NAD stands for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. It is a coenzyme found in all living cells and has even been called an antiaging molecule because of the many important roles it plays in promoting health and prolonging lifespan.
This powerful molecule has a lot of potential for new therapeutic opportunities. Studies have shown that it can help battle many effects of aging and chronic conditions on the human body and brain.
Read on to learn more about what exactly the coenzyme is responsible for in your body and how IV NAD+ supplementation can improve your overall health.
What Is NAD+, What It Does & How It Benefits the Body?
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide has two forms—one active and one inactive. In its active form, it is known as NAD+, and in its inactive form, it is known as NADH.
Scientists first discovered NAD+ and started studying its benefits in the early 1900s, but only in recent years are we beginning to understand its full potential.
Because of the role it plays in so many different biological processes, scientists and doctors are now looking at different ways it can be used to maintain healthy organs and neurological systems in human patients.
NAD+ is what’s called a “helper molecule” because it binds to other enzymes in the body to activate them and generate molecular reactions. For example, proteins called “sirtuins,” which are responsible for carrying out many biological processes within the human body, require the coenzyme to function properly.
Biological Processes Aided By NAD+
• Repairing and protecting DNA
• Gene expression
• Extracting cellular energy from nutrition
• Maintaining mitochondrial function
• Chromosomal integrity preservation
• Calcium signaling
• Epigenetic and posttranslational modifications
In layman’s terms, we need NAD+ to live. However, as we get older, our bodies generate less and less of the coenzyme. This is one reason why we begin to feel the effects of aging and become more prone to age-related illnesses as the years pass by.
One of the ways you can supplement NAD+ in your body is through IV therapy. This is a holistic, all-natural way to help your body fight against aging and illness to feel healthier and more youthful.
NAD+ IV Therapy Benefits:
• Slows cognitive decline
• Promotes healthy brain function
• Fights chronic fatigue
• Increases energy
• Boosts metabolism
• Regenerates cells
• Slows aging
• Reduces internal inflammation
Benefits of NAD+ Infusion Therapy For Your Brain
People often describe feeling like a mental fog has been lifted after undergoing NAD+ therapy. This overall improvement in mental sharpness helps guests feel better day to day and contributes to their overall feelings of wellness. Furthermore, one of the most noticeable side effects of getting old is a decline in cognitive function. Forgetting things, lack of concentration, and general mental fogginess are some of the more specific outcomes.
A simple NAD+ IV infusion can help activate your brain’s neuron function by helping cells regenerate and protect them against damage. This results in increased mental cognition, including better mental clarity, higher concentration, and enhanced memory function.
This overall boost in brain function can also help guests overcome other types of mental struggles. IV therapy can help you battle against common conditions like depression, anxiety, and mood disorders.
Reduce Pain
Do you suffer form arthritis?
NAD+ might be able to help. As if the benefits from IV NAD therapy couldn’t get any better, it might help reduce your pain and also promote healing. A 2014 study published results of IV NAD therapy and neuropathic pain. This has implications for people with arthritis and autoimmune disease. They found that administering NAD intravenously helped reduce pain up to 2 days after the last injection. Even though this study was done on mice, it’s impressive nonetheless.
