Along with aesthetic procedures and all the other methods for becoming more beautiful and look younger appears that now there is another obsession around the Hollywood stars – intravenous injection of vitamins (IV vitamin Therapy).
Among the celebrities, who benefited from the intravenous vitamins, are Rihanna and Madonna.
Intravenous vitamins can be used in two yas. You can be only injected with one vitamin, for example vitamin C or B, or you can be prepared with a “cocktail” of nutrients.
A large percentage of the people who “got” their vitamins in this way say that they feel much more energized and toned than when taking the nutrients in the traditional way.
Experts believe that injecting vitamins can be beneficial for those suffering from difficult absorption of nutrients through the gastrointestinal tract.
When vitamins are delivered intravenously, they “came into use” faster than when they are taken orally. Many people, who receive vitamin infusions, say that they feel the effects of vitamins immediately, said Dr. Robert Graham, an internist at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York.
Graham adds that the benefits of intravenous vitamins may be due to some degree of the “placebo effect”, a phenomenon in which a person feels better after a treatment just because he believes it works.
A study conducted in 2009 found that infusions of vitamins reduce pain in fibromyalgia sufferers and cancer patients. It is not clear whether the effect is long lasting.
Intravenous vitamin carries risks such as bruising, infection and inflammation of the vein and others. There is also the risk of a wrong dose infusion of nutrients, which can lead to sudden cardiac arrest.
There are conflicting claims about the safety of the method. Some scholars are of the opinion that taking the vitamins intravenously has considerably higher risks than taking them orally.
They recommend that the vitamins are obtained from food sources and supplements, which are not likely to harm health.
