HOW CELLS FUNCTION
Alive IV and Wellness is more than just a spa. Let’s dive deeper into how cells function and improve metabolism.
Our protocols may provide rapid improvement in health and well-being, but they are not just a quick fix. The protocols represent a shift in the way we approach wellness. By incorporating IV nutrients and nutrition into your regular routine to enhance cell metabolism, you may experience a profound impact on your overall health, energy levels, and mental clarity. This is not just about feeling better for a day but about creating lasting change in your life.
At Alive IV and Wellness, we explicitly design our IVs and protocols to improve cell metabolism and mitochondrial function. Various nutrients are crucial for healthy cell metabolism and mitochondrial function. Therefore, our IVs and injections deliver these necessary nutrients directly into the bloodstream, ensuring they reach the cells in the right combinations and at much higher concentrations than if taken orally.
In addition to providing essential nutrients, our IVs help improve mitochondrial function by promoting detoxification and reducing oxidative stress. Harmful substances, such as toxins and free radicals, damage cells and impair their function. IV therapy helps remove these substances by providing antioxidants to neutralize free radicals, thereby protecting mitochondria and supporting their function.
MULTI-DIMENSIONAL APPROACH TO HEALTH
While we certainly understand that some health issues require a multi-dimensional approach to understand and resolve, we also know that diminished cellular metabolism and poor mitochondrial function underlie most health issues. This is where we come in – to improve your cellular metabolism.
WHAT IS CELL METABOLISM?
Cell metabolism sustains life through a collection of biochemical reactions that take place within each cell. These reactions involve breaking down nutrients such as carbohydrates, fats, and proteins to produce energy and aid in maintaining healthy cells.
WHAT IS MITOCHONDRIAL FUNCTION?
Tiny, specialized structures inside each cell, known as mitochondria, produce energy to power the body. They are often described as the “powerhouse” of the cell because they are the body’s primary site of energy production.
The process of energy production in the mitochondria is known as cellular respiration. During this process, mitochondria use oxygen to break down nutrients to produce a molecule called ATP, which serves as the primary energy source for the body.
Mitochondria and ATP play a crucial role in muscle contraction, nerve transmission, hormone production, and every other function in the body.
WHAT HAPPENS IN THE CELLS WITH AGING, STRESS, OR DISEASE?
The mitochondria produce most of the energy that our body uses to function. Therefore, proper cell function relies crucially on the health and function of mitochondria.
Various health problems, including neurodegenerative diseases, metabolic disorders, cardiovascular disease, and symptoms of aging, result from dysfunctional mitochondria. Interestingly, all of these things further diminish cell metabolism and mitochondrial function.
Overall, poor mitochondrial function profoundly impacts health and wellness, as it is found underlying just about any disease process.
