Membership is the most effective way to stay consistent with your wellness routine while receiving the best possible value for holistic health services in Fort Worth, Texas. Below is a closer look at the benefits by membership level.

Benefits of the Revive Membership

Here’s why we recommend becoming a Revive member:

• IV Therapy. Deliver customized vitamin, mineral, antioxidant, and amino acid fusions intravenously for maximum bioavailability and absorption that lasts up to two weeks. Plus, you can customize your infusion to support your needs! Our IVs are administered by registered nurses and take 20 to 45 minutes.

In addition to the benefits of IV therapy and vitamin shots (see above), here’s why you should consider becoming a Balance Member: 

• IV Ozone. Administer ozone gas into the bloodstream intravenously to decrease inflammation and toxicity and cleanse your body.

• Dermashape. This device uses heat and vacuum suction massage to improve skin appearance, boost the lymphatic system, break down fat, improve immune function, reduce water retention, and alleviate muscle pain.

• Ozone Insufflation. Ozone is placed into the nose or ears through a needle-less syringe to help with ear and sinus infections, brain fog, vertigo, allergies + more.

• Breathing Ozonated Oil. Breathe ozonated extra virgin olive oil into the lungs via nasal cannula. This modality humidifies ozone gas so it can be gently inhaled over a 20 to 30-minute period to decrease inflammation in the lungs while combating allergies, congestion, and airway irritation.

Thermography is a painless and safe thermal imaging tool that detects various health conditions while monitoring disease progression, and inflammation. The Interpretation Consult will discuss scan interpretation, lifestyle, nutrition, and personalized functional medicine recommendations.

Membership Best Practices

To get the most from your Restore + Revive membership:

• Arrive Fully Hydrated to IV Appointments - This will maximize your body’s ability to detox and/or to receive and metabolize vitamins and minerals. Aim for half your body weight in ounces of filtered water daily to maximize IV therapy benefits.

• Supplement with Shots - Every R+R member gets two FREE vitamin shots per month. These are a great option when you’re on the run and a fantastic supplementary boost to your vitamin IV drips. 

• Target Your Treatments - Choose services and IVs that align with your current health goals, whether that is immunity, energy, detox, performance, or hormone balance. Regarding IV therapy specifically, you can select an IV specifically created for immunity, hangovers, weight management, detoxing, energy, athletic performance, happy hormones, or a healthy liver. Or, you can opt for an IV that supports general wellness including our Myers Drip Plus, Vitamin C, Glutathione, and more. These drips all have immune-boosting, detoxifying, and energizing properties. 

• Stay Consistent - To get the most out of your membership, consistency is key. Services don’t roll over, so try to utilize all aspects of your membership each month. We also recommend scheduling all of your membership services at the beginning of your membership cycle to help keep you on track and organized. On average, we recommend vitamin IVs every two to four weeks, but it depends upon your unique make-up whether more or less frequent is ideal for you. 

• Habit Stack When You Can - Doing multiple services at once (or on the same day) can save time and convenience. For example, you can ask the nurse to administer Ozone while receiving your IV or you can use the infrared sauna and cold plunge for contrast therapy.

• Focus on How You Feel - Results are best measured by how your body responds, not appearances. For example, when receiving a detox foot soak, try not to focus on how the water looks, but on how you feel after the treatment.

• Don’t Hesitate to Ask For Help - Our Registered Nurses and staff can help you decide which Vitamin IVs or services are best for you based on your needs. You can also customize services to suit your needs – just ask! Our Membership Liaison is here for any and all questions, needs, or concerns.

• Take Advantage of the All-Member Perks- Don’t forget to take advantage of 20% select R+R services including vitamin IVs, vitamin shots, detox foot soaks, infrared sauna, cold plunge, ozone, revive room with red light therapy, nutrition consults, pelvic floor physical therapy, dermashape, massage therapy, Neubie, In-body and thermography.

Refrigerated vs. Shelf-Stable Probiotics: What’s the Difference?

At Restore + Revive in Fort Worth, we often get questions about whether refrigerated probiotics are superior to shelf-stable (freeze-dried) options. The truth is, it’s less about where they’re stored and more about how they’re made.

Let’s break down what really matters.

The Basics: What Are Probiotics?

