NAD+
The NAD+ treatment, aims to improve energy production, cell regeneration and overall health by directly increasing cellular NAD+ levels.
What is NAD+?
NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is an essential molecule that is found in every cell in the body and is involved in numerous metabolic pathways. It plays a central role as a coenzyme in cellular respiration and the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which serves as an energy carrier. NAD+ is also important for DNA repair, gene regulation, cell communication and the maintenance of immune function. The natural decline of NAD+ in the body, accelerated by aging and unhealthy lifestyle habits, can lead to various chronic diseases and premature aging.
Advantages of an NAD+ infusion:
The NAD+ infusion supports your body in many ways:
- Energy: Can support the mitochondria in the efficient conversion of food into energy.
- Mental clarity: Can improve brain function and contribute to increased cognitive performance.
- Cell health: Can promote the repair of damaged DNA and support the health of your cells, which is particularly important after injury or illness.
- Anti-ageing effects: Can help slow down the ageing process and have a preventative effect against degenerative diseases.
Areas of application of the NAD+ infusion:
The NAD+ infusion is versatile and can help with a range of health problems:
- Stress and exhaustion: Ideal for people who suffer from stress, burn-out and fatigue.
- Neurodegenerative diseases: Supports the treatment and prevention of neurodegenerative diseases.
- Chronic diseases: Can have a supportive effect in chronic diseases.
How does the treatment work?
Treatment with NAD+ is usually administered via infusions, which aim to increase NAD+ levels in the body. Through this direct administration, NAD+ is absorbed more efficiently and can work faster than via oral supplements. NAD+ infusions are known to increase energy production in cells, promote cell repair and reduce inflammation. This can be particularly beneficial in the treatment of chronic fatigue, metabolic disorders and age-related diseases. Infusion therapies are customized based on the patient’s specific needs and health goals.
Are the costs covered by statutory health insurance? How high are the costs?
The coverage of NAD+ infusions by health insurance companies varies depending on the country and individual insurance policy. In most cases, such preventive treatments are not covered by statutory health insurance. However, it is possible that some private health insurance companies will cover at least part of the costs, especially if the treatment is medically necessary. Patients should therefore contact their health insurance company directly and, if necessary, submit a cost estimate and a doctor’s recommendation.
