Natural therapies delivered intravenously can help you get the best out of life via a more effective method than traditional oral supplements. 

One of these treatments is curcumin, a compound with numerous benefits for the whole body. 

What is curcumin?

Curcumin is found in the curcuma longa plant, whose roots are used to create the ground yellow spice turmeric, often used in curries and South Asian cuisines. It is one of the curcuminoids, the active plant compounds, that make up approximately three per cent of the plant’s root. 

The wellness industry has promoted turmeric as a shortcut to better health, through pills, in drinks such as shakes and lattes, and in supplements. However, it is actually the curcumin found in turmeric that is the effective part. 

Clinical research has shown that an effective dose of curcumin is 1,000mg per day. Given the percentage of active curcumin compound in ground turmeric, it would take a very large amount of the spice to have any significant benefit. 

What are the benefits of curcumin?

Clinical trials have shown that curcumin could be useful in treating inflammatory conditions and in sports recovery. 

Antioxidant properties

The phytonutrients found in turmeric are known to reduce the effects of free radicals and therefore protect the body from pollutants and damage, and they can reduce the markers of oxidative stress. 

Anti-inflammatory properties

The effects of curcumin on chronic conditions that have symptoms of inflammation of joints, muscles and systemic inflammation have been studied. Results of the research show a reduction in pain and an improvement in physical functioning for the patients. 

Reducing metabolic syndrome symptoms

Using curcumin can help reduce some of the symptoms, including inflammation, of metabolic syndrome according to a systematic review published in Frontiers in Endocrinology. 

Blood sugar management

Curcumin supplements were also found to reduce fasting blood glucose and have an effect on insulin resistance, making it useful for blood sugar management for pre-diabetic patients as part of a diabetes prevention programme. 

Anxiety and mood disorders

Research into the efficacy of curcumin treatments for mental health has been limited and further clinical research is needed to provide substantial evidence of benefits. 

Pain relief

Curcumin can be used to manage muscle soreness, swelling and inflammation in athletes. It can aid with recovery from activity and improve performance. It has also been trialled with osteoarthritis patients. 

These are only a few of the benefits shown in clinical trials; however, there are many applications for curcumin for chronic and acute conditions that have yet to be explored fully.  

Why is it delivered in an IV treatment?

Although the health benefits of curcumin have been well documented, one of the issues with treatment is bioavailability. 

Bioavailability is the rate and percentage amount of the substance that ends up in your bloodstream and has an effect. It is the level of absorption in the body and how much is used. 

Curcumin has a low bioavailability when ingested in food and through oral supplements. However, to increase the effectiveness of the nutrient, it can be administered through an intravenous (IV) drip. 

IV treatment has been shown to achieve complete bioavailability for drugs and nutrients administered. That means 100 per cent of the substance enters the bloodstream and increases its effectiveness for treatments.

Some of our bespoke IV treatments can provide a detoxification effect, with targeted therapies designed to address the root causes of conditions that can be burdensome or bothersome.

There are a lot of detox regimens out there, which range from the simple and progressively effective (such as minimising processed foods) to the outright ridiculous.

One problem that we have seen is that detoxing as a concept is frequently misunderstood, often because of information that has no scientific backing.

Because of this, what detoxing actually is and what it can do for you is not always clear in the minds of some who want it.

With that in mind, here are some of the most common myths about detoxing and the truth behind them.

Does The Body Naturally Detox Itself?

There is an assumption that detoxing is something that is necessary because the body is incapable of purging toxins and harmful materials itself.

This is far from the case, as entire organs such as the liver and kidneys are designed to filter out harmful materials from your blood and ensure that your body works effectively.

What detoxing actually does instead is ensure that these natural processes are working effectively, examine ways in which your body might be struggling or missing vital nutrients to process and ensure you receive them in as efficient a manner as possible.

Should Everyone Detox In The Same Way?

The short answer to this is “absolutely not”. Because detoxing is actually about helping your body’s natural processes work to flush out toxic and harmful materials, what you should do to take care of yourself can often be radically different to someone else.

This is why we take a bespoke approach to our treatment plans, exploring underlying conditions, nutrient imbalances, lifestyle factors and your overall health in order to choose the right detox therapies that will help your specific needs.

Is Detoxing A Short-Term Fix?

