NAD+ and Longevity: What You Need to Know About the Wellness

Writer： admin Time：2025-07-04 12:35 Browse：℃

From wellness influencers to elite athletes and A-list celebrities, everyone is talking about NAD+, which promises to revolutionize how we age. At +advitam®, we take a science-backed, personalized approach to wellness, including NAD+ therapy, to help you achieve optimal health and longevity. But is NAD+ truly the secret to youth, vitality, and cellular energy, or just another fleeting trend? 

What Is NAD+?

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is a coenzyme—a type of molecule that works alongside enzymes to facilitate essential biological processes in the body. Think of coenzymes as helpers or catalysts that enable enzymes to perform their functions more effectively. In the case of NAD+, it plays a critical role in powering cellular energy production and supporting cell repair mechanisms.

NAD+ has two primary responsibilities:

1. Energy Creation: It assists enzymes in converting nutrients into ATP, the molecule that serves as the energy currency of your cells.

2. Cellular Defense and Repair: NAD+ partners with enzymes to repair damaged cells, combat inflammation, and sustain tissue vitality.

Unfortunately, NAD+ levels naturally decline as we age, dropping by as much as 50% between the ages of 40 and 60. This reduction limits your cells' ability to produce energy, repair damage, and support vital proteins like sirtuins, which are key in slowing aging.

How Does NAD+ Support Longevity?

Studies such as those reviewed by CellR4 show that replenishing NAD+ levels can restore your cells’ ability to produce energy and repair damage, reversing some effects of aging. The potential benefits include:

· Boosted energy levels

· Enhanced mental clarity and cognitive function

· Improved skin elasticity and reduced wrinkles

· Faster recovery from physical stress or injury

· Better metabolic health and reduced inflammation

NAD+ Therapy: What Are Your Options?

There are several ways to boost NAD+ levels, and +advitam® offers the most effective and scientifically backed options:

NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) is a coenzyme essential for cellular energy production, DNA repair, and overall metabolic function. It is available in several delivery forms, each with unique benefits:

1. IV NAD+

· Benefits: Provides 100% bioavailability, delivering NAD+ directly into the bloodstream for immediate absorption.

· Use: Best for rapid replenishment of NAD+ levels, supporting energy production, cognitive function, and detoxification.

· Common Applications: Anti-aging, neuroprotection, addiction recovery, and chronic fatigue.

2. Subcutaneous (SubQ) NAD+

· Benefits: Slower, sustained release compared to IV, offering longer-lasting effects with convenient at-home administration.

· Use: Supports ongoing cellular health, mitochondrial function, and anti-aging benefits with gradual absorption.

· Common Applications: Daily or weekly supplementation for longevity, metabolic support, and recovery.

3. Nasal Spray NAD+

· Benefits: Quick absorption through the nasal mucosa, bypassing digestion and allowing for a direct effect on the brain.

· Use: Ideal for cognitive enhancement, neuroprotection, and mood stabilization.

· Common Applications: Brain fog, focus, memory support, and neurodegenerative conditions.

Each form of NAD+ administration provides unique advantages depending on individual needs, whether for acute treatment (IV), sustained benefits (SubQ), or neurological support (nasal spray)
