NAD+ IV Therapy
in San Diego
Support your cellular health with NAD+ IV therapy, a wellness treatment delivering nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide through an intravenous infusion. NAD+ plays an essential role in cellular energy metabolism and many processes that help cells function.
What Is NAD+?
NAD+ stands for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, a coenzyme found in nearly every living cell. It helps your cells complete reactions needed for normal function. One important role involves cellular energy. For example, NAD+ helps turn nutrients into energy your cells can use.
It also supports reactions inside mitochondria, where much of your cellular energy is produced.
However, NAD+ does more than support energy. Your cells also use it for signaling, DNA repair, gene control, and stress responses.
In addition, your body continually makes, uses, breaks down, and recycles NAD+. Vitamin B3 compounds can also help your body produce NAD+. Because NAD+ supports several essential processes, researchers continue studying its role in metabolism, cell health, and aging.
What Does NAD+ Do in the Body?
Think of NAD+ as a helper that keeps important cell reactions moving. It helps enzymes perform jobs that support energy, repair, and normal cell function.
For example, NAD+ and NADH work together to move electrons during metabolism. This process helps your cells produce ATP, a major source of usable energy. The coenzyme also supports enzymes called sirtuins and PARPs. These enzymes take part in signaling, stress responses, gene control, and DNA repair.
Therefore, NAD+ connects energy production with several systems that help cells maintain normal function.
Benefits of NAD+ IV Therapy at Allurant Medical Spa
NAD+ plays an important role in cellular energy, metabolism, and many processes that support healthy cell function. NAD+ IV therapy provides a direct way to replenish NAD+ while supporting your overall wellness and healthy aging goals.
Cellular Energy Support
NAD+ plays an essential role in cellular energy metabolism. Therefore, supporting NAD+ availability may help maintain pathways used for normal energy production.
Cognitive Function
This coenzyme supports metabolism throughout the brain and nervous system. In addition, early research continues exploring its potential role in cognitive function.
Metabolic Support
NAD+ helps regulate metabolic reactions and cellular energy balance. As a result, researchers continue studying NAD-focused therapies for possible metabolic support.
Supports Healthy Aging
Several NAD+ pathways are connected with healthy aging, including energy metabolism and cell maintenance. Therefore, these pathways remain an important focus of longevity research.
Cellular Repair & Maintenance
NAD+ supports enzymes involved in DNA repair, cell signaling, and stress responses. Together, these processes help maintain healthy cell function and stability.
NAD+ and the Science of Aging
Aging affects more than what we see on the outside. Over time, changes also occur in how our cells produce energy and maintain themselves. NAD+ plays an important role in many of these processes. For example, it supports energy, metabolism, repair pathways, and responses to cellular stress.
These functions have made NAD+ an important focus of healthy aging research. In addition, NAD+ IV therapy delivers NAD+ directly through an infusion. The goal is to support NAD+ availability and the cell processes your body relies on with age. Meanwhile, research continues exploring its role in healthy aging.
Why NAD+ Matters as We Age
Think of NAD+ as one resource your cells need for everyday work. It helps turn nutrients into usable energy and supports key maintenance processes. The coenzyme also supports enzymes involved in DNA repair, stress responses, and normal cell function. These processes become especially important as the body ages.
For this reason, healthy NAD+ metabolism remains an important area of longevity research. Scientists continue studying how NAD+ therapies may support cell function with age.
NAD+ IV vs. NAD Supplements
NAD+ IV therapy and oral supplements both support NAD+ availability, but they differ significantly in how they are delivered and used.
NAD+ IV Therapy
- Delivery Method: Administered directly through an IV
- What You Receive: Uses NAD+ itself
- Treatment Schedule: Given during a scheduled infusion
- Administration: Infusion rate can be adjusted during treatment
- Daily Routine: Does not require daily supplementation
NAD+ Supplements
- Delivery Method: Taken orally
- What You Receive: Often uses NAD+ precursors like NR or NMN
- Treatment Schedule: Usually taken regularly at home
- Administration: Uses a predetermined oral dose
- Daily Routine: Often requires consistent daily use

Who Is a Good Candidate for NAD+ IV Therapy?
NAD+ IV therapy may appeal to adults seeking added support for overall wellness and healthy aging goals. It may also interest people focused on cellular energy, metabolism, cognitive wellness, or healthy cell function.
However, NAD+ IV therapy is not right for everyone. Your health history, medications, and wellness goals help determine whether treatment is appropriate. At Allurant Medical Spa, we review these factors before recommending treatment. As a result, your care can better match your needs and goals.
Safety, Side Effects & Considerations
NAD+ IV therapy is usually given gradually because infusion speed can affect comfort. Some people may experience temporary nausea, stomach cramping, flushing, headache, increased heart rate, or chest discomfort.
These effects may occur during an NAD+ IV infusion and usually improve after treatment ends.
Therefore, adjusting the infusion rate may help improve comfort when symptoms occur. Before treatment, your provider reviews your medical history and other relevant factors. This step helps determine whether NAD+ IV therapy is appropriate.
NAD+ IV Therapy: Myths vs. Facts
With growing interest in NAD+ IV therapy, it can be difficult to separate scientific facts from common misconceptions.
Myth:
NAD+ is just another vitamin
Fact:
NAD+ is a coenzyme your cells naturally use for energy metabolism and other essential cellular processes.
Myth:
NAD+ IV and NAD+ supplements are the same
Fact:
NAD+ IV delivers NAD+ intravenously, while many supplements contain precursors your body uses to produce NAD+.
Myth:
NAD+ IV reverses aging
Fact:
NAD+ plays important roles in cellular aging pathways, but NAD+ IV therapy has not been proven to reverse aging.
Myth:
NAD+ only matters for energy
Fact:
NAD+ also supports cellular signaling, metabolism, DNA repair pathways, and other processes involved in normal cellular function.
