NAD IV THERAPY FOR ANTI AGING

NAD stands for Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide.    Early in 2018, there was an article in Time Magazine touting the importance of NAD as a source and method of anti-aging.  Here is an extract.

“NAD is the closest we’ve gotten to a fountain of youth,” says David Sinclair, co-director of the Paul F. Glenn Center for the Biology of Aging at Harvard Medical School.  “It’s one of the most important molecules for life to exist, and without it, you’re dead in 30 seconds.  All the good food you’re eating won’t do a thing for you if your cells can’t extract energy from it”.

NAD picks up electrons, becomes NADH, and drops them off as part of the cycle that turns your food into energy that you use to move and think.  On a cellular level, your mitochondria, the battery packs of your cells, use that energy to do the things they need to do to stay alive and to repair themselves when there’s damage or stress.

By replenishing cellular levels of NAD+ via intravenous treatment, it has proven repair of DNA, protect brain cells from damage, reduce inflammation and turn on enzymes that help prevent aging.
