What is Immune IV Drip?
Vitamin C has effects on both the innate and the adaptive immune system. Being an important cofactor for various enzymes involved in immune function, it supports the production and function of white blood cells (neutrophils, lymphocytes, and macrophages). One important function of vitamin C is stimulating cellular motility, or chemotaxis, allowing immune cells to effectively migrate to areas of inflammation and infection.
Vitamin C is a well-known antioxidant. It helps to reduce inflammation caused by infection and oxidative stress. It also reduces histamine, making it useful in the treatment of allergies & hives. Vitamin C also works as an antiviral by interfering with viral protein-coat production which prevents the assembly of new viral units. In the face of disease, cancer, toxins and bacteria, our levels of vitamin C are reduced and require replenishment.
