Benefits of NAD
1) Boost Your Metabolism
Looking to increase your energy? Want to stop relying on caffeine to get you through the day? 

NAD IV therapy can help. NAD and it’s twin form, NADH are primarily used in redox reactions to generate energy within your cells. Part of this process includes the breakdown of carbohydrates, or sugar. What happens when your body is flooded with sugar? On top of elevated blood sugar levels, your cells start to metabolism the simple carbohydrates leading to an overload of NADH. Excess NADH has been linked to several metabolic conditions. 

Diabetes is one of those conditions. When your body doesn’t have enough NAD, or an overload of NADH, it won’t be able to activate the superhero enzymes sirtuins. Studies have shown that mice with elevated sirtuins were less likely to become diabetic, and were at a decreased risk of fatty liver disease. While IV NAD therapy won’t be able to lower your blood glucose levels, it does produce the same effect as calorie restriction. 

2) Reduce Your Pain 

As if the benefits from IV NAD therapy couldn’t get any better, did you know that it might help reduce your pain and also promote healing? A 2014 study published results of IV NAD therapy and neuropathic pain. 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. 

Boosting your NAD levels will allow your body to heal itself better from injury, especially when it comes to the regeneration of your blood vessels. Diabetic patients are at risk for developing blood vessel damage due to high blood glucose levels. This type of damage may lead to atherosclerosis, or the hardening of your arteries. Not only will NAD promote healing of your insides, but it may also reduce your risk of heart disease. 

3) Effectively Treat Addiction 

Let’s be clear. NAD IV Therapy is NOT a cure for addiction. It’s a natural treatment option that heals the brain on the cellular level and kickstarts recovery. Why is this important? This allows the person struggling with addiction to have a better chance at succeeding with recovery in the long term. 

Addiction is a brain disease with underlying root causes that up until now has not been effectively treated (relapse rates are 50- 90%). The closest effective treatment has been psychotherapy, which actually helps rewire the brain. More research needs to be done regarding NAD and the impact on the brain and addiction. But so far, patients and clinicians have seen incredible transformations when using NAD as a detox method. 

NAD is different from typical treatment options because: 

1. It is natural, compared to toxic pharmaceuticals which mostly harm your brain in the long run.
    
2. It is restorative. NAD helps your cells heal and helps with cellular biogenesis.
    
3. It is protective. NAD has shown to be neuroprotective.
    

The most profound effect of IV NAD is it’s ability to reduce cravings associated with alcohol and opiate withdrawal. NAD is a more natural solution compared to the prescription drugs suboxone, naltrexone or methadone, because there are no toxic side effects from NAD. After only 10-12 consecutive treatments of IV NAD, people battling addiction have a better chance to live a sober and pain free life. Click here to read more on emerging addiction treatments. 

4) Beat Your Fatigue 

Those who suffer from chronic fatigue battle with debilitating symptoms everyday. It’s unclear exactly what causes chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), and there’s currently no diagnostic tests either. Conventional treatment may consist of a combination of antidepressants and sleep medication, but this method is like placing a bandage over an internal injury. IV NAD therapy addresses the core issue by supplying your body with the energy it needs to heal on a cellular level. 

NAD increases production of ATP, which is the currency your cells use for energy. A CFS patient of the NAD Treatment Center states after his first 7-day treatment: 

“It hit me, I started feeling better. I felt amazing. I was even hearing music differently... I just didn’t have the excruciating pain that I had before. I felt eight years of pain melting away.” 

5) Maximize Your Brain Power 

This is a big one. As nootropics become more popular, many people are looking to enhance their cognitive performance with natural supplements. NAD IV therapy is arguably the best nootropic out there. It increases the function of your neurons, protects your cells from damage, toxicity and death, and promotes mitochondrial biogenesis. Overall, if your brain is healthy and functioning at optimal levels, you’ll make better decisions, be more productive, and achieve more. 

Cognitive decline is a trademark symptom for aging. As we get older, our memory becomes fuzzy and we think a little slower. Neurodegeneration describes the loss of structure or function of the neurons. Research is emerging about the neuroprotective effects of sirtuins in the brain. Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) in the hippocampus is has been linked with an increase in memory and learning in mice. Additionally, SIRT1 can protect against amyloid proteins associated with Alzheimer’s and other neurodegenerative disorders. SIRT1 is dependent on
