A Story Of A Drip Convert
Mary here. When my husband, John, told me that he and his friend and co-worker Dr. Nelson were thinking of opening a business to help individuals live thriving, healthy lives, I was supportive. Our family believes small, healthy habits now can prevent chronic illness later. John and Dr. Nelson both love helping people so much that it made sense that they would look for a way to do that outside of the hospital.
When John told me that they chose IV hydration therapy, however, my excitement dwindled a bit. I don’t like needles. I don’t like pain. I don’t like blood.
My experience with IVs had been isolated to the labor and delivery room when a nurse would stick a giant needle in my hand during what was already one of the most uncomfortable experiences of my life. The thought of voluntarily getting an IV? No thanks. Not for me.
It was not until I began building the website for Purifi IV that my feelings began to change.
To build the website I needed to understand IV hydration and vitamin infusion clinics. Why would anyone get IV hydration therapy? What nutrients do the IV bags have and what do those nutrients do? Why wouldn’t people just go to a vitamin store to buy a bottle of pills?
What I found amazed me.
Great hydration in general does everything from fighting brain fog to relieving pain to bolstering the immune system to supporting a healthy heart. IVs provide that great hydration and even replace electrolytes with the saline solution used in the IV bags. Also, IV hydration offers approximately 90% absorption of the nutrients. Oral vitamins only give around 30% absorption rate. Not only that, but our bodies can tolerate a much higher amount of vitamins delivered by IV than when delivered orally. Furthermore, while some oral vitamins might cause stomach upset, IV vitamin infusions do not cause the same GI symptoms. That’s because IVs deliver hydration, vitamins, minerals, and amino acids directly into the bloodstream. The blood takes that hydration and those nutrients right the the cells that need them.
The vitamins, minerals, and amino acids used in our IV cocktails are incredible, too. They support heart, brain, gut, and nerve health and more. From boosting mood to feeling more energy to better concentration and memory, these nutrients do amazing things. Unlike some prescriptions that can treat these symptoms, vitamins, minerals, and amino acids are natural.
After building the website, I had to try a drip for myself. I have been hooked ever since. I hope many people in our community will give IV hydration a chance at our clinic and feel the benefits like I did.
