Hi, everyone. I'm Dr. Sayana. I'm a board certified internist and functional medicine MD today I'm going to talk about why we offer IV therapy. Nutrition is a huge aspect of health. However, at many times, we live in such a busy world where we're not paying attention to what we're eating, or we're eating the same processed foods daily, or we have gut issues where we're not able to absorb all these amazing nutrients from our healthy food and either due to a gut bacteria. A common condition that we diagnose and treat is something called sibo, small intestinal bacterial overgrowth which can cause malabsorption. So you're not. You're not absorbing your food or you don't have enough stomach acid to assimilate your nutrients from this food. So when patients come to us complaining of severe fatigue, fibromyalgia, chronic symptoms that they haven't been able to get relief from, usually IV nutrient therapy can help them, help them alleviate some of these symptoms while we work on nutrition, while we work on treating their gut, while we work on the root cause. So if you're interested in getting an iv, please come and check us out. We're in Sherman Oaks inside the Westfield Fashion Square Mall. Most of these procedures with IV therapy can be covered by insurance. Call our staff or look on our website and find out more. I look forward to meeting you. Thanks so much for listening.