Unfortunately, you cannot use detoxing as a crutch to work around poor lifestyle habits, although they can sometimes help to make the move towards more permanent changes easier or work more quickly.

The issues that detoxing often aims to fix are typically slowly accumulating, caused by polluted atmospheres, overly processed food and the excessive use of alcohol, tobacco or drugs.

The inherent adaptability of the human body is a blessing and a curse in this regard; whilst it takes a lot of bad habits to irrevocably damage the body beyond its ability to repair itself, the more your body has to filter out harmful toxins, the longer it will take to be the best version of yourself.

This is why our detox therapies are typically combined with other beneficial therapies in order to help give you the best possible results.

Should You Feel Bad During A Detox?

We have a natural assumption that pain or discomfort is a sign of something working, but whilst that can sometimes be the case, it can also mean your system is not responding to the particular target therapy and that it may need alterations to effectively suit you.

One option to improve your skin is exosome therapy, which has shown promise in not only skin regeneration, but also wound healing and the treatment of a range of skin disorders.

It’s important to note there are two ways to use exosomes on your skin – topically, such as in skincare products, and transdermally. For the purposes of this article, we’re going to talk about transdermal exosome therapy, through procedures like microneedling with exosomes in London.

What are exosomes?

Let’s start with the basics. Exosomes are extracellular vesicles, which are a type of membrane-bound particle naturally released by cells in the body.

The reason exosomes in particular are interesting for skin regeneration is that they contain proteins, lipids and nucleic acids. These are considered to be bioactive ingredients.

But what is especially important to understand is that exosomes can help to influence the behaviour of the cells to which they are introduced.

How do exosomes benefit your skin?

In practice this means they can help boost collagen and elastin production – both of which are important for the rejuvenation of your skin and giving you a more youthful appearance.

Increased collagen and elastin in your skin also makes your skin more firm, which can be beneficial for wound healing, as well as tightening your skin more generally.

However, this is not where the benefits of exosomes end. This kind of therapy can also help reduce the appearance of dark spots and melasma, as well as reducing redness and inflammation. This latter benefit makes exosome therapy a good choice for treating rosacea.

Exosome therapy can also strengthen and repair your skin barrier, which means it is also an effective option if you are looking for a treatment for eczema.

What happens during an exosome therapy session?

Our professionals use microneedling to deliver the exosome therapy directly to your skin. We carry out the microneedling in conjunction with using the TargetCool device.

This provides a range of complementary benefits to the exosome therapy itself, by reducing the inflammation in the skin following microneedling by using precise cooling. This process also enhances the absorption of the exosomes and promotes deeper penetration into your skin.

As a result, exosome therapy combined with TargetCool not only boosts the regenerative effects of the exosomes, but also makes the therapy more efficient.

In many cases, patients can see significant improvement in their skin after just one session when exosome therapy is combined with TargetCool.

Can exosome therapy help with any other conditions?

Yes, exosome therapy can also be used to support hair growth by both activating dormant hair follicles and by boosting cellular activity in the scalp to maintain hair density.

At our clinic, we see the best results when exosome therapy is combined with TargetCool to help the exosomes penetrate more deeply into the scalp and reduce inflammation.

Many treatments for infertility focus on either medications to increase hormones connected to both male and female reproductive symptoms, surgery to fix underlying medical conditions that can lead to infertility, or artificial insemination and in vitro fertilisation.

These treatments, whilst life-changing for many couples wanting to start a family, are not available if there is no clear underlying cause. This is where our holistic approach to health, formed through 20 years of experience helping couples, guides our infertility treatments.

We take a tailored, broad approach to helping with infertility, with interventions that range from lifestyle advice to reduce underlying factors and identify steps to boost fertility to state-of-the-art medical treatments. 

The bioresonance and oligoscans can be invaluable in detecting underlying issues affecting infertility, showing previous undetected endocrine disruptions (as it looks at hypothalamus and pituitary, as well as thyroid, adrenals and ovaries in ways that conventional medicine does not).

It also checks the autonomic nervous system/vagus nerve for imbalances, looking at tissue toxin and vitamin/mineral levels, as well as systemic inflammation and immune system imbalance/auto-immunity which can all cause or contribute to difficulty to conceive.

This is a much more thorough and different approach to standard care facilities and even most alternative medicine settings.

Where does IV therapy fit into this? Our specialist formulations, designed specifically to help particular issues with fertility, help to improve your overall reproductive health in a few critical ways. 

