Newman says he drank only a few glasses of beer the night before. If I had a little more hangover, I think it would have been a more dramatic change. But I just feel good. ”
Too Much Booze is just one of Revive’s menu recipes. “Too Much Sun”, “Too Much Exercise” and, of course, this is a party beach town. It is “Too Much EVERYTHING”.
They also offer vitamin shots for $ 30 to $ 50 per pop. The Yale House crew got a B-12 shot for an energy boost.
Co-owner Tania Pritz is a retired chiropractor who advertises the health benefits of drip and shot. She says the body does not absorb traditional oral vitamins well, while the IV line properly takes nutrients into the bloodstream.
Too few people have a disciplined nutrition and fitness regimen, which has sprung up a business like her, Pritz said.
“Are you eating well? Natural Whole Foods, organic?” She asks. “Are you getting enough rest? Are you managing your stress? Are you exercising? Most people don’t do this.”
Pritz argues that IVs can correct these deficiencies in diet and lifestyle.
“This is a way you can supplement your health and invest in your health, rather than waiting until you get sick and break down and enter the very poor healthcare system that cares for your illness. “She says. “This is part of contributing to your own health.”
Revives also drip into people’s homes, even by the pool. The fraternity brothers at the party used it on the beach pad both before and after the match. We also plan to inject bachelor parties and bachelor parties.
“Generally not harmful and really not needed”
But are the infusions safe, and do they really provide health benefits?
Dr. Sam Torbati of Beverly Hills, California is responsible for emergency care at the Cedars Sinai Medical Center. He has many friends who have tried treatments that are popular with Hollywood celebrities, such as model and television personality Chrissy Teigen.
He administers doses using sterile methods by trained clinicians and unnecessary “epidemic” IV infusions unless the recipient has serious heart or other health problems. I call it.
“For otherwise healthy people, simply drinking water and taking multivitamins can achieve the same result,” says Torbati. “Or, if you’re on a balanced diet, you don’t even need extra vitamins, so they’re generally not harmful and generally not really needed.”
Doctors emphasize that no one should expect long-term benefits.
“Does it improve your health? No, will you live longer? No. Will it cure cancer and other illnesses? No. It seems like there are many things that can make people feel better.” He said.
Pritz and co-owner Matt McKinnis emphasize that they have a medical director who oversees their business and people are asked about their health history before being infused.
Torbati encourages people with hangovers to drink plenty of fluids, and perhaps to relieve over-the-counter pain and rest. I’m not going back to the bar.
According to registered dietitian Bonnie Taubdix, Las Vegas is also a popular remedy for hangovers, and it’s no surprise that people who drink too much feel a little better.
“You’re probably dehydrated, and that hydration probably makes you feel better,” Taubdix said. “But otherwise, people seem to want it for a quick fix. But in reality, they don’t fix much.”
In addition, she says, it’s really expensive.
“If you need vitamins, you can go to the pharmacy and buy each one for free, and you can spend far less money than going to one of these IV solutions,” she says. I did.
