NAD+ a.k.a. The Fountain Of Youth
What is it?
NAD+, or Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide, is a coenzyme that is naturally found in all living cells. Coenzymes are “helper molecules” that assist in
converting food into energy for our body to use. NAD+ is specifically found in the mitochondria; the powerhouse of the cell. NAD+ controls other key processes, such as, strengthening the immune system and setting the body’s internal clock. As we age, the level of NAD+ produced decreases, leading to decreased energy in the body. This reduction of NAD+ will inhibit
the ability to repair cells, maintain energy, regulate mood, maintain overall immune health, and much more. NAD+ infusions have been shown to prevent cell damage and increase cell regeneration leading to a healthier and longer lifespan.
What does it do?
NAD+ supports healing at the cellular level by binding to proteins that your body will use to revitalize cells. It is exceptional at boosting overall well-being, brain function, and energy.
A few other benefits of NAD+ IV therapy include:
Clears brain fog * Manage chronic conditions * Increase energy * Increase immune health * Increase cardiovascular function * Enhances mood *Anti-aging
