Frequently Asked Questions

NAD+ stands for Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide, a coenzyme found in all living cells. It plays a critical role in various biological processes, including energy production and DNA repair. We offer NAD+ in both infusion and injection form in several different dosages to fit the needs of each client.

Yes, NAD+ levels tend to decline significantly, especially after age 40. This decline is believed to contribute to various age-related conditions and may impact cellular function and overall health. Research published in PLoS ONE (2012) documented these age-associated changes in NAD+ metabolism.

Studies suggest that NAD+ supplementation may help improve mitochondrial function, enhance DNA repair, and potentially offer benefits for conditions related to aging, such as neurodegenerative diseases and metabolic disorders. It can also help strengthen immune response, accelerate recovery, reduce pain and inflammation, and improve mental clarity.

NAD+ therapy is generally well received. Potential side effects during IV infusion may include temporary flushing, warmth, chest tightness, or mild gastrointestinal discomfort — these typically subside quickly. As with any treatment, consult with a healthcare professional before using NAD+, especially if you have underlying medical conditions, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or are taking medications.

Injections are quick (under 5 minutes) and deliver lower doses (150-250mg) — ideal for maintenance and busy schedules. Infusions take 1-3 hours but deliver higher doses (500-1000mg) paired with hydration — ideal for deep restoration and maximum benefits. The at-home program offers consistent, self-administered doses over 10 weeks.

For injections: Weekly sessions are recommended for best results. For infusions: Monthly or as needed based on your goals. For at-home: 3 injections per week for 10 weeks. Your nurse can help design a protocol based on your specific needs.

IV infusions typically last 20-45 minutes. NAD+ infusions can take 1-3 hours. Plan accordingly to complete your full infusion.

While there may be brief discomfort during insertion, IV therapy is generally not painful. The benefits far outweigh the quick pinch. Most clients relax, scroll their phones, or even nap during their session.

Frequency depends on your specific needs. Sessions can range from weekly to monthly or as needed. For frequent therapies, we can consult with your personal MD to ensure you're on the right cadence. Schedule a free consultation to figure out what works best for you.
