Benefits of IV Therapy Over Oral Supplements

At Pearl Recovery Retreat and Wellness, we offer our guests a wide variety of amenities and therapies to help expedite their recovery and make them feel more comfortable. One such offering is IV therapy. IV therapy is a great way to quickly give you the nutrients you need that will help you heal and feel better. One common question our patients ask us is why they can’t just take oral supplements instead, or if IV therapy is really a better option. Today in the Pearl Recovery blog, we’ll discuss why oral supplements aren’t as effective for your surgery recovery.

Absorption

First, let’s talk about the biggest and most important reason that IV therapy is more effective. When you get your nutrients through an IV, you’re guaranteeing 100% absorption of those nutrients. Sure, you can get nutrients from food and oral supplements, but your body isn’t going to reap all the nutrients possible out of those sources. Going through the process of digestion causes a lot of those nutrients to be lost. Also, some people have conditions that don’t allow them to fully absorb the nutrients from their food and supplements. IV therapy is the solution to all of this.

Plus, the effects are immediate. Since they’re getting directly introduced to your bloodstream, you know that the vitamins and nutrients are absorbed. With supplements, you won’t be feeling the effects for awhile, since they need to be absorbed and build up in your system. Furthermore, you can control the amount, meaning you can give someone exactly what they need. This is especially important for surgery recovery when your body is need of nutrients and vitamins more than ever.

Customized Nutrients

With oral supplements, you’re limited with your options. Sure, you can buy all the different vitamins you need, but why do that when you can get them all in one IV therapy formula. With IV therapy, we can create a healing formula that contains all the vitamins your body needs to heal, instead of you taking ten different oral supplements to try and get those same vitamins.
