High-dose Vitamin C is crucial to a healthy body and contributes to your immune defence by supporting and directly stimulating various cellular functions of the innate and adaptive immune systems.
Vitamin C is an essential antioxidant and is responsible for many functions in the body. While not all oral supplements are fully absorbed, IV Vitamin C delivery ensures that 100% of the vitamin is bioavailable. In addition, when given high doses, Vitamin C converts from an antioxidant to an oxidative therapy.
Failing to get enough vitamin C can result in deficiencies that may result in poor wound healing, easy bruising, bleeding of the gums, and anemia. In addition, since vitamin C aids in iron absorption, a severe deficiency may cause scurvy, a disease categorized by extreme weakness, bruising, bleeding, and lethargy.
I may suggest a high-dose vitamin C IV drip if:
• You suddenly feel run down
• You have gastrointestinal issues
• You have a chronic infection
• You have a vitamin deficiency
• You have problems with malabsorption
• You have recently undergone chemotherapy
Benefits:
• Helps clear infections
• Strengthens the immune system
• Protects the body from free radical damage
• Decreases oxidative stress in cells
IV Therapy is a way to get the nutrients you lack into the bloodstream. IVs boost energy, detoxify your body, balance your immune system, and reverse aging.
Schedule your in-home IV drip on the day and time that suits you best.
Cost of IV: $50 + a $5.00 transportation fee.

Recently it has been verified that many have lost the opportunity to be regular in Ecuador due to bad information received by some facilitators.
The Visa process is a legal issue that must be carefully handled and processed and strictly adhered to the law.

A special Thursday thank you to our generous expat community!

Because the evening is designed for both the Expat and Ecuadorian community and will be fully bi-lingual with the help of our master of ceremonies and radio personality Danny (Mr. D) Tagle, this will be an amazing night for all of our guests and of course, the Dogs of FAAN who are counting on us to help build their new home in Tarqui.

The IESS is an autonomous institution responsible for implementing mandatory general insurance. In other words, its main function is to protect the rights of Ecuadorian workers who are insured. The inclusion of voluntary affiliates, which includes expatriates, has allowed the general public to access healthcare services such as medicine, medical appointments, emergencies, laboratory tests, and surgeries. This opportunity has also been utilized by foreigners who chose to settle in Ecuador. They have been able to access low-cost healthcare services, but often lack the necessary understanding of how the IESS system works.
The current situation of the IESS is concerning, as it owes money to several external service providers. This lack of financial flow is affecting its affiliates, who have stopped receiving their monthly medications, specialist appointments, or are facing months-long waits for surgeries…Continue reading
