HIGH-DOSE VITAMIN C
Vitamin C is a natural antioxidant that is abundant in many foods like oranges, kiwi, strawberries, kale, and many others. At Radiant Health & Wellness, we acknowledge the significance of this essential nutrient in supporting overall well-being and offer our patients valuable information on its benefit in the body.
HOW IT WORKS
At lower doses of Vitamin C (orally or intravenously administered), the molecule acts as an antioxidant protecting cells from oxidative damage, is anti-inflammatory, and improves T-lymphocyte and natural killer cell function. At higher doses (intravenous administration only), Vitamin C acts as a pro-oxidant in cancer cells and induces apoptosis (programmed cellular death).
What a treatment session looks like
A typical infusion lasts +90 minutes. During the appointment a qualified healthcare professional will access a vein to administer the High Dose Vitamin C. At Radiant Health & Wellness we use Health Canada approved equipment and a clean-field technique to minimize risk of infection and complications. Vitals are performed prior to each infusion and patients can relax in one of our comfortable reclining chairs and enjoy complimentary tea and coffee.
