How Does a Myer’s Cocktail Affect Your Energy Level?

November 7, 2023 by Dr. Daniel Hoover

Myer’s cocktail is a form of IV therapy, the same kind of IV you would see delivering medicine in a hospital setting. However, Myer’s cocktail IV therapy uses the exact mechanism to provide vitamins and minerals directly to the bloodstream. Myer’s cocktail has a variety of uses for nearly everyone. However, it is beneficial to athletes and older adults. As we age, our bodies absorb nutrients differently; sometimes, we can use some help to return to balance.


You may be wondering how Myer’s cocktail affects your energy levels, and today, we’ll explore the answer to that question.

What Is Myer’s Cocktail IV Therapy?

Myer’s cocktail was developed in the 70s to provide a mix of essential nutrients your body needs for overall health and wellness. The perfectly crafted blend provides the body with Vitamin C, B Complex, Magnesium, and Calcium. Since the 70s, Myer’s cocktail has been shown to have a number of benefits. Some of which include aiding and alleviating some of the following ailments and conditions:

  • Increased Immune System Function
  • Chronic Fatigue Syndrome 
  • Adrenal Fatigue
  • Fibromyalgia
  • Depression
  • Migraines
  • Respiratory Problems
  • Acute/Chronic Infections
  • Detoxification

Due to the nutrients being delivered directly to the bloodstream, Myer’s cocktail bypasses the digestive system. By doing this, the nutrients are available nearly immediately compared to oral supplements, which take the body time to break down and absorb. Some nutrients aren’t absorbed to their fullest potential during this time compared to IV therapy, which will provide a much more concentrated dose of vitamins and minerals the body needs for essential functions.

Give Yourself that Little Boost

In our busy lives, it’s likely you’ve missed a meal due to a deadline or sacrificed some sleep to run errands. We’ve all felt a bit exhausted from time to time. It’s easy to reach out for an energy drink when you’re feeling tired. However, you may not be aware that what you may be consuming is loaded with sugar, caffeine, and other chemicals. And while this can give you a short burst of energy, it’s only a matter of time before you have to deal with the dreaded “crash.”

Myer’s cocktail IV therapy can help many people who may not have the time to maintain their bodies in balance properly. IV therapy directly infuses nutrients into the bloodstream. This allows the body to take full advantage of the nutrients as they become available. There’s no need to wait for you to digest a healthy meal or breakdown supplements. Many people feel an immediate boost in energy levels during or shortly after a session. Patients managing fatigue comment that they feel revitalized for days and, in some cases, weeks. This is because Myer’s cocktail IV therapy directly provides fluids infused with vitamins and minerals to the bloodstream, and your body absorbs the nutrients quickly, becoming readily available to your cells. Any excess nutrients will eventually be processed and expelled by the body.

As mentioned, many patients report prolonged effects, such as feeling energized for days or weeks. Typically, this is because, for some, their body may lack the essential nutrients the IV therapy provides. Conventional oral supplements can be helpful if you already have healthy habits, though for many, oral supplements simply take too long for the body to absorb them. The digestive process may reduce nutrient bioavailability as well.
