For both men and women, hormones act as essential communicators between cells in our bodies and are responsible for regulating many of our bodies’ functional systems. However, as we age, our hormones begin to change or become imbalanced. Many people explore hormone optimization as a potential solution. Quench Wellness in Chicago, IL is committed to offering the best hormone replacement therapy options for both men and women.

Hormone Optimization: What You Need to Know

Understanding Hormones

Hormones guide our bodies through many important functions, such as growth, metabolism, and reproduction. They are produced by glands that make up the endocrine system, and they are constantly sharing information with organs that tell them how to behave, when to activate, and how to expend energy (and for how long). If we didn’t have hormones, we wouldn’t know when to eat or sleep, or when to stop.

Many things can affect or inhibit hormone production, including age, health conditions, and chemical interference. While regular shifts in hormones throughout the day and during various physiological cycles, persistent and irregular imbalances can present health problems. Too little or too much of any hormone can wreak havoc on the body and create unpleasant side effects.

The Endocrine System

The organs that produce hormones and make up the endocrine system include the reproductive organs (testes and ovaries), pituitary gland, pineal gland, thyroid gland, hypothalamus, parathyroid, thymus, pancreas, and adrenal gland. These glands produce different hormones for different targets and send these hormones into the bloodstream to reach their intended destinations. Disruptions in the endocrine system can alter the amount of hormone reaching the bloodstream or being delivered to the cells and organs that require them.

Sometimes chemicals in our environment can also affect the function of the endocrine system. Aptly named, these endocrine disrupters are linked to adverse effects in hormone production and other functional systems. Unfortunately, these chemicals are difficult to avoid – they are found in everyday products such as plastic bottles, cosmetics, toys, and detergents.

Why Hormone Changes Occur

Hormone changes can occur for several reasons. The endocrine system generally declines in functionality as part of the aging process. Even if hormone levels stay the same, the receptors for those hormones become less sensitive as we get older. However, most of the time, the issue is with a decrease in the levels of hormones as we age.

Health conditions can also affect hormone production. Diabetes is one of the most common endocrine disorders. In this disorder, the pancreas does not produce the right amount of insulin. Conditions that cause poor circulation can also impair endocrine function, as hormones rely on a healthy blood supply to reach their targeted locations in the body.

Women and Hormones

Women have a unique set of hormones for navigating life changes such as menstruation, pregnancy and birth, and menopause. The latter receives a good bit of attention because the symptoms can be frustrating, and at times, even dangerous. During menopause, the ovaries slow their production of estrogen and progesterone, which has a number of side effects.

As these hormones decline, the pituitary gland tries to overcompensate. It produces an excess of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). To navigate this cycle, many women choose to explore hormone replacement therapy (HRT) to ease their way into menopause. At this time in a woman’s life, it is more important than ever to be living a healthy lifestyle and listening to the body’s needs.

Men and Hormones

While the term “male menopause” gets thrown around quite a bit, this isn’t exactly an appropriate description of the hormonal changes men experience as they age. Only some men experience what is called andropause, which is a decline in testosterone production. Men who are concerned about their testosterone levels can have our doctors order a test to measure production.

Symptoms

For women experiencing hormonal imbalances, symptoms will vary. However, the most commonly reported symptoms include hot flashes, insomnia, fatigue, and even depression. Osteoporosis is a complication of the hormonal changes during menopause, so it is important to have regular screenings during this time.

Commonly experienced symptoms for men include a decrease in muscle mass, loss of cognitive function, erectile dysfunction, low libido, and loss of energy. Similarly to women, supportive self-care is important, as depression and fatigue are side effects of testosterone loss. Also as for women, osteoporosis is a risk for men at this time, so bone density screenings are important.

What Is Hormone Optimization?

The goal of hormone optimization is to assess whether hormone levels in the body are below their optimal threshold and, if so, to treat this by developing a plan to improve hormone function. If your body is simply not producing the hormones as it should, HRT could be an option. This treatment can either supplement under-produced hormones or replace them altogether.

Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) is a form of HRT that uses hormones that are chemically identical to the ones naturally produced by our bodies. While traditional HRT uses synthetic or animal-derived hormones, BHRT uses only those that are plant-derived. BHRT has been shown to improve well-being in several areas, but especially in restoring balance to the endocrine system.

How Are Hormone Deficiencies Diagnosed?

If you are experiencing symptoms, our doctors will schedule a physical exam and consultation with you. We will ask you about the duration and severity of your symptoms and begin to suggest possible diagnostic tests. Most hormones can be detected with blood tests, and this is likely where we will want to begin.

Forms of Hormone Replacement Therapy

There are several ways to receive HRT. Tablets are the most common and are typically taken once a day. Other common methods include skin patches and gels. However, Quench Wellness specializes in bioidentical hormone replacement pellet therapy for both men and women.

Pellet therapy is an efficient method because it allows for consistency in dosage as opposed to creams or gels. The pellet is inserted subcutaneously just under the skin, where it provides a constant flow of hormones to the body. The process is quick, simple, and painless with the use of a local anesthetic.

Signs Hormone Optimization Therapy May Be Right for You

Mood Changes

Many of us are quick to dismiss irritability or mood changes as normal responses to our busy schedules and daily frustrations, and this may be true in many cases. However, if you find yourself experiencing severe ups and downs, debilitating anxiety, or lengthy depressive episodes, you should speak with our doctors about your options. Hormone replacement therapy may be one way to ease these symptoms.

