Managing Stress Intravenously

HOW IV THERAPY IN EAST BRUNSWICK FEATURING VITAMIN C CAN HELP YOU MANAGE STRESS.

Everyone experiences stress. Good stress or “eustress” helps keep you going by motivating and getting you excited about what lies ahead. But bad stress, or “distress”, has the opposite effect. In small amounts distress isn’t usually too hard to handle, but if the stressors keep piling up and you don’t have good coping techniques in place distress can get out of control—leading you to feel completely overwhelmed.

If you aren’t careful, stress can wear down your immune system, leaving you feeling fatigued and susceptible to illness. In East Brunswick, IV therapycan’t replace genuine stress management techniques. However, intravenous infusion with vitamin C is able to boost the immune system, helping your body to manage stress more efficiently.

Vitamin C and Stress

A group of German researchers studied the effect of vitamin C on stress levels. They did this by exposing 120 participants to extreme stress: a public speaking engagement tied into math equations. Half of the participants were given 1,000 mg of Vitamin C to help them with the task.

The results? Those who did not receive the vitamin C supplement experienced higher levels of cortisone—the stress hormone. Those who took the vitamin C supplement self-reported feeling less stressed during the assignment than the control group.

Vitamin C has long been respected as helpful for the immune system, but this research indicates that the supplement could reduce the mental side effects of stress as well as actually help people cope with stressful situations better.

You can add more vitamin C into your diet by drinking orange juice and eating plenty of citrus, but this isn’t always enough to combat a particularly stressful lifestyle. IV therapy boosts vitamin C levels by skipping the digestion process and introducing the supplement directly into the bloodstream.

While IV therapy will help you tackle stressful tasks and maintain better immune health, it helps to couple these benefits with healthy stress management techniques. The next time you are feeling particularly stressed try going for a walk, taking deep breaths or writing in your journal. All of these are proven techniques that can help reduce stress levels as you focus on improving your health.
