Why Pregaming with IV Hydration Is the New Trend
Pregaming, or preparing for a night out by consuming alcohol beforehand, is a common tradition among partygoers. However, a new trend is emerging: pregaming with IV hydration therapy. This blog explores the benefits of using IV hydration before a night out and how it can help prevent the negative effects of alcohol consumption.
What Is Pregaming?
Pregaming refers to the practice of drinking alcohol before going out to a bar, club, or event. While it’s a popular way to save money or get in the mood for the evening, excessive alcohol consumption can lead to dehydration and other negative side effects. By adding IV hydration to the pregaming routine, individuals can address these concerns proactively.
How IV Hydration Helps Before Drinking
IV hydration can help prevent the dehydration that often accompanies alcohol consumption. A typical IV therapy treatment before drinking might include fluids to hydrate the body, as well as electrolytes and vitamins to boost energy levels (Heidelbaugh & Shapiro, 2018). Hydration before drinking may mitigate the severity of hangovers, reduce nausea, and increase overall energy during the night.
Science Behind IV Hydration Before Drinking
Alcohol is a diuretic, which means it increases urination and fluid loss. This dehydration can result in headaches, dizziness, and fatigue the next day (Maughan, 2013). By hydrating beforehand, you help prevent these symptoms. Additionally, vitamin B complex and other nutrients delivered through IV therapy may enhance energy and vitality throughout the night.
Conclusion
Pregaming with IV hydration is an innovative approach to maintaining energy and staying hydrated before a big night out. By replenishing fluids and vitamins before drinking, individuals can enjoy their evening while minimizing the effects of alcohol.
