Vitamin 101 - Everything you want to know and MORE...

• Alpha Lipoic Acid - Alpha lipoic acid (ALA) is a fatty acid that occurs naturally in the body. ALA is often referred to as the “universal antioxidant.” It supports vital functions at the cellular level, such as producing energy and protecting your cells from damage. The body has the ability to produce ALA. It is also found in dietary sources, such as red meat, organ meat (liver, heart, kidney, etc.), broccoli, tomatoes, spinach, brussels sprouts, and yeast. Once administered, ALA is readily absorbed and distributed throughout all major organs. 

• Amino Blend -Amino acids are the natural compounds that are used as building blocks by the body to create proteins. Amino acids, and the proteins that are made from them, are crucial to helping the body break down food, repair body tissue, grow, and perform many other bodily functions. They are found in foods such as meats, fish, and soybeans. Some people also use amino acid supplements to boost athletic performance or improve their mood. Amino acids are categorized into three groups: essential, nonessential, and conditional. Essential amino acids cannot be made within the body and must come from external sources, such as diet or supplements. Nonessential amino acids are produced within the body, and conditional amino acids are usually produced within the body. During periods of stress, illness, or injury the body may not be able to create enough of these, and they become essential amino acids that require external supplementation. 

• Arginine - Arginine, also known as L-arginine, is an amino acid. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. Arginine is produced naturally in the body. It is also found in foods such as red meat, poultry, fish, dairy products, eggs, and seeds of all types. Arginine helps to dilate or open, blood vessels. It works by converting into nitric oxide in the body. Nitric oxide then dilates the blood vessels by relaxing the muscles that constrict them. Arginine is produced pharmaceutically and given as a supplement for many conditions. It can stimulate the release of insulin, growth hormone (helps increase muscle mass and reduce the amount of fat in the body), and other substances. 

• Ascorbic Acid - Ascorbic acid, also known as vitamin C, is an antioxidant that plays an important role in the body: it protects the body’s cells from damage. It is also necessary to maintain the health of skin, teeth, bone, cartilage, and blood vessels. Studies have shown that it may help brain function in people with cognitive impairments such as Alzheimer's disease and dementia. Without the proper amount of ascorbic acid, people are at risk for cardiovascular illness, compromised immune systems, premature aging, increased stress response, and low energy. Ascorbic acid is found in foods such as citrus fruits, kiwi, broccoli, tomatoes, leafy vegetables, potatoes, brussels sprouts, raw bell peppers, and strawberries. Most people get sufficient ascorbic acid through their diet. Others may not be able to absorb enough through diet or ingestible supplements. In these cases, injections may be prescribed. 

• Biotin - Biotin, also known as B7, is a water-soluble vitamin found in foods such as eggs, milk, and bananas. This vitamin is important for overall health, and plays a role in cell growth, carbohydrate metabolism, and fatty acid synthesis. Biotin is involved in a wide range of metabolic processes primarily related to the utilization of fats, carbohydrates, and amino acids. It also influences cell growth and may help in maintaining blood sugar levels. Biotin is commonly supplemented for multiple conditions, such as hair loss, brittle nails, and nerve damage. Biotin is also thought to reduce inflammation, improve cognitive function, and increase HDL (good) cholesterol and decrease LDL (bad) cholesterol. 

• Calcium Chloride - Calcium chloride helps to regulate the levels of other minerals in the body. This makes it an important part of keeping the body functioning properly. Calcium is the fifth most abundant element in the body, and it is the major component of your bones. Calcium is essential to the function of our nervous and muscular systems, the coagulation of blood, and for normal contractility of the heart. Calcium also affects the secretory activity of endocrine and exocrine glands. In water, calcium chloride breaks down into calcium and chloride ions. These ions are regular components of body fluids and depend on other physiological mechanisms to maintain the balance from one’s intake and output. Approximately 80% of body calcium gets excreted in the feces as insoluble salts, and the remaining 20% is excreted through the urine. 

• Carnitine - Carnitine is found in nearly all cells of the body and plays a critical role in the production of energy. It transports long-chain fatty acids into the mitochondria so they can be oxidized, or burned, to produce energy. Carnitine also transports toxic compounds out of the cellular organelles, preventing any accumulation. Given these functions, carnitine is concentrated in tissues that utilize fatty acids as fuel, like skeletal and cardiac muscles. For most people, the body makes enough carnitine. However, some people have genetic or medical conditions that prevent their bodies from meeting the necessary amount. This is when oral or injected supplementation is essential. Carnitine occurs in two forms: D-carnitine and L-carnitine. They are isomers (or mirror images) of each other. L-carnitine is the active form found in the body that transports fat to cells to be used as fuel in metabolic processes. D-carnitine does not occur naturally in humans. L-carnitine is synthesized in the brain, liver, and kidneys from the amino acids methionine and lysine and is critical to heart and brain function, muscle movement, and several other body processes. Insufficient carnitine can lead to problems in the liver, heart, and muscles. 

