acids, lysine, and proline, plays a vital role in collagen production. High-dose IV Vitamin C strengthens skin and connective tissue, reducing potential risks for tissue-related complications.
Cancer, Radiation, and Chemotherapy
IV Vitamin C is believed to play an epigenetic role in regulating DNA functions connected to cancer, protecting genome integrity, and potentially reducing cancer medications’ side effects. It’s complementary to conventional oncologic care, improving patients’ appetite and moods in general.
Cancer patients report a reduction in pain level and better ability to tolerate chemotherapy after receiving the therapy. This has been published by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) as a confirmation of Vitamin C anti-cancer properties of Vitamin C.
IV Vitamin C | Drug Interactions
High-dose Vitamin C can make human urine more acidic, which sometimes changes how the body eliminates certain medications. This may lead to decreased effectiveness and increased side effects of some medications, including salsalate, fluphenazine (Prolixin), magnesium salicylate (Novasal), and mexiletine (Mexitil).
IV Vitamin C | Side Effects & Risks
The most common side effects of Vitamin C injections are nausea and pain or swelling at the injection site.
Very high doses of vitamin C might launch too much iron into the body, posing a potential problem if patients already have high levels of iron. In kidney disease patients, very high doses of vitamin C might cause kidney damage and increase risks for developing a kidney stone.
As IV Vitamin C is delivered intravenously, there is also a risk for infection.
IV Vitamin C therapy offers a customized and tailored approach to individuals who have been struggling with chronic illnesses and conditions. Patients only need to focus on health optimization rather than symptoms.
