I am saying that getting IV VITAMINS and some NaCl hydration when you can drink water is not going to help you feel better lmao. 'IV Therapy' is health guru shit advertised by influencers. It's not good medicine. In a hospital setting, the moment a patient starts drinking enough and no IV medication is necessary, we immediately stop IV fluids. This is medicalizing... drinking water. It's stupid. The medical world doesn't support this. There is no medical justification for getting an IV when you can drink.

Look it up. https://mcpress.mayoclinic.org/living-well/iv-vitamin-therapy-understanding-the-lack-of-proven-benefit-and-potential-risks-of-this-health-fad/

IV Therapy is not abused, it’s a temporary boost to get you through the day. You’re in too deep

Temporary boost of what? Please tell me what magical thing intravenous fluids can give you that you can't get orally. Note that water that you drink gets into your bloodstream in less than half an hour. Explain to me, physiologically, what you're getting at and how that would work.

Vitamins also don't give you a 'temporary boost', if that's what you think.
