We respect and admire our patients for making their own, informed choices from the full spectrum of available options.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Example: Intravenous Therapies in the Treatment of Cancer<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Many people have heard of <strong>intravenous vitamin C as a complementary cancer therapy. <\/strong>IV vitamin C helps stimulate the immune system and discourages the growth and spread of cancer by its direct cytotoxic effect on cancer cells.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-122\" src=\"http:\/\/www.hernandezcenter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/vitamins-iv.jpg\" alt=\"vitamins-iv\" width=\"188\" height=\"140\" \/>We often suggest this therapy to our cancer patients at the Hernandez Center. <strong>What people may not know is that we also offer other IV therapies <\/strong>that can be helpful to support cancer patients, depending on their symptoms and individual needs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For example, we often administer essential nutrients by IV, between IV vitamin C sessions<\/strong>. The IV nutrients can help the patient\u2019s body generate more energy. They can also revitalize patients who are feeling generally fatigued or have low blood counts.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Among the other anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer IV therapies we offer are IV curcumin (turmeric) and IV silibinin (from milk thistle).<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>An IV treatment that can help prevent cancer patients\u2019 bodies from losing too much weight, and\/or help them gain more weight, is an IV infusion that includes a variety of amino acids.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>These are just a few of the protocols we offer to our cancer patients. <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>We\u2019ll be happy to answer your questions, and help you schedule an appointment.
