Gut Health & Absorption
Why Digestion Matters: The Gut-Infusion Connection
You’ve invested in IV therapy to feel your best, but have you considered the engine that powers your health between treatments? Your gut.
At Mynd Thera, we use IV infusions and injections because they offer 100% bioavailability—bypassing the digestive system to deliver nutrients directly to your cells. However, maintaining those levels requires a healthy digestive tract. If your gut is inflamed or "leaky," you aren't just absorbing fewer nutrients from your food; you might be driving the very inflammation you're trying to treat.
The "Leaky Gut" Problem
The lining of your intestine is supposed to be a strong barrier, letting nutrients in and keeping toxins out. Chronic stress, processed foods, and sugar can loosen the tight junctions of this barrier (a condition often called "Leaky Gut"). This allows undigested food particles and toxins to escape into the bloodstream, triggering systemic inflammation and "brain fog."
How to Seal & Heal Your Gut
To get the most out of your Glutathione and NAD+ therapies, try these three steps:
Remove Triggers: Minimize gluten, dairy, and refined sugar for 2 weeks to lower inflammation.
Restore Good Bacteria: Eat fermented foods like sauerkraut, kimchi, or kefir to rebuild your microbiome.
Repair the Lining: Bone broth and collagen are rich in amino acids that physically repair the gut lining.
The Bottom Line
IV therapy is the jumpstart; a healthy gut is the sustain pedal. By caring for your digestion, you ensure that every healthy meal you eat actually counts.