It may also be necessary to combine those with other therapies like ozone and peptides for a holistic approach, addressing all issues in an optimal way.

What Is IV Therapy?

IV therapy is not one single treatment but a collection of tailored solutions administered intravenously to help battle the underlying causes of infertility and give you the best possible chances to conceive.

These nutrient solutions are administered intravenously using an IV drip, bypassing the digestive system and entering the bloodstream directly.

There are various types of IV therapy, which can help in various ways:

• Combat dehydration and boost hydration, which improves the functioning of the body and the transportation of other nutrients.
• Deliver minerals and vitamins directly into the bloodstream.
• Targeting various organs and tissues to support their function and facilitate healing and repair
• Balancing the entire nervous system, while reducing stress, easing insomnia and harmonising the endocrine system
• Addressing autoimmunity and balance, improving immune health
• Removing toxic metals from the bloodstream.
• Vsels therapy, which we offer, is a form of autologous stem cell therapy directly targeting and improving ovarian reserve and egg health, as the true pluripotent stem cells can greatly enhance fertility in males and females

Why Is IV Therapy Sometimes Necessary?

A lot of couples trying to conceive that end up speaking to us have tried everything else, including nutritional supplements. 

Whilst useful, supplements and improved diets have to go through a lengthy digestive process in order to be absorbed. 

Most people’s digestive system is compromised, which makes adequate assimilation of required nutrients from an even healthy diet challenging, especially if there are increased demands.

If you need a precise level of nutrition based on your health needs and fertility requirements, oral supplements are not quite accurate enough nor quick enough.

How Does IV Therapy Help With Infertility?

IV therapy is used for a wide range of treatments, but here are the five main targets when using it as part of a tailored infertility treatment course:

• Boosts Sperm And Egg Quality – If there are problems with either sperm or eggs, it can not only cause problems conceiving but can also be connected to other health issues and make other interventions more difficult. Nutritional therapy helps by boosting vitamins and minerals.
• Balances Hormones – An imbalance of hormones is natural, as they will fluctuate from day to day and throughout a menstrual cycle. Using targeted nutrients can help regulate this process and increase your chances.
• Balances Immune System Health For Implantation – A key point where reproductive health matters most is implantation, when sperm meets egg, and the embryo sticks to the uterus. A healthy environment matters, and your nutritional health can affect this.
• Fixes Deficiencies In Nutrients – Many people have a nutrient deficiency, either caused by an underlying condition, lifestyle factors or diet. IV therapy can help redress the balance.
• Boosts Energy And Overall Wellness – Ultimately, planned conception and navigating infertility treatments can be physically and mentally taxing, but nutritional IV therapies can replenish energy supplies, lower fatigue and boost your mood.  

But what exactly is artesunate, how can it help your body and why is it important for all of us to explore ways to reduce inflammation in our bodies?

Let’s start with the basics by exploring where artesunate comes from.

What is artesunate?

Artesunate is derived from the plant sweet wormwood. It has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for centuries and research in the 1970s identified the plant’s active ingredient – artemisinin – as a treatment for malaria.

However, artesunate has long been associated with its properties that provide support to the immune system and improve overall wellness. It is also known for helping to reduce inflammation within the body, which is one of the reasons for its rising popularity.

Why is reducing inflammation important for longevity?

It’s important to distinguish between acute inflammation and chronic inflammation when we’re talking about inflammation in the context of longevity. Acute inflammation is part of the body’s natural healing response.

This is the kind of inflammation you experience when you sprain an ankle, for instance. Provided the underlying injury or condition is treated appropriately, the inflammation will reduce and eventually disappear.

However, chronic inflammation develops within our bodies and generally causes us harm rather than bringing any healing benefits. Chronic inflammation is associated with a number of serious health conditions.

In addition, chronic inflammation in the body can be triggered by stress, excess weight or a range of autoimmune conditions.

Research also indicates that chronic inflammation contributes to aging, which means reducing inflammation in your body has the potential to offer significant longevity benefits.

What happens during an artesunate IV treatment?

Before you have any IV treatment in London, you will undergo a full-body scan to assess your personal health and wellness. This provides our experienced clinicians with a clear picture of your physical health, which enables them to tailor your treatments.

