Myers Cocktail IV Infusion Therapy
The Myers Cocktail may sound like a fancy drink, but it’s a far cry from any boozy beverage you’ll find at your favorite happy hour. Instead, the Myers Cocktail is a blend of minerals and vitamins delivered through IV infusion, designed to improve health and well-being on a cellular level. Included in the Myers Cocktail are magnesium, calcium, vitamin B, and vitamin C. Named after its inventor, a Baltimore physician named John Myers, the Myers Cocktail is hugely popular as an IV therapy.
What’s in a Myers Cocktail and Why is it Beneficial?
Magnesium is a mineral that’s crucial to your bodily function. Most people don’t get enough of it in their diet despite the fact that it’s essential for supporting muscles, nerves, and energy. Calcium is another important mineral, essential for bone and blood health. Calcium is also great for your teeth and helps to regulate your circulation and heart function. Both magnesium and calcium also help with sleep, which gives all the body’s systems a chance to rest and rejuvenate.
The family of B vitamins, including B12 and others, help break down and transport nutrients to cells throughout the body. Often credited with lowering stress and fatigue levels, B vitamins are critical to cellular function. Vitamin C is another well-known supplement, and it does more than aid in your body’s healing process. A powerful antioxidant, Vitamin C helps your body manage the free radicals that occur as it breaks down food or when you’re exposed to harmful UV rays.
When our bodies are depleted of these nutrients, we suffer fatigue, irritability, and a suppressed immune system. The Myers Cocktail infusion provides an immediate boost to turn these symptoms around.
Who Benefits from a Myers Cocktail IV Infusion?
The Myers Cocktail is beneficial for anyone who could use nutrient supplementation. This includes all of us who can’t always take the time we need to eat correctly or get the rest our bodies require for healthy cellular function. Whether you’re traveling, working overtime, managing a growing family, or just having a hard time making time for yourself, your busy lifestyle can lead to nutritional deficiencies.
The Myers Cocktail infusion can also benefit people with food allergies or who have sensitivities to certain foods: if you avoid certain foods, for whatever reason, your body isn’t getting the nutrients those foods provide. Unfortunately, this means that without adequate supplementation, you can become depleted in critical minerals and vitamins including magnesium, calcium, the B vitamins, and vitamin C.
Why is IV Infusion Treatment Better than Oral Supplements?
Given the abundance of oral supplements on the market, you might wonder why so many people choose IV infusion treatments instead. Until recently, IV drips were reserved for the very ill or injured. For many of us, voluntarily undergoing what’s perceived to be a medical treatment instead of just taking a few pills you bought at the local pharmacy can seem like an unnecessary hassle.
But the IV drip method is actually more efficient and more effective than oral supplementation. This is because intravenous infusion bypasses the digestive system and introduces the nutrients directly into your bloodstream instead. Digestion is a taxing process for your body, so taking in critical nutrients without digestion is more efficient. In addition to the quick and effective delivery of nutrients, the IV drip also brings usually much-needed hydration to the body.
How Often Should I Get a Myers Cocktail IV Drip?
Most people see the benefits of the Myers Cocktail IV drip when they take it one or two times per week. Others with more severe vitamin and mineral depletion, whether due to chronic conditions or lifestyle factors, may find up to three or four Myers Cocktail infusions weekly is most helpful.
The IV drip process takes about an hour to complete. This would be in addition to the time it would take to drive across town if you were receiving treatments in an office. No one has time for that, which is why Bare Bunny Aesthetics comes to you, whenever you need us to.
