What NAD+ Does in Your Cells
NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a coenzyme found in every living cell. It helps your mitochondria (the energy factories inside your cells) make ATP, which is the fuel your body runs on. NAD+ also helps repair damaged DNA and supports the proteins linked to longevity.
Your NAD+ levels drop by about half between your 20s and your 50s. Lower NAD+ is one of the molecular changes researchers link to slower energy, slower recovery, and the general feeling of aging.
Shot vs. NAD+ IV
Our NAD+ IV drips run 60 to 90 minutes and deliver 250 mg, 500 mg, or 1,000 mg. The IV gives a higher peak in your bloodstream. The Biohack Shot delivers up to 250 mg in a single intramuscular or subcutaneous injection, which takes a few minutes total. Clients pick the shot when they want NAD+ without committing to a long IV session.

How the Shot Feels
NAD+ injections can feel different from other shots. Some clients notice mild flushing, brief chest tightness, or a tingling sensation as the NAD+ moves into circulation. These feelings pass within a few minutes. Going slow and using subcutaneous delivery can help keep things comfortable. Your RN will pick the right method based on your dose and your preferences.
When You Might Feel the Lift
Some clients feel sharper and more alert within a few hours. Others notice steadier energy over the next day or two. NAD+ works on cellular processes that build up over time, so regular sessions tend to deliver more noticeable changes than a single shot.
How Often to Book NAD+
For real cellular benefits, most NAD+ protocols suggest a starting series of shots or IVs spaced one to two weeks apart over the first month or two, then upkeep every two to four weeks. Your RN can help build a plan that fits your goals.
Safety Screening
NAD+ is not for everyone. Our medical team screens for pregnancy, breastfeeding, and active cancer treatment before approving. People on certain medications or with specific conditions may need closer review. Always disclose your full medical history on intake.
Pairs Well With
For longevity focus, stack the Biohack NAD+ Shot with the Glow Glutathione Shot. For full executive recovery, add the Espresso B12 Shot. For the deeper, longer route, our Brain Fog & Focus NAD+ IV ($449) or Wall Street IV ($649) carry NAD+ in higher doses with full fluids.

Some clients feel sharper within hours. Cellular benefits build over weeks of consistent use.
Can I do this if I am pregnant?+
No. NAD+ is not given during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
Is NAD+ proven for anti aging?+
Research is active and promising, especially for cellular energy and DNA repair. We share what the evidence supports without overpromising.
