NAD+ Therapy

What Is NAD+ Therapy?

NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a coenzyme found in every cell of your body that plays a critical role in cellular energy production, DNA repair, and longevity pathways. NAD+ levels naturally decline with age, contributing to reduced energy, slower cellular repair, cognitive decline, and accelerated aging. NAD+ therapy involves infusing bioavailable NAD+ directly into your bloodstream, bypassing digestion to deliver maximum cellular impact. At Luxe Forté, we offer pharmaceutical-grade NAD+ infusions designed to restore cellular energy, support repair processes, and promote longevity at the deepest level.

Think of NAD+ as the fuel your cells need to function optimally-and NAD+ therapy as the premium octane upgrade for your cellular engine.

How Does NAD+ Therapy Work?

NAD+ functions as a critical electron carrier in multiple cellular processes:

• Energy production: NAD+ is essential for converting nutrients into ATP (adenosine triphosphate), the energy currency of cells
• DNA repair: NAD+-dependent enzymes (sirtuins) activate DNA repair mechanisms that slow aging at the cellular level
• Mitochondrial function: NAD+ optimizes mitochondrial efficiency, the powerhouses of your cells
• Circadian rhythm regulation: NAD+ supports healthy sleep-wake cycles and metabolic timing
• Neurological support: NAD+ enhances brain energy production and neuroprotection

By directly infusing NAD+, we bypass age-related decline and restore your cells' capacity for energy production and self-repair.

Key Benefits of NAD+ Therapy

• Increased cellular energy: Feel more vitality and stamina throughout your day
• Enhanced mental clarity: Improved brain fog, focus, and cognitive function
• Accelerated recovery: Faster healing from workouts, illness, and daily stress
• Better sleep quality: NAD+ supports healthy sleep architecture and deeper rest
• Anti-aging at the cellular level: Support DNA repair and longevity pathways that slow aging
• Improved mood: Many patients report elevated mood and emotional resilience
• Enhanced athletic performance: Better endurance, faster muscle recovery, and improved training adaptation
• Metabolic optimization: Improved metabolism and body composition support

Who Is a Good Candidate for NAD+ Therapy?

NAD+ is ideal for:

• Individuals over 35 seeking to counteract age-related NAD+ decline
• Professionals with high cognitive demands (entrepreneurs, creatives, executives)
• Athletes pursuing optimal performance and recovery
• Anyone experiencing fatigue, brain fog, or decreased mental sharpness
• Individuals interested in longevity and anti-aging strategies
• Those recovering from illness or chronic stress
• Anyone seeking to optimize cellular health and energy

NAD+ therapy is safe for most people and becomes increasingly valuable as we age, since NAD+ naturally declines starting in our 30s.

What to Expect During Your NAD+ Infusion

Your NAD+ therapy session at Luxe Forté includes:

• Check-in and vitals (5-10 minutes): Our wellness specialist will assess your current energy levels and wellness goals
• IV placement (5 minutes): A small IV catheter is placed-typically painless and quick
• NAD+ infusion (45-60 minutes): You'll rest comfortably while pharmaceutical-grade NAD+ infuses directly into your bloodstream. Many patients relax, read, or work during their infusion
• Post-infusion hydration (5 minutes): We'll provide hydration support to maximize absorption and circulation

The entire experience typically takes 60-90 minutes, and most patients report feeling noticeably more energized within hours.

How to Prepare for Your NAD+ Infusion

• Eat a balanced meal 1-2 hours before your appointment
• Drink plenty of water throughout the day (hydration optimizes infusion absorption)
• Avoid alcohol for 24 hours before and after treatment
• Wear loose, comfortable clothing for easy IV access
• Plan to rest after your infusion if possible-many patients experience deep relaxation
• Disclose any medications, supplements, or recent health changes

Aftercare & Recovery

NAD+ infusions have no downtime:

• Immediate effects: Many patients feel more energized within 2-6 hours of infusion
• Enhanced hydration: Continue drinking water to support circulation and cellular distribution of NAD+
• Optimal rest: That evening, honor your body's need for sleep-NAD+ often supports deeper rest
• Light activity: Gentle movement like walking enhances benefits without taxing your system
• Avoid alcohol: For 24 hours post-infusion, allow your body to fully process and utilize the NAD+

Results: What to Expect & Timeline

Hours 1-6: Many patients report increased energy and mental clarity within hours of infusion.

24-48 hours: Deeper energy benefits and often notably improved sleep quality.

Day 3-7: Cumulative benefits become apparent. Sustained energy, improved focus, and better recovery from daily stress.

Week 2-3: Enhanced cognitive function, improved athletic recovery, and noticeable mood elevation.

Week 4+: Long-term benefits of NAD+ accumulate. Many patients report sustained energy, resilience, and anti-aging benefits at the cellular level.

Benefits are often immediate after infusion and deepen with consistent treatment.

How Many Infusions Are Recommended?

• Introductory protocol: 4-6 infusions over 2-3 weeks provides noticeable baseline benefits
• Sustained optimization: Monthly infusions maintain and deepen NAD+-dependent benefits
• Enhanced results: Some patients do 2-3 infusions monthly for comprehensive anti-aging and performance optimization
• Athletic focus: Athletes often benefit from bi-weekly infusions during heavy training
• Personalized frequency: We recommend a schedule based on your goals, age, and desired outcomes

Potential Side Effects & Risks

NAD+ therapy is exceptionally safe with minimal side effects:

• Mild flushing: Some patients experience slight facial flushing or warmth during infusion (usually brief and mild)
• Nausea: Uncommon; can usually be managed by slowing infusion rate
• Arm discomfort: Occasional mild discomfort at IV site (typically resolves quickly)
• Fatigue: Some patients feel deeply relaxed or sleepy after infusion (actually beneficial-honor the rest)

Serious side effects are exceptionally rare when NAD+ is administered by trained professionals.
