What Is NAD+?

Your body runs on NAD+ — and you're running low.

NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) is a coenzyme found in every living cell. It is the essential spark plug that ignites your cellular engine — without it, nothing works. NAD+ plays a critical role in converting the food you eat into the energy your cells actually use, and it activates proteins called sirtuins that repair and protect your DNA.

The challenge? From your 20s onward, your NAD+ levels begin a steady, unavoidable decline. By age 50, most people have lost half their NAD+. Researchers at Harvard, MIT, and Washington University now link this decline to the hallmarks of aging: fatigue, cognitive fog, slower metabolism, and reduced cellular repair capacity.

Unlike oral supplements — which must survive digestion and are poorly absorbed — IV NAD+ delivers the coenzyme directly into your bloodstream, achieving 100% bioavailability with every single infusion.

What the Researchers Are Saying
"NAD+ is so important for life that without it, you'd be dead in seconds." — Dr. David Sinclair, Professor of Genetics, Harvard Medical School

Dr. Sinclair's lab at Harvard has been at the forefront of NAD+ longevity research for over a decade. His 2013 Cell paper — co-authored with MIT's Leonard Guarente — established the sirtuin-NAD+ connection as a central pillar of the biology of aging, sparking a global wave of clinical research that continues today.

"Increasing NAD+ levels in older animals can reverse aspects of aging in multiple tissues." — Zhu et al., Cell Metabolism, 2015
The Decline Is Real

Your NAD+ levels are falling right now

Research published in Cell Metabolism confirms NAD+ drops approximately 50% between age 20 and 50. This is the biology of why we feel older — and it's reversible.

Six Science-Backed Benefits

What NAD+ IV Therapy Does for You

Restored Cellular Energy

NAD+ is the essential partner to ATP — your cellular fuel. When replenished, mitochondria ramp up production dramatically. Most clients report noticeable, lasting energy improvements within 24–48 hours of their first infusion.

Ref: Yoshino et al., Cell Metabolism 2021
Mental Clarity & Focus

NAD+ fuels the brain's energy-hungry neurons and activates SIRT1 — a protein that protects brain cells from degeneration. Clients frequently report dramatic lifting of "brain fog," improved memory, and sharper thinking after sessions.

Ref: Gong et al., Nature Aging 2020
DNA Repair & Protection

NAD+ fuels PARP enzymes — your body's DNA repair crew. Every day your DNA sustains damage from UV, toxins, and metabolic byproducts. Sufficient NAD+ allows your cells to fix this damage before it accumulates and accelerates aging.

Ref: Fang et al., Cell Reports 2016
Metabolism Support

Sirtuins activated by NAD+ regulate metabolic health, including how your body processes and burns nutrients. Research shows NAD+ restoration can help reverse metabolic decline associated with aging and sedentary lifestyles.

Ref: Canto et al., Cell Metabolism 2012
Longevity Activation

Sirtuins (SIRT1–SIRT7) are your longevity proteins, activated only by NAD+. They silence aging-related genes, reduce inflammation, and maintain the protective caps on your chromosomes (telomeres) — a direct biological marker of cellular age.

Ref: Sinclair & Guarente, Cell 2014
Muscle & Physical Recovery

NAD+ supports muscle stem cell activation and mitochondrial function in muscle tissue. A landmark Washington University study showed that NAD+ precursor supplementation improved muscle metabolism and physical performance in older adults.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How is IV NAD+ different from an oral supplement? +
Oral NAD+ precursors must survive digestion and conversion before reaching your cells — a process that dramatically reduces bioavailability. IV delivery bypasses the gut entirely, placing NAD+ directly into your bloodstream where every molecule reaches your cells immediately. This is the critical difference between feeling results and not.
How many sessions do I need? +
Most clients begin with a loading protocol of 4–10 sessions over 2–4 weeks, then transition to monthly or quarterly maintenance. Some notice dramatic results after a single session; cumulative sessions tend to produce more profound and lasting results.
Is it safe? Are there side effects? +
NAD+ is a naturally occurring molecule your body produces every day. IV NAD+ has a strong clinical safety profile. Some clients experience temporary flushing or chest warmth if the infusion rate is too fast — which is why our licensed RNs administer all infusions slowly and monitor you throughout. These sensations resolve immediately when the rate is adjusted.
When will I feel results? +
Many clients notice something during or immediately after the infusion — heightened alertness or a sense of clarity. The most notable effects typically emerge 24–72 hours later. Energy restoration, improved sleep quality, and mental performance improvements are the most commonly reported early benefits.
Is NAD+ therapy right for me if I already feel healthy? +
Absolutely. Many of our most satisfied clients are already healthy, high-performing individuals who use NAD+ therapy as a proactive longevity investment — not a response to illness. Athletes, executives, and wellness-focused adults over 35 make up a significant portion of our regular NAD+ clients.
