IV infusions: The body-boosting trend!<br />
If you hate needles, you probably stay far away from them unless they are necessary<br />
to save your life. Nowadays, however, people are subjecting themselves increasingly<br />
to needles by choice – thanks to the availability of intravenous (IV) vitamins that are<br />
gaining popularity by the day.<br />
What are they? The infusion treatments target a variety of wellness needs by<br />
replenishing hydration, aiding recovery from illness or jet lag, providing hangover<br />
relief and restoring vitamin and nutrient levels, while refreshing cosmetic<br />
appearance and revitalising overall well-being.<br />
Need to know: A consultation with a medical doctor is essential before any IV<br />
infusions to rule out any liver, kidney or heart disease. High-risk patients with<br />
epilepsy, diabetes, sickle-cell disease or cancer also need to be identified<br />
by your attending doctor. Ask yourself the following: Is the place that you<br />
visit<br />
safe? Do they have all the medical equipment and training as per the<br />
standards required by the Department of Health?<br />

Aesthetic glitter bottles ...<br />
In a transparent bottle, just add<br />
water and glue in an 80–20<br />
ratio. (You can use soapy water<br />
instead of glue.) Then add a lot<br />
of glitter! You can twirl the bottle<br />
or tilt it upside down! Seeing the<br />
glitter flow calms people down.<br />
This is one of the easiest hacks<br />
out there and many people<br />
suffering from anxiety have<br />
claimed that this helps.