• Cyanocobalamin - Cyanocobalamin is a man-made form of vitamin B12. It is used to prevent and treat low blood levels of this vitamin. Vitamin B12 helps to utilize fats and carbohydrates for energy and make new proteins. Vitamin B12 is important in the maintenance of our metabolism, blood cells, and nerve function. Most people get enough vitamin B12 in their diet, but some need supplementation. Certain health conditions such as intestinal or stomach problems, poor nutrition, cancer, HIV, pregnancy, old age, veganism, and alcoholism can cause vitamin B12 deficiency. Low levels of vitamin B12 can lead to fatigue and anemia in milder cases. More serous B12 deficiencies have the potential to impair heart and neurological function, leading to a wide range of serous symptoms, including but not limited to tinnitus, severe joint pain, memory problems, depression, anxiety, poor muscle function, ataxia, and changes in reflexes. Infertility can also occur in individuals with insufficient B12. Early intervention and treatment of B12 deficiencies are key to maintaining healthy bodily function. 

• Dexpanthenol  - Dexpanthenol is a derivative of pantothenic acid, also known as Vitamin B5. It's found in most living cells and, as a result, a wide range of foods. Bacteria living in the gut are also able to synthesize pantothenic acid, but not in large enough quantities to meet dietary needs. Dexpanthenol acts as a precursor of coenzyme A, which plays a major role in the synthesis and oxidation of fatty acids. Coenzyme A is necessary for acetylation reactions and is key to the synthesis of acetylcholine. Acetylcholine is a neurohumoral transmitter active in the parasympathetic nervous system that maintains the normal functions of the intestine. A decrease in acetylcholine levels can lead to decreased peristalsis or even adynamic ileus in extreme cases, impairing the body's gastrointestinal processes. When prescribed appropriately, dexpanthenol provides the body with the building blocks it needs to produce coenzyme A and adequate amounts of acetylcholine, allowing us to keep the intestines functioning normally. The exact pharmacological mode of action of the dexpanthenol is still unknown. 

• Glutamine - Glutamine is an amino acid. Amino acids play many roles within the body. Their main purpose is to serve as building blocks for proteins. Glutamine is the most abundant free amino acid in the body. It is produced in the muscles and distributed via the bloodstream. Glutamine provides the necessary nitrogen and carbon to fuel a variety of cell processes. It is also essential to the production of some amino acids and glucose. Because of this, glutamine plays a key role in fueling the body’s natural healing processes and healthy organ function. The body can usually synthesize sufficient amounts of glutamine, but in some instances of stress, such as after a traumatic injury or illness, the body's demand for glutamine increases and can outpace the amount the muscles can produce on their own. Additional glutamine can be obtained from the diet. Glutamine is found in protein-rich sources such as beef, chicken, fish, dairy products, eggs, beans, beets, cabbage, spinach, carrots, parsley, vegetable juices, wheat, papaya, Brussels sprouts, celery, kale and fermented foods like miso. Maintaining adequate levels of glutamine is critical to maintaining a healthy immune system and supporting the body's ability to heal itself. 

• Glutathione - L-Glutathione, or simply glutathione, is a powerful antioxidant comprised of amino acids cysteine, glycine, and glutamic acid. Glutathione has many functions. It is vital to mitochondrial function and necessary to produce DNA. Its ability to cross the blood-brain barrier means it plays an important role in removing toxins, such as mercury, from the brain and other cells. It is key in supporting immune function, metabolism, forming sperm cells, tissue building and repair, and helping with certain enzyme functions. As a powerful antioxidant, it may help fight the effects of free radicals, which cause oxidative stress, damage healthy cells, and contribute to aging and certain degenerative illnesses. Unlike most antioxidants, glutathione can be made in the human liver. Glutathione can be found in every cell of the human body. It is also found in many foods, including spinach and avocados, but is poorly absorbed by the body when consumed orally. Supplements that can support glutathione production include curcumin, N-acetylcysteine, selenium, silymarin, vitamin C, and Vitamin E. Glutathione levels in the body naturally decline as we age, but can also be reduced by factors like stress, malnutrition, and environmental toxins. 

