Difficulty absorbing nutrients due to gut issues or dietary restrictions

When your gut isn't functioning properly, absorbing nutrients becomes a serious challenge - even if you eat well and take supplements. Conditions like inflammatory bowel disease, food sensitivities, SIBO, leaky gut, and chronic stress can all damage the gut's ability to absorb what your body needs. The result is that essential vitamins and minerals never make it into your bloodstream in adequate amounts. This affects nearly every system in your body, including:

• Hormone function

• Energy production

• Immune defense

• Overall healing and repair

For many patients, oral supplements simply aren't enough when gut absorption is impaired.

At Renew Health & Wellness, intravenous (IV) nutrient therapy solves this problem by bypassing the gut entirely. Nutrients are delivered directly into the bloodstream, so your body receives therapeutic levels regardless of what is happening in your digestive tract. This is especially important for nutrients that are highly dependent on gut absorption, including:

• Magnesium

• Vitamin B12

• Folate

• Iron

• Vitamin C

• Zinc

When these nutrients are depleted, the effects show up across your entire body - in your energy, your mood, your hormones, and your immune system. IV therapy ensures those gaps are filled reliably and effectively.

Dr. Jennifer Redmond, CNP, DNP begins with a thorough evaluation to understand your unique situation. This includes targeted lab work and a detailed clinical history to identify:

1. Which specific nutrient deficiencies are present

2. What is blocking your body from absorbing them through oral routes

3. Which underlying gut conditions may be contributing

From there, she designs a personalized IV therapy formulation to address your nutritional gaps directly. This is not a one-size-fits-all approach - every formula is tailored to what your body actually needs.

IV therapy at Renew Health & Wellness works alongside a broader functional medicine approach to gut healing. While IV nutrients replenish your body immediately, Dr. Jennifer Redmond, CNP, DNP also works to treat the root causes of your gut dysfunction. This may include:

• Gut microbiome support to restore healthy bacterial balance

• Anti-inflammatory dietary protocols to reduce gut irritation

• Treatment of conditions such as SIBO, leaky gut, or food sensitivity-driven intestinal inflammation

Glutathione is also incorporated into IV formulas to support gut mucosal healing and whole-body detoxification as your gut recovers.

For patients with impaired nutrient absorption, IV therapy is not simply a wellness enhancement - it is a clinically meaningful intervention. Your body cannot function, heal, or thrive when it is running on empty. At Renew Health & Wellness, IV nutrient therapy ensures that no matter what your gut is going through, your body still gets exactly what it needs.
