What is Glutathione Intravenous Therapy?

Glutathione is the Body’s “Master Antioxidant." It is a naturally occurring compound found in plants, animals and people. An Antioxidant is the body’s natural army of defense for toxins that we encounter in the environment, or toxins that our own body produces as waste, especially during periods of stress. When we are tired or stressed, our body makes less glutathione which leads to less protection. Some have called it “rusting”, and we see that in our skin. As a result, surface and deeper damage occur, resulting in noticeable skin blemishes and skin dullness and a lackluster appearance.

Vitamin C Infusion For Skin - How Does Vitamin C Benefit Your Skin

• It helps with collagen production — Vitamin C is needed to make (synthesize) collagen along  with some amino acids. If you don’t have enough collagen, you end up with weaker blood vessels and thinner skin, which gives the skin a less healthy appearance. High doses of Vitamin C can strengthen the skin and other connective tissues (like ligaments and tendons). 

• It is a potent antioxidant - Vitamin C helps protect the collagen (which gives structure to the  underlying skin layers) and protein in the skin from damage caused by free-radicals. These are naturally occurring enemies to the skin and body, which are common in high stress states, chronic illness and infections.

• It helps with energy - Vitamin C is needed to break down your fat and convert it into energy.  Especially during periods of fatigue, receiving high dose vitamin C gives you an almost instant boost of energy which can last for up to 24 hours.

• It helps boost your immune system - For years, it has been generally accepted that Vitamin  C maintains your health by boosting your immunity. In fact, before the Polio vaccine was invented, those affected were given shots of Vitamin C every 8 hours, with some success! It is believed that once in the body, Vitamin C directly acts against viruses and bacteria. 

Glutathione and Vitamin C IV Benefits

Vitamin C helps in creating the building blocks for skin, and furthermore helps  to protect what it has created by it’s protective antioxidant role. When you combine Vitamin C with Glutathione, which is the body’s primary antioxidant for its organs (including the skin), you get an even greater effect with these therapies. This results in a brighter glowing, more radiant skin and an overall feeling of wellness.

Why Is an IV Of Vitamin C & Glutathione combined More Effective Than Taking It As An Oral Supplement?

When taken orally, the body only absorbs 18% of the Vitamin C ingested however when given through an IV or intramuscularly 100% of the Vitamin C is available to the body.
