Mega-Vitamin C

Everyone knows that vitamin C is good for immunity. We take it to fight off colds and avoid diseases like scurvy, among other things. What you might not know is that recent research suggests a link between vitamin C and alleviating certain types of pain and inflammation. It seems that vitamin C has analgesic (pain relieving) properties that could have indications for patients suffering from cancer, orthopedic issues, viruses, and more.

 

Whether you’re a dedicated trail runner dealing with pain and inflammation related to intense activity, you’re living with a chronic pain condition like IBS or rheumatoid arthritis, or you’re prone to getting seasonal cold and flu bugs that put you out of commission, it’s time to consider the benefits to be gained when you regularly subscribe to high-dose vitamin C infusions. Our Mega-Vitamin C Boost is packed with 25g of vitamin C to maintain a strong and healthy immune system, along with extras like B vitamins (B1, B2, B3, B5, and B6), calcium, magnesium, and potassium to keep your body balanced and functioning at its peak.

 

Vitamin C has long been known as a cold-buster, but there’s so much more to love about this incredible nutrient. If you’re looking to get a head start on defending your body against the onslaught of pathogens that proliferate during the colder months, a monthly Mega-Vitamin C boost will do the trick. However, you could also enjoy anti-inflammatory and analgesic benefits, according to mounting evidence in scientific studies. For those suffering acute or chronic pain symptoms, this is an excellent supplement to other treatments that could even serve to reduce your reliance on prescription painkillers.

IV Ingredients

Vitamins (Water Soluble)


Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid)

Vitamin C is a powerhouse, contributing to cardiovascular health, protecting against skin damage and signs of aging. This essential vitamin fights free radicals, and is also needed for the growth, development, repair, and overall health of literally every tissue in the body. Most adults have trouble getting adequate vitamin C from diet, which is why supplemental treatments are so important.

Vitamin B-Complex (B1,B2,B3)

Also called thiamine, vitamin B1 plays a pivotal role in turning the food you eat into energy. Regular alcohol consumption significantly depletes B1. Also known as riboflavin, vitamin B2 contributes to healthy skin, intestinal lining, and blood cells. Its main function is helping the body to break down carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. Whether you’re dealing with acne, poor immune function, or low energy, getting enough vitamin B2 can lead to improvements. Also referred to as niacin, vitamin B3 works with other B complex vitamins to transform food into energy. A B3 deficiency can lead to the onset of pellagra, a condition characterized by gastrointestinal issues and mental difficulties, including dementia.

Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic Acid)

B5 processes fatty acids. B5 also speeds wound healing, lowers blood cholesterol and slows the greying of hair. B5 deficiency has been implicated in the onset of headache, fatigue, insomnia, intestinal disturbances, and numbness and tingling of their hands and feet, as well as adrenal dysfunction and reduced exercise tolerance.

Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine)

This essential micronutrient, when paired with other B vitamins, works to turn the food you eat into energy. It contributes to cell health, produces several neurotransmitters in the brain, and helps your body to absorb another needed vitamin: B12.
