06 Oct What is NAD+ Therapy and How Does it Support the Body?

Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide, or NAD+, is a coenzyme that is found in every cell of your body – you cannot live without it! This is why Vida-Flo is proud to offer NAD+ treatment, to not only help combat deficiencies but maintain natural levels. Today we’ll be answering the question, “What is NAD+ therapy”, as well as how it supports the body, and the benefits of our NAD+ treatment. Plus, we’ll explain who exactly will benefit from his treatment!

What is NAD+ Therapy?

Let’s start by determining exactly what NAD+ is. NAD+ is essential for cell metabolism – the production of energy by the mitochondria in the cell that allows the specific cell to perform its role and the energy that drives your body. As NAD+ levels lower, you may therefore experience increased signs of aging and higher stress levels. If you have a deficiency, you are at a higher risk for chronic diseases, vision loss, heart disease, and Alzheimer’s disease. However, there are ways to increase your NAD+ levels naturally. Including exercise, experiencing heat (such as from a sauna, hot tub, or hot shower), and specific changes to your diet. Unfortunately, an increase in age may limit these options’ effectiveness, leaving NAD+ treatment to be the best alternative.

Benefits of NAD+

So what are the benefits of NAD+ treatment? Here are some of them:

1. Promotes healthy aging by activating enzymes. Specifically, a group of enzymes that improve overall health and lifespan,  lower stress, repair damaged DNA, and lower inflammation. As well as enzymes that repair damaged DNA and help you live longer.
2. Brain cell protection! NAD+ helps produce a protein called PGC-1-alpha within your brain, which protects brain cells from the damaged functions of the mitochondria and oxidative stress. Lessening your risk of Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease.
3. Reduce your risk of heart disease. As we age, our bodily functions start to decline. For instance, our blood vessels get stiffer and thicker as our blood pressure rises. As a result, our heart has to work harder. However, NAD+ helps reverse these consequences of aging.
4. Weight loss! NAD+ has been shown to boost metabolism.
5. Lower risk for cancer. NAD+ protects your body from oxidative stress and DNA damage, both causes of cancer.
6. Reduce jet lag. NAD+ can help regulate your internal clock, benefitting those who live a jet-setter lifestyle.
7. Support aging of healthy muscles. High levels of NAD+ have been shown to assist with endurance, strength, and overall muscle function.
