How Vitamin Therapy Can Improve Your Mood

How Vitamin Therapy Can Improve Your Mood

A persistent low or unpleasant mood casts a shadow over your whole life. What can you do to improve your mood? You might start by evaluating your vitamin and nutrient health. While it may not seem intuitive to connect your mood to your nutrition, getting enough key vitamins and minerals actually makes a huge difference in your mental and emotional health, as well as your physical health. After all, your mind is a part of your body!

With this holistic approach, Dr. Bryant S. Edwards and his team at Iconic Infusions, PLLC of Fayetteville, North Carolina, help new and existing patients feel their best. In addition to treatment for mental health conditions like major depressive disorder, Dr. Edwards provides highly effective intravenous (IV) vitamin therapy to optimize your nutrition. How does this help to improve your mood? Here’s what you need to know.

Vitamins, nutrition, and your mood

You think you might be depressed. Why? You’re always tired, you don’t feel cheerful or optimistic very often, and it’s even sometimes hard to fight off brain fog enough to think clearly. However, while your symptoms and their negative impact are very real, they might not be caused by depression.

If you’re suffering from a vitamin deficiency, mood changes and cognitive issues might be the symptoms that let you know about the underlying problem. In particular, if you’re not getting enough B-complex vitamins, vitamin C, or vitamin D, your brain isn’t at optimum health. 

The good news is that there may be an easy way to relieve your brain fog, depressed mood, and other symptoms. You simply need to supplement your diet with additional vitamins! Discuss your symptoms and health history with Dr. Edwards. He offers IV ketamine treatment for depression, as well as other solutions for low mood not caused by depression, including IV vitamin therapy.

Improving your vitamin intake

You can change your diet to increase your nutrient intake, but IV vitamin therapy offers several additional benefits that you should know about. IV infusion sends essential vitamins, minerals, and amino acids directly into your bloodstream, totally bypassing your digestive system. That both speeds up the effectiveness of your treatment and ensures you receive the full amount of extra vitamins, since you’re not losing any nutrients through digestion.

When you come in for an infusion treatment at Iconic Infusions, PLLC, you sit in a comfortable chair while your provider starts your IV. The team continues to monitor your health during your infusion session, in case of an allergic or other adverse reaction.

You can choose from our preexisting set of in-office infusions, or work with Dr. Edwards to put together a vitamin cocktail that exactly fits your supplementation needs. You can even add-on bonus treatments like oxygen therapy for an extra energy boost.

To learn more about how your nutrition connects to your mood, and what vitamin supplements could help you find more energy, optimism, and positivity, contact Dr. Edwards now. Schedule your initial consultation appointment by calling Iconic Infusions, PLLC today, or book with our online tool.
