How does IV therapy work? 

Our Naturopathic Doctors infuse Vitamins, Minerals, Amino Acids, and Anti-oxidants directly into the blood stream.


IV Therapy provides supranormal plasma concentrations of nutrients in the blood.


Cells are flooded with key substances needed for a number of metabolic functions.

With IV therapy, we can bypass the digestive tract and provide clinically relevant, pharmacologic doses.


IV Therapy provides effects with natural substances that are usually much more robust than can be achieved with the same substances orally. 


What does IV therapy cost? 

IV therapy can be costly.


Fortunately, we do a lot of IV Therapy so we can keep costs down and doses high compared to most other clinics in Edmonton. 

Exact prices vary but here are some general prices:

IV NAD+ $185 - $205

Myers IV $135 - $185


IV Glutathione with Vitamin C $140 - $170

IV Vitamin C $165 - $225


Do I need a consultation before trying an IV? 

At TruMed you need a consultation prior to doing your first IV Therapy.


But don't worry, your initial IV consultation is complimentary.


If you end up doing a treatment, you'll just be charged for that treatment. 


Where is TruMed located? Is it near me?

Our Clinic is in Central Edmonton just West of Kingsway Mall - which means we provide IV Therapy Near You!!

IV Therapy and Hyperbaric Oxygen

IV Vitamin C

The level of tissue oxygenation is an im­portant factor in the anticancer activity of high dose IV vitamin C Therapy. 


The presence of sufficient oxygen is needed for production of hydrogen peroxide (thought to be responsible for the anti-cancer effects of IVC)


This study implies that Hyperbaric Treatment and IV Vitamin C are synergistic and co-administration may yield an enhanced effect.

IV NAD+

NADH is an electron carrier such as produced from NAD+ (which is oxidized).


NAD+ is then reduced (gains an electron with a Hydrogen) in the Krebs cycle - the electrons are passed to the electron transport chain, which results in synthesis of ATP.


Administration of NAD+ IV powers the Krebs Cycle which has down stream synergistic effect in the electron transport chain with the additional Oxygen supplied by Hyperbaric Therapy.

Myers Cocktail IV 

The Myers Cocktail IV is intimately linked with the Krebs Cycle.


For instance, B1 is needed to make acetyl-coa for the Krebs cycle from Pyruvate, B2 is part of FAD, B3 is the precursor to NAD+ and so on.


These provide additional substrate for the Krebs Cycle which can synergize with additional Oxygen from Hyperbaric treatment in the final steps of the electron transport chain.


IV Therapy Case Reports

Published Cases: 

Migraine


Over a 6 year period, one patient was given IV therapy on approximately 70 occasions for acute migraines.


Nearly all of these injections resulted in considerable improvement or complete relief within several minutes.


Our Naturopaths have seen similar results in numerous Edmonton patients.


Chronic Fatigue


Approximately a dozen patients with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) received a minimum of 4 IV Vitamin Therapy treatments with more than half showing clear improvement. 


We've seen similar results, and for Edmonton patients that don't respond to IV Vitamins, we typically use IV NAD+.


Fibromyalgia


Myers Vitamin IV Therapy given to approximately 30 patients with fibromyalgia.


Half of them experienced significant improvement, in a few cases after the first injection, but more often after 3 or 4 treatments.


At our clinic, we've seen similar results, and for patients that don't respond to IV Vitamins, our Naturopaths typically use IV NAD+.


Depression


One patient with a long history of anxiety and depression was given was given IV Vitamin Therapy, the first treatment resulted in a 70–80% reduction in his symptoms. 


Methyl-B12 and Methyl-Folate are key mood IV nutrients.  


Our Naturopathic doctors have seen excellent results in many of our Edmonton patients with mental health concerns using IV Therapy.


Athletic Performance, Hives, Muscle Spasm, Narcotic Withdrawal, Seasonal Allergy and Common Cold have also been reported to benefit.


Dr Gaby's Original IV Therapy Paper where these IV Therapy case reports are from.


We've also seen results in: Macular Degeneration, Angina, Bipolar Disorder, COPD, MS & Parkinson's, Lyme Disease, Frequent Colds and more using IV Therapy.

IV Vitamin C

Immunity, longevity, cosmetics and cancer.

IV vitamin C in Edmonton

Vitamin C IV Facts

IV vitamin C bypasses intestinal absorption and the associated saturable transport mechanisms in the digestive tract.


Intravenous vitamin C might reach blood concentrations that are up to 100 times higher than the same oral dose


In a 2004 study where 12 adults were given 1.25 grams of vitamin C either orally or intravenously peak plasma concentrations were almost 8x higher Intravenously.


