Our world is increasingly filled with more of everything—more people, more products, more sights and smells. And with this, there is an ever increasing number of chemicals around us, many of which cause irritation.
For people who frequently experience varying symptoms like headaches, brain-fog, or fatigue, and notice a high sensitivity to powerful fragrances, it might not just be a coincidence. Instead, what you might be dealing with is Multiple Chemical Sensitivity.
What Is Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS)?
Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS, also known as idiopathic environmental intolerance, or IEI) is characterized by a sensitivity to a wide array of chemical exposures. It’s not a specific allergy but rather an environmental illness. Think of it as your body’s overarching response to the many different chemicals that we experience every single day.
It can manifest in many ways, including:
- Headaches
- Rashes
- Asthma
- Fatigue
- Aches
- Mental fog
- Dizziness
- Nausea
- Flushing of the face
What Causes It?
MCS is usually triggered by small amounts of different chemicals, particularly ones with strong odors. Some common triggers are:
- Tobacco smoke
- Perfume
- Cleaning supplies
- Paint
- Plastic
- Air fresheners
- Gasoline
There are no specific tests, and there’s debate within the medical field about how to classify MCS. But that doesn’t mean your symptoms aren’t still there and very real. So the question becomes, what can you do about it?
Through our pursuit of wellness solutions that look at the whole picture, we’ve found infusions to be one answer that can be highly beneficial for people living with MCS.
What are Glutathione Infusions?
Glutathione infusions are a type of IV infusion: a way to administer medications, hydration, and nutrients directly into the bloodstream, quickly and effectively.
Glutathione (GSH) is the antioxidant peptide given through the IV. It occurs naturally in the body and is an essential element in our daily lives. Found in every cell but primarily produced in the liver, GSH is made of three amino acids (glutamate, cysteine and glycine) and is one of the most important antioxidants in the human body.
Essentially, GSH helps repair cells and is a powerful way our bodies detoxify and naturally eliminate toxins.
How Can GSH Infusions Help MCS?
Studies have shown that MCS patients have exhibited lower levels of GSH in their bodies. This means that without the protection of GSH, our bodies are much more sensitive to the elements and outside irritation.
The detoxifying properties of GSH and the quick-acting nature of IV infusions let Glutathione infusions rid the body of toxins. GSH in the infusions supports the protection and regulation of cells, proteins, lipids, and DNA from oxidative damage.
What is the Process for an IV Infusion?
The Glutathione infusion takes one hour, and there is typically no downtime in most cases. Come in, relax, and let life slow down during your treatment. At Introspect Wellness, we do our best to make every procedure as comfortable as possible. IV infusion appointments are perfect before work, during your lunch break, or before an event. About an hour, minimal downtime, meaningful benefits.
