Measured deficiencies
- Low levels confirmed on blood tests
- When tablets have not worked or are not tolerated
- Rechecked after treatment
IV & nutrition therapy
Most people get the nutrients they need from food. Some do not, because of a measured deficiency, poor absorption or a specific medical reason. For them, a doctor may give nutrients straight into a vein. At Mitogenez an IV is a targeted tool inside a doctor-led plan, not a wellness habit.

The idea
When you swallow a vitamin, your gut decides how much of it gets in. For most nutrients and most people, that works well. But if a blood test shows you are low, and tablets have not fixed it or your gut does not absorb well, a drip skips that step. The nutrient goes straight into your blood. Your doctor decides what goes in the bag based on your results, and checks again afterwards.
How it works
Your doctor reviews your history and blood tests to see whether you actually have a gap that an IV could help with.
If an IV makes sense, the nutrients and doses are chosen for you and given slowly through a small cannula in your arm.
Follow-up tests show whether levels have improved, so the plan can move back to food and tablets where possible.
Your session
Session length
Typically 30–90 minutes, depending on the drip
How it feels
A small needle prick, then you sit and rest while it runs
Course
Only as needed, set and reviewed by your doctor
Before you start
A physician review and relevant blood tests
Who it may help
If your tests are normal, an IV is unlikely to add much. Your doctor will tell you so.
Where it fits
An IV corrects a specific, measured gap. Your doctor first looks for why the gap is there, such as diet, absorption or medication, and works on that cause. The IV is a short-term bridge while the rest of the plan takes effect.
Assess
A doctor reviews your health and screens you for safety.
Plan
Medicine and lifestyle first; therapies only where they help.
Measure
Retests show what is working, and the plan adapts.
Safety first
Questions
We do not give IVs on request or from a menu. A doctor first checks whether you have a real, measured need. If you do not, we will not recommend one. We also look at the reason for the gap, such as diet, sleep, gut health or medication, so the IV is not a stand-in for fixing the cause.
For most people, no. Food and, where needed, tablets are enough. An IV is useful when levels stay low despite that, when absorption is poor, or for specific medical reasons. It reaches the blood faster, but that does not make it better for everyone.
We do not offer IV glutathione for skin lightening. The evidence for it is weak, and regulators in several countries have warned against its use for this purpose. Where glutathione is used at all, it is for a specific clinical reason your doctor explains to you.
Not in the same bag. Some nutrients can react with each other, so our medical staff follow set preparation rules and give them separately when both are prescribed.
When it is prescribed for a clear reason, screened for and given by trained staff, IV therapy is generally safe. Side effects are usually minor, such as bruising at the needle site. Any drip carries small risks, like infection or vein irritation, which is why we only give one when there is a real benefit to weigh against them.
Often only a few, and sometimes none. It depends on what your tests show. Your doctor sets a short course if needed, rechecks your levels, and moves you back to food and tablets as soon as that is enough.

A doctor looks at your whole health first, then decides with you whether IV therapy belongs in your plan.
