NAD + 10 big benefits of a revolutionary treatment

NAD+ may be administered through an intravenous infusion ‘drip’ or through a small intramuscular injection.

What Is NAD+ Therapy?

NAD – Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide – is a molecule which is found in every cell of the body. It has a crucial role in transferring the energy we get from food to the rest of the body, and is known as a ‘helper’ molecule for its many duties in the body.

NAD has two variants, NAD+ and NADH. Both are absolutely critical in maintaining proper cellular function.

As we age, levels of NAD in the body decrease and this leads to impaired mitochondria function. You can think of the mitochondria as the battery that powers each cell – when they don’t work as well, our bodies feel tired and the aging process accelerates.

NAD therapy is an innovative treatment that delivers a high dose of NAD+ directly into the bloodstream through an IV drip. This means that the NAD+ bypasses the digestive system and is absorbed efficiently.

The boost in NAD+ has many incredible benefits for your body. Here are 10 ways that it can improve your health:

1 Improving mental health

Increasing our natural neurotransmitter levels - dopamine, serotonin, and nor-adrenaline which are artificially depleted during periods of anxiety and low mood.

2 Helping To Banish Addiction

When drugs and alcohol are used excessively, the body’s natural stores of NAD+ are depleted. This means that the brain can’t get the same amount of energy that it normally would from food.

Replenishing NAD+ levels with NAD infusion therapy restores the body to normal function, leading to:

• All of the drugs in the system being flushed out.

• A reduction in uncomfortable withdrawal effects.

• Less cravings for alcohol and drugs.

• Higher and more stable energy levels.

All of these combined result in a smoother time when trying to break the addiction cycle. The increased energy levels and better focus mean that it is easier to take up healing activities such as yoga and meditation.

NAD+ is a natural alternative to some other methods of beating addiction which include medications.

2 Providing A Metabolism Boost

If you’re feeling low on energy, the problem might be your metabolism. If your metabolism is slow, then you won’t be getting all of the energy that you should be from the food that you eat. Additionally, if your body is not breaking down carbohydrates and sugar properly, you are at risk of several conditions, including diabetes.

An IV NAD+ drip can help by boosting your NAD+ levels, which can improve your metabolism. You’ll feel more energetic and you could lose weight too.

3 Reducing Pain

Chronic pain is uncomfortable and debilitating. It’s defined as any pain which lasts for at least 3 to 6 months, and it is very difficult to treat without resorting to painkillers (which you can build a tolerance for – meaning that they will stop working as well – or even addiction). Chronic pain can also lead to other health issues, such as:

• Insomnia

• Poor concentration and memory

• Anxiety

• Depression

This creates a vicious cycle which is very difficult to break out of.

A NAD+ treatment can help by encouraging your body to repair itself. Your cells use the NAD boost to repair themselves, promoting healing from the inside out.

Sometimes, chronic pain is caused by inflammation. NAD+ is also crucial in reducing this inflammation, so painful symptoms also decrease.

4 Beating Fatigue

We’ve all been there – you have grand plans to power through your to do list or hit the gym, but exhaustion hits and you can’t seem to get anything done. When this goes one step further and becomes chronic fatigue, it is difficult to carry out any daily chores.

Studies have shown that low levels of NAD are linked to chronic fatigue, and this makes sense – if your body isn’t able to convert and deliver energy to cells efficiently, then you will feel tired.

A NAD IV treatment gives your body the extra NAD+ it needs to get working properly, giving you more energy.

Even if you’re generally healthy, a NAD+ infusion can give you a massive stamina boost. Perfect just before a big meeting or gym session.

5 Maximising Your Brain Power

Have you noticed that as you get older, your brain doesn’t quite work the way it used to? Maybe your memory isn’t as good, it takes you longer to do simple arithmetic and you just don’t feel as sharp.

This is because the neurons in your brain lose structure as we get older; this process is known as neurodegeneration. The pathways in your brain are no longer as connected as they once were.

NAD treatment works by replenishing drained enzymes and beginning brain restoration. This improves cognitive function, making your brain work faster. This will also improve your sleep, help to beat stress and anxiety and generally improve your wellbeing.

So if you’re looking for better concentration, memory and mood, NAD brain restoration therapy is just the thing you need. This gives you a welcome edge before a work event or if you need to harness your creativity.

6 Incredible Anti-Aging Power

In order to look and feel young, inside and out, you need to have long telomeres – these are DNA strand end caps that spot our chromosomes from unraveling. Proteins called ‘sirtuins’ play a crucial role in maintaining the length of telomeres – and guess what is required to make sirtuins work? That’s right, it’s NAD+.

NAD+ therapy helps those sirtuins work more efficiently, and so you stay looking and feeling youthful, improving longevity.

NAD+ has other anti-aging roles too. DNA damage accelerates the aging process, and can result in serious diseases like cancer. Fortunately, the body counters DNA damage using an enzyme called PARP-1 which repairs DNA and prevents cell death. However, PARP-1 needs a lot of NAD+ to work, and if the supplies of NAD+ are depleted then PARP-1 can’t carry out this important function. NAD infusion therapy restores your stocks, and helps with vital DNA repair.

