What is a Myers’ Cocktail?

A Myer’s cocktail is a specifically formulated mixture of medical grade vitamins and minerals that are administered to a patient via an intravenous injection in order to replenish insufficient cellular nutrient levels.

This IV nutrient therapy was created by Dr. John Myers in the mid 1960’s to treat patients suffering from various medical conditions who would benefit from the boost in nutrient levels that resulted from the treatment (Intravenous nutrient therapy: the “Myers’ cocktail” 2002).

What is in a Meyers’ cocktail?

The specific ingredients in a Myers’ cocktail can vary depending on what condition is being treated. Ingredients include various vitamins and minerals such as:

B complex: This vitamin is beneficial in the promotion of healthy skin and hair, helps maintain memory, and is beneficial in the reduction of stress levels.
Vitamin C: This vitamin is a beneficial antioxidant, and aids in fighting illness and disease, even cancer.
Magnesium chloride: This is beneficial in the prevention and reduction of inflammation, and helps in supporting healthy immune systems. Magnesium Chloride is also beneficial for the treatment of conditions such as high blood pressure, migraines, and asthma.
