Intravenous nutrients

Post by lyndacarol »

In the many discussions here about vitamins and minerals, has anyone considered or tried intravenous nutrients?

The topic has been on The Dr. Oz Show, 1/15/2013 and repeated on 6/6/2013: Intravenous Nutrients

Video Myers cocktail – magnesium, B vitamins, vitamin C – Pt 1: http://www.doctoroz.com/episode/extreme ... injections
Part 2: http://www.doctoroz.com/episode/extreme ... ideo=16461
Part 3 Concerns: http://www.doctoroz.com/episode/extreme ... ideo=16456

Article: http://www.doctoroz.com/videos/intraven ... ew-on-that

Apparently, people are quite pleased with the results of this.
My hypothesis: excess insulin (hyperinsulinemia) plays a major role in MS, as developed in my initial post: http://www.thisisms.com/forum/general-discussion-f1/topic1878.html "Insulin – Could This Be the Key?"

IV (or perhaps just IM? or subcutaneous?) nutrients are a component of the klenner protocol which I think some TiMS folks have tried (i have done it but with oral forms only.. I had a preliminarly look at b12 injection but it was only in cyanocobalamin form so I stuck with the sublingual methyl form plus the rest in tablets, to very good effect)

I thought B12 was not typically cyanocobalamin

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitamin_B12
Hydroxocobalamin is another form of B12 commonly encountered in pharmacology, but which is not normally present in the human body. Hydroxocobalamin is sometimes denoted B12a. This form of B12 is the form produced by bacteria, and is what is converted to cyanocobalmin in the commercial charcoal filtration step of production. Hydroxocobalamin has an avid affinity for cyanide ion and has been used as an antidote to cyanide poisoning. It is supplied typically in water solution for injection.

Maybe the volatility of the gut has something to do with the antioxidant paradox?

b12 is very typically packaged as cyanocobalamin, whether off in pill form or as an injection. methylcobalamin has been my preferred form. while it's relatively easy to find in specialty stores, it's only recently was I able to track down multivitamins or b-complex that used methylcobalamin. most use cyanocobalamin.

Bump!

I'm about to look into this myself. I'm hoping for something a bit more custom than the Myers cocktail though.

Thx, did you do this for mag?
