SLOW DOWN AGING WITH NAD+
The task of anti-aging medicine is to understand and analyze the biological causes of cellular aging to intervene from a preventive and personalized perspective with a transversal approach that includes healthy lifestyles, a balanced diet, physical activity and a careful supplementation of useful nutrients. One of the most important issues to consider in anti-aging medicine are the age-related deficiencies that should be compensated for with a targeted and effective supplementation. Among the substances that degrade over the years, the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide - abbreviated as NAD+ in its oxidized form - plays a fundamental role in the mechanics of many organic functions.

What is NAD+
The NAD+ molecule is a coenzyme present in the cells of the organism which performs a fundamental function as it takes part in metabolic processes, contributing to the transformation of nutrients into energy and to oxidation-reduction reactions. As a coenzyme, it collaborates in enzymatic activity by optimizing the work of proteins that participate in DNA repair and slowing down cellular aging.
The amount of NAD+ tends to decrease with age as increases the activity of the enzymes that consume it. This decline can trigger metabolic dysfunction and accelerate aging due to the lower amount of energy available and the increase in free radicals. NAD+ supplementation has demonstrated great effectiveness in slowing down or reversing the imbalances linked to the deficiency of the molecule.
The benefits of NAD+ supplementation
NAD+ supplementation is one of the cornerstones of anti-aging medicine as this coenzyme plays a key role in slowing down cellular aging. In fact, the molecule works to benefit cognitive and sporting performance, allowing you to increase energy and stabilize mood. Restoring sufficient NAD+ allows you to fight free radicals and is recommended in case of tiredness, both physical and mental, and to increase immune defenses. Furthermore, the role of NAD+ in energy management also makes it effective in weight control. It is important to remember how NAD+ supplementation is also effective as a form of prevention, considering how much it works in many biochemical processes.
Times and ways to supplement NAD+
To counteract the physiological decline in available NAD+, intravenous supplementation can restore sufficient levels of the molecule, ensuring its total absorption. The drip, composed only of NAD+, guarantees, in fact, full bioavailability of the substance as it enters directly into the systemic circulation, bypassing the digestive process and intestinal dispersion. After the first doctor’s visit, it will be possible to establish a therapeutic protocol tailored to the patient’s needs with sessions of variable duration spread over several weeks. The NAD+ drip can be repeated after a small period of withdrawal.
NAD+-based therapy has no contraindications but must be followed by an expert doctor.
Costs of NAD+-based therapy
Intravenous injections based on NAD+ are a treatment plan made up of a number of sessions established by the doctor during the preliminary session, of variable duration based on the therapy indications. Generally speaking, the single cost per session of NAD+ injection therapy is around 300 euros.

Neural therapy for headaches and migraines: an innovative approach
Neural therapy is a medical treatment that, through the injection of highly diluted anesthetic substances such as procaine or lidocaine, modulates the activity of the autonomic nervous system to alleviate pain conditions. The goal is to restore the functional balance of the body, offering pain relief even in case of chronic and disabling conditions. Among the disorders that can be treated with neural therapy are chronic and recurrent forms of headaches and migraines.