If we believe artesunate IV therapy would be beneficial for you, we will arrange for you to visit our clinic where a member of our professional team will administer the treatment via an intravenous (IV) drip.

IV therapy is particularly beneficial in many cases because it bypasses the digestive system. This means all the essential nutrients from an IV infusion are absorbed straight into your body. By contrast, if you take oral supplements, for instance, the absorption rate is unlikely to be as effective.

During your session, you will be made comfortable in our serene clinic. The whole experience is designed to be relaxing and to enhance your wellbeing, so that you can get the most out of your time at our clinic.

A member of our professional team will talk you through the process as they insert the IV and explain how it can add value to your holistic health and wellbeing routine. This therapy can safely be included as part of a long-term approach to improving your longevity.

One of the best examples of how IV treatments can make even the most everyday wellness routine more effective is perhaps vitamin C therapy.

One of the most common vitamins and minerals in the world, vitamin C is a fundamental part of keeping our bodies healthy, helps us heal from wounds, protects our cells and helps to keep our bones strong and healthy.

Most people will intake a small but significant amount of vitamin C every day, given that scurvy is the consequence of not doing so, but how does vitamin C change its properties in high doses? What can you get from high-dose vitamin C treatment? And why is an intravenous injection so important for this?

What Is High-Dose Vitamin C Treatment?

High-dose vitamin C treatment involves the use of an IV to provide doses of vitamin C at levels significantly higher than the 40mg per day recommended by the NHS, which is typically taken in by people through diet, or the 90mg recommended by the United States.

As a powerful antioxidant, vitamin C is a vital defence for fighting free radicals, helping produce neurotransmitters, keeping our bones, teeth and cartilage strong and boosting the production of collagen.

Collagen is a vital protein that gives skin a healthy, youthful plumpness, but it also keeps joints limber, maintains blood vessels and keeps tendons and ligaments healthy.

Why Do You Need Intravenous Vitamin C Treatment?

Unlike nearly any other mammal, human beings do not produce vitamin C, but we also need considerable amounts of it to keep our bodies from falling apart.

This is usually provided from eating foods containing high amounts of vitamin C, such as fruits and vegetables, but it can also be provided through supplemental means. Doctors will occasionally recommend or even outright prescribe vitamin C tablets to patients suffering from a range of issues.

However, there is a problem with both of these methods, as the digestive system struggles to absorb considerable amounts of vitamin C.

If you take over 2000mg using supplements or an unhealthy quantity of grapes, it can lead to stomach upsets, nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea as the body tries to expel excess levels of vitamin C that it cannot handle.

An IV drip is an ideal alternative, as whilst there is an issue with absorbing vitamin C by mouth, an intravenous drip allows it to enter the bloodstream directly, which can help to give you a boost to your day.

This is particularly important during cold winter days, when cold and flu viruses are far more prevalent and spread through a rise in social activities over the festive season.

What Are The Benefits Of High Doses Of Vitamin C?

• Reduces inflammation and boosts the immune system.
• Boosts energy levels.
• Stimulates the production of collagen.
• Boosts tissue production and healing.
• Encourages and boosts white blood cell phagocytosis.

One of the best ways to boost your health and feel energetic is with an alkaline IV drip, which rebalances the pH levels in the body when it becomes too acidic.

To find out what alkaline IV therapy involves and what the benefits are, read on.

What is Alkaline IV therapy?

The body needs to maintain a pH of 7.4, but if it becomes too acidic, this can cause lots of health issues. Therefore, it is important to restore the natural pH balance by neutralising the acids in the body.

Alkaline IV therapy is an intravenous treatment of concentrated sodium bicarbonate. This infusion delivers alkaline minerals, such as calcium, magnesium and potassium, into the body.

It goes straight into the bloodstream to ensure it works quickly and effectively by bypassing the digestive system, so that minerals do not become purged by the body and can be absorbed more efficiently. This is the reason why it is a more effective means of boosting alkaline levels than through eating an alkaline-rich diet or taking supplements.

What are the health complications of low alkaline levels?

A drop in alkaline in the body is known as metabolic acidosis. This can affect anyone, but most typically occurs in people with kidney disease or kidney failure, as it means the kidneys are not flushing out enough acid in the urine. Therefore, the blood becomes too acidic.

It can also be caused by a build-up of ketones in the body, such as from untreated diabetes; or by taking too many laxatives or having severe diarrhoea, as this means the body is losing too much sodium bicarbonate.

