What is NAD+?

NAD+ is sometimes called the “helper molecule” because it enables enzymes in your cells to carry out essential functions. It fuels your mitochondria, the small structures inside your cells that create energy, and helps keep vital processes running smoothly.

When NAD+ levels drop, cells become less efficient, leading to low energy, poor focus, and a slower metabolism. NAD+ supplementation helps restore these levels to support cell repair and promote overall wellness.

Many patients use NAD+ injections to:

  • Support sustained energy and reduce fatigue
  • Promote healthy brain function and focus
  • Encourage healthy aging and cellular repair
  • Support improved sleep and mood
  • Help maintain healthy metabolism and overall balance

How NAD+ Supports Wellness

Energy Production


NAD+ acts as a critical component in the conversion of nutrients into cellular energy. When levels are maintained, your body produces energy more efficiently, supporting physical endurance, mental clarity, and overall vitality.

Brain Support

NAD+ assists in repairing damaged DNA and maintaining the health of neurons. By supporting brain cell resiliency, NAD+ may help promote sharper thinking, balanced mood, and sustained concentration.

Cell Repair


As a key player in DNA maintenance, NAD+ helps activate proteins that protect and repair cells from daily stressors. This promotes optimal cellular function and supports natural recovery processes throughout the body.

Healthy Aging


NAD+ supports cellular rejuvenation and helps your cells function more youthfully. By encouraging energy production and reducing oxidative stress, NAD+ may support smoother skin, enhanced vitality, and overall wellness.

Sub-Q Dosing Schedule

All NAD+ injections are subcutaneous (Sub-Q) and medically supervised. Patients begin with a lower dose and gradually increase to a maintenance level to ensure comfort and best outcomes.

Standard Titration Plan:

  • Week 1: 20mg injection, 2x per week
  • Week 2: 40mg injection, 2x per week

Each vial contains 10mL (100mg/mL). Injections are administered under physician supervision. Patients are advised to inject slowly and follow dosing instructions provided by their provider.

NAD+ is generally well-tolerated under physician supervision. Mild and temporary side effects can include:

  • Nausea or stomach discomfort
  • Headache or dizziness
  • Fatigue or feeling tired
  • Mild flushing

These effects are usually brief and improve as the body adjusts. Your provider will guide dosing and monitor your progress closely.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is NAD+ and why does it matter?

How do NAD+ injections work?

How often should I get NAD+ injections?

Are NAD+ injections safe?

Can NAD+ help with aging or fatigue?

What is NAD+ and why does it matter?

NAD+ is a coenzyme found in all living cells that helps turn food into energy. It supports DNA repair, cell function, and healthy aging. As we age, NAD+ levels decline, so replenishing them can help maintain vitality and focus.

How do NAD+ injections work?

NAD+ injections deliver a form of this coenzyme directly into the body, bypassing digestion for better absorption. This helps restore cellular energy levels more efficiently than oral supplements and supports mitochondrial function.

How often should I get NAD+ injections?

The typical schedule starts with two injections per week, gradually increasing to a maintenance level of two or three times weekly. Your provider will tailor the schedule based on your response and wellness goals.

Are NAD+ injections safe?

When used under medical supervision, NAD+ injections are generally well-tolerated. Mild and temporary effects may occur, such as nausea or fatigue, but they often resolve quickly.

Can NAD+ help with aging or fatigue?

While results vary, many patients report improved energy, focus, and overall wellness after restoring NAD+ levels. NAD+ supports healthy aging by helping cells repair and function efficiently.