• Hydroxocobalamin - Hydroxocobalamin, also known as vitamin B12, is a vitamin found in food and is also used as a dietary supplement. Vitamin B12 helps to utilize fats and carbohydrates for energy and make new proteins. Vitamin B12 is important in the maintenance of our metabolism, blood cells, and nerve function. Most people get enough vitamin B12 in their diet, but some need supplementation. Certain health conditions such as intestinal or stomach problems, poor nutrition, cancer, HIV, pregnancy, old age, veganism, and alcoholism can cause vitamin B12 deficiency. Low levels of vitamin B12 can lead to fatigue and anemia in milder cases. More serous B12 deficiencies have the potential to impair heart and neurological function, leading to a wide range of serous symptoms, including but not limited to tinnitus, severe joint pain, memory problems, depression, anxiety, poor muscle function, ataxia, and changes in reflexes. Infertility can also occur in individuals with insufficient B12. Early intervention and treatment of B12 deficiencies are key to maintaining healthy bodily function. 

• Lysine - Lysine is one of the nine essential amino acids in the human body, which act as the building blocks of proteins. Lysine is necessary to healthy growth and plays an essential role in the production of carnitine, which is critical to several processes in the human body, including healthy heart and brain function. Since the body cannot synthesize lysine, adequate levels of the amino acid must be obtained from dietary sources and supplementation. Our body's main source of lysine is a well-balanced diet. Good dietary sources of lysine are protein-rich foods such as eggs, meat (specifically red meat, lamb, pork, and poultry), soy, beans, peas, cheese (particularly Parmesan), and certain fish (such as cod and sardines). Lysine may be used for athletic performance, symptoms of diabetes, managing symptoms of the herpes virus (cold sores), and more. Lysine is taken orally, topically, or intravenously. According to research by Knopf et al1, there is evidence that lysine, when administered intravenously, can significantly increase the amount of circulating of growth hormones. This has led to athletes using lysine as a means of promoting muscle growth while training. L-lysine also helps the body to absorb calcium. Because of this, it is also used in the treatment of osteoporosis. 

• Magnesium Chloride - Magnesium chloride provides magnesium, a mineral that is important in maintaining the function of our nerves, cells, bones, muscles, and heart. It plays an integral role in the synthesis of energy within cells, creating DNA, and supporting bone density. Most people get enough magnesium through their diet, but sometimes supplementation is necessary. Foods that are high in fiber generally contain high amounts of magnesium as well. These foods include nuts, dark chocolate, avocados, fatty fish, seeds, and whole grains. Magnesium salts are administered in the case of magnesium deficiency; Magnesium chloride is one of the most commonly magnesium salts used medically. Magnesium deficiency is most common in women, African Americans, and the elderly. Conditions such as osteoporosis, high blood pressure, arteriosclerosis, diabetes, and stroke have been linked to low blood levels of magnesium. Other situations, such as alcoholism, poor diet, poorly controlled diabetes, diuretic medications also contribute to magnesium deficiency requiring treatment. 

• Methylcobalamin (B12) - Methylcobalamin is an active form of Vitamin B12. Vitamin B12 helps to utilize fats and carbohydrates for energy and make new proteins. Vitamin B12 is important in the maintenance of our metabolism, blood cells, and nerve function. Most people get enough vitamin B12 in their diet, but some need supplementation. Certain health conditions such as intestinal or stomach problems, poor nutrition, cancer, HIV, pregnancy, old age, veganism, and alcoholism can cause vitamin B12 deficiency. Low levels of vitamin B12 can lead to fatigue and anemia in milder cases. More serous B12 deficiencies have the potential to impair heart and neurological function, leading to a wide range of serous symptoms, including but not limited to tinnitus, severe joint pain, memory problems, depression, anxiety, poor muscle function, ataxia, and changes in reflexes. Infertility can also occur in individuals with insufficient B12. Early intervention and treatment of B12 deficiencies are key to maintaining healthy bodily function. 

• Pyridoxine - Pyridoxine, also known as Vitamin B6, is important in maintaining the health of our nerves, skin, and red blood cells. It is found in foods such as meat, poultry, bananas, avocados, nuts, and whole grains. Most people acquire the necessary amount of vitamin B6 in their normal diet. However, some conditions and medications may cause some people to become deficient. Adequate levels of vitamin B6 are necessary to produce neurotransmitters like serotonin, dopamine and GABA, meaning it plays an important role in regulating our mood. Supplementing with B6 has been studied as a potential treatment for mood disorders, depression and PMS. B6 is used in the production of hemoglobin, and it may aid in reducing inflammation throughout the body. 

