Cold and Flu Season is Nearly Here: Boost Your Immunity with a Myers Cocktail Infusion

When autumn rolls around each year, so do increases in seasonal illnesses like colds and flu. While you can get sick at any time of the year, factors like cooler temperatures and schools resuming sessions mean that communicable illnesses spike in autumn and winter. When more illnesses are “going around,” your risk of getting sick increases.

You don’t want to spend too much of the colder months laid up with contagious illnesses. How can you avoid getting sick with colds or the flu this year? In addition to preventive measures like the flu vaccine, work on strengthening and supporting your immune system as a whole. 

At Iconic Infusions, PLLC, we offer Myers Cocktail and other vitamin infusions to boost your immune system. Our team of infusion experts, led by Dr. Bryant S. Edwards, provides Myers Cocktail and other intravenous (IV) vitamin therapy treatments from a comfortable, medspa-style location in Fayetteville, North Carolina. 

Let us explain more about how a Myers Cocktail infusion reduces the risk of contracting a communicable illness.

Immunity and illness: boosting your immune system for fall

Your body’s main line of defense against invading germs comes from your immune system. With component parts like white blood cells, your immune system fights off germs before you get sick. Even if you become ill, your immune system keeps working to get rid of germs as soon as possible, keeping any damage the internal invaders do to a minimum.

Vaccines train your immune system to recognize certain types of germs more rapidly so that your immune response kicks in immediately. Other types of immune system support focus on increasing the overall strength and robustness of your immune response.

Vitamins and other supplements give your immune system the strength to fight off illnesses successfully all or most of the time. IV infusion is a great way to get the maximum benefit from supplementation.

How a Myers Cocktail improves immunity

First developed by Dr. John Myers in the 1970s, a Myers Cocktail blends together essential vitamins and nutrients. The Myers Cocktail contains:

• B vitamins
• Magnesium chloride
• Calcium gluconate

Combined, these vitamins and nutrients give your immune system extra support when you need it most. This infusion therapy effectively treats many pain and fatigue conditions and also addresses upper respiratory tract infections and chronic sinusitis.

Your infusion treatment only takes about an hour to complete, sometimes less. IV administration means the cocktail goes right into your bloodstream without any loss. In contrast, when you use oral supplements, the digestive process causes you to absorb less than the whole dose and takes more time to affect your body.

Could you benefit from IV vitamin therapy with a Myers Cocktail infusion this fall? The treatment is so quick and easy that many receive their IV during lunch breaks. And, after your infusion, you walk back out the door with an immune system that’s more ready than ever to swing into action and fight off colds, flu, and even COVID-19.
