You know the feeling all too well—fatigue, a fever, runny or stuffy nose and sore throat. Whether you’re dealing with a cold or the flu, the last thing you want is to be slowed down by illness.
One of the best ways to build up your immune system to help fight off infections is immunity IV Therapy. This can be a valuable tool in both preventing and shortening cold and flu symptoms. Keep reading to learn how IV Drip Therapy can help deliver the potent blend of nutrients, vitamins and minerals needed to keep your system strong through cold and flu season.
How Does IV Drip Therapy Help with Immunity?
First, let's cover the basics. There are several healthy lifestyle habits that help keep your immune system in good shape, including:
- Eating a nutritious, balanced diet
- Getting regular exercise
- Prioritizing quality sleep
- Avoiding smoking and drinking
- Taking precautionary steps like frequent hand-washing
- Minimizing stress
When combined with these habits, IV Drip Therapy works especially well in providing immune system support. It’s well-documented that vitamins can both help prevent and reduce the severity of cold and flu symptoms, and immunity IV Drip Therapy is one of the best—and fastest—ways to effectively provide your body with the vitamins that it needs.
The therapy itself involves delivering an intravenous infusion directly into your vein, which allows your body to absorb the nutrients faster and with 100% bioavailability compared to 15-20% through eating or drinking alone. This speed and superior absorption help to provide the benefits at a much quicker rate and may play a key role in the prevention and duration of colds and flu.

Vitamin C
Vitamin C plays a role in many body functions, but because it’s not naturally produced by the body, it needs to be provided through consumption or supplementation. It’s critical for immune system support due to its strong antioxidant properties, which help protect the body from oxidative stress that can cause damage to your body’s cells and tissues. Vitamin C has also been found to reduce the severity of the common cold, work as an antihistamine, reduce inflammation and aid in iron absorption, which can help reduce fatigue.
B Complex Vitamins
B Complex (Vitamins B1, B2, B3, B5 and B6) play a role in supporting your immunity, reducing the body’s stress response and helping to increase energy. Because B Vitamins help convert food into energy, this gives the immune system the strength it needs to effectively stave off infections.
Certain B Vitamins also function as antioxidants that are necessary for the body to fight off free radicals, while others produce the antibodies required to recognize and neutralize germs, bacteria and viruses.
Taurine
Taurine is an amino acid that plays various critical roles throughout the body, including the support of healthy immune and nervous systems. Whereas other amino acids help to build proteins, that’s not the case with Taurine. It’s known as a conditionally essential amino acid, which means it’s only “essential” in times of illness and stress. Because it’s an antioxidant, it’s a vital mineral to help protect cells from the oxidative stress and inflammation that can lead to illness and disease.
Glutathione
Known as the “Master Antioxidant”, Glutathione has a key role in supporting a healthy immune system. It’s found in every cell in the body and is made up of three amino acids that when combined, make up all the proteins in the body.
Glutathione has been found to counteract the free radicals that can lead to illness and disease, reduce oxidative stress, regenerate Vitamin C and increase the number of white blood cells necessary to fight off infection.
Trace Elements
Trace elements include Zinc, Copper, Selenium and Manganese and are found in small amounts in the body’s tissues. It’s been shown that being deficient in any of these key minerals can result in both a weakened antibody and immunity responses to illnesses and diseases. By supplementing trace elements, you’re helping to strengthen the body’s antibody response, support the immune system and reduce the chances of illness and infection.