Physical Changes

Hormone imbalances may cause unexplained weight loss or weight gain, low libido, and changes in bowel or bladder habits. Our doctors will ask questions to discern how long you have been experiencing the symptoms and what helps alleviate them. By narrowing down which hormones may be causing specific problems, we can develop a treatment plan tailored to your hormone needs.

Increased Risk of Bone Loss

As we age, our bone density decreases. If you are particularly at risk for falls or fractures, HRT may be a good choice for you. Also, the spine is at risk of degeneration as we get older, so protecting the vertebrae and discs in between them becomes increasingly important.

Fatigue

There is a big difference between being tired and being constantly fatigued. Being tired may result from a poor night’s sleep, a stressful day, or being mentally drained at work. Being fatigued is a feeling of being unusually exhausted day after day. If you are fighting to stay awake before the evening hours, it might be a good idea to discuss this with our doctors.

Failure of Alternative Treatments

If you have tried alternative methods to improve hormone balance and they have not worked, hormone replacement may be the key to a sustainable solution. On average, many patients find that their symptoms lessen or go away completely within one to two weeks of beginning treatment. Don’t wait to have a conversation with our experts about the potential benefits HRT can have for you.

Benefits of Hormone Optimization

Reduction of Symptoms

Hormone replacement therapy has been studied for nearly a century. Anecdotal and empirical data have shown that patients report more manageable symptoms quickly after treatment begins. Thus, the most obvious benefit to HRT is the relief it provides from the discomfort of side effects from hormone loss. By restoring balance to the endocrine system, the body functions more optimally and is relieved of challenging symptoms.

Restored Quality of Life

Many men and women find that the increase in energy they feel after beginning treatment inspires them to resume activities they had abandoned when they were suffering from the side effects of hormone loss. Regaining enjoyment from hobbies and work often has a domino effect. People receiving HRT often find that they have new motivation to live a healthier and more active lifestyle.

Supporting Healthy Hormones

Risk factors for hormone imbalances include smoking, being overweight, drinking too much alcohol, and having poor sleeping habits. Even with HRT, it is helpful to reduce these risk factors to support a healthy environment for balancing hormones. By making lifestyle changes and being watchful of stressors, you can take control of many factors affecting hormone imbalance.

Be Mindful

The benefits of stress reduction have been shown over and over again to reduce the effects of many physical ailments. The mind-body connection has been proven to activate the parasympathetic nervous system, which in turn reduces cortisol levels in the body. Cortisol can be a damaging hormone, so by introducing calming practices such as yoga and meditation into your lifestyle, you are one step closer to a more balanced endocrine system.

Get Exercise

It seems obvious that exercise will improve the body’s functional systems, but it may not be as obvious that physical activity actually releases a hormone called endorphins into the bloodstream. Endorphins are secreted by the pituitary gland and are responsible for reducing pain and supporting a more effective stress response. These hormones increase feelings of well-being and reduce feelings of stress and depression.

Watch Eating Habits

The ghrelin hormone is what signals to your body that you have eaten enough and are full. However, if you do not consume the right kinds and amounts of protein, this hormone may not activate. In turn, the body’s response may be to over-eat or to eat at inappropriate times. Similarly, avoiding eating too many foods that create inflammation in the body (like simple carbohydrates) will create a more hospitable environment for maintaining a healthy hormone balance.

Get Relief Today

If you are ready to take the next step in managing your hormones, call our experts at Quench Wellness in Chicago, IL for a consultation. We take great pride in offering cutting edge hormone replacement therapy, and we would love to answer your questions. Often, a simple conversation is all it takes to determine whether hormone optimization is right for you.

Lately, you’ve noticed a familiar but unwelcome pattern. You wake feeling sluggish, by midday you have a headache, and at night, you have little or no desire for intimacy. You try to eat healthy, but time doesn’t always allow for smart choices. Despair no more: at Quench Wellness in Chicago, Illinois, we offer a variety of IV vitamin infusions that can restore balance to your body and help you feel better sooner rather than later.

What Are IV Vitamin Infusions?

The easiest answer to this question is a therapy individually researched and optimized to deliver vitamins and minerals into your vein. This approach allows our carefully curated blends to bypass the unstable environment of your gut, and the unpredictable nature of digestion, for delivery to the bloodstream. That means the organs and tissues that most need these nutrients receive them without delay. Additionally, our infusions can support a healthy lifestyle and/or help you bounce back when you don’t feel 100 percent.

IV vitamin treatments can be used to improve skin health, relieve stress, and provide a general sense of well-being. Every day, the body is slammed with toxins that come from food, drinks, and the air. While human systems are designed to eliminate these toxins, it becomes increasingly difficult to do so in the face of stress, caring for homes and family members, and going to work. Overload commonly occurs, producing such symptoms as diarrhea, fatigue, and runny nose. These serve as signs the body needs a little help, and vitamin infusions can provide relief and rejuvenation.

