IV Therapy and Healing After Surgery

It’s no surprise that healthier people heal faster and have better post-surgical results. A healthy individual is well nourished and consumes an adequate amount of daily micronutrients in the form of fruits and vegetables, as well as maintaining a normal BMI. Unfortunately, many Americans are malnourished, overweight and battling diabetes or other health issues. This is mostly attributed to the processed, nutrient-poor food that many Americans consume.

Insufficiencies in micronutrients and vitamins have a negative impact on the immune system and ability to heal. Surgical patients with deficits in micronutrients and vitamins are more susceptible to serious complications, as well as bruising, swelling, inflammation and promotion of wound healing. Individuals who are about to undergo a surgical procedure should take steps to ensure immune function is at an optimal level for expedient healing and recovery. The introduction of optimal intravenous nutritional supplementation both before and after a surgical procedure can positively impact the healing process.

  • Vitamins

  • Amino acids

It is important to note that it has long been documented that amino acids play an important role in building muscle in the body. The IV introduction of amino acids can therefore help muscles heal after surgery.

The increased dosage and improved absorption rates that can be achieved through intravenous therapy make it the ideal solution for perioperative wound care and healing.

IV therapy can even be tailored to bolster collagen, which helps provide skin with structural integrity, with an infusion of vitamin C and other nutrients.
