Oral vitamin C has a ceiling.

According to the NIH, absorption falls below 50% once intake passes about 1 gram a day. Past that point, a bigger dose in the cup adds less and less.

An IV works differently, because it skips digestion entirely.

A 2004 study in the Annals of Internal Medicine found that IV vitamin C reached blood levels oral doses could not match.

That's the context for this month's member perk.

Through November, members pay nothing for Mega C.

What's included?
Two grams of vitamin C.
Mixed into any lifestyle drip.
No separate visit required.

Why vitamin C in November?
Your body can't make it, and it doesn't keep large reserves.
It contributes to normal immune function.
Flu activity usually starts climbing in October and November, then tops out from December through February, per the CDC.

Every add-on goes through the same nurse screening as your drip, under physician-set protocols. Past kidney stones or kidney disease are worth flagging during that screening.

Members, request Mega C at check-in.

Curious how memberships work? The team can explain at check-in.

Humans are one of the few mammals that can't make their own vitamin C.

Most animals produce it in the liver. We lost the enzyme for that step, so our entire supply depends on intake.

That detail is bigger than it looks, because your immune cells go through a lot of it.

Neutrophils, the white blood cells that respond first, concentrate vitamin C at 50 to 100 times the level found in plasma. That figure comes from a 2017 review in Nutrients.

What do they use it for?

Chemotaxis, which means moving toward where they're needed. Protecting their own structures from oxidative stress. Orderly clearance once their work is finished.

That last step is what the video calls the cleanup team.

The EU's authorized health claim states it plainly. Vitamin C contributes to how the immune system normally works.

Now the practical side.

The NIH sets the daily target at 90 mg for men and 75 mg for women. Smoking raises it by 35 mg. Because it dissolves in water, the body keeps limited reserves and clears the excess.

Diet, stress, smoking and training load all shift how much you actually need. Know your baseline before you guess.

Each of the four immunity IVs, Shield, Flu Fighter, Post Viral and Allergy, carries vitamin C.

Before anything is mixed, a licensed nurse walks through your history with you, and every protocol behind it runs under physician oversight.

If you'd like real numbers to work from, start that conversation at your next appointment.

And for members, your perk this month is a FREE 2000mg Vitamin C add-on to any lifestyle drip.

Medical Director: A.D. Thakkar, M.D.

Saturday is costumes, candy and a late night. Sunday is the part nobody dresses up for.

What does a typical Halloween weekend add up to?

More sugar than usual.
Less sleep than usual.
Less water than usual.
One extra variable: clocks fall back at 2 AM Sunday, so your body clock shifts an hour too.

Individually, those are minor. Stacked into 48 hours, they add up.

Treating yourself doesn't have to mean another piece of candy.

A recovery visit starts with a clinician intake covering sleep, food, symptoms and any daily medications.

Your drip is then matched to your goals, with fluids, electrolytes and vitamins, under physician oversight.

Roughly sixty minutes seated, then back to your week.

The treat is the visit. The trick was the third party.

Schedule a post-Halloween reset for early next week.

Medical Director: A.D. Thakkar, M.D.

You'll cancel on yourself. You won't cancel on your boo.

There's data behind that.

Most wellness plans look fine on paper. Follow-through is where they break down.

A 1999 study in the Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology measured the gap.

In a four-month weight-loss program, 95% of people who enrolled with friends, and received added social support, completed it.

Among people who enrolled alone in the standard program, 76% completed it.

Company is a variable you control.

Consider this video a small field test. Sample size: two.

Bring Your Boo Week covers now through October 31. Show up with a friend, and your IV and theirs are both 25% off.

Two people rarely share a baseline, so each of you starts with a separate assessment by a licensed nurse.

Every protocol runs under physician oversight.

Spots are limited. Book both visits early.

Send this to the person who keeps you honest.

Medical Director: A.D. Thakkar, M.D.

Psssttt… Go vote for #5 🎃

10/27/2026

One IV is a self-care habit. Two IVs at 25% off is a plan.

What's the math this week?

Two people.
Two IVs.
25% off each one.
Six days, Mon 10/26 to Sat 10/31.

That's all of it. We kept the terms short on purpose.

Who qualifies as a boo?

A partner, a friend, a sibling or a coworker.
Anyone willing to sit still for about an hour.
Ideally, someone who won't narrate their group chat the whole time.

Costumes are permitted. A sheet with eye holes may add a minute or two to intake.

What doesn't get split?

Your own intake, led by a licensed clinician.
A screening of past conditions and medications you use.
A drip matched to your goals, not your boo's.

Both chairs fall under the same physician oversight.

Availability is limited this week. Book both appointments together.

Choose carefully. Your boo gets the recliner right next to yours.

Medical Director: A.D. Thakkar, M.D.

10/26/2026

This week Monday 10/26 to Saturday 10/31 is Bring Your Boo Week.

Bring a friend, and each of your Lifestyle IVs are 25% off.

Most people book wellness appointments alone.

The research suggests company deserves more credit.

In 2010, a meta-analysis in PLOS Medicine pooled 148 studies covering more than 308,000 people.

Participants with stronger social relationships had a 50% greater likelihood of survival over the study periods.

The authors placed weak social ties alongside well-known risk factors such as smoking and physical inactivity.

Correlation isn't causation, and an IV appointment isn't a social life. Still, the direction of the data is consistent.

So this month, we're making company the easy option.\

What stays individual for each of you?

A one-on-one nurse intake for each person.
A review of past conditions and current medications.
A drip selected for your own baseline and goals.
Every protocol is physician-supervised.

Availability is limited. Book both appointments early.

Choose your boo carefully. Ideally, someone who arrives on time.

Medical Director: A.D. Thakkar, M.D.

Vitamin C, vitamin D and zinc dominate every flu season conversation.

The molecule that keeps vitamin C working almost never comes up.

That molecule is glutathione.

It's a tripeptide built from glutamate, cysteine and glycine.

Your cells make it themselves, and it's the most abundant antioxidant they produce, typically present at 1 to 10 millimolar inside the cell.

What does it actually do?

It neutralizes reactive oxygen species where they form. It regenerates oxidized vitamin C into its usable state.

It helps immune cells maintain normal function, based on research into lymphocyte activity.

That second point matters most during flu season.

Vitamin C donates electrons as it works, which leaves it oxidized. Glutathione restores it, so the two function as a system rather than as separate supplements.

Now the variable.

Research shows glutathione levels tend to decline with age, and oxidative stress from poor sleep or chronic strain draws them down further.

The practical question isn't whether glutathione matters. It's whether your current routine accounts for it.

Nothing gets recommended until a licensed nurse has reviewed your medical history, medications and supplements.

The outcome could be the Glutathione drip, an immunity protocol or no change at all.

Two October details for your planning.

1. Members: IM Detoxed is complimentary this month, as a shot or as an add-on.

2. Immunity drips: return within 7 days, and the second visit is 20% off.

Bring up glutathione during your next appointment.

Medical Director: A.D. Thakkar, M.D.
