Each year it feels like more and more useful information, advanced products, and powerful services make their way into our awareness, routines, and offerings. The team at VIVA Wellness wanted to take a moment to share a few of the products and concepts that have made some of the biggest impacts both within their own experience and with clients.
VIVA Wellness offers a variety of wellness products and services from our Brookfield clinic. We enjoy helping clients learn about available options and decide what may fit their individual needs.
Some medically necessary products or services may qualify for payment or reimbursement through certain FSA or HSA plans. Eligibility depends on the expense, its medical purpose, and the specific plan rules. We recommend confirming coverage with your plan administrator before making a purchase.
Plans and eligibility may vary—check with yours for the specifics, as we can make no guarantees about what is considered qualified/eligible spending.
Better Belly Drip
This IV drip is a blend of amino acids, antioxidants, and nutrients formulated with gut health in mind. Some clients choose it alongside other services such as colonics or lymphatic drainage treatments. It includes:
- Vitamin C. An antioxidant nutrient involved in collagen production and immune function.
- L-Glutamine. An amino acid used by the cells that line the intestine.
- L-Arginine. An amino acid the body uses to make nitric oxide.
- Zinc. A mineral that supports normal immune function.
- Glutathione. An antioxidant that the body also makes naturally.
- Selenium. A mineral that is part of antioxidant enzymes in the body.
The drip is also given with IV fluids, which provide hydration.

Queen of the Thrones CASTOR OIL & PACKS

Castor oil is now part of the colonic experience with VIVA Wellness because it is so relaxing. You can purchase these in our clinic or get them online at Queen of the Thrones® castor oil packs.
Glutathione and Metabolism Booster Injections
VIVA Wellness offers glutathione and metabolism booster injections among our separate wellness services. These products contain different ingredients and are not a required part of medical weight loss treatment.
If you're interested in learning more, our team can discuss the ingredients, available evidence, potential risks, and limitations of these services so you can make an informed decision.
Prolon
Especially before, during, or after periods of slightly erratic eating and straying from healthy habits, some people like the structure of a short, planned fasting program. We talk about the role of fasting here, and what we love about this type of fasting is that you can still eat!
The ProLon Fasting Mimicking Diet was developed based on research at the University of Southern California (USC) Longevity Institute. The diet includes a blend of different soups, bars, and snacks that have a specific caloric, fiber, and vitamin/mineral content designed to mimic some effects of fasting while still allowing you to eat.
- Short program: each cycle lasts 5 days.
- Convenience: all of the food for the entire 5 days is included along with vitamin supplements.
- Studied: In a published trial of 100 generally healthy adults, three monthly 5-day cycles reduced body weight, body fat, and blood pressure compared with a normal diet. The researchers noted that larger studies are still needed.
Fasting isn’t for everyone, so talk with a healthcare provider before starting, especially if you have a medical condition or take medications. If you have questions, please contact us or schedule a consult with our NPs. Otherwise, you can order your kit directly here.
If you have questions about these or would like to discuss any of our other healthcare provider-recommended products and a full suite of services, please contact us today! We look forward to being your ally in health!
