This includes immune processes that are heightened as a result of a food allergy, or metabolic processes not involving the immune system, such as food intolerances.

Myers’ Multivitamin Injection (Yes, We Do It At Our Clinic!)
Myers’ background
Our Mississauga naturopathic clinic has been safely and effectively administering intravenous multivitamin injections, commonly called Myers’ cocktails, for over 11 years.
