NAD+ at Ketamine Wellness Centers

NAD+ therapy is an important new addition to our services at Ketamine Wellness Centers. This innovative treatment is offered at all KWC locations.

What is NAD+?

NAD+ is one of the most important molecules in our bodies. It gives us energy, creates new cells, builds new pathways in the brain, and is a driving force behind our health. As we get older, however, we produce less and less of it—and our bodies notice.

Why KWC?

Delivery methods are vital to the effectiveness of NAD+, so treatment at KWC delivers the compound directly into your bloodstream via infusion. The result is complete absorption and optimal efficacy. 

What makes NAD+ therapy at Ketamine Wellness Centers different? Our clinically controlled setting, expertise, and experience. As with all therapies offered at KWC, our program undergoes frequent quality assurance reviews and complies with the highest standards of care and all recommended guidelines.

Potential Benefits of NAD+

Brain

Improving Brain Function

NAD+ has been studied as a potential treatment for brain diseases including Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. Since NAD+ stimulates the brain and promotes cell health, it is believed that it may improve brain function and reduce symptoms of declining health.

Research also suggests that NAD+ can reduce anxiety, improve memory, and boost learning.

DNA

Repairing DNA

One theory on why we age is that damage to DNA causes our bodies to become less efficient over time.

In studies on patients suffering from declining brain health, NAD+ successfully repaired damage to DNA in brain cells. These repairs are not only associated with improved brain function, but could also lead to increased lifespan, slower aging, and overall physical health.

Energy

Increasing Energy

In some cases, tiredness and fatigue are related to low levels of NAD+.

It is believed that NAD+ may be an effective therapy for those who suffer from low energy. In studies on Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, this treatment has been found to dramatically reduce fatigue and boost energy.

Staying Sober​

NAD+ has also been used to treat long-lasting symptoms of addiction and substance abuse, including depression, cravings, and stress. It continues to attract interest as a possible treatment for these symptoms of Post-Acute Withdrawal Syndrome (PAWS).

Cells

Improving Cell Communication

NAD+ is crucial to helping cells communicate with each other. This takes many different forms: NAD+ is responsible for sending signals to activate the metabolism, transporting energy to different cells, and building new pathways in the brain.

NAD+ is especially important for cells in the brain: it promotes forming new habits, learning new skills, and preventing brain conditions like Alzheimer's.

Boosting Immunity

When we run low on NAD+, the immune system is affected. This makes us more vulnerable to frequent illnesses, infections, and fatigue.

NAD+ appears to support immune health by reducing inflammation. Many health conditions (including asthma, arthritis, and even stress) can cause long-term inflammation, potentially leading to health complications including tumor growth, heart disease, and organ damage.

This treatment won't cure immune diseases, but it may control inflammation and reduce the likelihood of developing other serious illnesses.

What are the side effects of NAD+?

This treatment is viewed as a safe and effective therapy. When this treatment is dosed and monitored by a medical professional in a clinically controlled setting, the risk to the patient is extremely low.
