Nutrition

The human body requires sufficient levels of key nutrients to achieve optimal performance. Those nutrients are responsible for everything from maintaining energy levels to promoting healing. Without enough of the right nutrients, the body is left depleted and having to do what it needs to do with insufficient resources.

Nutrition therapy is intended to replenish depleted nutrients. It takes its name from the intravenous application of the desired nutrients. Receiving vitamins, minerals, etc. directly into the bloodstream bypasses the digestive tract where absorption may not always be optimal.

How It Can Help

Science has proven that good nutrition is vital to physical health. Most of us can get all the nutrients we need just from sticking to a healthy diet. When either that sort of diet is impossible or there is some underlying circumstance that is preventing adequate absorption of nutrients, nutrition therapy may be the answer.

Nutrition therapy can help improve patient lives in different ways:

• Improve Energy Levels
• Increase Infection Resistance
• Stress Reduction
• Optimal Retinal Health and Visual Acuity
• Better Cardiovascular Function
• Smoother Skin Tones

One of the most common nutrition therapies involves what is known as the Myers Cocktail. It is a treatment that combines magnesium, vitamin B, vitamin C, and other trace minerals. It is often used to treat migraines and chronic fatigue.

Good Nutrition and Healthy Living

We know that good nutrition is one of the most important factors in healthy living. That is why clinicians, nutritionists, and other experts encourage people to consume a healthy and nutritious diet as it plays a pivotal role in the overall quality of life.
