IV nutrition can offer a “vitality” infusion for people who are depleted and deficient. While getting proper vitamins and nutrients through nutrition is ideal, there are times when stress, illness, digestive disorders and malabsorption issues leave us depleted of key vitamins and minerals. An IV drip can help us to “catch up” for renewal, restoration, healing and energy. Functional and Metabolic Medicine of Colorado is proud to offer IV nutrition therapy for our clients. In addition to providing IV support, we can also help you to identify low vitamin levels.


What Are the Benefits of IV Nutrition?

IV infusions allow you to get high dosages of key vitamins using a delivery system with optimal bioavailability. Vitamins and nutrients can be absorbed more effectively using IV drips because they enter the bloodstream instead of passing through the digestive system. IV drips are routinely used to assist with:

  • Stress.
  • Fatigue.
  • Athletic recovery.
  • Mood.
  • Immune function.
  • Weight loss.
  • Detoxification.
  • Hangover recovery.
  • Illness recovery.
  • Tissue repair.
  • Malabsorption issues.
  • Inflammation.
  • Pain.
  • Headaches.
  • Dehydration.

Many people simply find that IV therapy helps them to stay “on top of their game” by providing energy. Others use IV boosts to prevent illness during cold seasons. IV vitamin therapy is especially popular among people who travel frequently for work, have busy schedules or live fast-paced lives that require recovery. Our drips can be completed during simple in-office visits that take about 45 minutes. We can also help you to use IV drips as part of a larger plan for weight loss, hormone balancing or nutritional supplementation.


What to Expect When Getting IV Therapy

The first step in seeking IV therapy from a functional medicine doctor in Colorado is deciding which drip is the optimal choice based on your health needs. A tailored drip can help you to fortify your body for energy, illness prevention, weight loss and more. Some of the options offered for our Denver-area patients at Functional and Metabolic Medicine of Colorado include:

  • Bolt Vitamin B Complex: B1 (thiamine), B2 (riboflavin), B3 (niacin), B5 (pantothenic acid), B6 (pyridoxine), B7 (biotin) B9

Our drips are designed to create rejuvenation and healing at the cellular level. Many of our clients find that drips play integral roles in better sleep, better work performance and better moods. While these treatments can be used regularly as part of a total wellness plan for operating at peak mental and physical performance, it’s also fine to simply use IV drips on an as-needed basis whenever you feel depleted.
