A Clinically-Focused, Oral Alternative to IV Therapy


Thiamine (B1) 8,333% DV; Riboflavin (B2) 769% DV; Niacinamide (B3) 250% DV; METHYLcobalamin (B12) 10,417% DV; L-METHYLfolate (B9) 333% DV; Pyridoxine (B6) 882% DV; D-Biotin (B7) 1000% DV; Pantothenate (B5) 300% DV; Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin-C) 833% DV

High-dose B-vitamins dissolved in a watery electrolyte solution ensures a therapeutic amount is absorbed into the bloodstream.

Sodium Chloride (and a little potassium)

When the body is clinically dehydrated, absorption of water through the gut is increased significantly with a delicately balanced formula of electrolytes. Sodium being the most important here, and dependent on glucose (from dextrose) for entry into the bloodstream via the Na+/glucose cotransport system. Along with sodium, goes water. The sodium:dextrose ratio used in BBOS is this same proven formula that treats dehydration by mouth and decreases the need for IV therapy.

Organic Dextrose Monohydrate

Sugar! Yes, sugar in the form of dextrose (100% metabolized to glucose) works with sodium to activate the Na+/glucose cotransporter system. When properly exposed to a precise ratio of sodium & glucose, this transport system can significantly decrease the need for IV treatment of dehydration by allowing rapid absorption of sodium and water through the GI tract and into the bloodstream.


One packet reconstituted in 250 - 500 mL of water yields 17.8 mEq of sodium and only 18 mMol of dextrose (410 mg sodium / 3.7 grams dextrose).



By having a 1:1 mMol ratio of sodium to glucose, we now have an osmolarity range in the gut of 120 to 240 mOsm/L. This formula significantly reduces the need for IV dehydration treatment.



What does all this mean? A clinically-focused oral re-hydration solution can allow the body to absorb water very efficiently through the GI system and into the bloodstream. Thus providing the following benefits without the need for intravenous access:

Combining very high-dose daily values of water soluble B-Vitamins with Vitamin C... the Banana Bag Oral Solution can also help replenish vital nutrients lost to chronic illnesses, impaired B12 and folic acid metabolism, alcohol consumption, and general dietary deficiencies. A benefit not found in typical pediatric and other common electrolyte solutions.
