Frequently asked questions
Why are vitamins essential?
They play a part in energy, immunity and cell regeneration. Diet alone does not always guarantee a sufficient intake: infusions fill these gaps, directly in the bloodstream.
What is the advantage of an infusion over oral supplements?
Absorption is direct and complete. Swallowed supplements go through the digestive system, with some loss of absorption; the intravenous route delivers the whole dose.
Are vitamins enough for good health?
No. They add to minerals, essential fatty acids and good hydration, and above all to a balanced diet, exercise and good stress management.
