Glow From the Inside Out: The Incredible Benefits of IV Vitamin C
Backed by science. Loved by your body.
At Surya Medicine, we believe in supporting the body’s natural ability to heal, protect, and thrive. One of our favorite therapies? IV Vitamin C—a powerhouse for immunity, radiant skin, and whole-body vitality.
Immune Powerhouse
Vitamin C is essential for immune defense. It supports both the innate and adaptive immune systems, enhancing the function of white blood cells like neutrophils, boosting microbial killing, and promoting the clearance of spent immune cells to reduce tissue damage [Carr & Maggini, 2017].
Research shows that:
Vitamin C enhances chemotaxis, phagocytosis, and the generation of reactive oxygen species in immune cells.
It supports B- and T-cell function and may modulate cytokine production during infections.
Deficiency impairs immunity and increases the risk of infections. Conversely, infections deplete Vitamin C stores due to increased metabolic demand [Carr & Maggini, 2017].
Skin Health + Collagen Support
Vitamin C is a key cofactor in collagen production—a protein that keeps your skin firm, smooth, and strong. It also supports wound healing and protects skin from environmental stress by enhancing antioxidant capacity [Carr & Maggini, 2017].
It has been shown to:
Increase collagen gene expression in fibroblasts
Enhance skin barrier function and reduce oxidative damage
Shorten wound healing time and improve skin texture when used consistently
Energy + Post-Viral Recovery
If you’re recovering from illness or battling fatigue, IV Vitamin C may help restore your vitality.
A 2021 systematic review found that high-dose IV Vitamin C significantly reduced fatigue, especially in patients with post-viral fatigue, including those with long COVID. It also improved related symptoms like brain fog, sleep disturbances, depression, and pain [Vollbracht & Kraft, 2021].
Why it works:
Infections and inflammation increase oxidative stress and deplete Vitamin C stores
Vitamin C supports mitochondrial energy production, neurotransmitter synthesis, and blood vessel health
IV delivery bypasses absorption issues and delivers 100% bioavailability directly to tissues
Why IV?
While oral Vitamin C is helpful, it has limited absorption. IV Vitamin C:
Achieves plasma concentrations 50–100x higher than oral doses
Delivers faster, more noticeable results
Is especially effective in cases of fatigue, inflammation, or chronic illness
Is IV Vitamin C Right for You?
You may benefit from IV Vitamin C if you:
Get frequent colds or viral infections
Are recovering from COVID-19 or another illness
Struggle with low energy or chronic fatigue
Want to support glowing skin and healthy aging
Need a natural immunity or antioxidant boost
