NAD+ THERAPY
How Does NAD Therapy Work?
NAD (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) is a chemical molecule found in each cell of your body. It is the active enzyme form of Vitamin B3 (Niacin).
NAD+ therapy has been studied for decades, and recent research has proven benefits that could change lives significantly. Our NAD+ Drip delivers a high-dose of this essential coenzyme directly into your blood stream, ensuring 100% absorption. NAD coats the brain cells and the rest of the body’s cells with required nutrients, which has a positive outcome on mental and physical functioning. Some of these benefits may include improved mental clarity, more energy, better brain function, and increased athletic performance.
The best part about NAD therapy is that it supports cellular healing and incorporates into your lifestyle. In addition to IV therapy, NAD enzymes can also be delivered to your body through supplements. NAD boosters have proven to improve cognitive and sensory function and help regulate metabolic pathways.
Sirtuins are a family of proteins that play a role in aging by regulating cellular health. They are responsible for critical biological functions like DNA expression and aspects of aging.
NAD Activates Sirtuin Enzymes
Sirtuins require NAD in order to be activated. There are seven different sirtuin enzymes that mainly function to turn on or off gene expression. Many of these genes are linked to regulate inflammation, along with enhancing energy metabolism and cell vitality. Sirtuins are known to play a protective role in neurodegeneration, and other inflammatory-releated diseases.

- Longevity
Battle Addiction
Fighting addiction is a long and challenging process. However, with determination and persistence, you can battle addiction effectively and never have to go down that road again.
One of the primary functions of NAD+ therapy is its effects on helping people who battle addiction. The treatment has a 90% success rate at reducing cravings and a 7% relapse rate. Beating regular cravings is the most challenging part of the way to recovery. NAD+ IV treatment can reduce or even eliminate cravings, making it easier for people to fight their urges. NAD enzymes bind with the opiate receptors that create a sensation upon the consumption of alcohol or drugs. Once NAD is bound with receptors, the cravings are reduced along with the chances of a relapse. By revitalizing your cells, NAD therapy also helps reverse the adverse side effects caused by drugs and alcohol abuse. Reversing the effects of substance abuse on your liver helps an addict recover quickly and lead an everyday life.
In addition, IV NAD treatment also helps with addiction by detoxifying your body, assisting with brain restoration, neurotransmitter repair, reducing fatigue, and boosting your energy levels. With improved energy levels and cognitive function, the road to recovery for an addict becomes much more manageable. The best part about NAD IV therapy is that it absorbs directly into your bloodstream, helping produce fast and effective results.
Although NAD+ IV Therapy is NOT a cure for addiction, it is a natural therapy option that helps heal the brain on the cellular level and kickstarts recovery.
Anxiety & Depression
If you often find it hard to concentrate or focus during the day, you might be experiencing brain fog. While brain fog is not a severe neurological condition, it can interfere with your daily life and reduce productivity significantly. NAD IV therapy improves cognitive function by saturating the cells in your brain with the nutrients it needs to get you to perform better. With an improved metabolism and higher energy levels, NAD therapy also helps supercharge your brainpower and enhances your brain functionality. This benefit is ideal for those who often experience brain fog and find it hard to focus on the task at hand. In addition, NAD therapy also allows you to rely less on coffee for energy and improves your memory.
Manage Chronic Conditions
NAD IV therapy also offers various benefits to your body in addition to helping you battle addiction and improve cognitive function. NAD enzyme binds itself with your cell receptors and plays an active role in activating antioxidants and reducing inflammation, which helps manage a host of chronic conditions and reduces pain.
In addition, NAD therapy is also effective when it comes to managing diabetes by supporting cellular function. It also helps manage mental health issues such as depression and mood disorders by increasing serotonin levels. The increase in serotonin levels helps stabilize mood and fights depression.
Improves overall Well-Being
IV NAD therapy flushes out the toxins in your body that result from substance abuse or stress. While we recommend frequent IV infusions for maximum effectiveness, most people notice signs of improved energy levels after their first infusion.
In addition, IV NAD therapy also helps athletes improve their performance by increasing their energy levels. Combined with healthy diet and exercise, the infusions can help everyone lead an improved lifestyle.
Anti Aging
As we age, our body experiences a decline in all its aspects. Energy levels, metabolic rate, and brain functionality reduce at high speed. As we age our NAD levels in the cells drop.
Improving this intracellular level of NAD strengthens cells and prevents damage and further deterioration.
NAD therapy improves your cellular functionality by helping the powerhouse of your cells - mitochondria. Therefore, it helps reduce the side-effects of aging and makes you feel more energetic and healthy even as you age.
Turning back the Clock with NAD
NAD encourages new connections in the brain resulting in heightened senses and clarity of thought.
Scientists at Harvard Medical School have found a way to use NAD in the reversing of accumulated DNA damage. NAD activates the enzyme responsible for DNA repair.
A recent 2017 report from the Harvard Medical School Genetics laboratory found that NAD can help restore youthful levels of DNA repair and even reverse the effects of radiation.
For more information on how NAD regulates protein to protein interactions that are involved in DNA repair, you can read this article in Science Magazine.
This article from Harvard Medical school entitled Rewinding the Clock also goes in depth on how NAD can naturally help reverse the effects of aging.FAQs
Most frequent questions and answers
As with all treatments, everyone is different and has different needs based on their health status and lifestyle. The number of infusions and doses will depend on the condition the patient is trying to treat.
After your initial consult, the NAD program will be tailored to fit your needs and your specific symptoms. For those generally healthy individuals who are seeing early signs of aging, fatigue, or just need a boost, our recommendation is to start with a “loading dose”, 3-4 consecutive days of 700mg of NAD. After this, we recommend one treatment every 4-6 weeks.
For example, if you are receiving NAD therapy to help manage conditions, such as burnout, anxiety, depression, or brain fog, we recommend receiving 4-6 infusions (300mg each) during the first 2 weeks.
NAD therapy to support addiction will require 10 consecutive days of high dose (700mg-1,000mg/infusion) treatments.
The price for our NAD Drip starts at $MXN3,800 for 300mg dose and $MXN6,500 for the 700mg dose.
Package pricings are available for patients looking to manage conditions, such as anxiety, depression, brain fog, addiction, or anti-aging. Contact us for details.
The period it takes for NAD to become effective depends upon the person’s medical history and the driving factor behind the infusions. If the patient has a chronic condition, 2-3 treatments have to be administered to notice positive signs. However, some people report improved energy levels after receiving one infusion.
NAD infusions bind themselves with the receptors that produce the ‘feel-good’ sensation upon consuming substances. This helps fight the cravings and reduces the possibility of a relapse, helping an addict recover successfully.
NAD IV treatments can significantly improve energy levels, helping athletes perform better in sports.
NAD IV treatments are the most effective as it absorbs directly into your bloodstream, which helps produce the best results.
Yes. NAD is found in every cell of your body. There are no known negative side effects to NAD infusion therapy. Thousands of people have received NAD treatments with no known adverse effects or reactions. While extremely safe and perfectly legal, NAD infusion therapy is not yet approved by the FDA. However, there are many studies currently being conducted.
A 300mg NAD drip takes approximately 90 min to administer. A 700mg NAD drip may take up to 3-3.5 hours. Some patients may need additional time, so be mindful of this when booking your appointment.