A Look at the Benefits

Celebrities like John Legend and Cindy Crawford aren’t quiet when it comes to their appreciation of IV vitamin infusions. But make no mistake: these therapies aren’t just for Hollywood A-listers. People with the following health conditions commonly see benefits from vitamin infusions: 

• Allergies
• Muscle spasms
• Migraines
• Chronic pain
• Asthma
• Chronic fatigue syndrome
• Angina

It’s impossible to discuss the benefits of IV vitamin treatment without also talking about its efficiency. You already know nutrients enter directly into the bloodstream, but there’s more. This method allows your body to absorb higher levels of minerals and vitamins than if you ingested them from supplements or food. Increased nutrients in the bloodstream mean higher uptake into cells, and that in turn allows the body to fight illness and stay healthy.

Why Choose this Therapy?

The concept of delivering vitamins via IV infusions is not new. In the 1960s, Dr. John Myers developed a blend of vitamins and minerals and administered it to patients suffering from many different conditions. Since that time, supplement repletion has been found to speed recovery, enhance immunity, and improve hydration levels.

Similarly, our blends are part of a growing trend moving away from treating illness and toward preventative care. This means giving your body the nutrients it needs to optimize natural processes. IV vitamin treatments are potent enough that some cosmetic surgeons recommend them to ease patient pain. They are effective enough that some personal trainers incorporate them into their workouts to improve muscle recovery. Finally, they are safe enough that people with certain chronic medical conditions can still receive infusions.

These therapies are delivered in an individualized manner, meaning some patients will need two or three per month while others will need more regularly-scheduled supplements. Together, we can choose the delivery increment that is right for you

Different Kinds of IV Vitamin Therapies

We offer nine distinct IV vitamin infusions. Each is blended with targeted ingredients to revive your body and help relieve a specific ailment. We also offer a la carte options for some blends so you get the exact nutrients you need. For patients who want to host on-site pamper parties, special events, group gatherings, or corporate wellness events, we can help you coordinate with our individual vitamin blends.

Hangover Blend

If you’ve ever had a late night of drinking and talking, you know that sometimes, it’s easy to overindulge. Our Hangover Blend can help reverse the effects of headache, nausea, brain fog, and upset stomach. This restorative cocktail features quantities of B vitamins, amino acids, and electrolytes.

Amino acids help the liver process alcohol more efficiently, while electrolytes help replace the salt and potassium your body loses when drinking. Even better, the Hangover Blend and our complimentary cucumber-infused spring water are a match made in heaven and together will help you feel hydrated and refreshed.

Performance Blend

When preparing for a big event, such as a marathon or other sporting competition, you know the importance of fueling your body with high-quality nutrients. Our Performance Blend can do just that and help with muscle soreness and fatigue, as well as post-workout pain. This combination can also optimize peak performance levels to help you reach your exercise goals.

How does Performance Blend works? It contains vitamins and minerals the body commonly loses during vigorous sport. This allows the body to maximize oxygen usage and minimize muscle fatigue. We recommend pairing this infusion with our organic coconut water, packed with potassium to help rejuvenate tired muscles. Or, you might opt to sip our organic turmeric tea, with its anti-inflammatory properties to recharge the body.

Jetsetter Blend

Don’t let traveling take its toll on a worn, depleted body. The minerals in our Jetsetter Blend can help stimulate blood flow and increase pre-travel energy levels. Or, if returning home, it can fight post-travel lassitude.

This mixture can even boost your immune system to help keep germs and bugs at bay. During your infusion, enjoy a cup of complimentary organic green tea. It’s loaded with caffeine and additional minerals to rev your internal motor and help you face the day ahead.

Boss Blend

Being a boss comes with lots of rewards, like leading the team to a deadline and seeing a project through to completion. But it’s also a position of stress, likely to leave you with poor concentration and low energy levels. Our Boss Blend can help you feel better than ever, with a powerful punch of antioxidants and cell-building ingredients. Take a break and revel in renewed vigor, especially when you choose to pair this therapy with a soothing cup of green tea.

Oasis Blend

Water is the source of life, but tell this to your tired body as you run from meeting to errand, put supper on the table, walk the dog, and help your kids with homework. Sometimes, getting the water you need is nearly impossible. Our Oasis Blend is here to help.

A full liter of saline can balance your body’s pH levels and help relieve symptoms like dry mouth, headache, fatigue, and dry skin; after, you’ll feel as serene as if you just returned from vacation. Complimentary additions can help relieve specific maladies, such as Pepcid for an upset stomach.

Immunity Blend

Feeling sluggish or experiencing repeated bouts of illness can be signs of immune system depletion. For this, we recommend our Immunity Blend, an elixir that can balance the effects of stress, poor nutrition, and sleep loss.

The hefty dose of vitamin C and zinc will kick your immune system into high gear and have you feeling better in no time. Other minerals contained within can help prevent illness and/or stop troubling symptoms like runny nose and congestion. For added wellness, sip our accompanying lemon tea.

Beauty Blend

We’ve long been told our skin is the body’s biggest organ. It only stands to reason that skincare requires the same diligence as caring for the heart or brain. But this can be a little tricky, especially in the throes of a harsh winter or sun-soaked summer.

Luckily, our Beauty Blend is chock-full of vitamins, enzymes, and amino acids to battle against dry, dull skin and/or blemishes. It’s also helpful for nails and hair, making it a truly well-rounded serum. Sipping on our green tea will deliver antioxidants and improve circulation so you look and feel more beautiful than ever.

Headache Blend

Little in this world can bring you down like the pain of a headache. Whether you suffer from migraines or tension headaches, we have an IV vitamin treatment for you. It’s our Headache Blend, infused with a calming combination of vitamins and minerals designed to ease stress and pain. To compliment your therapy, enjoy a quiet cup of caffeinated, organic white tea.

