The Phoenix IV

IVs bypass the digestive system as the nutrients are delivered directly into the bloodstream. This immediate “boost” of vitamins and minerals increases energy and improves your overall well being.

When recovering from a minor illness, there are three main components to helping you recover faster:

1. Rehydrate your body. Drinking lots of water will help you recover quicker, but this can be difficult, especially if you are nauseated, or lack the energy to drink an adequate amount. 
2. Detox. You may have gotten ill from the food you ate or had too much to drink, so your body needs to detoxify so you can recover quicker. 
3. Restore the nutrients. When you drink, nutrients are lost and will inevitably cause you to feel fatigued and unwell. Restoring the nutrients will help boost your energy levels and get you feeling back to normal. 

You may not have realized that drinking alcohol causes nutrient loss. That is because alcohol use inhibits the absorption and use of thiamin (vitamin B1), folic acid and zinc. Alcohol use also hinders your metabolism, endurance, memory and retention. In addition, it affects your sleep cycle, which is one of the main reasons you wake up feeling worse than when you went to bed. 

IV fluids hydrate you faster than drinking water. Drinking water is great, but the water is absorbed in your lower gastrointestinal tract, versus directly into your bloodstream with an IV, and can take several hours before your body begins to benefit from the hydration. In fact, scientific studies show that it could take up to two hours for your body to absorb about two cups of water. With The Phoenix IV therapy, the benefits are immediately noticed as the nutrients quickly absorb into the bloodstream to counteract the effects of minor illnesses.
