Learn about NAD+ IV therapy, its benefits for energy and longevity, and what to expect at IAM Wellness.
1What is NAD+?
NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) is a coenzyme found in every cell of your body. It's essential for cellular energy production, DNA repair, and healthy aging.
2Why does NAD+ IV therapy take so long?
NAD+ must be infused slowly (over 2-4 hours) to minimize side effects like flushing, nausea, or chest tightness that can occur with faster infusions.
3What are the benefits of NAD+ therapy?
Benefits include increased energy, mental clarity, improved mood, better sleep, enhanced metabolic function, and support for healthy aging.
4How long do the effects of NAD+ last?
Many patients feel benefits for 2-4 weeks after a single infusion. Regular treatments can provide cumulative, longer-lasting benefits.
5Is NAD+ therapy safe?
Yes, NAD+ is naturally present in your body and has an excellent safety profile when administered properly by medical professionals.
6Can NAD+ help with addiction recovery?
Yes, NAD+ therapy has shown promise in supporting addiction recovery by helping repair neurological damage and reducing cravings.
7How often should I get NAD+ infusions?
Initial protocols often include 2-3 infusions over 1-2 weeks, followed by monthly maintenance infusions for ongoing benefits.
8What should I expect during my first NAD+ session?
You may experience temporary flushing, warmth, or mild nausea as the infusion begins. These sensations typically subside as we adjust the drip rate.
9Can I combine NAD+ with other treatments?
Yes! NAD+ works synergistically with other therapies like IV vitamins, peptides, and hyperbaric oxygen for enhanced benefits.
10Why do NAD+ levels decline with age?
NAD+ levels naturally decrease as we age due to increased consumption by cellular repair processes and decreased production. This contributes to aging symptoms.