Probiotics are live microorganisms that support gut, immune, and overall health. They work by balancing the bacteria in your digestive system, strengthening your intestinal barrier, and even influencing mood and inflammation.

But because they’re living organisms, stability matters, and that’s where the difference between refrigerated and shelf-stable forms comes in.

Refrigerated Probiotics

Refrigerated probiotics contain live bacterial strains that require constant cold temperatures to remain viable. They’re often heat-sensitive and can degrade quickly if exposed to warm environments for an extended period of time.

Refrigeration can help maintain potency for these strains, but it also means:

• The “cold chain” must be maintained during shipping and storage.

• Travel or convenience may be limited. If you are somebody who is always on the go and brings your supplements with you, this is something to be cognizant of.

• If the product has been exposed to heat, some bacterial strains may be impacted.

So while refrigeration can be beneficial for certain delicate strains, it is important to be aware of the requirements to properly store and maintain the product.

Freeze-Dried (Shelf-Stable) Probiotics

High-quality shelf-stable probiotics are often freeze-dried, a process called lyophilization. This removes moisture under cold, vacuum-sealed conditions, essentially putting the bacteria into a dormant (but alive) state.

Because they’re protected from heat and moisture, these probiotics can remain stable at room temperature until they’re ingested. Once they reach your gut, the bacteria essentially “wake up” and become active in the gut.

Freeze-dried probiotics are:

• Stable at room temperature, no refrigeration needed

• Oftentimes maintain potency longer, even during shipping and travel

• Easier for consistent daily use and/or frequent travel

• Just as effective as refrigerated options when made and stored properly

The key is quality. A well-formulated, freeze-dried probiotic designed for shelf stability can be just as potent than one that requires refrigeration.

What Really Determines Probiotic Quality

Whether refrigerated or shelf-stable, the following factors matter far more than temperature:

• Strain specificity: Certain strains are better studied and more effective for specific health goals (e.g., gut repair, immune support, women’s health).

• Colony-forming units (CFUs): A higher number isn’t always better, what matters is the strain’s survivability through your digestive tract.

• Encapsulation technology: Quality brands use protective coatings that help probiotics survive stomach acid and reach your intestines intact.

• Manufacturing integrity: Trusted brands rigorously test for viability, purity, and potency throughout the product’s shelf life.

Probiotic Usage Tips

If you’re considering taking a probiotic, here are some high-level guidelines from our functional medicine providers at Restore + Revive recommend:

1. Look for resilient strains
We often recommend probiotics that include Saccharomyces boulardii, a beneficial probiotic yeast that can’t easily be killed by antibiotics. This makes it ideal for supporting gut health during or after antibiotic use.

2. Timing matters

• During antibiotics: Take your probiotic 4 hours apart from your antibiotic dose to maximize effectiveness.

• After antibiotics: We recommend continuing a probiotic for about 2 months post-antibiotic to help restore your gut microbiome.

3. Rotate if used long-term
If you plan to take probiotics routinely, rotating different strains can help maintain microbial diversity and prevent your body from adapting to a single formula.

4. When to prioritize usage
While not everyone needs a daily probiotic indefinitely, they can be especially helpful:

• Post-illness (especially GI or stomach-bug related illnesses) or post-antibiotic treatment

• During times of digestive stress

• When needing additional support to immune health or gut balance

5. Brands matter

The effectiveness of probiotics depends on the specific strains, the quality of the formulation, and whether the bacteria can survive the journey through the GI tract.

Choosing the Right Probiotic for You

At Restore + Revive, we don’t put just any product on our shelves (or in our fridge). Our providers and staff are dedicated to finding the very best supplements for our clients. We meet with brand representatives, review research and ingredients, compare formulations, and evaluate pricing, all before a product ever makes it to our wellness shop.

That’s why you’ll find both shelf-stable and refrigerated probiotics available here, because we’ve vetted and approved products from each category that meet our high standards for purity, potency, and effectiveness.

Creatine 101: What It Is, What It Does, and How It Benefits Both Muscles and Mind

When you hear “creatine,” you might think of bodybuilders or elite athletes. But this naturally occurring compound is about far more than building muscle, it has also shown it can support brain function, blood sugar regulation, and healthy aging. Despite common misconceptions, creatine is not a steroid, doesn’t damage kidneys, and doesn’t cause fat gain. In fact, decades of research support its safety and effectiveness for a wide range of people, including women and older adults looking to maintain strength, cognition, and metabolic health.

