What is the Cinderella Drip?
Cinderella Drip is a particular type of IV Therapy that delivers concentrated vitamins intravenously and provides various benefits to your skin, beauty, and health. The drip components include ascorbic acid (vitamin C) and Glutathione, alpha-lipoic acid is not included but can also be added for better results.
The Cinderella drip can help boost skin clarity, improve skin radiance and brightness, detoxify impurities, and even fight the signs of aging. Now let’s dive into each ingredient and discuss the benefits of each.
Ascorbic Acid
Ascorbic acid or Vitamin C is a vitamin found in many foods, primarily vegetables and citrus, and is a critical component in the Cinderella drip. While you probably knew that vitamin C was good for you, you may not know why. So, we will break it down here.
Antioxidant Properties
Ascorbic acid is a potent antioxidant. This means it helps defend cells against free radicals—which occur when our bodies produce energy from oxygen. Unfortunately, free radicals may also form due to exposure to environmental pollutants, radiation, cigarette smoke, alcohol consumption, and more. When we have too many free radicals for our bodies’ antioxidants to fight, we can develop oxidative stress—an imbalance between excessive oxidation and inadequate antioxidant activity that can cause cell damage resulting in disease and aging.
Lightens Dark Spots
Ascorbic acid can also help you achieve an even complexion and combat hyperpigmentation. Vitamin C has been shown to lighten dark spots and even skin tones by working with your body’s natural antioxidant enzymes to decrease melanin (pigment) production in skin cells.
Boosts Collagen Production and Detoxifies Skin
The skin benefits of Ascorbic Acid don’t stop there. This beauty-boosting antioxidant boosts collagen production, which can improve skin health and offer a youthful appearance. Increased collagen production can help reduce the appearance of wrinkles on your face, give your skin a more plump and elastic texture, and prevent breakouts. Collagen also provides structure to your bones, muscles, cartilage, tendons, ligaments, and more.
In addition to boosting collagen production, Vitamin C can also help detoxify the skin, which can prevent cell damage and visible signs of aging.
Boosts Immune System
Vitamin C can also help boost immune function and help fight illness. That’s because ascorbic acid helps support critical components of your immune system (specifically T-lymphocytes). These cells help fight disease by targeting invaders like bacteria or viruses.
Glutathione
A nutrient found in both plants and animals, Glutathione is an antioxidant used by your body to fight free radicals and is another key ingredient in the Cinderella Drip. Glutathione also has potential anti-cancer benefits and can help repair DNA damage caused by toxin exposure. Since we make less of it as we age, Glutathione is often recommended for seniors and people with chronic illnesses. Keep reading to learn about the other benefits Glutathione offers.
Due to its potent antioxidant properties, Glutathione helps detoxify critical organs such as the liver, kidneys, lungs, and intestines. In addition, some research indicates that Glutathione can even fight or slow fatty liver diseases.
Improves Insulin Sensitivity
Glutathione has also been shown to improve insulin sensitivity, making it an excellent option for those with diabetes or diabetic predisposition.
Improves Skin Tone and Complexion
IV therapy with Glutathione also has the power to combat age spots and improve skin tone and complexion, especially when used in conjunction with vitamin C. It can also speed up skin healing and help wounds heal faster.
Exceptional Detoxifying Capabilities
This super antioxidant has exceptional detoxifying capabilities and can cleanse your body of free radicals and other harmful toxins that can otherwise accumulate in tissues. In addition to its liver benefits, when used for IV therapy, Glutathione can also reduce the stress on your kidneys by pushing toxins through your body more quickly.
Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA)
Alpha Lipoic Acid, or ALA, is a naturally-occurring antioxidant called the “universal antioxidant” found in the body and foods. It is excellent for fighting free radicals and assisting with carbohydrate breakdown and, therefore, energy production. While this does not come in the Cinderella Drip by default, we offer it as a treatment add-on.
Antioxidant
Similar to other components in this Cinderella intravenous drip, ALA is an antioxidant, so it can help protect you against cell damage. In addition to attacking free radicals itself, evidence has also suggested that ALA may help regenerate used antioxidants and make them active again.
ALA is another ingredient that can do wonders for your skin. It can help fight signs of skin aging and raise the natural production of other antioxidants, such as Glutathione, which can improve blood flow to your skin and help fight wrinkles.
In addition to its skin benefits, ALA has anti-inflammatory properties, which can help reduce information or swelling due to injury. This also makes it an excellent option for those who suffer from chronic conditions like arthritis and autoimmune disorders.
Helps with Energy Production
Another benefit of Alpha Lipoic Acid is its ability to help boost energy production. ALA increases your cells’ sugar uptake and, therefore, converts food to energy quicker and more efficiently. This means that it can help fight fatigue and give you an extra pep in your step.
How Often Can I Get the Drip?
You can safely receive the Cinderella Drip every seven to ten days.
