What is a Myers Cocktail IV Drip?

Myers Cocktail is an effective IV Vitamin therapy that boosts energy, enhances immunity and improves overall well-being.

Myers Cocktail IV often has the following ingredients:

1. Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid): Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that helps to strengthen your immune system and helps in collagen production.

2. B Vitamins (B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B12): Vitamin B complex helps convert food into energy, improve brain function and mood, and also helps to produce more blood.

3. Magnesium: Magnesium helps relax your muscles, promote a healthy heart, and reduce muscle cramps or tension.

4. Calcium: Calcium supports bone health, relaxes your muscles, and improves your heart function.

P.S.: Some clinics may customize the Myers Cocktail with additional minerals or nutrients (like zinc, selenium, or amino acids) depending on your specific needs.

Now… What Are Glutathione Injections & IV Drips?

Glutathione IV drips or injections deliver glutathione directly into your system. Glutathione is an antioxidant that helps your liver remove waste in the body, repair body cells, strengthen immunity, and maintain even skin tone. 

It’s usually given as a quick IV (intravenous) push or an IM (intramuscular) shot.

“Why would anyone need Glutathione injections or IV drips?”

Well; stress, illness, and even normal aging can cause your natural glutathione levels to drop. So glutathione injections and IV drips replenish what your body is losing.

They support detoxification, boost antioxidant protection, improve skin brightness; all helping your cells function at their best again.

2. Eat light and balanced meals. Opt for meals rich in vitamin C and foods high in glutathione like broccoli, spinach, bell peppers and avocados.
3. Avoid heavy meals right before your injection. This helps reduce nausea and ensures your body absorbs the nutrients more effectively.
4. Limit alcohol and caffeine. These can interfere with nutrient absorption and hydration, so it’s best to avoid them immediately after your session.
5. Stay consistent. While some effects are immediate, maximum benefits come with repeated sessions.
