Not afraid of needles? Reasons to consider NAD IV therapy

If there were a secret weapon for boosting energy, slowing ageing, and sharpening brain function, would you try it? That’s exactly why NAD IV therapy is creating a buzz in the wellness world.

Experts explain that by delivering NAD directly into your bloodstream, IV therapy promises to recharge your body at a cellular level, leaving you feeling more energized, focused, and ready to take on the world. Sounds like a glow-up from the inside out.

IV Boost formally defines Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD+) as a vital coenzyme in all living cells, essential for energy transfer and preventing ageing. It is stated that premature decline in NAD+ levels can be caused by lifestyle, diet, alcohol, stress, and toxins.

The above source further explains that NAD+ IV therapy combats ageing symptoms by reducing fine lines, and wrinkles, and boosting metabolism, mental clarity, and energy. This reduction is said to be a major factor in the ageing process, leading to outward signs like wrinkles and joint pain.

Effect Doctors states, “Research has found that the main role of NAD+ within the body is to transfer electrons from one molecule to another. This means it’s essential for cell rejuvenation, controlling our metabolism and regulating our sleep patterns.”

NAD IV therapy is generally safe and well-tolerated, but it may cause side effects such as flushing, nausea, gastrointestinal disturbances, headaches, and dizziness, according to AZ IV Medics.  The publication explains that flushing causes the skin to turn red and feel warm, while nausea and gastrointestinal issues may occur.

“Headaches are a side effect of NAD IV therapy. They are usually mild and temporary, disappearing shortly after the infusion. Proper hydration before and during the treatment helps reduce the likelihood of experiencing headaches.”

Dizziness or faintness is said to be rare but usually mild and goes away quickly.
