Ray J’s mom, Sonja Norwood, found herself in quite a health scare recently, and it’s all thanks to a trendy home IV drip gone wrong. This is one wellness trend that took an unexpected turn, folks.
According to TMZ, Sonja decided to give the popular home IV drip treatment a shot, hoping to reap the benefits of essential vitamins and nutrients delivered straight to her bloodstream. It’s a trend that’s been embraced by celebs far and wide, promising a health boost like no other.
But here’s where things went haywire. Instead of experiencing wellness, Sonja began feeling light-headed and unwell after the IV treatment. Rapid breathing took over, causing serious concern for her family, including her son, Ray J. When things started spiraling, they didn’t hesitate to call for an ambulance.
Thankfully, Sonja got the medical attention she needed and eventually stabilized. The IV therapy she received was a mixture of C and B vitamins, along with calcium and magnesium, designed to give the immune system a much-needed kick. However, as with any treatment, there are potential risks, including infection, rashes, blood clots, and even air embolisms.
It’s a stark reminder that not all health and wellness trends are a one-size-fits-all solution. Even celebs like Kendall Jenner have found themselves in the hospital due to bad reactions to IV vitamin drips. Perhaps, for some, sticking to good old vitamins from a bottle might be the safer choice.
