Show Notes
IV vitamin drips are gaining popularity at wellness spas in Massachusetts, with customers like John Blazo paying hundreds for custom mixes of vitamins, antioxidants, and fluids. The trend, which started before the pandemic, offers potential immunity boosts and quick health fixes. However, doctors like those at Mass General Brigham warn of slim evidence for big benefits in healthy adults and potential risks such as infections and fluid overload. The industry is mostly unregulated and worth fifteen billion dollars nationwide, with nearly one hundred drip bars near Boston. Experts advise checking clinic experience, health history, and getting lab tests for real deficiencies before trying IVs, as they arent a magic solution for true wellness.
