Why IV Therapy

Beyond Oral Supplements

IV Nutrient Therapy delivers vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants directly into your bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system for maximum effectiveness.

When you take vitamins orally, your body absorbs only about 20% due to digestive breakdown and metabolic processing. IV Therapy ensures 100% of the nutrients reach your cells instantly for immediate therapeutic effects. At RAAC, we don't just offer 'menu items' — we provide medical prescriptions tailored to your body's specific deficiencies and health goals. Dr. Jiang personally assesses your needs and customizes each infusion for optimal results.

100% Bioavailability

Direct bloodstream delivery ensures complete absorption — far superior to the 20% from oral supplements.

High-Dose Potency

Achieve therapeutic doses (like Vitamin C) that would cause GI upset if taken orally.

Immediate Results

Feel the effects within hours as nutrients bypass digestion and reach cells directly.

Beyond Oral Supplements
The Science

How IV Therapy Works

Understanding the science behind IV nutrient delivery reveals why it's the most effective method for restoring cellular health and optimizing body function.

Direct Cellular Delivery

Nutrients enter the bloodstream immediately and are distributed to cells throughout the body within minutes.

Bypasses GI Tract

Avoids digestive breakdown, ensuring complete nutrient integrity and eliminating stomach upset from high doses.

Therapeutic Concentrations

Achieves blood levels of vitamins and minerals impossible through oral supplementation alone.

Rapid Hydration

Saline base provides immediate hydration at the cellular level, faster than drinking water.

FAQ

Common Questions

How long does an IV therapy session take?+

Most IV drips (like Myers' Cocktail or Glutathione) take 30-45 minutes. NAD+ infusions require slower administration and typically take 2-4 hours to prevent side effects.

Does it hurt?+

There is a small pinch when the IV needle is inserted, similar to a blood test. Once the line is in place, the experience is painless and relaxing.

How often should I get IV therapy?+

For general wellness maintenance, once a month is common. For specific goals like skin brightening or acute fatigue recovery, Dr. Jiang may recommend weekly sessions for 4-6 weeks.

Is IV therapy safe?+

Yes, when administered by medical professionals. At RAAC, we use hospital-grade sterile equipment and screen all patients for contraindications before treatment.

Can I drive after IV therapy?+

Most patients can drive immediately after treatment. However, if you receive NAD+ or feel lightheaded, we recommend having someone drive you home.

Why is IV therapy better than oral supplements?+

Oral supplements are only 20% absorbed due to digestive breakdown. IV therapy delivers 100% of nutrients directly to your cells, allowing for higher therapeutic doses.
