Ingredients

What's in it, and what each does

Every ingredient in your Gut Recovery IV drip: what it is and the role it plays in the body.

  • 01
    Ringer's Lactate (RL)
    Balanced electrolyte solution containing sodium, potassium, calcium and lactate. Selected for cases involving fluid loss, exercise recovery or pH balance.
  • 02

    Vitamin B12
    Methylcobalamin: a coenzyme involved in DNA synthesis, neurological function and the production of red blood cells.
  • 05
    Zinc
    Essential mineral required for over 300 enzymes. Involved in immune function, wound healing, protein synthesis and cellular signalling.
  • 06
    L-glutamine
    The most abundant amino acid in the body. Involved in gut barrier function, immune-cell metabolism and post-training recovery.
  • 07
    Magnesium sulfate
    Essential mineral involved in muscle function, nervous-system regulation, energy metabolism and over 300 enzymatic reactions throughout the body.
  • 08
    Glutathione
