Which to Choose Between IV Therapy and Oral Supplements?

Kosmoderma recommends opting for IV drips over oral supplements. That’s because the nutrients administered intravenously are absorbed faster and more efficiently than pills. Yes, do you know that when you take oral supplements only a percentage of the nutrients are absorbed by the body? Well, that’s because they have to navigate laborious pathways before reaching the bloodstreams. On the other hand, nutritional compounds delivered intravenously do not have to pass the gut to reach the body’s cells, ensuring their prompt delivery.

Well, the rich concentration of nutrients delivered via IV therapy boosts your immune system and provides immediate relief.

If you are looking for IV therapy, you can walk into Kosmoderma Clinics in Mumbai, Bangalore, Chennai, and Delhi.

All About Intravenous Therapy And How It Works

IV therapy involves administering the patient with a host of nutrients to improve their immune defenses to combat infections and illnesses. Among nutritional compounds delivered intravenously to the person’s vein are antioxidants, fluids, amino acids, vitamins, and minerals. To break it down further, nutritional compounds such as glutathione, the B-Complex group of vitamins, zinc, selenium, magnesium, and vitamin-C are added to IV drips.

Now, unlike the route taken by oral supplements which goes via the digestive system, IV therapy bypasses the digestive system. This way, the nutrients are delivered to the bloodstream directly, allowing for their efficient absorption by the body.

A significant advantage of drip therapy is that it begins working almost immediately, whereby the patient feels energized.

At Kosmoderma, we optimize the IV drips to meet your body’s nutritional requirements effectively, allowing for immediate rehydration.

Do Oral Supplements Match Up?

Oral supplements are available in various formats. These include tablets, liquids, and capsules. Now, although oral supplements help to increase your vitamin intake, they come with their own set of limitations, including:

• Poor Absorption Rates: The nutrients in oral supplements have to pass through the digestive system, which results in their loss. Hence, the body gets to absorb only 10% to 50% of their nutritional value.
• Delayed Results: The body takes hours or days to absorb the nutrients in oral supplements. Moreover, health disorders can affect the nutrient-absorption process.
• Digestive Problems: In some cases, patients suffer from nausea and bloating when they consume pills.
• Individual Factors: Various factors can affect the way your body absorbs oral supplements. These include age, physical condition, and diet.

Oral supplements, no doubt, help to raise your nutrient uptake. However, Kosmoderma recommends IV drips when you need immediate replenishment. IV drip therapy not only acts faster but also delivers a richer concentration of nutrients to the bloodstreams.

Drip Therapy and Oral Supplements: Key Differences

While both intravenous therapy and oral supplements can replenish your body with nutrients, they vary in the way they work:

1) Rate of Absorption: The body absorbs nutrients faster and more efficiently with IV therapy as compared to oral supplements. That’s because drip therapy bypasses the digestive system, preventing nutrient loss.

2) Results: With IV therapy, you get the much-needed energy boost immediately. That’s because the nutrients are delivered directly to the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system. Conversely, it takes days or weeks for the results of oral supplements to start showing because the nutrients have to pass through the digestive system.

3) Concentration of Nutrients: Intravenous therapy helps a high concentration of vitamins and minerals to enter the bloodstream. It is recommended for those with a weak immune system and nutritional deficiencies to give them an immediate energy boost. On the other hand, only a certain fraction of nutritional compounds reaches the bloodstream when you consume oral supplements.

4) Hydration Boost: IV therapy helps to rehydrate the body with the efficient delivery of fluids, vitamins, amino acids, antioxidants, and minerals. Alternatively, oral supplements do not hydrate the body and you have to drink water to facilitate their absorption by the body.

5) ffectiveness: IV therapy helps to maintain body hydration and provide nourishment to the body even for those having an upset stomach or other digestive problems. It ensures the delivery of nutrients to the bloodstream while bypassing the digestive system entirely. Oral supplements are not as effective as drip therapy when you have digestive disorders.

At Kosmoderma, we recommend intravenous therapy when you need a quick wellness boost. It helps to replenish your body with vital nutrients while maintaining bodily balance, getting you all energized.
