02 Mar The Benefits of NAD+

Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide, or NAD+, is a coenzyme that is found in every cell of your body. Put simply, you can’t live without it! Thankfully, intravenous NAD+ treatments make it easy to combat deficiencies and maintain natural levels. Keep reading to learn about the main benefits of NAD+; an IV treatment that you can receive at any of our Vida-Flo locations in Middle Tennessee.

Reduce Signs of Aging

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is a molecule crucial to our bodies. It is responsible for the ability to repair damage to DNA and diminish the effects of aging. Nicotinamide adenine, a type of Vitamin B3, enhances the body’s ability to produce NAD+, leading to optimal levels for the body’s best use. NAD+ improves cellular energy within the body to improve metabolism and prevent the inflammatory responses that are often found in metabolic syndromes and chronic diseases such as diabetes, obesity, and hypertension (Abdellatif, et al., 2021; Blanco-Vaca et al., 2022).

Assists with Recovery from Substance Abuse

NAD+ research also demonstrates very promising, beneficial results from NAD+ infusion in individuals who are recovering from substance abuse. In fact, NAD+ treatments for addiction date to the early 1960s. As part of an overall treatment plan, NAD+ treatments have demonstrated a statistically significant reduction in cravings and anxiety that often afflicts those who are recovering from drug and alcohol abuse (Blum et al., 2022). Interestingly, Blum noted that more than 90% of the study’s participants were sober two years after treatments that included IV NAD+ therapy.

Improved Cardiovascular Health

The cardiovascular system can also benefit from NAD+. Clinical studies to date have revealed very positive health benefits, specifically for the functions of the heart. Because the heart’s pumping and electrical mechanisms require large amounts of energy, individuals with mild forms of heart failure and certain arrhythmias could benefit from NAD+ therapy. Evidence also supports the positive benefits of NAD+ therapy in reducing further cardiovascular damage. Specifically in those individuals who have suffered a prior myocardial infarction, also known as a heart attack (Abdellatif, et al., 2021).

NAD+ Treatment at Vida-Flo

Vida-Flo offers NAD+ in different dosages for the treatment of a variety of issues. To achieve the intended results, 4 treatments within 14 days at any level are highly recommended. However, 250ml once a month is great for those seeking ongoing support! We suggest booking an appointment at our wellness clinic. At this point, one of our experienced nurses will be able to help you determine the best course of treatment. Overall, those who have undergone NAD+ treatment have experienced a reverse in chronic fatigue, increased energy, and productivity, decreased stress levels, and improved mood – and you can too!

Intravenous administration of NAD+ provides immediate benefits that oral supplementation can’t! If you are ready to start your NAD+ treatments, book an appointment at one of our Middle Tennessee Vida-Flo locations. Or, learn more about the benefits of NAD+.