Some people also have too much lactic acid in their body through intense exercise, alcohol use, low blood sugar or liver failure. Those who are obese or have epilepsy are also at a higher risk of a pH imbalance.

The most common symptoms of metabolic acidosis are fatigue, nausea, vomiting, confusion, dizziness, headaches, rapid breathing, weakness, and an accelerated heartbeat. Some people also experience a sweet-smelling breath.

Sufferers might also experience confusion, heart palpitations and a loss of appetite.

These difficulties are not only uncomfortable and unpleasant, but in extreme cases, metabolic acidosis can cause organ failure and can even be fatal.

While acidosis can be severe, it is treatable through alkaline IV drips, alongside eating more alkaline-rich foods. 

Anyone who has experienced some of these symptoms that cannot be explained by other conditions can be diagnosed with blood or urine tests, which look at the body’s pH level.

How can Alkaline IV therapy improve health outcomes?

Depending on the severity of the imbalance and the reason behind it, alkaline IV therapy can be very effective and can completely improve the quality of life for those who suffer badly with the symptoms of acidosis.

– Reduce inflammation

A 2024 study, which was published in the journal Medicine, revealed a connection between alkaline therapy and a reduction in inflammation.

It reduced joint pain and swelling in those suffering from gout, which is a form of arthritis that typically affects the legs, feet and, in particular, the big toe. It is caused by too much uric acid in the body, which results in a build-up of crystals in the joints.

As alkaline therapy rebalances the pH levels in the body, this means there is less concentration of uric acid, and the body will not produce as many painful crystals.

– Eases chronic conditions

Though alkaline therapy does not provide a cure for chronic illnesses, such as kidney disease, it can certainly be an effective treatment of uncomfortable symptoms.

For instance, findings published in the National Library of Medicine revealed it can improve kidney function for those with chronic kidney disease. Therefore, it can slow down the progression of the illness and make sufferers feel more comfortable.

In addition to relieving symptoms of kidney disease, it could lower the risk of kidney stones, which can be very painful.

It could also help those with diabetes by lowering blood sugar levels, improving insulin sensitivity, and decreasing lipid levels.

A study was conducted on both diabetic and non-diabetic rats that concluded alkaline supplementation “holds significant promise for positively impacting these metabolic processes and enhancing antioxidant defenses”.

This suggests it could be used as a tool to manage metabolic disorders like diabetes. It could also reduce the risk of developing type 2 diabetes.

– Improved skin, hair and bone health

As alkaline has antioxidant properties, this helps to neutralise free radicals that cause damage to cells. As a result, it boosts bone health, and improves the appearance of skin and hair.

There have also been reports that it can reduce the occurrence of bone resorption, which is when minerals are lost from bones.

If the body has too much acid, this can increase the breaking down of bones, so rebalancing pH levels leads to stronger bone density and a reduction in fracture risks.

Research into the bone density of postmenopausal women with osteoporosis showed alkaline water can improve their condition. The mean T-scores of the femur and spine bones increased significantly in the group given alkaline water.

Therefore, alkaline therapy could be an effective treatment for postmenopausal women who want to increase their bone density and either prevent osteoporosis or improve their symptoms, which includes back pain, stooped shoulders, brittle nails, loose teeth, and frequent fractures.

– Improved circulation

There is some evidence alkaline therapy can also help with heart function, as it reduces blood viscosity. Those who have higher blood viscosity, or thicker blood, are at greater risk of cardiovascular problems, including heart attacks, strokes and heart disease.

By thinning the blood, this makes the flow more efficient, and helps the heart work more effectively. It can also reduce blood pressure, thanks to increasing potassium levels in the body, which helps blood travel better through veins and arteries.

In addition to these chronic illnesses, having a weekly infusion of alkaline therapy, as well as eating an alkaline-rich diet, can help with acid reflux and heartburn, improve hydration after exercise, boost athletic performance, and increase energy levels.

One huge example of this is curcumin, which is one of the most potent systemic anti-inflammatory compounds out there, as well as being a very effective antioxidant.

What makes curcumin so effective and interesting is that many people have some experience with it, even if they might not realise it.

What Is Curcumin?

Curcumin is a polyphenol compound that is commonly found in turmeric, the bright yellow spice that gives curry its characteristic look.

