Your Questions About NAD+ IV Therapy: Answered

NAD+ is a bit of a buzzword in today's world. It's commonly thrown around as an anti-aging, energy-boosting treatment. But NAD+ is so much more.


NAD+ is a coenzyme we need to live. And as we age, our NAD+ numbers begin to dwindle. The best way to rejuvenate your supply of NAD+ is through IV Therapy. An NAD+ IV treatment will leave you feeling 20 years younger.

What is NAD+?


NAD stands for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. It is a coenzyme found in all living cells and has even been called an anti-aging molecule because of its many important roles in promoting health and prolonging lifespan. NAD+ is required for your mitochondria to create energy. With no NAD+, your mitochondria would not be able to carry out functions like DNA repair, gene expression and transcription, cell signaling, and energy regulation. NAD+ is naturally produced in your body from multiple dietary sources like tryptophan and forms of vitamin B.


Beyond energy, NAD+ also plays a role in several biological processes, including:

  • Repairing and protecting DNA

  • Gene expression

  • Extracting cellular energy from nutrition

  • Maintaining mitochondrial function

  • Chromosomal integrity preservation

  • Epigenetic and posttranslational modifications

In layman’s terms, we need NAD+ to live. However, as we get older, our bodies generate less and less of the coenzyme. This is one reason why we begin to feel the effects of aging and become more prone to age-related illnesses as the years pass by. Moreover, factors like stress, lack of sleep, poor diet, alcohol consumption, lack of exercise, and drug use can all further deplete your NAD+ levels. Chronic inflammation and oxidative stress can all exacerbate NAD+ depletion.


One of the ways you can supplement NAD+ in your body is through IV therapy. This is a holistic, all-natural way to help your body fight against aging and illness to feel healthier and more youthful. Oral supplements of NAD do exist, but it is difficult for your body to absorb NAD+ this way and thus hard to guarantee results. Currently, IV therapy is the safest and most efficient way of supplementing the coenzyme in your body.


This powerful molecule has a lot of potential for new therapeutic opportunities. NAD+ can be used for general anti-aging purposes and for feeling rejuvenated. But also, studies have shown that it can help battle many aging and chronic conditions in the human body and brain. Some of the benefits of NAD+ include:

  • Slows cognitive decline

  • Promotes healthy brain function

  • Fights chronic fatigue

  • Increases energy

  • Boosts metabolism

  • Regenerates cells

  • Slows aging

  • Reduces internal inflammation

How does NAD+ IV therapy work?


NAD IV therapy might be something of a buzzword in today’s world, but it’s actually been used in medical treatments since the late 1960s. NAD IV therapy delivers a dose of the NAD coenzyme to your blood, where your body can use it best. Without the NAD coenzyme, your body may not have the elements it needs for optimal cell function.


As you get your infusion, NAD molecules bind with proteins in your body to create active enzymes that your body uses to metabolize fuel and revitalize cells. The NAD coenzymes combine with other elements to become niacin vitamin B3, and it’s this vitamin that’s responsible for revitalizing cells from the inside out. NAD therapy supports healing at a cellular level. It has the power to enhance brain function, increase energy, and boost your overall well-being.


What are the benefits of NAD+ IV therapy?


1. Clears brain fog


Brain fog is the term used to describe difficulty in achieving clear, focused thoughts. Maybe you feel like you can’t concentrate on a specific task, or perhaps you’ve noticed your productivity declining at work or school.


NAD IV therapy combats brain fog by saturating the cells in your brain with the nutrients it needs to perform better. NAD boosts cognitive function and clears away that hazy feeling, so you can focus on the task at hand.


2. Helps manage chronic conditions


NAD IV therapy offers a host of benefits for the mind, but it also offers plenty of benefits for the body. The NAD coenzyme plays an essential role in activating antioxidants and reducing inflammation, which both work to reduce pain.


NAD therapy can be a beneficial treatment for people with chronic pain and it can reduce symptoms of diabetes. Because NAD therapy increases serotonin levels, the infusion acts as a mood stabilizer and can be helpful for people suffering from depression.


3. Enhances overall well-being


Because NAD IV therapy revitalizes your body beginning with individual cells, it offers whole-body benefits that almost anyone can enjoy. Increased energy levels are one of the most common reasons people seek out NAD therapy.


Increased energy can lead to increased performance in athletes, and NAD IV therapy also improves your body’s metabolic processes. This can help you reach or maintain a healthy weight, particularly when combined with a healthy diet and exercise.


4. Supports addiction recovery


Addiction to drugs or alcohol changes the way your brain works. These changes in brain chemistry are one of the reasons that up to 60% of people in rehab relapse. Despite your best intentions, suffering from addiction means that resisting cravings can sometimes feel impossible.


NAD IV therapy accelerates healing within your brain, which means that you’re less likely to experience cravings, withdrawal symptoms, and the temptation to use. As part of a comprehensive recovery program, NAD IV therapy could reduce withdrawal and other negative symptoms by up to 70% without the need for narcotic medications.
