Energy, Clarity, Vitality

Overview

NAD (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) IV therapy delivers a critical coenzyme directly into the bloodstream to support cellular energy production, cognitive function, and overall wellness. NAD levels naturally decline with age, stress, illness, and certain lifestyle factors, and IV therapy provides rapid restoration for enhanced cellular performance and metabolic support.

Substance: Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD⁺) – a coenzyme found in all living cells

Administration Routes:

Intravenous (IV) Infusion: Slow drip over 1–4 hours
Intramuscular (IM) Injection or Subcutaneous (SC) Injection

How It Works at the Cellular Level

Cellular Energy Production: NAD is essential for mitochondrial function, converting nutrients into ATP, the energy currency of cells.
DNA Repair & Longevity: Supports DNA repair and cellular maintenance by activating sirtuins and PARPs, enzymes tied to cellular repair and lifespan regulation.
Neuroprotection: Enhances neurotransmitter function and brain energy metabolism, targeting serotonin, dopamine, and noradrenaline pathways supporting cognitive clarity and mood balance.
Detoxification & Recovery: Oxidative Stress Reduction: Acts as a cofactor in antioxidant systems, improving metabolic efficiency and supporting liver detox pathways.
Anti-Aging Support: By boosting NAD, cells maintain better energy, repair, and resilience, supporting overall wellness and longevity.

In Everyday Terms

NAD IV therapy helps your cells make energy more efficiently, supporting mental clarity, focus, mood balance, and overall vitality. It's ideal for clients seeking energy restoration, recovery from chronic stress, or support for healthy aging.

Why It's More Effective

Oral NAD supplements are poorly absorbed and cannot achieve the concentrations needed for therapeutic cellular effects. IV administration bypasses the digestive system, delivering NAD directly into the bloodstream for rapid, measurable results.

Indications for Use

Energy & Metabolism: Fatigue, burnout, low energy, mitochondrial dysfunction
Neurological Support: Brain fog, memory issues, focus, cognitive decline
Mood & Mental Health: Adjunctive support for anxiety, depression, PTSD
Detoxification & Recovery: Substance use recovery, withdrawal symptom support
Anti-Aging & Longevity: Cellular repair, DNA integrity, improved resilience
Athletic Performance & Recovery: Muscle recovery, enhanced endurance, decreased oxidative stress

Administration Guidelines

IV Infusion: Typically 250–1000 mg, administered slowly over 1–4 hours. Slower infusion rates improve tolerance.
IM/SC Injection: Smaller doses of 25–100 mg for maintenance, often weekly or as prescribed.
Adjuncts: NAD⁺ may be paired with nutrient infusions such as The Myers for synergistic metabolic and immune support. Toradol or Zofran can be added to improve comfort, reduce muscle aches, and minimize nausea during infusion.

Frequency of Use

Infusion Protocols: Initial loading series of weekly or bi-weekly infusions, followed by maintenance every 4–6 weeks. Being in tune with how you are feeling helps you determine when you are ready.
Injections: Weekly or biweekly for ongoing cellular support and energy.

Potential Benefits

Increased energy, focus, and motivation
Reduced brain fog and improved cognition
Enhanced mood and stress resilience
Faster recovery from exercise or illness
Improved sleep quality
Support during detoxification and withdrawal

Infusion Duration & Monitoring

Unlike typical nutrient infusions, NAD⁺ therapy requires a longer administration time, typically 1–4 hours, depending on dose and individual tolerance. Nurses carefully monitor infusion rate, vital signs, and client comfort throughout the session to minimize side effects and ensure a safe, pleasant experience.

Side Effects & Safety

Generally well tolerated when administered by trained professionals
Possible mild effects: flushing, chest or abdominal tightness, headache, nausea, muscle soreness at injection site
Infusion speed may impact tolerance, so slow administration is recommended
Use with caution: Patients with heart disease, liver or kidney impairment, or during pregnancy/lactation (limited research)

Schedule Appointment

NAD, known as the "fountain of youth”, therapy restores cellular energy, supports brain and nervous system function, and promotes overall wellness and longevity. Treatments are individualized based on goals and lifestyles and may be administered as IV infusions, add ins to nutrient infusions or routine injections for ongoing wellness and support.
