Glutathione, the body's master antioxidant, elevates nutrient IV therapy from basic hydration to powerful cellular protection against oxidative stress, toxins, and inflammation. Building on my earlier blog for a beginner's guide to nutrient IVs, this in-depth review explores glutathione as the ideal next-step add-on. Whether you're bouncing back from illness, optimizing workouts, or managing everyday toxins, glutathione delivers targeted support where standard drips fall short.
NAD+ as an add-on to nutrient IVs elevates basic drips by targeting cellular energy at its core, making it a smart next step for patients hitting plateaus with standard Myers' cocktails or glutathione boosts. This follow-up guide explains when to consider NAD+, how it synergizes in an IV bag, and practical tips to integrate it safely for lasting vitality.
If pain lingers on the outside of your elbow for months — despite rest, braces, or physical therapy — you’re not alone. Tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis) is one of the most persistent tendon problems seen in both athletes and everyday workers. And while it often starts with a simple overuse injury, chronic cases can signal deeper degeneration within the tendon where healing stalls.
Hyaluronic acid (HA) injections have become an established treatment option for managing joint pain, particularly in osteoarthritis. Understanding how HA works, the conditions it best treats, who should consider it, and the associated risks can help patients make informed decisions about this therapy.
Prolotherapy has been gaining attention in recent years as a treatment option for chronic musculoskeletal pain and joint instability. It is a regenerative injection therapy that stimulates healing by triggering the body’s inflammatory and repair processes. Understanding how prolotherapy works, which conditions it treats best, who makes a good candidate, and potential risks can help clarify its role in pain management.
As a naturopath, I always look for the most natural options for treatment. Sometimes this is looking at overall diet and lifestyle changes that can modify inflammation in the body. Sometimes this is looking at regenerative injections like prolotherapy or platelet-rich plasma. And other times, corticosteroids are the best option.
