Macular Degeneration

This IV contains a proprietary blend of vitamins and minerals directed at improving and slowing symptoms associated with macular degeneration. This IV contains ample amounts of fluids to help combat dehydration, which proves to be beneficial for eye health and longevity. The concentrated formula with potent antioxidants helps decrease stress in the body and repair broken-down collagen that comes with aging. Patients typically experience a notable change in their symptoms of macular degeneration after a series of about 10-20 weekly IVs.

What is macular degeneration? Macular degeneration is the leading cause of vision loss worldwide, and there are no presently known cures for this disease. It is caused by deterioration of the central part of the retina, called the macula. This is where the brain interprets the images that we see and sends that information back to the brain for interpretation. The macula controls our ability to read, focus, drive a car, see fine details, recognize faces, and more.

The early stages of macular degeneration do not affect the vision. As the disease progresses, the vision becomes blurred and eventually blind. With macular degeneration, people lose only central blindness, while peripheral vision remains intact.

There are two main types of macular degeneration: dry (most common) and wet. Early-onset macular degeneration is detected only by an eye examination and can be detected prior to any vision changes.

The cause of macular degeneration is unknown, but genetics, nutritional status, environment, and age all play a role.

While there is no cure for macular degeneration, optimizing your health and the health surrounding your eye can truly provide significant benefit, decrease your risk of contracting the disease, and slow the process of macular degeneration. Our IV therapies provide the hydration needed to support eye health. They are specially formulated to contain the specific vitamins and minerals that our eyes need in order to perform perfectly.

Add On Boosts

Vitamin C

Feel like you need more vitamin C? Feel symptoms of a cold or flu coming on? While our Immune Boost IV and Cold buster IVs contain enough vitamin C to really combat any infection you may be fighting off, we can add increments of 5gm of vitamin C to this IV for more of a boost. This vitamin C boost must be added prior to beginning the IV. Vitamin C will help fight off infection, improve wound healing, boost your immune system, improve skin health, speed up recovery post-operatively, and more.

Vitamin B12

Feeling low in energy and like you need a boost? B12 is already in most of our IVs. However, if you feel like you need a greater energy boost than usual, don’t hesitate to let our nurses know that you would like an extra 1mL of B12 today. This B12 boost can be added at any time during the IV.

Glutathione

2mL of this extremely potent antioxidant can be added to any IV. This is a great add-on for people who like to party, for those suffering from chronic disease or chronic pain, for patients on regular medications, and for those wanting to rid themselves of excess toxin buildup. Glutathione helps decrease inflammation in the body, helps break down fat, is anti-aging, improves sleep, improves energy, and detoxifies. It is a powerful molecule packed with a punch! This addon is typically performed as a “push” during the IV or at the end of the IV.

Trace Minerals

This is a great add-on to any of our IVs. Trace minerals are needed to optimize energy, boost your immune system and improve muscle recovery. We are often depleted of these minerals with our poor gut health and depleted soils. Trace minerals improve skin health, prevent damage from the sun’s rays, decrease muscle spasms, and slow the aging process, both inside and out. This is a great boost to add on for anyone suffering from gut issues, or recovering from a recent illness.

Extra Hydration

For just $35, you can add on an extra bag of fluids. These electrolyte-packed bags of fluid will rehydrate your cells and help you recover from illness, stress, or any other life event you are dealing with.

Toradol

This is a potent anti-inflammatory medication that can be added to some of the above IVs. This medication immediately decreases pain in the body or gets rid of headaches. The physician will first make sure you have no signs of kidney disease, or no reported personal history of kidney dysfunction prior to administering this medication.
