essential nutrients needed in every cell
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is a coenzyme found in every living cell in our body. NAD+ essentially powers our mitochondria. NAD+ is an essential nutrient that you need in every cell of your body to convert food to energy, boost your immunity and fight aging. NAD+ deficiency can seriously impair your health and general wellbeing. At Refine Anti Aging & Aesthetics, we strive to deliver the best NAD+ Oakland has to offer. Boosting your NAD+ can help restore your natural and healthy levels, enhancing cellular energy, physical, and mental wellbeing.
We offer the highest doses of NAD+, which show the most benefit, for the lowest prices in the Bay Area.
4 Doses:
100mg NAD ($200) - Suggested starting dose
250mg NAD ($350) - Best dose for anti-aging, longevity, and energy. Recommended treatment is weekly infusion for four weeks, then monthly.
500mg NAD ($600) - Best dose for acute and chronic illnesses and mood and cognitive enhancement function.
750mg NAD ($850)
ADD ONS:
NAD works closely with mitochondria, the “powerhouse” of the cell, to provide energy. With an increased supply of NAD, mitochondria and other energy-related bioprocesses work more efficiently, delivering more energy to cells. This heightened availability of cellular energy translates into an overall sense of more bodily energy and vitality.
The NAD+ coenzyme plays an important role in the human body’s metabolic processes. When NAD+ IV therapy is used in conjunction with a proper diet and regular exercise, it can help patients maintain a healthy weight. This can be particularly useful as patients age and metabolism naturally begins to slow down.
The brain relies on high levels of cellular energy to function well. When NAD levels are low, cellular energy levels also go down. Through NAD+ IV therapy, availability of cellular energy is enhanced, leading to better cognitive functioning outcomes such as enhanced memory, sharper and longer concentration, mental clarity and overall brain health.
Athletes, or anyone looking to improve their physical performance will benefit from NAD+ IV therapy’s ability to boost energy and cognitive function. NAD+ IV therapy helps maintain muscle health by supplying your body with ample fuel to not only fire muscles during a workout but repair them afterwards, so you can build stronger muscles and increase muscle mass.
Research has shown that people with critically low levels of NAD are at a higher risk for developing problems related to addiction, anxiety and other mental disorders. It’s believed that NAD+ works by influencing Sirtuin (SIRT) activity. Researchers have found that low levels of Serotonin, a neurotransmitter in the brain, are a contributing factor to Depression and Anxiety. A specific type of Sirtuin, SIRT1, can bolster low serotonin levels to improve mood. And, Sirtuins depend on NAD+ to carry out this function. When NAD is given as an IV infusion, it immediately reaches the brain and is effective in elevating mood and reversing feelings of depression and anxiety.
After your 30s, your natural NAD+ production drops by 50% or more, accelerating the aging process and interfering with energy metabolism. NAD+ infusions help you to maintain optimal cellular health and function as you age.
NAD+ IV therapy is not a cure for addiction. However, it is a powerful tool that can aid in the recovery process by reducing withdrawal symptoms. By making the withdrawal period more tolerable, this therapy helps patients transition into sobriety. In conjunction with counseling or psychotherapy, NAD+ IV therapy has been used to help patients detoxify from alcohol, opioid, chemical, and prescription drug dependencies.
Sirtuins are a family of protein molecules that have been found to play a crucial role in the body’s inflammatory response and antioxidant expression. Basically, certain sirtuins can reduce inflammation, which in turn, alleviates pain. Sirtuins require the NAD+ coenzyme in order to function properly, so NAD IV therapy fuels this process of pain reduction.
Patients with degenerative movement disorders like Parkinson’s Disease, Multiple Sclerosis, and others are seeing positive improvements with NAD+ therapy. Movement disorders are caused by neurological problems that create a disconnect between the body and the brain. NAD+ helps restore cellular function in the muscles, brain and nervous system, to foster improved movement and slow disease progression.
Depending on what we are addressing, you can get IV NAD+ anywhere from 2-3 times per week to once every 2 weeks. IV NAD+ is best as a multi week treatment plan. We will determine the right treatment plan based on your goal.
The drip takes anywhere from 2-3 hours for most of our Oakland NAD+ IV Therapy patients. This is because it has to be infused very slowly.
Because NAD+ is a naturally occurring nutrient and not a drug, there are no negative side effects.
We offer 3 doses of NAD- 250mg, 500mg, and 750mg. Prices are $400, $700, and $1000 respectively. We offer discounts when multi treatments are booked.