• Taurine - L-Taurine, otherwise known as taurine, is a conditionally essential amino acid. Unlike most amino acids, taurine doesn’t play a role in building proteins. It helps to maintain proper hydration and electrolyte and mineral balance in your cells supporting the functions of the digestive, nervous and immune systems. There are many conditions that may use taurine for treatment, including congestive heart failure, high blood pressure, hepatitis, high cholesterol, and cystic fibrosis. Taurine is also frequently used for its antioxidant properties to prevent cell-damaging side effects of chemotherapy. 

• Vitamin D3- Vitamin D is crucial to the building and maintenance of healthy bones and teeth. Calcium, the primary component of bone, is only properly absorbed by your body when vitamin D is present. Vitamin D is created within the body when direct sunlight converts a chemical in your skin into an active form of the vitamin. There are not many foods that contain vitamin D, but you can find it in fortified milk, fortified cereals, and fatty fish, like salmon, mackerel, and sardines. Unfortunately, most people do not get the necessary amount of vitamin D. Therefore, supplementation is needed. Vitamin D3 is the perfect supplement as it is the natural form of vitamin D that your body makes from sunlight. Vitamin D can come in several forms. The two major forms are vitamin D2 (ergocalciferol) and vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol). The recommended form of vitamin D for supplementation is cholecalciferol. Cholecalciferol is metabolized to its active form, calcitriol, which increases the body's absorption of calcium and phosphorus. Calcitriol may play a role in the immune system and may inhibit cancer growth and stimulate cell differentiation. Receiving vitamin D3 injections can treat and prevent the symptoms of vitamin D deficiency, including fatigue and bone pain. Vitamin D deficiency has been associated with an increased risk of death from cardiovascular disease, cognitive impairment in the elderly, severe childhood asthma and cancer.

• Zinc Sulfate - An essential mineral that contributes to immune defense by its role in the development and function of many immune processes. Supplementing with this mineral may help combat infections and aid wound healing.

Post IV Information

After an IV therapy, it is usually a good idea to:

• Avoid alcohol for a while to allow your liver to recover from the toxin load from your cells

• Drinks lots of water to flush things out

• If you have diarrhea like symptoms, do not take anti-diarrheal but let the body dispose of as much poo as it needs to

• If you have constipation type symptoms, take high dose oral vitamin C and magnesium which can cause loose motion (a good thing here)

• Try a colonic if you’re up for it

• Take a magnesium salt bath. The magnesium can help draw out more toxins from your skin, speeding up the process of toxin extraction.

• If you are familiar with intermittent fasting, it’s a good thing to try to let your digestive system take a break. Alternatively, consider going on a bone broth day. The fat and protein in the broth should keep you satiated. If you would like to do a juice fast instead, do include lots of vegetables in it as a fruit only juice can make you feel worse (due to its effect on insulin). Add some coconut oil to it to slow down absorption of glucose.

Most people feel very good after Iv therapies in general. However, a few patients do feel worse after a session. 

Symptoms can include:

• Headache 

• General unwellness 

• Diarrhea or constipation 

• Sinus congestion 

• Flu-like symptoms Body aches 

Depending on the person this can naturally be expected negative-like symptoms that may arise from IV therapies that yield bad outcomes can be summarized as follows: 

• They got dumped; their cells dumped stored wastes and toxins into the blood stream to be excreted via urine, feces or sweat. 

• Occasionally, the innate metabolic pathways are stagnant or are already overworked. In this instance, the symptoms can also feel bad 

• Their detox organs are being overworked. These are your liver, skin, lymphatic system, kidney, colon and lungs. 

• Their detox capacity is good or has improved. 

The first set of symptoms and even some of the second batch described above are not bad, they are natural, although not comfortable to go through. At the very least, it means that stored toxins are being released and cells are now cleaner. There are a few things that can be done to decrease the effects of this happening. These were discussed in the post Iv information. 

Injectables

• Semaglutide is a medication that has emerged as a potentially effective option for weight loss in individuals who meet specific criteria. This is because it reduces appetite, slows down the emptying of the stomach, and increases feelings of fullness. It has shown promising results and offers an approach to weight management by influencing appetite and metabolism. Additionally, a holistic approach to weight management, including diet and exercise, should be considered alongside medication when seeking sustainable weight loss. Semaglutide is administered once a week by injection.

• Tirzepatide is a weekly injection that can lower blood sugar levels and promote weight loss. It works by activating GLP-1 receptors and reducing the effects of GIP, which can improve insulin sensitivity. Tirzepatide was shown to be safe and effective in reducing A1C levels by up to 2.4% and causing weight loss of up to 25%. This is because it reduces appetite, slows down the emptying of the stomach, and increases feelings of fullness. It has shown promising results and offers an approach to weight management by influencing appetite and metabolism.
