What is High-dose Vitamin C IV Drip?
High-dose vitamin C IV drip is a treatment method that delivers vitamin C directly into the bloodstream, which is often difficult to obtain in sufficient amounts through diet or supplements.
This approach allows for efficient absorption of vitamin C in the body, providing various health benefits. It has strong antioxidant properties, helps boost immunity, aids in fatigue recovery, and has skin whitening and beautifying effects. Some studies have also suggested its potential as an adjunctive therapy in cancer treatment.
The required blood concentration of vitamin C varies depending on age. There is a limit to the amount of vitamin C that cells can maintain, and if the concentration exceeds a certain level, it will be excreted from the body, so it is desirable to administer vitamin C regularly to maintain the blood concentration.
