NAD+ Infusions
Supporting Energy, Recovery, and Cellular Health
Life’s demands, whether from illness, stress, ageing, or even intensive treatments, can leave you feeling depleted. One option some people explore to restore energy and support recovery is NAD⁺ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) intravenous infusions.
NAD⁺ therapy is a way to help replenish your body at the cellular level, under the guidance of our experienced and accredited healthcare team. All ingredients are compounded through a Medsafe-approved pharmacy, ensuring the highest quality and safety.
What Is NAD⁺ and Why Does It Matter?
NAD⁺ is a coenzyme found in every cell in your body, essential for producing energy (ATP), repairing DNA, and regulating cell health. Levels of NAD⁺ naturally decline with age, stress, and chronic illness. This decline is thought to contribute to fatigue, brain fog, slower recovery, and cellular ageing.
By delivering NAD⁺ directly into the bloodstream, much higher levels can be achieved than with oral supplements, allowing cells immediate access to this important molecule.
Potential Benefits of NAD⁺
Energy & Vitality
Many patients report feeling more energetic, clearer-headed, and less fatigued following NAD⁺ infusions. This is because NAD⁺ directly supports mitochondrial function—the “powerhouses” of your cells.
Cognitive Support
Some studies suggest NAD⁺ plays a role in neuroprotection, supporting memory, focus, and mood regulation. It is being explored in conditions such as neurodegenerative disorders and age-related cognitive decline.¹
Recovery & Resilience
Early research indicates NAD⁺ may help reduce inflammation, oxidative stress, and cell damage, supporting recovery from physical stress, illness, or intensive treatments.²
The Science So Far
While research into NAD⁺ therapy is still emerging, there is growing interest in its potential:
- Preclinical studies show NAD⁺ replenishment supports DNA repair, reduces oxidative stress, and improves metabolic function.² ³
- Pilot human studies suggest potential benefits in fatigue, mitochondrial health, and neurological conditions, although more large-scale trials are needed.⁴
- A 2021 review in Frontiers in Aging highlighted NAD⁺ precursors and IV delivery as promising strategies for healthy ageing and disease support.³
Typical Dosing
- Common practice: NAD⁺ doses range from 250 mg to 750 mg per session, administered slowly over 1.5–4 hours to minimise side effects.
- Frequency: Often given as a series (e.g. several infusions across 1–2 weeks), followed by maintenance infusions as needed.
- Individualised care: Your exact protocol is tailored to your health goals, tolerance, and medical background.
Safety & Considerations
NAD⁺ is generally well tolerated, though some people may experience temporary flushing, chest tightness, or nausea if the infusion runs too quickly. Our team carefully monitors rates to ensure your comfort and safety.
As with all therapies, NAD⁺ should be delivered by trained professionals in a safe clinical environment.
