NAD & Its Use in IV Therapy
WHAT IS NAD?
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is a coenzyme that is present in every living cell and plays a critical role in metabolic processes associated with cellular bioenergetics. Therefore, NAD is involved in life processes as aging, cancer, and neurodegenerative and metabolic disorders.
Cellular NAD is present within the body in two forms - oxidized (NAD+) and reduced (NADH) . NAD+ interacts with FAD+ in a chemical reaction, that results in the acceptance of high-energy electrons where they get synthesized to create ATP, the molecule responsible for our energy. A proper balance of these oxidized and reduced molecules are critical for normal cell function and viability. An ongoing imbalance of NAD+ has shown to be a contribution to metabolic disorders and neurodegenerative disorders, such as diabetes, Alzheimer’s, and Parkinson’s.
how does nad iv therapy work?
Naturally, with age, stress, and environmental factors, NAD levels decline. Supplementation with NAD+ IV Therapy delivers NAD+ along with vitamins including B-complex vitamins, Vitamin B12, Vitamin C, Magnesium, Glutathione, directly into the bloodstream. An intravenous injection will deliver the vitamins in the most efficient and effective way to restore balanced levels of the coenzyme.
