Karen’s Weight Loss Journey

Weight Loss Journey

Meet Karen. Karen started her weight loss journey 5 months ago. Her weight wake up call came after a doctor told her “she was getting use to retirement” due to her cholesterol and blood sugar levels increasing. Karen had a family history with diabetes and she knew she did not want to go down that path with her health. In addition, as a grandmother she wanted to stay active with her grandchildren.

Karen’s original goal was to lose 20 pounds but she exceeded her weight loss goal and lost 38 pounds and an amazing 13% of body fat! Her weight loss numbers are life changing and saving.

Overall, Karen felt the program was easy once you truly commit. She mentioned once you choose vegetables over “junk food” consistently, your cravings begin to subside. Some hurdles Karen overcame on the program were giving up chocolate and a glass wine in the evenings. She does plan to treat herself to some wine and chocolate occasionally.

In addition to her newfound energy, Karen no longer craves certain “junk food” that she once craved. Karen looks forward to enjoying her healthy lifestyle and walking more.

What is IV Nutritional Therapy?

IV Nutritional therapy or also known as “Myers Cocktail” is given intravenously. The blend of various B vitamins, vitamin C, magnesium and calcium works to boost your immune system.

This health cocktail is named after John Myers, MD, a physician from Baltimore, Maryland, who pioneered the use of intravenous (IV) vitamins and minerals as part of the overall treatment of various medical problems. Dr. Myers has treated patients for over 25 years with IV nutritional therapy, in addition to the thousands of patients nationwide who have received the great health benefits from IV nutrition therapy.

Many healthy patients choose to receive periodic IV nutrition therapy treatments to enhance health and well being.

How Does IV Nutritional Therapy Work?

The IV administration of nutrients can achieve blood concentrations that are not obtainable with any oral administration or even intramuscular injections. This treatment is more effective for correcting cellular nutritional deficits. When taken orally, the capacity of nutrients to penetrate the cells can be inhibited in certain disease states. IV nutritional therapy helps to deliver nutrients to the inside of cells resulting in improvement in the ability to heal and create the most beneficial immune system and anti-inflammatory response.

Does IV Nutritional Therapy Benefit Cold or Flu Symptoms?

Many patients at Solstice Health utilize IV Nutrition therapy due to feeling run down, stress, or the onset for cold and flu symptoms. A majority of the patients respond to treatment for these symptoms and have results lasting for up to several months.
