IV Ingredients

Ingredient List

ALA (alpha lipoic acid) - naturally occurring fatty acid that helps breakdown carbohydrates to synthesize energy, lowers blood glucose levels, and reduces inflammation; can be used to treat diabetic neuropathy.

Amino acids - building blocks of protein; promote the building, healing, and repair of muscle tissue.

Arginine - amino acid used to make proteins and build muscle; precursor for the biosynthesis of nitric oxide (NO), an important factor in blood pressure regulation and endothelial function (the endothelium is the inner lining of the vascular system).

B5 (pantothenic acid) - water-soluble vitamin used to make coenzyme A which helps build and break down fatty acids; also important in the synthesis of red blood cells, amino acids, fatty acids, and vitamin D3.

B6 (pyridoxine) - water-soluble vitamin important for amino acid metabolism, necessary co-factor in folate cycle; influential in synthesis of neurotransmitters and essential for mental health; direct effect on immune function.

B12 (methylcobalamin) - water-soluble vitamin required to make DNA and red blood cells; involved in breakdown of homocysteine, a protein that at high levels is associated with increased risk of heart disease and stroke.

B Complex - includes vitamins B1, B2, B3, B5 and B6; essential to maintaining energy production, DNA/RNA synthesis and repair, and synthesis of neurochemicals and signaling molecules.

Biotin (B7) - water-soluble vitamin necessary for fatty acid, glucose, and amino acid metabolism; important factor in histone modifications, gene regulation, and cell signaling.

Carnitine - transports long-chain fatty acids into mitochondria to be oxidized for energy production, lowers cholesterol; also functions as an antioxidant that can neutralize free radicals.

CoQ10 - antioxidant used for cell growth and maintenance; can reduce blood pressure and improve symptoms of congestive heart failure; can decrease migraine frequency and severity; can enhance physical performance by decreasing oxidative stress and improving mitochondrial function.

Glutamine - amino acid used to make proteins and build muscle; critical fuel source for white blood cells and intestinal cells; can protect against “leaky gut” by maintaining the intestinal barrier.

Glutathione - antioxidant that prevents cellular damage from free radicals, peroxides, and heavy metals; plays a role in regulation of protein and gene expression.

Glycine - amino acid used to make proteins and build muscle; precursor to glutathione, creatine, and collagen; can improve sleep quality and cognition; enhances body’s ability to use nitric oxide

Lipo-B/MIC B12 (methionine, inositol, choline chloride, cyanocobalamin) - combination of compounds that exhibit lipotropic effects by facilitating the burning of adipose tissue; can induce weight loss when used with diet and exercise.

• Methionine - essential amino acid used to produce critical hormones and proteins such as adrenaline, melatonin, and carnitine.
• Inositol - precursor to inositol triphosphate, an essential second messenger for hormones like insulin and FSH (follicle stimulating hormone).
• Choline - produces acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter, as well as molecules essential for maintaining cell membranes.
• Cyanocobalamin (B12) - essential for cellular energy production and DNA synthesis.

L-Lysine - essential amino acid used to make proteins and build muscle; plays essential role in production of carnitine which is responsible for converting fatty acids into energy and helping lower cholesterol; helps collagen production. It has also been shown to interfere with viral replication potentially leading to reduced viral infection along with reduced cold sores.

Magnesium - mineral that helps regulate over 400 biochemical reactions including protein synthesis, muscle and nerve function, blood glucose control, and blood pressure regulation; can also prevent and alleviate acute symptoms of tension headaches and migraines, especially migraine with aura.

NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) - coenzyme and signaling molecule required for cellular respiration, synthesis of cholesterol and nucleic acids, elongation of fatty acids, and regeneration of glutathione; replacement therapy can encourage optimal mitochondrial function, genomic stability, neuroprotection, and longevity.

Taurine - amino acid essential for maintaining proper hydration and electrolyte balance, forming bile salts, regulating intracellular calcium, supporting central nervous system function, and regulating immune system health.

Vitamin C - water-soluble vitamin that functions as a powerful antioxidant that can neutralize free radicals; plays a role in infection control and wound healing by stimulating the activity of white blood cells; improves the absorption of non-heme iron.

Vitamin D3 - fat-soluble vitamin required for the absorption of calcium and phosphate; strengthens bone and muscle, supports immune system function, improves mood, reduces inflammation, and decreases risk of heart failure.

Zinc - trace mineral required for DNA synthesis, cell growth, protein synthesis, wound healing, and immune system function.
