What Is NAD+ and Why Are People Paying Thousands for IV Therapy?
What Is NAD+ and Why Is Everyone Talking About It?
NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) has become one of the most buzzed-about compounds in the worlds of anti-aging, longevity medicine, and biohacking. Celebrities, athletes, and wellness enthusiasts are paying significant sums for NAD+ IV infusions — but what exactly is it, and is the hype justified?
What Does NAD+ Do?
NAD+ is a naturally occurring coenzyme found in every cell in your body. It plays a critical role in hundreds of biological processes, including energy production in the mitochondria, DNA repair, regulation of cellular aging processes, and supporting healthy metabolic function.
The problem? NAD+ levels naturally decline with age — dramatically. By middle age, most people have significantly lower NAD+ levels than they did in their 20s. This decline has been linked to fatigue, cognitive decline, reduced metabolic efficiency, and accelerated aging at the cellular level.
Why Do People Get NAD+ IV Therapy?
Intravenous NAD+ delivers the compound directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system for maximum bioavailability. Proponents report benefits including increased energy and mental clarity, improved mood and focus, faster recovery from exercise or illness, and general feelings of vitality and wellbeing.
However, IV NAD+ therapy is expensive, time-consuming, and requires a clinical setting — which is why oral and telehealth alternatives have become increasingly popular.
