request an appointmentWhat is NAD+ infusion therapy?
The treatment uses an intravenous (IV) infusion to deliver NAD+ into your bloodstream. NAD+ is a molecule in every cell of your body. It’s essential for a multitude of biochemical reactions that support your health and well-being.
You need NAD+ to produce energy and keep your nerves, brain, and organs functioning. NAD+ repairs DNA produces neurotransmitters, protects cells from toxic waste, and strengthens your immune system. And these are only a few examples of NAD+’s roles.
When NAD+ levels fall, you become more vulnerable to developing health problems, including:
- Infections
- Atherosclerosis
- High blood pressure
- Dementia
- Parkinson’s disease
- Type 2 diabetes
NAD+ deficiencies also contribute to chronic inflammatory conditions like asthma, heart disease, and rheumatoid arthritis.
When would I need NAD+ infusion therapy?
You need this treatment at Donya Pain and Wellness Center when your NAD+ supply is too low. NAD+ naturally declines with age. Your levels can also drop if you don’t get enough niacin (vitamin B3) because your body needs it to produce NAD+. Excessive physical stress, whether due to illness, a chronic condition, injury, or intense athletics, also depletes your NAD+ supply.
What benefits do I gain from NAD+ infusion therapy?
In addition to increasing your energy, NAD+ infusion therapy:
Promotes weight loss
One of the biggest benefits of NAD+ is its impact on your metabolism. You need a good supply of NAD+ to break down food and stimulate weight loss.
Fights aging
NAD+ is an anti-aging molecule because it supports proteins that repair DNA, protects cells from age-related damage, and helps prevent some age-related diseases.
Helps your muscles recover
As a molecule that supports numerous cellular activities, NAD+ maintains muscle strength and promotes recovery after intense exercise.
Treats addictions
NAD+ helps cells repair the damage caused by excessive substance use, including repairing the nerve pathways in your brain that were altered as a result of an addiction. As NAD+ improves your brain, it may help stop cravings.
Combats depression
Getting an NAD+ infusion often improves your mood.
Boosts cognition and protects your brain
Studies show that NAD+ may prevent vascular dementia by fighting inflammation. It may also boost cognition by keeping neurons healthy and promoting communication between brain nerves.
Improves your general well-being
A dose of NAD+ revitalizes the many processes vital to your general well-being.
