Growing and supporting the development of a baby is one of the greatest metabolic challenges that a mother’s body endures. During pregnancy, a mother’s body demands more energy and nourishment than usual. IV therapy can give the body a helping hand by providing additional hydration, nutrients, and minerals to assist in a healthy pregnancy.
Prenatal
B12 +B vitamin complex
These important vitamins increase the formation of myelin, reduce homocysteine, increase replication of DNA, promote hormonal efficiency, produce red blood cells, and prevent auto-immune diseases in certain populations. Additionally, Vitamin B complex supports good eye and cardiovascular health, digestion, muscle tone, and energy enhancement.
Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine)
Vitamin B6 plays a crucial role in the physiological development and function of the central nervous system. Pyridoxal phosphate, the activated form of vitamin B6, acts as a coenzyme in approximately 100 reactions of human metabolism and is effective in reducing nausea and vomiting in pregnancy. This vitamin is essential to red blood cell, nervous system, and immune systems functions and helps maintain normal blood glucose levels.
Folic Acid (B9)
Folic acid is critical for neural tube development. American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists recommends that pregnant women get at least 600 micrograms of folic acid daily from all sources.
Magnesium Sulfate
This chemical compound provides profound neuroprotective mechanisms in developing embryos and aids in the prevention of Cerebral Palsy.
Calcium
Fetal bone development requires approximately 30 grams of calcium during pregnancy. High-dose calcium supplementation may reduce the risk of developing a hypertensive disorder during pregnancy.
Metoclopramide
Anti-nausea medications, such as Metoclopramide, have been shown to be safe during pregnancy for decades.
Omega 3 (EPA& DHA)
Omega 3 is a fatty acid that is highly beneficial for its ability to lower blood pressure, reduce triglycerides, slow the development of plaque in arteries and promote cardiac health. It is also found to be helpful in development of the embryo retina and brain.
