When fall rolls into the Upstate, so does cold and flu season. Kids bring germs home from school. Holiday travel packs GSP. Office parties, game days and gatherings fill every weekend.

Here's how to support your immune system this season, including immune IV options at iCRYO Mauldin.

Quick answer: Popular immune support options include an immune IV drip with vitamin C and zinc, a high-dose vitamin C (High-C) IV after G6PD screening, and quick IM vitamin shots. Combine them with sleep, hydration and healthy habits, and talk with your doctor about vaccines.

  • Packed calendars mean more crowds and less sleep
