How do Vie Patches work?
The patches have been formulated with essential herbs, vitamins and minerals. Using transdermal technology, the natural ingredients gradually seep into the skin and enter the bloodstream. The goodness contained within them is then effectively distributed throughout the body by your circulatory system. Because this is a gradual process, the patches are generally effective for 24-36 hours.
Do the patches present any health risks?
No. Because they are formulated using only natural ingredients, the patches are safe to use and will not cause any adverse reactions. The Insect Repellant patch, for example, can even be used on children as young as 12 months. As a purely precautionary measure however, we could recommend that pregnant women consult their doctor prior to using any such patches. The high quality transdermal adhesive used in the patches typically has no adverse effect on 99% of users. In the unlikely event of a rash developing however, we would suggest you discontinue use immediately, and seek medical advice should you so desire.
How should they be applied?
The patch should be applied to a clean, dry, hairless area of skin. Under a t-shirt or rolled up shirt sleeve may be the best place, providing a discrete and easily accessible spot upon which to affix the patch, which resembles a small sticking plaster. When you’re done with the patch, just wet it and slowly peel it off. The patch should come off easily, and any residue left behind by the glue will be easily removable with a drop of soap and water.
Wouldn’t it be simpler to just swallow a pill?
Simpler, perhaps. More effective, no. The trouble with oral medication is that it’s extremely hard to regulate the dosage. Depending upon what you’ve eaten prior to ingestion and your metabolic rate, much of the goodness contained within pills can be lost altogether. Some supplements have an absorption rate of less than 1% – hardly the most efficient means of administering medication. Because Vie Patches seep directly into the skin, the bloodstream is able to absorb all of the nutrients, providing a consistent, regulated dose of medication.
How often can the patches be used?
As often as necessary. The Insect Repellant patch, for example, can be replaced every 36 hours with a fresh one to get you through your holiday – however long that may be. We wouldn’t recommend that you apply the No Hangover patch every day however, not because it could be harmful or lose its efficacy, but because consuming an excessive amount of alcohol on a regular basis simply isn’t good for your body. The patch can certainly ease your hangover, but it can’t be expected to permanently safeguard your liver. When replacing a patch with a new one, try and affix it to a fresh area of skin.
Do the patches actually work?
Yes. They certainly do. Of course, you’d probably expect us to say that, but you don’t just have to take our word for it – read the testimonials from some of our many satisfied customers. Or better still, try the patches for yourself and see just how effective they are. Because they are reasonably priced, purchasing the patches doesn’t carry the same weight of responsibility that comes with pondering whether to invest in expensive courses of medication. The No Hangover patch, for example, is priced at less than a packet of teabags. In the morning however, you won’t require a restoring brew to get you out of bed – provided you applied your patch on the way to the pub the night before, that is.
