IV infusion of NAD+ are gaining popularity among athletes due to the observed mitochondria ATP production that follows, as well as improvements in endurance, strength, stamina and athletic performance.
Vitamin and therapeutic IV treatments are gaining popularity with athletes throughout the country.
Although still controversial, there are reasons to believe that the IV route of nutrient administration offers some distinct advantages over diet and even oral vitamin and nutrient supplementation. Since the bloodstream carries your nutrients to your cells, there is no more direct or complete way to deliver these nutrients than by direct IV infusion.
NAD+ Improves Mitochondrial Energy Production, Boosting Energy and Athletic Performance
With the opportunity for many different vitamins and nutrients to be used in this setting. One nutrient that we offer at the IV nutrient center at Forum Health Austin in Austin, Texas, is Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide-usually shortened to NAD+.
NAD+ is rapidly becoming a favorite especially for individuals looking to improve mitochondrial energy production and all the many benefits associated with lots of healthy and highly functional mitochondria pumping out lots of your primary energy molecule-ATP.
NAD+ has been given IV safely for many years. In high dosages, it has been shown to eliminate cravings and reverse addiction to opiates, alcohol, and other substances. Whereas in the past, IV NAD+ was given over several hours, recent trials have demonstrated that rapid IV NAD+ infusions are safe and effective.
Combining higher doses of NAD+, we use individual infusions of 500 mg NAD+ per session, with a fast infusion of a multivitamin IV containing a total of 23 different vital nutrients including: B vitamins, vitamin C, amino acids and vital minerals may enhance the NAD+ transportation into the mitochondria and delivers many vitamins and minerals necessary for healthy cellular and mitochondrial function.
Receiving larger doses of NAD+ in this way improves the NAD+/NADH ratio and boosts mitochondrial oxygen utilization significantly.
Individuals receiving this combination of NAD+ and fast IV MultiVitamins have reported:
- Increased Energy
- Increased Strength
- Increased Mental Clarity
- Increased Endurance
- Increased Potency
- Improved Mood
Studies of NAD+ have shown that NAD+ protects DNA and has anti-aging effects including increased numbers of circulating stem cells.
A series of IV infusions of NAD+ and fast IV MultiVitamins may provide advantages over a single infusion, especially initially. After an initial series, maintenance treatments every several weeks may help to maintain the beneficial effects.
