NAD+

Think of your body as a smartphone; NAD+ is the battery power. Low NAD+ is like a phone on low battery mode—slow and struggling. With enough NAD+, your body runs smoothly, just like a fully charged phone!

NAD or nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, is a special coenzyme in our bodies that helps keep us healthy. It is made up of two tiny parts called nucleotides, one that has adenine and the other that has nicotinamide, which is a form of vitamin B3.

Why does it matter?

As we grow older, the amount of NAD+ in our bodies decreases. This is important because low levels of NAD+ has been linked to age-related diseases and decreased lifespan. When we have enough NAD+, it can help us stay healthy. For example, not getting enough niacin (the vitamin that helps make NAD) can lead to a serious condition called pellagra, which causes issues like skin rashes, diarrhea, mental problems, and can even be deadly [17]

INCLUDES: NAD, Bacteriostatic water (for reconstitution)

• Dosage: 250 mg NAD+ administered IV
• Duration: Administered over 2 hours
• Dosage: 500 mg NAD+ administered IV
• Duration: Administered over 4 hours
• Frequency: Generally, starting with a treatment schedule of 1-2 times per week for the first 4-6 weeks to ensure a robust therapeutic response. After the initial treatments, a maintenance schedule of every 4-6 weeks may be appropriate. Those with a chronic illness or heightened oxidative stress may require more regular therapy.

Loading Dose: With NAD+ IM Shots, there is no loading dose or maintenance shots. With NAD+ IV, 4-5 consecutive days for initial IV Drip treatment. Afterward, most benefits may be achieved with maintenance doses every 4 to 8 weeks. However, taking a loading dose of NAD+ is not strictly necessary for everyone to experience its benefits.

What is a Loading Dose?

A loading dose is a higher initial dose of a medication or supplement taken to quickly increase the levels of a substance in the body.

Contraindications:

• Known allergy or hypersensitivity to NAD+ or its components.
• Severe hepatic or renal impairment.
• Cardiovascular disease or bleeding disorders.
• History of cancer (including skin cancer).
• Any exceptions or letters of clearance must be approved by the supervisory team or noted in the GFE.
