Toronto Functional Medicine Centre (TFMC) in Toronto, ON, Canada, has recently published a blog post that explains the use of IV therapy as adjunct therapy to foster detoxification. Detoxification is vital to achieve improved wellness and optimal health because people are exposed to various toxic chemicals on a daily basis, such as air pollutants and the chemicals from packaging that may contain endocrine-disrupting chemicals. Furthermore, water pipes made prior 1986 may also contain lead.
The human body has a way to detoxify to get rid of harmful compounds, through exhalation, sweating, and organ function and filtration. However, these natural cleansing actions may be compromised as a result of the accumulation of toxins that may hinder the detox process, possibly causing oxidative stress, poor immune function, hormonal imbalances, and more. Poor detoxification may also result in the weakening of cellular health and increase the vulnerability of a person to a chronic illness.
While the process of maintaining optimal health, which involves energy production, immune health, effective detoxification, and functioning nerves may be achieved through proper nutrition, exercise, and the application of integrative functional medicine therapies, IV therapy is also an option. Thus, at TFMC, they often discuss how adjuvant vitamin therapy works, and detox supporting IV ingredients that may be chosen for a patient’s personalized treatment service.
It is important to note that in order to attain enhancements to wellness, a number of core components of a person’s individuality have to be taken into account. These elements include the different aspects of a person’s current health status, including family/medical history, lifestyle and environmental factors, and health goals. In some situations, functional medicine lab tests may be needed for further analysis. After they have carefully examined the “whole picture” of the patient’s health, they will craft a customized treatment.
In a number of cases, the results of the tests may indicate the lack of certain nutrients that may possibly cause health issues, such as aging effects, brain fog, and more. The treatment plans may then be tailor-fitted to resolve those nutrient deficiencies, which may include oral supplementation and dietary changes. IV therapy may be used in combination with various functional medicine therapies. Their IV Lounge can offer various kinds of drips for wellness improvements, which may also help with detoxification.
Their IV drips feature individually tailored nutrient therapy formulations for added support for the patient’s specific needs, which contributes to optimal functioning and promotes enhanced detoxification processes. Their IV nutrient therapy drips are always freshly compounded without introducing any preservatives, and every session is monitored by a member of their health team, who may be a medical doctor, registered nurse, naturopathic doctor, or nurse practitioner.
Some of the nutrients to consider for IV therapy include: glutathione, N-acetylcysteine, NAD, alpha lipoic acid and chelation therapy. It is important to note that an individualized approach is usually applied in order to achieve an increase in energy levels, muscle recovery, mental clarity, and liver detoxification. It is important to note that a custom IV drip is typically used in combination with a healthy diet, regular exercise, and other treatment modalities.
The Toronto Functional Medicine Centre in Toronto, Ontario, Canada uses the integrative functional medicine principle that combines naturopathic medicine, allopathic medicine, acupuncture, bio-identical hormone replacement, IV therapy, detoxification, and more.
