1/3Dear Dr Provan. May I take this opportunity to share my own experience on this grey topic. My reflection is purely professional, and I do not intend to discredit anyone's opinion or endorse any ‘unverified management strategies’. In my humble opinion, the answer is far more nuanced than binary as critics claim. First, we clinicians should be transparent about the limits of our training; standard med-school and postgraduate curricula often only skim these topics. (if at all). This academic space largely belongs to accredited nutritionists. Access to high-quality research does not equal the ability to appraise it using the GRADE framework to evaluate bias and evidence quality;

Another fantastic educational video, from Dr Provan. Not everyday do we get access to a senior hospital consultant haematologist. Take advantage of the Dr’s huge knowledge, by coming along to his lives at 8pm most evenings.

I read that some supplements aren’t metabolized very easily by the body and also any overload can stress the body as it tries to manage it.

[2/3] Second, we need to look at risk in context. IV therapy certainly carries risks like phlebitis, transient hypotension, or renal stones with high-dose Vitamin C. However, playing a devil's advocate,(Perhaps I am shooting myself here) this is hard to defend against routinely bombarding individuals with pharmaceuticals e.g statins, SSRI etc often with marginal gains but qualitatively more side effects compared to IV nutritional therapy.

3/3] Finally, we must consider the real-world patient. Between ultra-processed diets, chronic stress, and poor gut absorption, functional nutrient deficits are genuine. I frequently see individuals with fatigue, brain fog, or fibromyalgia left in clinical limbo between primary and secondary care. Critics call IV therapy an "expensive way to fill a bladder," but for a struggling patient, even a short window of improved energy carries immense real-world value.I am neither strictly for nor against IV therapy. Talking academia sounds nice in research circles; translating that into real-world benefits is a different story, where people see symptom relief, not statistical or clinical significance. Provided they understand the costs, risks, and realistic outcomes under proper medical oversight, to me it remains a valid individual choice. This is where research and experience matter: where a professional can clearly identify the 1 or 2 individuals among the masses who will truly benefit. Thank you. PS It's always a pleasure listening to you, and you've given me an incentive to jump onto this platform!
