The Myers’ Cocktail is an intravenous (IV) infusion of vitamins and minerals, formulated to help improve overall health and well-being. It was developed by Dr. John Myers, a physician from Baltimore, Maryland, in the 1960s, and has been widely used in integrative and functional medicine since then. The cocktail is typically comprised of a combination of vitamins and minerals, such as:
-
- Vitamin C
- Vitamin B complex (B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, and B12)
- Magnesium
- Calcium
The Myers’ Cocktail is administered via an IV drip, allowing the nutrients to bypass the digestive system and enter the bloodstream directly. This is thought to enable higher concentrations of the vitamins and minerals to reach the cells, which may provide a more immediate and effective response.
Proponents of the Myers’ Cocktail claim that it can help with various conditions, such as chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, migraines, respiratory infections, and more. However, while some people report feeling better after receiving the treatment, there is limited scientific evidence supporting the efficacy of the Myers’ Cocktail for these conditions. It is important to consult with a healthcare professional before undergoing any medical treatment, including the Myers’ Cocktail.
