IV Drips for Performance
Our Performance Selections are ideal for those who are active; clients who would like to bring down inflammation, decrease joint issues and sore/achy muscles for recovery post-event, or for individuals who need the additional stamina for an upcoming event.
Peak Hydration takes your athletic performance goals as seriously as you. Pushing your body to the limit consumes large amounts of your body’s hydration; in addition, restrictive diets (think caloric limits, high protein/low carb to reach competition weight, etc.) limit the availability of vital nutrients.
According to the American College of Sports Medicine and the International Olympic Committee, some of the most common micronutrients found to be lacking in athletes’ diets are iron, zinc, magnesium, calcium, the B vitamins, vitamin D, and antioxidants such as vitamins A, C, E, and selenium.1,2 Furthermore, it is noted that 100% of the diets examined were deficient in iodine, 95% were deficient in vitamin D, 80% were deficient in zinc, 65% were deficient in vitamin E, and 50% were deficient in calcium.2
These nutrients are beneficial for increasing stamina, energy production & endurance prior to workouts and athletic events, as well as assisting in recovery, repair & rehydration of the cells, muscles & tissues and may assist in decreased joint pain, aches and inflammation.