Mini Oasis Blend

If you’re too busy for a full vitamin infusion, which generally takes between 30 and 45 minutes, we suggest scheduling our Mini Oasis Blend. It offers the same rejuvenating benefits as our full Oasis, but in less time to get you out the door and onto your next appointment. This quick pick-me-up is ideal if you’re on your way to work, need to get the kids, or simply want to enjoy some “me” time.

Slim & Trim Infusion

Shedding extra belly fat or toning your figure can be tough, even if you work out regularly. Our Slim & Trim Infusion features a proprietary blend of ingredients that can:

• Burn stubborn fat stores
• Improve circulation
• Help control blood sugar
• Detoxify the body
• Boost metabolism
• Increase energy
• Combat Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD)
• Help balance female hormones

Keto Flu Blend

Keto flu refers to a series of symptoms that arise as the body transitions to the high-fat, low-carb regimen of the ketogenic diet. Such symptoms can include nausea, fatigue, and headaches – much like a real gastrointestinal bug. Our Keto Flu Blend helps combat these unwanted maladies, restore energy, and promote hydration. The end result is the aid you need to stick to your weight loss goals.

Just C

Vitamin C is known to lower blood pressure, reduce the risk of heart disease, and aid the body’s natural defenses. Of course, this list is not all-inclusive, but it helps show you the many benefits this power-horse vitamin gives. Our Just C therapy delivers a simple boost of vitamin C without the added ingredients of Immunity Blend.

Boost Your Intimacy

Women once believed that having a rewarding career and a loving family meant sacrificing romance. But our exhilarating blend can refuel your body with important vitamins, minerals, and fluids. The result is increased blood flow to improve your feelings of pleasure – and stimulate desire. Men might also experience enhanced sperm quality so that the family you long for might be just around the corner.

Get Your First infusion

IV vitamin infusions offer a variety of benefits that can be slightly tweaked to accommodate personal preferences. Whether you need a dose of energy or want to up the stakes in your workout results, we have a blend that is sure to help. Call Quench Wellness in Chicago, Illinois, today to schedule your appointment. We also accept walk-ins and look forward to being a part of your healthy living regimen.

Intravenous (IV) hydration is a safe and fast way to provide your body with the nutrition it needs. While previous IV treatments focused on helping people suffering from dehydration and eating difficulties, medical and wellness researchers have discovered new ways to use IV therapy. Because IV hydration bypasses the digestive system, it is an effective way to deliver medications, vitamins, and other nutrients directly into the bloodstream. This unique quality allows healthcare providers and wellness centers, such as Quench Wellness in Chicago, IL, to use IV hydration to restore your general health and wellbeing.

Why IV Hydration?

More Efficient

Previously, drinking fluids was considered the best solution to dehydration. However, researchers later found that when people drink water after a workout session, most of it is absorbed by the tissues in the throat and those along the digestive tract. To hydrate all the other tissues in your body after a gym session, you have to drink a lot of water. IV therapy hydrates your body more efficiently by delivering fluids directly into your bloodstream, where they travel to parts that need them most.

More Than Just Fluids

When you push your body to the limit, you lose more than just fluids. Therefore, drinking a lot of water is not always enough. To stay in top form, you also need to replenish your electrolytes and other nutrients. As we have mentioned above, drinking water is not an effective way of delivering nutrients where they are urgently needed. Neither does it replenish lost electrolytes and nutrients. IV hydration, on the other hand, refreshes and replenishes your body with nutrients instantly, leaving you hydrated and revitalized. 

Easier on Your Digestive System

Excessive intake of fluids is not always kind to your digestive system. Your body has a limit for the volume of fluids it can absorb at one time. When you drink more fluids than your body can process, your digestive system strains to get rid of the excess volume. During this process, your digestive system can also flush out some essential nutrients. Additionally, people who drink fluids with supplements often complain of irritation in their digestive tract. Since IV therapy does not rely on the digestive system to deliver nutrients and fluids to your body, it creates less waste, allowing you to retain most of the nutrients.

Reduced Recovery Time

Hydration is an important part of the recovery process. It offers relief from muscle soreness and stiffness after an intense workout session. Hydration can restore your energy levels after a tiring, long day at the office. It can also help you sober up faster. Additionally, it can help you recover from a hangover in no time after a night of overindulgence. A cocktail of vitamins, nutrients, and fluids that an IV therapy delivers will leave you feeling great and back on your feet in a flash.

Customized to Your Body

Our bodies are not the same. A one-size-fits-all approach is not always practical because we have different needs depending on our physical activity levels, general health, and lifestyle. To stay at peak form, you need to provide your body with precisely what it needs. What works for others might not work for you. Since IV hydration is completely customized to your body, it provides you with the perfect mix of vitamins, nutrients, and electrolytes, allowing you to live a fulfilling life.

Health Benefits of IV Hydration

Since the digestive system metabolizes supplements that are consumed orally, it reduces the amount of nutrients, vitamins, and medication that reach the bloodstream. Besides speeding up the effectiveness of treatment, IV therapy ensures 100% absorption for optimal use and minimal waste. Because IV therapy delivers medications and vitamins directly to the cells that need them, it can improve and impact a wide variety of body functions. Here are several health benefits of IV therapy:

Improved Wellness

Many people think wellness is just about their health. However, wellness is a general cover term for several factors that contribute to your overall wellbeing, including all aspects of your life, from your emotions to your environment. By providing your body with the tools it needs to stay in peak form, IV therapy improves not only your physical wellness, but also some aspects of your emotional wellness. It can help you fight some mental conditions, such as anxiety and depression. The ideal balance of vitamins and nutrients provided by IV therapy leaves you feeling better, and improves your immunity and mental clarity.