The result? Not only do you look better, but you feel better too.

7 Reducing Your Risk Of Heart Disease

Heart disease is the term that describes what happens when your heart’s supply of blood is blocked by build-up in the coronary arteries. It is a major cause of death worldwide, and can be triggered by:

• Smoking

• High cholesterol

• High blood pressure

• Diabetes

Studies have shown that patients with low NAD+ levels are at a higher risk of heart disease, and others have shown that when the body is experiencing heart disease, it works harder to produce NAD+ to help it to heal itself.

Utilising NAD+ therapy can lower your risk of heart disease, alongside maintaining a healthy lifestyle, by keeping the veins and arteries strong and in good condition.

8 Helping Towards Your Weight Loss Goals

Losing weight can be a struggle, and sometimes it can seem that no matter how hard you work, your goal is out of reach. It doesn’t have to be that way, though.

It is well known that fasting and calorie restriction kickstart changes in the body that lower blood pressure, slow down aging and protect against disease. Incredibly, a NAD infusion can cause the same effects in the body as cutting food consumption by a third.

A NAD+ drip has other great weight loss effects; it gives you more energy, so you can work out for longer, burning more calories. Because your body is working more efficiently to convert energy from food, your cravings for unhealthy foods is also curbed.

9 Improving Athletic Performance

If you are serious about sport (or want to be serious about sport!), you’ll know that recovery after exercise is one of the most important elements of working out. It is during this recovery time that the body adapts to the stressf exercise, replenishes energy stores and repairs damaged tissues.

Exercise of any kind causes muscle tissue breakdown, and it is during recovery, when the tissue is repaired, that you get stronger, faster and better.

When you want to perform at your best, it is hard to avoid overtraining (when you don’t give your body enough time to recover) – this can lead to:

• Depression

• Decreased sports performance

• Increased risk of injury

You want to reach your peak and you can only do this by exercising frequently, but overtraining could leave you injured and unable to train for months. The balance is hard to reach. This is where NAD+ intravenous drip therapy can come in.

An increase in NAD+ levels ensures your mitochondria are working well, ensuring peak cell performance. This has many benefits for athletes, including:

• Faster recovery times because your body is working more efficiently.

• Increased mental clarity and endurance.

• Improved strength.

So if you want to be at the top of your game, consider NAD+ IV therapy.

10 Promoting Healthy Muscle Aging

As we get older, it can be more difficult to do the things we used to do – whether it’s mountain climbing, cycling or walking – and the chance of injury as we go about our daily lives gets higher. This is because our muscles begin to break down as we age. Strong, healthy muscles keep us flexible and ensure our joints work correctly; when they start to become brittle we don’t bounce back as we used to.

This can become a vicious cycle; if you do less exercise because you don’t feel strong, your muscles get even weaker and the aging process speeds up.

Fortunately, studies have shown muscular and skeletal regeneration following increased NAD+ levels. So, NAD therapy can leave you feeling fitter, healthier and keep you active as you age.

Data/ studies about NAD+

The data behind NAD+ is becoming increasingly robust.  In 2020, a systematic review of the literature available on Medline, Embase and Pubmed was undertaken to evaluate the potential health and/or longevity benefits due to increasing NAD+ levels. This totalled of 147 articles (113 preclinical and 34 clinical).

Studies 

The review found that a significant majority of the studies indicated that the NAD+ and its precursors NAM, NR, nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) had a favourable outcome on several age-related disorders associated with the accumulation of chronic oxidative stress (an imbalance between free radicals and antioxidants in your body), inflammation (like that found in Long COVID, Obesity, Chronic stress and a number of other conditions) and impaired mitochondrial function. 

Our NAD+ formuation can be administered on its own or in combination with any of our below IV infusions:

Our specially formulated IV Nutrient products are not mixed with any medicines; the active ingredients are solely vitamins, minerals and amino acids diluted in saline or water for injection.

Our products are free from preservatives, Gluten-Free, GMO Free, Sugar Free, Heavy Meatl Free, Vegan Friendly, containing NO traces of animals.

Is intravenous nutrition safe?

The substances used in IVNT are vitamins, minerals, and amino acids, all of which are classified as ‘Essential Nutrients’. It’s an apt name, as they are ‘essential’ for life, however they are also nutrients that the body cannot synthesize on its own. Traditionally they were obtained from food we eat, but modern food is often modified and over processed, leaving many of us severely deficient in these essential nutrients.

By balancing our levels through IV nutrient infusions, under the expert advice of Dr. Dan, our bodies can be restored to peak fitness and maximum energy performance.

Fast-acting with long-lasting effects: How often should I have an infusion?

Initially, we recommend a course of 5 infusions over a relatively intense time period- normally 5 weeks. During this period, we steadily increase your NAD+ dosage. Thereafter, we recommend an infusion every 3-4 months to keep NAD+ at a therapeutic level.
