NAD+

Updated: Dec 23, 2023

How is NAD+ given? NAD+ is a patient specific nutrient that can be given as a slow IV infusion or as a subcutaneous injection (under the skin). What does patient specific mean? Our provider will help you determine if NAD+ may be right for you and send a prescription to our pharmacy. You can have it shipped to you or our clinic location.




One of the key benefits of NAD+ is its role in energy metabolism. NAD+ is involved in the process of converting food into energy, known as cellular respiration. It helps transfer electrons from molecules like glucose to the electron transport chain, which ultimately produces energy in the form of ATP. By improving energy metabolism, NAD+ can help reduce fatigue and improve overall energy levels.





Another benefit of NAD+ is its role in DNA repair. NAD+ is a crucial component of a family of enzymes called PARPs (poly ADP-ribose polymerases), which are responsible for repairing damaged DNA. By supporting DNA repair, NAD+ can help protect against cell damage and the development of diseases such as cancer.


NAD+ also has anti-aging properties. NAD+ levels decrease as we age, and this decrease is linked to age-related diseases and a decline in overall health. By supplementing with NAD+, it may help to restore NAD+ levels in the body and counteract some of the negative effects of aging.


In addition to its roles in energy metabolism, DNA repair, and anti-aging, NAD+ has been found to have benefits in other areas, such as improving cognitive function and reducing the symptoms of depression and anxiety.


NAD+ supplements are available as oral supplements, IV infusions, or subcutaneous injections. The best way to get good absorption is through an IV infusion or routine subcutaneous injections. At Rise Up Health, we offer prescriptions for subcutanous injections.


In conclusion, NAD+ is a molecule with multiple benefits for the body, including improving energy metabolism, DNA repair, and anti-aging properties. It is also been found to have benefits in other areas such as cognitive function and mental health. While more research is needed to fully understand the potential benefits of NAD+ supplementation, it is clear that this molecule plays a vital role in overall health and wellness.