Turmeric has been used for centuries in various natural medicine traditions alongside its use as a dye and food colouring, and curcumin is the main compound that provides that characteristic yellow hue.

It first originated in Asia and has been used in India, China and Southeast Asia for hundreds, if not thousands of years, before it started to be imported into Europe, where it was often known as “Indian saffron” due to its colour.

It is part of the ginger family, and because of this, it has been linked to various potential medical benefits both in traditional medicine and in various health studies. This is also the reason for its slightly bitter, earthy and mustard-like flavour tones when eaten as part of food.

What Are The Benefits Of Curcumin?

A lot of people are aware that turmeric has anti-inflammatory properties, but few realise just how powerful these benefits are, and how it can potentially help with several inflammatory conditions, both acute and chronic in nature.

A study exploring its effects on ulcerative colitis found that whilst it was not necessarily a treatment that would stop an active inflammation flare-up, it could help to prolong remission and reduce the severity of pain associated with inflammatory conditions such as osteoarthritis. 

In particular, curcumin can help to reduce the inflammation that is linked to autoimmune conditions and injuries that cause swelling, lessening the effects and lengthening the time spent avoiding pain.

It helps to battle free radicals not only due to its own well-known antioxidant properties but also by stimulating the effects of other antioxidants and using that combined force to reduce the effects of oxidative stress.

As well as this, it can induce detox pathways, which can help improve gut and particularly liver health by improving the processing of toxins and reducing the chronic effects that they can have on the body.

It has also been linked to improved cardiovascular and pancreatic function, although the extent to which it can promote improved heart health is an active focus of medical research.

Finally, turmeric and curcumin both have antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral and general antimicrobial properties.

Why Use IV Therapy?

Many people eat curcumin through its use as a spice, a food colouring or as a dietary supplement, but the issue with this is that eating turmeric is not the best way to enjoy its health benefits.

Some people have tried mixing it with black pepper to improve its bioavailability, but a targeted IV therapy helps to enhance its effects by skipping the stomach and digestive system.

Let’s start by explaining nootropics in more detail though. Nootropics describes supplements and compounds that are designed to improve our cognitive function. Some nootropics occur naturally – like caffeine and ginseng – while others are synthetic. Piracetam falls into the synthetic category.

It is one of the best-known nootropics and has long been used to control epilepsy and as a treatment for vertigo. But it has many other benefits, as we’ll explore.

How can a piracetam IV be used?

Piracetam is a cognitive enhancer that has been shown to improve memory and brain function. This means it can enhance learning and understanding in a range of settings. It has been found to have benefits for those with dyslexia in particular.

In fact, one study found that dyslexic children who received piracetam demonstrated “significant improvements” in their reading ability compared to the dyslexic children in the placebo group. It is also used to support those with ADHD/ADD and depression.

Piracetam has also been found to improve your ability to recall information, making you sharper and giving you an edge in situations such as exams.

Having a piracetam IV is therefore a popular choice among students or others who are sitting exams and want to boost their performance using a substance that works with their brain and body. Taking piracetam via an IV ensures that the nootropic works quickly.

The alternative is to take piracetam in an oral supplement, but this takes longer to work and can often be less effective as oral supplements need to pass through the digestive system. By contrast, a piracetam IV goes straight into your blood stream, allowing it to get to work more quickly.

Because of its ability to improve memory and learning, piracetam is also highly effective for recovery following a stroke because it encourages neuron regeneration in the brain. Researchers have found that piracetam is particularly effective in treating aphasia – a language disorder that can occur following a stroke.

How does piracetam work?

Piracetam mimics the body’s GABA neurotransmitter – it is essentially a synthetic version of this neurotransmitter. This means it improves blood flow to the brain and increases the amount of oxygen in the blood flowing to the brain. All of which helps to improve your cognitive function.

It also has neuroprotective and anticonvulsant properties, hence its use in the management of epilepsy. It also improves the brain’s neuroplasticity, which is its ability to create new neural connections as well as to strengthen existing ones.

Creating new neural connections is often known as “rewiring” because it speaks to the brain’s ability to make adaptive and structural changes to itself. This also explains why a piracetam IV is so useful ahead of exams, because it strengthens neural connections and helps you forge new pathways in the brain as you learn new skills or information.

Research has also found that piracetam is generally well-tolerated, which means it can be used by many people safely.
