NAD+
NAD⁺ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) is a coenzyme found in every cell of your body. It plays a critical role in energy production, DNA repair, metabolism, and cellular health. NAD⁺ levels naturally decline with age, stress, illness, poor diet, and environmental exposure — which may contribute to fatigue, brain fog, aging, and chronic disease.
NAD⁺ therapy is designed to restore optimal levels of this essential molecule to enhance energy, support brain function, and promote healthy aging.
How Does NAD⁺ Work?
NAD⁺ functions as a “helper molecule,” enabling vital cellular processes:
✅ Converts food into cellular energy (ATP)
✅ Activates enzymes for DNA repair
✅ Supports mitochondrial function
✅ Helps regulate inflammation and oxidative stress
✅ Boosts neurotransmitters for focus, memory, and mood
Potential Benefits of NAD⁺ Therapy
While individual results vary, many patients report improvements in:
Benefits
⚡ Energy & Fatigue
Increased physical and mental stamina
🧠 Cognition & Focus
Improved memory, clarity, and concentration
😴 Sleep Quality
More restful, restorative sleep
🧬 Anti-Aging
Supports DNA repair and healthy cellular aging
🩺 Chronic Illness Recovery
May aid in metabolic and immune health
💊 Addiction & Detox Support
Used in some programs to reduce cravings and improve recovery outcomes
Who May Benefit from NAD⁺ Therapy?
Individuals experiencing low energy, brain fog, or burnout
People with chronic fatigue, metabolic conditions, or neurodegenerative concerns
Those pursuing anti-aging, longevity, or cellular optimization
Athletes and professionals under high physical or mental stress
Patients undergoing detox or recovery programs
How is NAD⁺ Therapy Administered?
NAD⁺ can be administered in several ways, depending on clinical setting and patient preference:
IV Infusion: Delivered directly into the bloodstream for maximum absorption and immediate effect. Typically takes 1–3 hours.
Intramuscular Injection (IM): Injected into muscle tissue, allowing gradual absorption over time. Convenient and less time-consuming than IV.
Subcutaneous Injection (SQ): Injected just under the skin, offering slow and steady absorption. Often easier to self-administer.
Oral Supplements: Available but with significantly lower bioavailability compared to injections or IV.
Nasal Sprays or Sublinguals: Emerging methods to support brain delivery but less common.
Is NAD⁺ Therapy Safe?
NAD⁺ is a naturally occurring compound in the body, and therapy is generally well tolerated when properly administered.
Possible Side Effects (usually mild or temporary):
Flushing or warmth
Chest tightness (if IV is too fast)
Nausea or lightheadedness
Fatigue or headache during or after infusion
Mild soreness or redness at injection site (IM or SQ)
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How long does an NAD⁺ IV take?
A: Infusions typically take 1–3 hours, depending on the dose and individual tolerance.
Q: How often should I receive NAD⁺?
A: Your provider may recommend weekly or biweekly treatments for several sessions, followed by monthly maintenance.
Q: What about IM or SQ injections?
A: IM and SQ injections provide slower absorption than IV but offer convenient alternatives, often with shorter appointment times or for self-administration at home.