What Is Creatine?

Creatine is a naturally occurring compound your body produces from amino acids. Our bodies naturally make creatine from amino acids. We get about 1–2 grams per day from foods such as meat and fish. Muscle tissue typically stores 60%–80% of its creatine at baseline, and supplementation can raise these stores by 20–40% (UCLA Health).

Higher creatine stores support short-burst energy for high-intensity movement, such as lifting, sprinting, or other resistance-based exercises. It may also aid in recovery between bouts of activity, helping your muscles replenish energy more efficiently. Essentially, creatine functions like an energy reserve for your muscles, and it’s not just for athletes. By boosting creatine levels, you can enhance physical performance, support strength, and maintain muscle mass as you age, all of which can play a vital role in blood sugar regulation, bone health, and overall wellness.

Safety Note: Creatine is generally considered safe for most healthy adults. However, if your kidneys do not filter waste efficiently or you have a history of kidney problems caution is warranted. Always talk with your healthcare provider before taking creatine or any supplement. 

Creatine and Cognitive Health Benefits

One of the latest areas of research around creatine is surrounding the benefits of cognitive function. Creatine has been shown to play a role in neurogenesis, the formation of new neurons in the brain (QBI). By supporting energy production in brain cells, creatine may help improve memory, focus, and mental stamina.

A 2024 study tested the effects of a single dose of creatine on cognitive performance after one night of sleep deprivation. Fifteen participants were given either creatine or a placebo at 6pm, and their cognitive performance, including reaction times and short-term memory, was tested every 2.5 hours until 9am. The results showed that processing speed was significantly faster in the creatine group. Researchers speculate that when brain cells are under stress, such as during sleep deprivation, they rely on phosphocreatine as an energy reserve, and dietary creatine helps replenish this reserve. While this study was small and the effects are likely short-term, it highlights creatine’s potential to support cognitive function, particularly in situations of high energy demand (Nature).

Muscle, Blood Sugar, and Aging Benefits

Maintaining muscle mass is essential for overall health, particularly in regulating blood sugar levels. Muscle tissue plays a significant role in glucose metabolism, and having more muscle mass can enhance insulin sensitivity. Think of your muscles like a sponge for sugar, they help absorb glucose from the bloodstream and keep blood sugar levels balanced. Without enough muscle, that sponge shrinks, making it harder for the body to properly process sugar. Therefore, maintaining and increasing muscle mass is imperative for metabolic health. Creatine supplementation, especially when combined with resistance training, may help preserve and build muscle mass, thereby supporting better blood sugar control (MDPI Nutrients).

It’s important to note that creatine isn’t just for those looking to get “meaty” and build what some might consider to be excessive amounts of muscle. Specifically, women can see significant benefits in muscle maintenance and bone health when supplementing with creatine. As we age, especially women, there’s a natural decline in muscle mass and bone density, which increases risks of falls, fractures, and metabolic issues. Creatine has been shown to help preserve muscle strength in older adults, potentially reducing the risk of sarcopenia (age-related muscle loss) and supporting overall functional capacity (CU Anschutz).

How and When Should You Take Creatine?

Creatine is most commonly available in powdered or gummy form, and one question we often hear is: “When is the best time to take it?”

According to a 2022 study by internationally renowned sports nutrition experts, timing doesn’t appear to make a significant difference for muscle mass or performance (“Creatine O’Clock: Does Timing of Ingestion Really Influence Muscle Mass and Performance?”).

The key takeaway is consistency over timing. Whether you take it before a workout, after, or on rest days, regular daily supplementation supports muscle energy, strength, and overall health benefits.

Supporting Whole-Body Wellness

Creatine does more than just support muscle growth, it plays a vital role in energy production, cognitive function, and overall vitality. By helping your body regenerate more cellular energy (ATP), creatine supports better workout performance, quicker recovery, and even potentially improved brain function.

At Restore + Revive, we’re intentional about the products we offer. That’s why we carry our favorite, high-quality creatine supplement by Just Ingredients right here in the Wellness Center. Swing by and grab some creatine and other wellness supplements (4927 Byers Ave Fort Worth, Texas 76107)!
