IV hydration with or without vitamins are excellent for stomach problems diseases. Crohn’s disease, diverticulitis and other problematic digestion issues can benefit from the IV therapy

I have coeliac and this is the only way I’m getting vitamins

One size doesn't fit all of us. Psychology is outdated in this country.😕

What if your body gets used to IV then cannot take it naturally

[msin]

In a “nutshell” means we can’t tell you the hundreds of thousands of articles that speak of the benefits of vitamins until we patent them.

Just had one today feel great hydrated

They should patent it under the brand name Obecalp-Just a suggestion.

I used to do vitamin C IV’s in my home.. first one I did was 24 hours.. 3 and a half weeks later, I passed a full on tape worm.. (it was about the size of the length of 1 and a half pieces of fettuccine..
I looked it up and it said that antibiotics would help pass a tape worm within a month..
I truly believe had I not done the IV, I’d have ended up with a huge tape worm in me..
You can believe me or not but I did 3-4 more rounds of IV therapy over the next year and it made me feel great tbh🤷🏻‍♀️
But yeah that tape worm, made me a believer.. 🤷🏻‍♀️

[HouseOfJolene]

I am not healthy and neither is my diet i'm definitely thinking of getting one

FIRST SCIENCE SAYS IMPOSSIBLE THEN IT SAYS NEW RESEARCH SHOWS... NOt a placebo

"Wellll....I can't tell you that IV hydration/drip therapies work, but I've had several of them so don't do it because it's costly and likely not going to help you, but I do it." Mkay *facepalm*

[Czech]

Nope.Its just business.Its all placebo effect.
