Boost your defenses with IV therapy this cold and flu season!
Cold and flu season is here, bringing with it the annual challenge of staying healthy while balancing the hustle and bustle of the holidays and daily life! Between busy schedules and unpredictable weather, maintaining a strong immune system can feel like an uphill battle.
That’s where Peak Hydration comes in.
Our immune-boosting treatments, including IV therapy, offer a fast, effective way to support your body’s natural defenses. By boosting hydration and delivering essential nutrients directly to your bloodstream, IV therapy helps your immune system work at its best, giving you the upper hand against seasonal illnesses!
The Science Behind Fighting Illnesses: Hydration and Nutrients at Work
Your immune system is your body’s first line of defense against illnesses, working tirelessly to identify, attack, and eliminate harmful invaders like viruses and bacteria. However, its efficiency relies heavily on two crucial factors: proper hydration and a steady supply of essential nutrients. Together, they create the foundation your immune system needs to function effectively.
How Your Body Fights Viruses vs. Bacteria
When faced with viruses, your immune system relies on specialized cells, like natural killer cells and T-cells, to identify and destroy infected cells. Bacteria, on the other hand, trigger a different response, where your body uses antibodies and phagocytes to engulf and eliminate harmful microbes. Both processes require high levels of hydration and nutrients to function efficiently because these battles demand significant energy and resources.
Hydration: The Immune System’s Transport Network
Water plays a vital role in maintaining a strong immune response. It helps to improve circulation that serves as the transport system for delivering oxygen, nutrients, and immune cells throughout your body while flushing out toxins and waste products.
When you’re dehydrated, this process slows down, leading to a weakened immune system that struggles to fend off infections. Hydration also keeps your mucous membranes—the body’s outermost barrier—moist, enhancing their ability to block pathogens from entering.
Nutrients: The Fuel for Immunity
While hydration keeps the system running smoothly, essential nutrients act as the fuel your immune system needs to function at its best. For example:
- Vitamin C boosts the production of white blood cells, helping your body respond quickly to infections.
- Zinc supports the development of T-cells, which are vital for fighting both viruses and bacteria.
- B-complex vitamins sustain energy production and help regulate the immune system’s response to inflammation.
- Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant that supports detoxification, boosts the immune system, reduces oxidative stress, repairs cells, enhances energy and metabolism, and promotes healthier skin.
Deprived of these nutrients, your immune system loses its edge, running inefficiently and leaving you vulnerable to illness.
But I Take Supplements!
Taking daily supplements is an excellent step toward supporting your health, but have you ever wondered how much of those nutrients your body is actually absorbing?
Studies show that oral supplements can have an absorption rate as low as 10-20% (some even less than 10% bioavailable!!), depending on factors like digestion, gut health, and the quality of the supplements themselves. That means much of what you’re taking may never fully benefit your immune system.
The Limits of Oral Supplements
When you consume supplements, they must first pass through your digestive system, where stomach acid and enzymes break them down. Along the way, a significant portion of those nutrients is lost before they reach your bloodstream, where they can actually get to work. For people with sensitive stomachs or absorption issues, the efficiency of oral supplements is even lower, making it harder to meet your body’s nutritional needs.
Why IV Therapy is a Game-Changer
IV therapy bypasses the digestive system entirely, delivering nutrients directly into your bloodstream. This method ensures 100% absorption, so your body can immediately use the nutrients to support your immune system, energy levels, and overall health. By choosing Peak Hydration’s IV therapy, you’re not just supplementing your health—you’re maximizing its potential.
Boost Your Wellness with Precision
Our customized IV drips include those vitamin and mineral workhorses like vitamin C, zinc, B-complex vitamins, and Glutathione all tailored to help your immune system work hard without getting tapped out. Whether you’re looking to boost immunity while you stay active, recover from an illness, or simply stay ahead of seasonal challenges, our treatments offer a more effective solution than supplements alone!
You’re already committed to taking care of your health, why not take it to the next level? Pairing your supplement routine with IV therapy is the ultimate way to ensure your body gets everything it needs—quickly, efficiently, and effectively!

Wanna Bump Up Your Bag?
Looking to give your immune system an even bigger edge? At Peak Hydration, we offer powerful IV add-ons that can be customized to your IV therapy bag. These additions are perfect for providing an extra boost to fend off germs and keep your body operating at its best during cold and flu season.
Here are our top IV add-on recommendations to give those germs a run for their money:
N-Acetylcysteine (NAC): This powerhouse antioxidant supports liver detoxification and helps reduce oxidative stress, which can weaken your immune defenses. NAC is a fantastic addition for staying resilient and speeding up recovery.
Zinc: Essential for immune health, zinc plays a key role in the production of white blood cells that fight off infections. Adding zinc to your IV therapy bag ensures your body gets the dose it needs to stay strong and healthy.
Vitamin C: Known for its immune-boosting properties, Vitamin C is critical for repairing tissues and protecting your cells from damage. While it’s a staple in many of our drips, adding extra Vitamin C can give your immune system the reinforcement it needs to tackle seasonal challenges.
Glutathione: A powerful antioxidant that detoxifies your body, reduces inflammation, and strengthens your immune system to keep you feeling your best.

Tips for Staying Healthy Between Sessions!
With Peak Hydration’s advanced IV therapy and Wellness Shots, you’re already taking the most effective step to bolster your immune system during cold and flu season. But staying healthy isn’t just about what you do during your visit—it’s also about maintaining those benefits between sessions.
By incorporating simple, yet impactful habits into your daily routine, you can enhance the effects of your IV therapy and keep your immune system strong all season long. Here’s how you can stay proactive at home:
Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water! It sounds simple but it is challenging for many people to get enough oral hydration every day! Consider incorporating herbal teas into your daily routine, mix a few tablespoons of your favorite juice into your water or opt for carbonated water instead of soda and you’ll be ahead of the game!
Eat Nutrient-Rich Foods: Make sure you’re adding whole foods like fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins into each meal to fuel your immune system.
Practice Good Hygiene: Wash your hands thoroughly and regularly with antibacterial soap and warm water and avoid touching your face.
Get Quality Sleep: This is a tough one over the holidays but a well-rested body is better equipped to fight off illness. Try to get at least 8 hours of sleep a night, take naps if you are short on sleep or lie down for a 15 minute breathwork or meditation session–it may not sound like much but a little can add up and help your body stay strong and healthy!
Move Your Body: Regular exercise during cold and flu season is a great way to help fight off those infections! By adding moderate-intensity exercise into your routine you can boost your immune system by improving circulation and move those immunity cells and antibodies throughout your body, reduce inflammation, enhance your body’s natural defenses and lower stress hormones! Walking or cycling are great options for moderate-intensity exercises but if you’re not thrilled about the idea of going out in the cold, check out our wellness partners for incredible classes and programs that will help you stay healthy and fit!
