What is NAD+?
NAD+, or nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, is a helper molecule or coenzyme produced inside your body. NAD+ helps fortify your cells’ defense systems and regulates your body’s internal clock. Your body also uses NAD+ to create energy and restore damaged cells.
As you get older, your body naturally produces less NAD+. Clinical studies suggest a drop in NAD+ levels increases your risk of chronic illnesses including diabetes, high blood pressure, and Alzheimer’s disease. Interestingly, studies also suggest that increasing levels of NAD+ may help counter signs of aging and lower your risk of certain health problems.
What is NAD+ IV therapy?
NAD+ IV therapy is a holistic, alternative treatment that introduces NAD+ directly into your bloodstream. NAD+ IV therapy bypasses your digestive system, providing a faster and more effective outcome than traditional oral treatments like vitamins and supplements.
In addition, NAD+ IV therapy optimizes NAD+ levels throughout your body, boosting cell production and your energy levels.
What conditions can NAD+ IV therapy treat?
NAD+ IV therapy is incredibly versatile. Dr. Gaskill regularly prescribes NAD+ IV therapy to treat:
- Substance abuse (Drugs and Alcohol)
- Parkinson’s disease
- Alzheimer’s disease
- Multiple sclerosis
- Fibromyalgia
- Arthritis
- Lupus
- Brain fog
- Peripheral neuropathy
- Sjorgen’s syndrome
- Lou Gherig’s disease (ALS)
- Chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE)
- Post-concussion syndrome
NAD+ IV therapy can also relieve symptoms associated with certain mental health problems including anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Am I a good candidate for NAD+ IV therapy?
The only way to determine if you’re a good candidate for NAD+ IV therapy is to schedule an appointment with Dr. Gaskill. Following a physical exam, review of your medical history, and discussion of your symptoms, Dr. Gaskill can formulate a treatment plan that aligns with your individual needs.
How many NAD+ IV therapy appointments will I need?
The number of NAD+ IV therapy appointments you’ll need depends on the severity of your symptoms and your goals for treatment. For example, if you’re suffering from fatigue, one treatment session may be enough to help you feel better. For chronic conditions like arthritis or diabetes, multiple treatments may be necessary.
NAD+ IV therapy provides a safe, effective, and all-natural way to counter the natural aging process. If you’re interested in learning more, call or schedule an appointment online at Leslie S. Gaskill, M.D., today.