IV Therapy For Overall Wellbeing

To function properly, your body needs a certain amount of vitamins and nutrients. While the amount of vitamins and nutrients required for normal function varies from one person to the next, a busy routine or an unconventional lifestyle can prevent you from meeting your daily intake requirements. Taking multivitamins does not help much either because some of the nutrients are lost during the metabolic process. Additionally, people with impaired absorption find it challenging to convert nutrients into usable energy for cells effectively. IV therapy provides your body with the vitamins and nutrients it needs to:

• Boost energy levels
• Improve immune health
• Fight anxiety
• Improve symptoms of depression
• Combat fatigue
• Improve mental clarity and cognitive function
• Improve symptoms of asthma
• Reduce the symptoms of migraines
• Maintain the strength of muscles and tissues
• Accelerate wound healing
• Fight allergies

Improved Athletic Performance

Athletes push their bodies to the limit in search of excellence. To maintain peak performance and to compete at the highest level, the body requires a constant supply of vitamins and nutrients. Besides putting a strain on the muscles, intensive training and workouts also cause a gradual buildup of free radicals. IV therapy can help the bodies of athletes flush out free radicals, heal faster, hydrate adequately and quickly, and maintain muscle and tissues.

Since IV therapy for athletes also delivers amino acids, the building blocks of proteins, it promotes muscle development and plays a vital role in the recovery process. It is important to note that IV therapy is ideal for both professional and amateur athletes. You can use the powerful combination of essential nutrients and rehydration to keep your body fit for an intense training session or a competition. IV therapy can improve athletic performance by:

• Providing fast and adequate hydration
• Maintaining healthy muscle and tissue
• Reducing recovery time
• Supporting muscle recovery
• Acting as part of a recovery plan after a competition or workout
• Acting as a pre-exercise endurance boost
• Flushing out free radicals that result from intense exercise

Can Help With Addiction Recovery

Whether it’s a problem with alcohol, tobacco, opioids, or illicit drugs, addiction kills thousands of Americans each year. Around 21 million Americans struggle with at least one addiction. Besides the massive cost of human life, addiction has other far-reaching consequences, including social and economic ones. Substance abuse disorder is closely linked to depression and anxiety, for example.

According to the National Institute of Drug Abuse (NIDA), the United States loses $740 billion each year fighting drug-related crimes, on healthcare costs, and loss of work productivity. Although many people with a substance abuse disorder recognize the negative effect it has on their lives, quitting is not easy. To help those in an addiction recovery program, researchers turned to NAD IV treatments. NAD IV treatments can help those in the recovery process by:

• Reducing symptoms of withdrawal
• Repairing neurotransmitters in your brain which are damaged by addiction
• Restoring metabolic function and improve energy levels
• Detoxifying your body from the free radicals produced by long-term drug use
• Restoring cognitive function and clarity

Support Healthy Weight Loss

Three in every four Americans are overweight or obese. The two leading causes of death in the United States are heart disease and cancer, respectively. Both conditions have been closely linked to unhealthy weight. While a healthy diet and regular exercise are often suggested as the best options to help people get rid of unhealthy weight, data shows that these strategies alone do not deliver the desired results to most people. Fortunately, IV hydration can support your weight loss efforts.

Through a unique formula of fluids, vitamins, and lipotropics (fat-burning compounds), our IV hydration can boost your body’s ability to break down fat and burn calories. When incorporated in a comprehensive weight loss program that includes a healthy diet and regular exercise, IV therapy has proven to be an effective tool against unhealthy weight.

Accentuated Beauty

Through a unique combination of vitamins, nutrients, and antioxidants, IV therapy can improve the strength and health of your hair, skin, and nails. This unique formula detoxifies your body and rejuvenates your appearance from the inside, leaving you feeling and looking like the younger version of yourself. Unlike oral supplements and topical creams, IV treatments release antioxidants into your bloodstream to target and flash out free radicals. Free radicals contribute to aging and tissue damage.

Additional ingredients, such as glutathione and biotin found in the IV therapy repair UV damage, remove toxins from your body, and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. IV therapy can also:

• Slow the aging process
• Brighten the skin
• Improve blemishes

Fast Hangover Relief

Since alcohol is a diuretic, it can leave you dehydrated, especially after a night of overindulgence. When you consume large amounts of alcohol, tissues in your head and other parts of the body shrink. This shrinkage causes headaches and muscle aches. Additionally, your liver produces toxins that can cause discomfort in several parts of the body. When you overindulge and fail to replenish the fluids and nutrients, you can experience the unpleasant symptoms of a hangover. These include:

• Headaches
• Nausea, vomiting
• Stomach pain
• Increased heart rate
• Sensitivity to light and sound
• Changes in mood
• Fatigue
• Dizziness
• Muscle aches

Fast Relief

A severe hangover can last up to 24 hours. Hangovers are often hard on the body, giving you a sickly feeling. But you should not regret having a good time. An IV treatment for hangover contains vitamins, anti-nausea medication and anti-inflammatory medication, electrolytes, and a saline solution. This formula not only replenishes the electrolytes and nutrients but also rehydrates and detoxifies your body. It is so effective you can get relief within an hour of treatment.

