Murrieta integrative functional medicine specialists of An Optimal You are helping Riverside County patients nourish their bodies to optimal health on a cellular level with NAD+.
Your body depends on vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients to function effectively and improve your overall wellness. NAD+ is a coenzyme found in all living cells that is the key to unlocking your optimal self. We need it to live. Unfortunately, as we age, our body’s NAD+ levels naturally decrease. These lowering levels can make you more susceptible to signs of aging and age-related illnesses.
The most effective way to boost your natural levels of this coenzyme and improve your wellness is through NAD+ IV therapy. This type of therapy nourishes the body at the cellular level so you can go back to feeling at your best!

What is NAD+?
NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) is one of the most important substances in the body for overall health and the aging process. NAD+ assists with the cellular function that keeps living things alive. It involves converting the food you eat into cellular energy, repairing DNA, and fortifying your cellular defense system. NAD+ is required for mitochondria to create Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP), the energy source for all cells in your body. Without ATP, the cells in your body cannot function.

Forms of NAD+ Supplementation
There are oral supplements of NAD+. However, NAD+ is a sensitive coenzyme and quickly degrades. Therefore, it is doubtful that an oral supplementation could maintain the potency of NAD+ to result in actual increased NAD+ levels within the body.
NAD+ can be given via an effective IV infusion. However, IV infusions are time-consuming and relatively expensive. These IVs must be given very slowly over about 2-4 hours. It takes about 15-20 IVs to achieve a therapeutic dose. Therefore, NAD+ IVs are not commonly done.
Most people require at least 10 grams of NAD+ supplementation to achieve the desired results and long-term benefits. Acquiring 10 grams of NAD+ supplementation can easily be done by administering NAD+ injections. It can be given a couple of times a week, or even daily, in the comfort of your home. It is a simple intramuscular injection.
NAD+ injectable syringes are kept in the freezer since NAD+ is unstable at warm temperatures. The syringe is quickly thawed to room temperature within 1-2 minutes for a quick injection. The NAD+ injections are well tolerated and provide consistently positive results. It typically takes 2-3 injections per week for three months to see long-term benefits. However, short-term benefits can be noticed immediately.
