ABOUT NAD+

Description about the benefits of NAD IV therapy

What is NAD+ and why do I need it?

In short, Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD+) is a naturally occurring enzyme known for its anti-aging effects. It plays a key role in metabolic functions and cell regeneration and serves as a catalyst in brain renovation. This means it can help overcome depression, anxiety, and common mood disorders.

Intravenous (IV) NAD+ activates enzymes in our bloodstream that enable the “good stuff” in our genes, keeping us healthy and youthful. But like most things, it reduces with age. We lose 50% of our natural NAD+ supply by age 50 so it’s up to us to replenish it. Read more about our “Miracle Molecule” here. (Hyperlink NAD landing page)

  • The Afterglow vitamin infusion takes about an hour. The Rewind treatment (500mg of NAD+) takes 2 to 3 hours and Rewind Plus (1000mg NAD+) takes anywhere from 3 to 4 hours.

  • Reactions vary, but you may experience some side effects during the treatment. Because NAD+ works throughout our bodies, increases energy and is highly cellular, physiological sensitivity can occur if the infusion is absorbed too quickly. Common side effects include abdominal cramps, chest tightness or pressure, headaches, nausea, congestion, flushing, and heaviness in the legs. Effects are minimized and remedied with medication for nausea and by reducing the rate of IV administration or pausing administration to restart slowly and find the proper drip rate for your body. This should cause an immediate correction of symptoms.

  • You can, but vitamins aren’t nearly as effective as Intravenous (IV) therapy. IV NAD+ is delivered directly into your bloodstream where it immediately becomes available for your cells to use. Oral supplements pass through your digestive system where they are partially metabolized, limiting your body’s access to the nutrients. This method can also irritate your stomach lining or digestive tract. Because IV NAD+ bypasses the digestive and metabolic systems, your body can absorb 100% of the infusion with minimal waste and maximum effect.

  • The recommended treatment frequency varies from person to person. Most people benefit from treatments spaced two or three weeks apart to maintain general wellness, nutrient levels, and energy. However clients with health conditions or more targeted recovery goals may benefit from a cycle of weekly treatments.
