Pandemic Fatigue
As we pass the anniversary of the global pandemic, and come across new Provincial restrictions this week, we see the phrase ‘Pandemic Fatigue’ being used with more and more regularity. Most authors who use this phrase describe this fatigue as simply the resistance to continued following of Public Health recommendations. But we, here at the IV, understand this phrase much more literally.
Everyone we are seeing lately is exceptionally tired. Tired when they wake up, tired of sitting around, even too tired to sleep. Sound familiar?
Whether it be from losing sleep over financial insecurity, daily consumption or excessive amounts of alcohol, feeling like we are ‘living at work’ rather than ‘working from home’, feeling totally cooped up, or simply tired from the mental exhaustion of the daily news cycle – this pandemic is really weighing us down (obviously, in more ways than one!)
If you’re feeling particularly burdened during this time, we can support you by helping you shake off this fatigue with our Premium line of IVs. Why do we suggest our Premium IV’s?
Hydration
Our premium IVs contain ample fluids and electrolytes to ensure that, even though your mask keeps you from drinking enough water, your cells are hydrated. If you regularly experience dry skin or mouth, dark yellow pee, easy muscle fatigue, or foggy brain and headaches you are likely chronically dehydrated. Simply replenishing the body’s fluids can remarkably improve energy.
Nutrients to support energy
More fluids in our Premium IVs also means more room for high-dose energy and metabolism supporting nutrients. B vitamins are intimately connected with energy creation in our bodies. High doses of these vitamins, like vitamin B12, can increase energy when you’re deficient. NAD+, featured in some of our Premium IVs, is a B vitamin derivative that is like energy currency for your cells. If you are waking unrefreshed, lacking motivation, feeling wired but totally tired at night, the high dose of these B vitamins help to re-energise you, despite all odds.
When you’re ready, our Naturopathic IV Doctors can help you formulate an IV vitamin treatment that will give you back the spring in your step!