Our standard Myers Cocktail IV has 2.5 grams of Vitamin C, whereas our IV treatments for infections for instance are anywhere from 10-25 grams.


Vitamin C is highly concentrated in immune cells - up to 50 to 100 times higher concentrations than the blood. 


One group has proposed "the utilization of hyperbaric oxygen therapy immediate­ly after IV vitamin C therapy to increase its effectiveness as an anticancer agent." 


By providing Vitamin C intravenously with IV therapy our Naturopathic doctors can give you levels of Vitamin C that you simply won't get any other way. 


IV NAD+

Fatigue, longevity & cognition

IV NAD Injection Edmonton

NAD+ IV Facts

Mammals have seven sirtuins (SIRT1–7) which are involved in a process called de-acetylation and subsequently have a role in longevity.


Sirtuins, require NAD+ as a cofactor.


NAD+ can also stimulate energy production by replenishing depleted cellular stores of ATP.


For this reason, in some patients IV NAD+ can produce profound increases in energy. 


With regards to information about NAD+ and its use in addiction and recovery, the original research appears to have come from authors Block and Broom.


Patients were given NAD+ and an amino acid formula for 10 consecutive days ranging from 5 to 10 hours daily, to significantly lessen withdrawal from a variety of drugs and alcohol.


A 2019 study published on NAD+ given IV after a 6 Hour Intravenous Infusion of NAD+ from Dr Broom.


Mechanistically we can expect strong synergy between IV NAD+ and Hyperbaric chamber treatment because of the dual action on the Krebs Cycle and electron transport chain respectively.


Our Naturopaths usually spike the NAD+ IV with additional nutrients to improve biochemical cycling.


Myers Cocktail IV

We've given thousands of Myers Cocktails

Myers IV Therapy

Myers IV Facts

Who was Myers? Apparently from the late 1950s Dr. John Myers MD in the Baltimore area was administering Vitamin pushes to his patients to fatigue, depression, angina and infections.


In 1984, Myers had passed away and a number of his patients came to the office of Dr. Alan Gaby MD requesting that same IV. 


The exact doses were not known, however the ingredients somewhat were and Dr Gaby formulated his own version of the treatment and also began administering the treatment to other patients for other conditions. 

Dr. Gaby gave 15,000 of these injections to an estimated 800–1,000 different patients. 


Dr. Muradov devised his own formulation of the Myers, the "Advanced Myers" that's evolved over 10 years.


So what's the Myers used for? Originally Fatigue, Migraine, Asthma, Fibromyalgia, Depression, Upper Respiratory Tract Infections, Seasonal Allergy, Narcotic Withdrawal, Chronic Hives, Athletic Performance, Hyperthyroidism and COPD. 


Our Myers is given as a small bolus IV that has higher doses of most of the B Vitamins as well as added Riboflavin - Vitamin B2.


Check out our Myers section for more information on this kick ass treatment.

Dr Gaby's Article in AltMed Review


Glutathione IV Therapy

We offer Edmonton a number of Glutathione options

Glut IV

Glutathione IV Facts

Glutathione is the major intracellular antioxidant.


Nearly, all tissues in the body synthesize Glutathione "GSH," with highest levels are in the liver.


It has numerous functions including protecting cells against oxidative stress, detoxification of toxins and carcinogens, and maintenance of immune function. 


Accumulating lines of evidence indicate that Glutathione function is implicated in some neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, Huntington’s disease, and Multiple Sclerosis.


We often give Glutathione IV therapy for acute exacerbations of Multiple Sclerosis, as well as for ALS & Lyme. 


The skin lightening properties result from a variety of mechanisms including stimulation of lighter pheomelanin pigment synthesis rather than darker eumelanin.


For cosmetic purposes, our Naturopathic Doctors combine IV Glutathione with IV Vitamin C. 


Curcumin IV

Inflammation, Autoimmunity and Cancer support

Curcumin IV therapy

Curcumin IV Facts

Curcumin is a yellowish pigment and a well-known polyphenol found in turmeric (Curcuma longa).


Antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, antidiabetic, hepatoprotective, anti-allergic, and neuroprotective effects have been attributed to Curcumin. 


Anticarcinogenic effects of Curcumin are in part also related to an increase in p53 levels. 


Our Naturopaths strongly consider the use of IV therapy with Curcumin in Colon and Pancreatic cancer in particular. 


Our Naturopathic Doctors sometimes use IV therapy with Curcumin as an induction therapy for advanced cases of Arthritis.


Generally, the oral bioavailability of Curcumin is low due to a relatively low absorption by small intestine.


Which is why our NDs prefer IV Therapy administration of Curcumin - to achieve 100% absorption.
