I know it goes into your body faster but an IV seems to make me feel miraculously better even if I drink fluids and wait.

It’s because of what you said. It enters the body and rehydrates the cells so much faster.

Have you ever had an injury of any type? Sprain? Broken bone? A bruise or sore muscle even?

Do you think you’d feel even better if you healed in a minute or if the same amount of healing took place over days?
