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.