Further Research

Because of the promising potential shown by IV hydration, health and wellness experts are working hard to realize the full potential of IV therapies. In the future, we expect IV treatments to play an even more prominent role in healthcare.

Weight loss is never a simple journey, but the good news is that it’s also not something you have to do on your own. Others have walked this path before and are waiting to help! At Quench Wellness in Chicago, IL, we use a comprehensive weight loss program to help people shed pounds while becoming healthier and happier along the way. Is this type of weight loss program for you?

Is Comprehensive Weight Loss Right for You?

You’re Sick of Things That Don’t Work

You don’t have to attempt weight loss for very long before you realize there’s a lot of bad information out there. Everyone who has ever lost a pound seems to think of themselves as an expert and shares their tips. Some of these tips might work. Some definitely don’t, and some only work for certain people or under certain circumstances.

Where are you going to find scientific information applied uniquely to you and your physiology that can actually provide the answers you need? A comprehensive weight loss program with our expert health coaches can get you answers for your concerns.

You Don’t Enjoy Feeling Tired

A lot of traditional weight loss methods consider just two things: calories in and calories out. The goal seems pretty simple. You just eat a lot less and exercise a lot more. The problem is this rarely works.

When you’re just trying to cut calories without understanding the nutritional support you need, you end up exhausted and frustrated. In the best-case scenario, you lose some weight at the expense of happiness and vitality. In the worst case, the pounds never go because you’re so exhausted you keep breaking the diet.

If all your dieting attempts leave you feeling listless and exhausted, or if you end up binging every few days just to get the energy you need to get through life, our weight loss program can help. Our program isn’t just about dropping pounds but about supporting overall wellness and nutrition so you have the vitality and energy you need.

You Don’t Want to Go It Alone

Nearly all of us have been there: trying to diet when no one else is. When you announce you’re on a diet, friends and family can be very supportive at the outset, but that support can seem to disappear at mealtimes when everyone else is enjoying things you’re trying to deny yourself.

When everyone else is turning to food to manage their stress or reward themselves after a hard day, it can be tough to stay the course. You don’t have to go through this journey alone. We all deserve and need support for something as important (and dramatic) as weight loss, and that’s what you get with a comprehensive weight loss program.

We understand that weight loss isn’t a straight path and that you’ll take some turns along the way. But through coaching, help with meal planning, nutritional support, and the help of a community, you can see success.

You’re Ready to Realign Your Lifestyle

Lots of us have dieted successfully only to see the weight come back. It can be a frustrating cycle of denial followed by returning to old habits (and often feeling a lot of guilt along the way). At Quench Wellness, we believe the only way to see real success is to change your lifestyle.

When you remove one habit, whether it’s rewarding yourself with a pastry after a hard day or spending time in front of a screen instead of out in the sun, that habit should be replaced with another, healthier one rather than simply become a hole in your life! We can help you make the right substitutions for a whole new lifestyle that gives you freedom, mobility, hope, and better health.

You’re Facing Health Concerns

If you need to lose weight but also have some health conditions to manage, it all becomes just that much more difficult. Now you have to plan your exercise and diet around specific needs and restrictions. Whether you’re trying to work around food allergies, diabetes, vitamin deficiencies, an autoimmune disorder, or any other concern, it can be a struggle to make a diet “plan” fit around your needs.

You hear other people talking about all the success they’ve had with Slim Fast, but it messes too much with your blood sugar. You’d like to do a Keto diet, but you’ve had your gall bladder out and worry about the fat load. Other friends swear by a vegetarian diet, but you consistently bump up against vitamin B deficiency.

Instead of trying to fit yourself into a diet plan, why not do it the other way around? When you work with us, we can help you design your plan around you and your needs instead of constantly trying to push a round peg into a square hole. When you find the combination of foods and nutritional support that works for you, you can finally see the success you deserve.

You Haven’t Found Exercise You Love

The right exercise plan, like the right dietary choices, is an individual thing. If you hate running, then trying to run five miles a day with your friend isn’t going to help you in the long run. It’s a chore, and when life stress hits, the first things to go are the things we hate. To develop lifelong, healthy habits you need to find the right way for you to stay active.

There’s no one type of exercise that’s perfect for everyone, and we can help you explore options you might not even have thought of. For you, the right way to stay active could be stair-stepping with friends at the gym, trail running under the trees with the sunrise at your back, or kayaking with a partner on Lake Michigan. There’s something out there for everyone!

What Is Comprehensive Weight Loss?

Our program is all about changing your lifestyle and thus your life. When your life is transformed, you will lose the weight, but you’ll also gain some things that are even more important, like greater confidence and freedom, more mobility, hope, and better health.

To get you there, we bring a combination of personal experience with weight loss journeys, training, expertise in nutrition, health coaching, and medical expertise from board-certified physicians with a passion for enhancing overall wellness.

We understand that weight loss is always personal, so your journey will be designed uniquely for you and your needs. Along the way, we can offer a variety of customizable tools to help you reach your goals.

