IV vitamins?

New 'bar' offers IV therapy

SANTA ROSA BEACH. Fla. (WJHG/WECP) -- It's not shaken, stirred or even served in a glass, but it is a liquid some might compare to those familiar concoctions.

A new bar on 30A in the Florida panhandle isn't serving up your traditional cocktails, but these "bartenders" are filling you up with exactly what you need.

"So we have different cocktails that we've formulated," says Aesthetic Clinique Nurse Sandy Weiner.
Nurses at this bar say their mixtures cure illnesses, reverse aging and do much more.

"Whether they've overindulged the night before or have been in the sun, we can help them hydrate and recover from that," said Weiner.

All you have to do is just sit in a chair and within 30 minutes, you'll begin to feel the buzz.

"So you will notice an immediate improvement in your energy level, your mood; you'll sleep well that night," Weiner explained.

Weiner says using an IV is the best method to get the vitamins your body needs fast.

1. I used to work with a guy who was a EMT

He swore the best cure for a hangover was an IV hydration solution and a little O2. But I agree, this does indeed seem like a scam. The Florida version of an O2 bar.

2. Is this even legal?

I understand that it's a nurse starting the IV but, usually, it's under a doctor's orders.

and snort em.

4. Years ago Linus Pauling touted IV Vit C

as a cure all for what ails you... Sounds like a variation on an old tune...
Pauling won a Nobel Prize in Chemistry so he had some street cred..

5. Pauling may have had some street cred, but he was totally wrong

about massive doses of Vitamin C being good for you.
