What Is NAD+?
Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide, more commonly referred to as NAD+, is found in every cell in the body and is essential to life. NAD+ is an essential coenzyme of Vitamin B3 (niacin) that promotes cellular regeneration and regulates how quickly our cells age. It is also involved in the conversion of cellular energy. Studies have found that replenishing cellular levels of NAD+, like via intravenous treatment, can repair DNA, protect brain cells from damage, reduce inflammation and turn on enzymes that help prevent aging.
By activating enzymes called “sirtuins” via intravenous NAD+ directly into your bloodstream, it helps you control your “good genes” in ways that promote healthy aging. In fact, by the time we reach 45 years old, we already have 50% less NAD+ than we did when we were 25.
With 100% intravenous absorption, NAD+ works rapidly to repair cells throughout the body and neurons in the brain. There are over 5,000 different biochemical reactions throughout our bodies and enzymes like NAD+ participate in more reactions than any other vitamin-derived molecule. That’s a huge job for just one enzyme and a humbling new perspective about work.
The NAD+ is considered a “miracle molecule” and can help repair cells throughout the body including neurons in the brain. It is used to power metabolism by enabling the mitochondria – the ‘power stations’ of the cell to convert the food we eat into the energy our body needs to sustain all its functions.
Our bodies naturally produce NAD+ but it has been observed to decline with age, hindering the natural repair mechanisms within our cells. So, if you can increase the levels of NAD+ in your body, you may be able to stay healthy longer. By replenishing cells with NAD+ you are also activating the restorative enzymes involved with regulating inflammation.
Charles Brenner is a researcher focusing on disturbances in nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) and how it relates to diseases and conditions of metabolic stress such as diabetes and cancer. His lab discovered nicotinamide riboside as a vitamin precursor of NAD and developed a technology to identify the disturbances in the NAD system. Animal models indicate that providing nicotinamide riboside is protective. Brenner led the first clinical trial of nicotinamide riboside and is researching how the NAD system is dysregulated in various conditions, with the goal of developing preventative and therapeutic interventions for people.
There are numerous therapeutic benefits from intravenous NAD+ therapy for anti-aging. Patients who have participated in NAD+ Therapy reported increased energy, mental clarity, focus and concentration, improved mood, memory, eyesight, and hearing as well as decreased pain and withdrawal symptoms from hard drugs and alcohol.
Some would even go as far as to call intravenous NAD+ a miracle detox. With proper IV treatment, it can serve as a catalyst in ultimate brain renovation, allowing us to mentally reach higher than ever before. It is also known to alleviate drug dependency through the renovation of opiate receptors. When administered in conjunction with other forms of substance abuse recovery treatments, studies have shown it helps eliminate cravings.
NAD+ can help with DNA repair and slow down the signs of aging and age-related diseases. Preventing aging is much easier than curing it; that is why Aesthetica offers anti-aging services, treatments, and products to help slow down signs of aging. NAD+ IV therapy booster can help increase your body’s natural production.
NAD+ may help:
- Increase cognitive function and memory

- Improve organ function
- Slow down aging by protecting the body against age-related conditions
- Reduce inflammation and pain
- Reduce depression and anxiety
- Enhance athletic performance and recovery
- Improve overall mood
- Improve overall health
Difference between NAD+ & NADH
Your body needs minerals, vitamins, and other nutrients to optimize its cellular functions. NAD+ vitamin therapy provides your body with NAD+.
There are two forms of NAD; NAD+ is the reduced, active form, while NADH is the inactive oxidized form. When your cells have too much NADH and low levels of NAD+, this leads to metabolic problems and chronic conditions, like diabetes and autoimmune diseases.
By supplementing the body with NAD+, you’re providing your body’s mitochondria with the energy it needs to heal and function at its best. This helps your body’s healing processes, creates new cells, and protects your cells from future damage.
Benefits of NAD+
NAD+ has a host of benefits that make it ideal for managing multiple conditions and ailments.
Enhanced Energy levels
Boosted cognitive function
Rejuvenated skin and anti-aging
Optimized cullular function
FAQ
If my body makes NAD+, why do I need an infusion?
NAD+ is naturally found in your body, but production of the coenzyme slows down as you get older. Researchers theorize that the declining NAD+ levels in your cells play a role in age-related changes in the body that affect appearance and health, including cognitive changes like forgetfulness.
NAD+ infusions at Skinspire Laser&Skin Clinic ensures your body has enough of the health-promoting coenzyme to support normal cellular function, slow down and reverse the aging process.
Who’s a Good Candidate for the NAD+ Therapy?
Anyone struggling with the previously mentioned conditions can benefit from NAD+ therapy. Even if you don’t have a specific ailment, you’ll likely find that NAD+ infusions boost your mental clarity, enhance your energy levels, and reduce feelings of anxiety and depression.
What are the benefits of NAD+?
NAD+ has a host of benefits that make it ideal for managing multiple conditions and ailments.
Enhances Athletic Performance
During exercise, your muscles lose a nucleotide known as adenosine triphosphate (ATP) that helps your cells store and transport energy. NAD+ is also reduced by intense exercise.
By supplementing with additional NAD+, you enhance your body’s ability to store and use energy. This boosts your athletic performance and decreases fatigue.
Slows the Signs of Aging
Your body has sirtuins (enzymes) that affect how your body ages. These enzymes deactivate genes that contribute to aging, encourage your body to store fat, and increase inflammation.
NAD+ treatment helps your body produce sirtuins to slow the signs of aging. Since low NAD+ levels are associated with cell damage and aging, increasing NAD+ levels encourage the production of new, healthy cells that keep your body functioning properly.
Reverses Chronic Illnesses and Degenerative Diseases
When the mitochondria in your body don’t work correctly, your body doesn’t have enough energy for your cells, causing negative effects for your health.
Low NAD+ levels lead to low ATP levels; this causes your cells’ energy reserves to suffer, contributing to cell death. How this affects your health varies based on the cells that deteriorate.
If nerve cells are impacted, your cells’ lack of energy can manifest as fatigue, anxiety, depression, and lack of mental focus. When heart cells are affected, this can contribute to cardiovascular disease.
NAD+ infusions give your mitochondria the energy they need to boost energy production and prevent permanent damage. Treating cells with NAD+ can help them survive and recover faster.
Some conditions that NAD+ vitamin therapy may help include:
- Chronic fatigue syndrome
- Multiple sclerosis
- Alzheimer’s disease
- Fibromyalgia
Lowers Pain Levels
NAD+ therapy can aid with healing by ensuring that cells have the energy they need. This also helps reduce your pain levels.
Aids with Addiction Recovery
Individuals struggling with addiction find that NAD+ increases their chances of stopping their substance misuse. NAD+ infusions help balance your NAD levels so that your body can better remove harmful substances.
Ample NAD+ levels also reduce the severity of symptoms that can occur when patients stop misusing drugs and alcohol.
Does NAD IV therapy make me look younger?
NAD+ is a coenzyme that plays an important role in many cellular processes, including energy production and DNA repair. As we age, our cells’ ability to produce NAD declines, which can lead to wrinkles, fine lines, and other signs of aging.
IV therapy can deliver NAD directly to the cells, where it can then be used to help repair damage and promote cell turnover. This can give the skin a more youthful appearance.
How Fast Do I See Results?
Since NAD+ is administered into your blood stream, your body can quickly begin using it. Most people notice results the same day as their infusion. For certain conditions, repeated NAD+ sessions are ideal for the best results.