Health Coaching

Your health coach will meet with you one-on-one and help you uncover opportunities for improving your physical, emotional, and mental state. Together, you’ll investigate all aspects of wellness that could be interfering with your health and vitality and design solutions that work for you. These might include nutritional changes, hormone balancing, stress management strategies, and weight loss.

Your health coach can help you repair your adrenal health, improve your digestion and repair your gut, overhaul your diet and nutrition to address autoimmune disorders or inflammation, or help you get the bio-identical hormone intervention you need to restore balance.

Personal Training

We offer many boutique class resources where you can get the help you need to stay safely active. As part of your overall weight loss program, exercise is essential, but it’s equally essential that you find the types of exercise that work for you.

Your personal trainer can help you find the right ways to get moving, stay safe as you exercise more, and keep track of your goals so you can see how much progress you’re making!

Community Support

We have a strong community of people who have been through weight loss and understand the journey. They can testify to how a comprehensive change in lifestyle can completely transform a life. Success is so much easier when we do life together, and you’ll derive motivation and support from our community that will help you at every step along the way.

Nutrient Fueling

Nutrition deficiencies could be holding you back from enjoying the energy and wellness you need to fuel your weight loss journey. There’s no better way to address nutrient needs than with IV infusions. We offer IV infusions of key nutrients in blends that can help you maintain an active lifestyle, feel satisfied and alert, recover from illness, or hang on through the “keto flu.”

Why an IV?


Bioavailability is always a concern with any nutrient. Bioavailability simply refers to how well the body can absorb a nutrient, and it’s a bigger issue than you might think. Consider spinach as an example. We’ve all heard that spinach has a lot of iron, but what you might not know is that it’s not very bioavailable to us.

It’s a poorer quality iron than is found in meat, for one thing, and our body struggles to make good use of it. There are also compounds in spinach that actually block iron absorption in the digestive system. Whenever you eat food or take a vitamin pill, you can never be completely sure how much of any nutrient will actually make it into your bloodstream and be used.

If you’re suffering from Crohn’s, celiac disease, or have IBS, the problem is even worse. But with IV infusions, 100% of the nutrients make it straight into your bloodstream, where they get to work instantly fueling your life.

Choices

We have infusions that can help with any issue you’re facing. Our performance blend, for instance, replaces the nutrients typically lost in a workout so you have fewer cramps and less muscle fatigue and post-workout soreness. Our Boss Blend is perfect for those who are feeling low energy at work and having trouble concentrating or sleeping.

For those with dry skin, constipation, headaches, and general fatigue, the Oasis Blend offers general nutritional support and effective hydration to get you back on your feet. If you’re fighting an illness or need to strengthen your immune system in general, our Immunity Blend includes powerhouse nutrients like vitamin C and zinc to boost your system.

Fat Burning Shots

We can also offer shots of vitamin B that can jumpstart your metabolism and give you the energy you need to burn fat while enhancing immune and liver function at the same time. Lipotropic B12 increases energy and helps your body release fat deposits from the neck, thighs, hip, stomach, and more. Best of all, you can repeat the shot every 72 hours and get the support you need to keep going on your wellness journey.

Is Comprehensive Weight Loss Right for You?


If you’re struggling with weight loss and feel that you’ve tried everything and nothing is really working, it might be time for a comprehensive approach. You don’t have to go through it alone! Visit us at Quench Wellness in Chicago, IL today and get started on a whole new you.

IV hydration is one of the newest and most effective ways to get a big boost of vitamins, minerals, and supplements into your system quickly and effectively. The experts at Quench Wellness in Chicago, Illinois are skilled in concocting and administering quality IVs that will enhance your health in one simple dose. If you haven’t experienced the wonderful world of intravenous hydration for yourself, you are truly missing out.

What Is IV Hydration?

Intravenous hydration is a method of nourishing the body by pumping fluids and necessary vitamins directly into the bloodstream. This process enables your body to take advantage of the contents of the IV immediately and is easily the most rapid, most effective way of getting your body what it needs.

Benefits

IV hydration is becoming more and more popular because there are plenty of benefits associated with the treatment. These are just some of the ways that it is superior to other methods of medication or treatment:

Immediate Hydration

Staying properly hydrated is one of the most important things that we can do for our bodies, and IVs deliver a powerful dose of hydration that can immediately revive us. It’s far more effective than simply drinking a glass of water because the bloodstream immediately disperses the hydration to the organs that need it, cutting out the stomach and gastrointestinal tract “middleman.”

Customizable IVs

Quench Wellness’s team has developed some excellent, targeted IVs that address common concerns. One of the best parts about this technology is the ability to laser-focus on our customer’s needs and use their feedback to make IVs that work.

Overall Wellness

Keeping your body at the apex health has ripple effects throughout the rest of your life. Many of our clients find that they are more focused, optimistic, and ready to take on challenges when their bodies are full of valuable minerals and vitamins and fully hydrated. A healthy body has also been linked to reduced stress and enhanced wellbeing.

Key Ingredients

Quench Wellness focuses on only the best and most effective ingredients for our IV hydration shots, and while we can’t give away all of our secrets, we can certainly share some of the superstar elements that we include in our most popular blends.

Alpha Lipoic Acid

All of us produce this incredible ingredient naturally, but we can always use more of it since humans are only capable of making minute amounts at a time. Alpha Lipoic Acid is one of the most phenomenal resources that our bodies have, and injecting ourselves with more can keep us running smoothly and might even fight off aging.

