Does NAD+ IV Therapy Really Work?
If you’ve come looking for answers about NAD+ IV therapy and whether it really works, this is the blog for you. We’re going to take a look at what NAD+ IV therapy is and talk about its potential benefits to determine if the treatment really works. So if you’ve come here looking for that answer, continue reading!
Let us begin by discussing what NAD IV therapy actually is.
NAD IV therapy is a treatment that involves the reception of the peptide NAD through the use of an IV.
Why is an IV used? Because this has been found to be the most direct way for a patient to receive any potential benefits from the treatment they are receiving. This doesn’t go just for NAD+, but many treatments are delivered intravenously. When you administer something in this manner it allows the medication or what have you to bypass the digestive system, where many of the benefits may get lost.
So let’s just back to something we mentioned a couple of paragraphs ago: peptides. Peptides occur naturally within a patient’s body and have a multitude of vital health benefits. They also perform important jobs within the body.
NAD is a peptide, itself. As such, it has many vital health benefits and it performs a number of tasks in the body. As you might imagine, such an important peptide would be useful and boosting that peptide via peptide therapy might provide all sorts of important benefits to any patient who is interested in receiving it.
So what does NAD do? Well, here’s just a small list of the potential health benefits NAD has been observed in the past as having achieved: a sharpening of the patient’s cardiovascular health, an ability to aid in improving eyesight, the ability to decrease internal pains and speed up injury recovery time, and the ability to boost a patient’s energy. It is able to potentially do this multitude of things because NAD actually is a signal sender. It signals the other enzymes in the patient’s body and activates them so that they can perform their natural processes. It jump starts the machine, so to speak.
An interesting note about NAD that some researchers have noticed is that there may potentially be a connection between the aging process and the levels of NAD in a patient’s body decreasing. As such, the potential is there for NAD boosts like those in NAD IV therapy to help in slowing down the aging process.
NAD+ IV therapy is also a mostly quick and simple procedure. It takes only about an hour, doesn’t require the patient to do much but relax and take in the NAD through an IV, and then when it’s over, the patient can return to their normal day as there is no downtime for the treatment.
If you’re interested in learning more or trying NAD for yourself, it can be had at the Los Angeles-based RWA Center in Beverly Hills. Call us at (310) 407-0542 and book an appointment and give it a shot!

A NAD+ IV infusion typically takes between 2 to 4 hours to complete. The duration can vary depending on the dosage and the individual’s tolerance to the infusion rate. Some people may prefer a slower infusion to minimize potential side effects like nausea or discomfort, which can extend the session time. It’s usually administered in a medical or wellness clinic under professional supervision.
Experiences during a NAD+ IV infusion can vary from person to person. Some people report feeling a warming sensation or slight pressure at the infusion site. Others may experience mild discomfort, like nausea, headaches, or a sense of tightness in the chest, especially if the infusion rate is too fast. The effects can differ based on individual sensitivity and the rate of the infusion.
Each peptide is different, with dosages that can vary from person to person. In general, a vial of any peptide can last about 3-4 weeks. During the consultation, our provider will address dosing and how long the specific peptide will last for you.
No, our providers will address all your questions and concerns with you before your first appointment. Please eat and drink as normal.
In Major Autohemotherapy (MAH) with ozone therapy, a “pass” refers to the process of drawing a certain amount of blood from the patient, infusing it with a precise concentration of ozone gas, and then reinfusing the ozonated blood back into the patient’s body. Each pass represents one complete cycle of this process. In the context of multi-pass ozone therapy, multiple passes (or cycles) are performed during a single session to increase the therapeutic effects. For example, in a 10-pass ozone therapy, the process of drawing blood, ozonating it, and reinfusing it is repeated ten times. This technique is often used to enhance the oxygenation of blood, boost the immune system, and support overall healing. The number of passes used can vary based on the specific treatment goals and the patient’s condition.
The number of ozone passes you can do during a Major Autohemotherapy (MAH) session typically depends on your health status, treatment goals, and the protocol our provider will recommend during your initial visit. In your first visit, you can have 1, 2 or 3 passes of ozone therapy.
To receive more than 3 passes, our provider will have the G6PD test performed by a blood test. The results will indicate whether your G6PD enzyme activity is within the normal range, or if you have a deficiency.
The decision on the number of passes should be made in consultation with your healthcare provider, who will consider your individual needs and how your body responds to the therapy. Some patients may gradually increase the number of passes over time as their tolerance improves.
The amount of ozone administered in each pass during ozone therapy can vary depending on the specific treatment protocol and the patient’s needs. Generally, approximately 14,000μg of ozone is administered in each pass.
Each pass of ozone can take approximately 7-10 minutes, this varies from person to person.
A G6PD test measures the activity of the enzyme glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) in your blood. This enzyme is crucial for the proper functioning of red blood cells, helping them to protect against oxidative damage. People with G6PD deficiency have lower levels of this enzyme, which can lead to the destruction of red blood cells (hemolysis) when they are exposed to certain triggers, such as certain foods, medications, or infections.The G6PD test is particularly important before undergoing treatments like ozone therapy or high-dose vitamin C therapy. These treatments can increase oxidative stress, which may be harmful to individuals with G6PD deficiency, potentially leading to hemolytic anemia.
