What is a Myer’s Cocktail, and When Should You Use It?

Originally developed by the late John Myers, MD, the Myers cocktail is an IV treatment that has become extremely popular in recent years. Composed of several essential ingredients, this formula was designed to potentially treat several clinical conditions, including fatigue, fibromyalgia, and muscle spasms due to dehydration. Its golden status among countless health-conscious people can lead many to become curious about what it contains and if it would be right for them.

Let’s take a closer look at what makes this particular IV treatment so special and what benefits it may provide.

First, what are the ingredients in a Myer’s cocktail?

Magnesium chloride

This mineral plays a large part in helping to prevent inflammation and support a healthy immune system. Chronic inflammation is one of the leading causes of rheumatoid arthritis and heart disease. Magnesium Chloride has been helpful in treating conditions like asthma, migraines, and high blood pressure through the reduction of inflammation.

Calcium gluconate

An essential mineral in the construction and maintenance of healthy bones. It accomplishes this by boosting the calcium levels in the blood. Regular infusions of Calcium Gluconate can preserve the strength of your bones as you age.

Vitamin B complex

It contains the core 8 B vitamins that are necessary for healthy hair, skin, and nails. Among them is the all-important Vitamin B12 which plays a major role in preserving the integrity of your DNA and fighting against chronic diseases. B-complex vitamins are also beneficial in managing stress and preventing memory loss.

Vitamin C

Vitamin C is an essential component of our overall health. While it is best known for its ability to keep the immune system healthy, it has a host of other benefits, including fighting free radicals and preventing chronic illnesses and diseases. Vitamin C is also important in maintaining skin help, self-healing, and collagen synthesis. As if that weren’t enough, Vitamin C works as a supercharger for other nutrients, amplifying the body’s ability to absorb other important things like iron.

These ingredients working in concert have produced a host of results for many people seeking a boost in their health and overall well-being. Here are some of the most common.

Strengthened immunity against the cold and flu

The high concentration of Vitamin C and different B vitamins has proven to be highly effective in boosting the immune system against the cold and flu.

Improved nerve health

The presence of B12 aids in making sure all the nerve cells are kept in pristine working order. Regular B12 infusions may be instrumental in warding off the onset of fibromyalgia.

Increased mental clarity and focus

Vitamins such as B12 and Vitamin C aid in the efficient production of sustainable energy for your body to use. The presence of magnesium aids in recovery and enhanced sleep quality resulting in greater clarity, focus, and mood balance.

Treatment of headaches and migraines

A lack of magnesium is often the cause of headaches and many migraines. The high concentration of magnesium in a Myer’s cocktail has done wonders for many who have dealt with chronic headaches.

Increased strength and stamina

Vitamin B12 helps in the production of red blood cells. These cells are responsible for carrying oxygen throughout the body. Many people experience muscle weakness because of a B12 deficiency that is hampering the ability to get adequate oxygen into the muscles. The boost you receive from this cocktail can help shore up any gaps you may have in your B12 reserves.

Best uses for a Myer’s cocktail

This IV treatment is considered a great first option for those that are just getting started with receiving infusion therapy. Most of the ingredients in the cocktail are water-soluble, meaning that anything beyond your body’s needs will be harmlessly excreted from the body. This, paired with the relatively short time it takes to be administered, makes it an accessible first option.

The Myer’s cocktail is also a great treatment for maintaining overall well-being and energy. Regular use of this treatment can boost mental clarity and focus.

If working in an intense, fast-paced environment, Myer’s cocktail can be used to help manage stress, provide emotional balance, and put you in a good place for optimum recovery afterward.

This IV treatment is effective in helping those that may have a weakened immune system or are experiencing the onset of a cold or flu to turn the tide and speed up recovery.

It is clear that Myer’s cocktail has gained its stellar reputation for good reason. Built on solid fundamentals and a great track record, this cocktail was designed to enhance the well-being of a very wide audience. While treatment under guidance is always recommended, this IV treatment is definitely one to consider.
