Are you feeling drained, foggy, or just not quite like yourself lately? As we age, our bodies naturally produce less NAD+—a vital coenzyme responsible for energy production, cellular repair, and overall vitality. At Triangle Wellness & Anti-Aging, we offer a targeted, 3-phase NAD+ therapy program designed to help restore optimal levels and support your long-term wellness goals. We sat down with Nurse Jill to answer the most common questions about NAD+ therapy—what it is, who it’s for, and how it could help you feel sharper, stronger, and more energized. Let’s dive in.
Q1: Hi Jill! To start, can you tell us what NAD+ is and why it’s important to our health?
A: NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a coenzyme found in every cell of the body. It plays a crucial role in energy production, DNA repair, and cellular regeneration. As we age, our natural levels of NAD+ decline, which can impact how we feel, our cognitive clarity, energy levels, and overall wellness.
Q2: What are some of the most common reasons people choose to try NAD+ therapy?
A: Many patients come in because they’re feeling run down, experiencing brain fog, or just want to optimize their aging process. NAD+ therapy can support improved energy, sharper focus, better mood, enhanced metabolism, and even athletic recovery. It’s also popular among patients focused on longevity and proactive health.
Q3: Can you walk us through Triangle Wellness’s recommended 3-phase NAD+ program?
A: Absolutely. Our 3-phase protocol is designed to help your body build up and maintain therapeutic NAD+ levels.
- Phase 1: Loading Phase – This includes 3 NAD+ infusions within 1 week. This jumpstarts your NAD+ levels and sets the foundation for long-term benefits.
- Phase 2: Stabilization Phase – We space the treatments out a bit more, typically 1 infusion every week for 4 weeks.
- Phase 3: Maintenance Phase – Once your baseline is established, we recommend monthly NAD+ infusions or IM injections to maintain those optimized levels and keep your energy, focus, and cellular health in check.
Q4: What does an NAD+ infusion feel like? Are there any side effects?
A: Most patients tolerate NAD+ infusions well, though some may feel some warmness in the chest, and we may need to slow down the drip. We carefully monitor the infusion rate and adjust it based on your comfort. Many people report feeling energized or refreshed afterward, though some feel more of a gradual improvement over time.
Q5: How long does each infusion take?
A: Infusions typically take anywhere from 90 minutes to 2.5 hours. We create a relaxing environment so patients can read, rest, or catch up on emails while receiving their treatment.
Q6: Are there any requirements for a NAD+ therapy candidate ?
A: We require a consultation that is applied to the initial infusion. During that discussion the nurse will go over the necessary blood work to start NAD + program. If you have blood work within 3 months from your Primary Doctor that can be uploaded into our system, and we can get started immediately. If not, we can draw the necessary labs during the consultation and get started within 24 hours
Q7: How soon do patients typically start noticing results?
A: Some feel a noticeable boost in energy and clarity after the first or second infusion, while others may experience a more gradual shift over the full course of the program. Consistency is key, which is why our 3-phase approach is so important.
Q8: Can you combine NAD+ therapy with other treatments at Triangle Wellness?
A: Yes! NAD+ works beautifully alongside many of our other wellness offerings—like vitamin injections, peptide therapy, IV hydration, and even our body contouring and anti-aging treatments. It’s all part of a holistic approach to helping our patients feel and look their best.
Q9: What would you say to someone who’s curious but hesitant to start NAD+ therapy?
A: I’d say come in for a consultation! We’ll talk about your symptoms, your goals, and whether NAD+ therapy makes sense for your needs.