Essentially, Alpha Lipoic Acid is an immune system booster that helps ward off inflammation, keep nerves working to their best ability, and keeps our blood sugar levels low. It’s an amazing tool that helps us jump-start our health and recover after an illness.

Get a generous dose of Alpha Lipoic Acid in our Alpha Lipoic Acid Immune Boost shot: one of the most popular offerings at Quench Wellness.

Biotin

Biotin is known as the beauty vitamin, so this particular ingredient is the star of one of our most popular shots. Biotin works wonders on your nails, skin, and hair. Take Biotin regularly and you will find that your nails are stronger and less likely to peel, your skin is radiant, and your hair is glossy and free from split ends. As an added benefit, biotin can also help charge up your metabolism and keep you healthy and beautiful from the inside out by managing blood sugar.

Get your beauty dose of Biotin with our Biotin Hair & Nails Boost. Many people start to see the positive effects right away and make this particular treatment an important part of their beauty routine.

Glutathione

This particular ingredient is a powerhouse when it comes to anti-aging abilities, and many people who are yearning to tap into the fountain of youth will find what they are looking for in Glutathione.

Glutathione works by targeting free radicals and quickly healing your skin so that it looks polished, clear, and light-years younger. It’s nature’s ultimate clean-up-crew, eliminating waste rapidly and giving you the complexion that you have always dreamed of.

Quench Wellness puts the power of Glutathione into our Glutathione Detox Boost: a comprehensive shot that works wonder on your skin. It can also be combined with other shots for an even more impactful mixture.

Glycine

Glycine works by giving you more energy and helping with concentration and mood. Many of our customers adore this ingredient because it amps up their productivity and allows them to feel like they get more done in a single day. If you need a boost to take you to the next level, look no further than Glycine.

Quench Wellness’s signature Glycine Concentration Boost shot is a potent mixture of this vital ingredient, which helps you focus on what’s important and can even give you a better night of sleep and shield your heart from damage. It’s one of the most popular shots that we offer, and there is a simple reason why: it works wonders!

B12

B12 is one of those fantastic vitamins that offers up a whole incredible host of different benefits. That’s why it’s included in several IV hydration shots offered by Quench Wellness.

The benefits of B12 are hard to overstate, so we will just let our blends speak for themselves. We think that you will agree that these are results-driven applications that are designed to target specific functions that will help you live your best life and help your body work as optimally as possible.

Lipotropic B12 Fat Metabolism Boost

B12 can enhance your metabolism, allowing you to burn fat more efficiently and leading to a slimmer, more toned figure. Our Lipotropic B12 Metabolism Boost shot helps your body work at its optimal level as well as boosting your immune system and helping your liver process toxins more quickly.

Many of our customers get this shot to help them kick-start their weight loss journey or to remove some stubborn belly fat before the summer. It’s a natural and effective tool that begins to work immediately.

Vitamin B12 Energy Boost

B12 not only supercharges your metabolism, but it can also pump up your energy levels and give you smoother, softer skin. This wonder vitamin has been linked to better memory, enhanced mood, and dewy, clear skin.

Quench Wellness’s Vitamin B12 Energy Boost shot can immediately make you feel better, more productive, and ready to take on the world. It is also versatile enough to use with other shots.

Taurine

Taurine targets liver function and helps this exceptionally important organ do the best job that it can. Over time, we all put our livers through wear and tear, and a boost of Taurine can wash away some of the damage and leave us with a cleaner slate. One of the biggest things that it does is to eliminate fatty buildup around the organ, allowing it to function at a more optimal level.

Taurine has also been linked to bile salts, which the liver produces to break down cholesterol. These bile salts can keep us healthier by reducing the amount of cholesterol that we have in our bodies at any given time. It’s the key ingredient in our Taurine Liver Function Boost shot, which is a favorite treatment that can really go a long way to keeping you in the best health possible.

Vitamin C

You can get your Vitamin C in a number of different ways, and many people opt for chewable tablets, fortified foods, or just plain fruit and vegetables. While all of these are great options, there’s nothing that quite compares to getting a large dose of Vitamin C straight into your bloodstream, which is exactly what our Vitamin C Immune Booster shot offers.

Vitamin C is vital for proper immune system functionality, as it famously helps to repair damaged tissues and keeps our bodies working as well as possible. Those who are serious about their health know that getting your Vitamin C from a variety of sources is one of the best ways to stay healthy and happy.

Vitamin D

While you can certainly get a lot of Vitamin D courtesy of the sun, you can also get your fill as a booster shot from Quench Wellness. Vitamin D Booster shots are essential treatments for anyone who has to deal with lots of ice and snow, as you are most likely deficient in this ingredient. Vitamin D is necessary for good bone development and can even help your skin look more radiant.

Get a touch of sun with this IV hydration shot from Quench Wellness and keep your sunny disposition even in the darkest days of winter.

Zofran

Zofran is an anti-nausea drug that can help calm down an upset stomach and prevent vomiting. Our Zofran Boost shot delivers this powerful concoction straight into your bloodstream, helping you feel better right away.

These are just a few of the offerings you can find at Quench Wellness. There are plenty of other treatments available, and we can customize treatment to suit individual needs. IV hydration shots are easily the most effective ways to deliver necessary ingredients right into your body, and they are catching on all over the country. Take advantage of these cutting-edge treatments now and see what all of the buzz is about.
