NAD+ Therapy in Los Gatos

Dr Renee Young Injecting pain medication

When your energy crashes by midday, it’s tempting to reach for another cup of coffee. But sometimes caffeine or even a full night’s sleep doesn’t help you recharge.

This can be a sign that your body is running low on NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide).

NAD+ is a natural coenzyme found in every cell that fuels your body by:

  • Converting food into energy
  • Supporting brain and cognitive function
  • Repairing damaged DNA
  • Protecting cells from stress and aging

But NAD+ levels drop by up to 50% as you age, and stress, illness, or poor lifestyle habits can further speed up this decline.

Low NAD+ may affect your concentration, drain your energy, and make the signs of aging appear sooner.

At Young Naturopathic Center of Wellness, we help restore your NAD+ levels through IV therapy or Intramuscular injections, delivering NAD+ directly into your bloodstream for faster absorption and more noticeable results. Many patients feel dismissed when they bring up these symptoms. Dr. Renee Young sees it differently:

Book your NAD+ IV session now and start feeling energized.

 

 

Why IV & IM NAD+ Therapy Works Better

Oral or sublingual supplements provide limited absorption. But IV NAD+ delivers nutrients directly to your bloodstream, so you feel the benefits faster. Intramuscular NAD+ also gets absorbed well and is released slowly into the bloodstream.

Here’s how IV NAD+ compares to other delivery methods:

Feature IV (Intravenous) IM (Intramuscular) Oral (Precursors)
Delivery Delivered directly into the bloodstream Injected into a muscle, where it is absorbed into the bloodstream Ingested and absorbed through the gastrointestinal (GI) tract
Bioavailability Nearly 100% bioavailability High bioavailability, though slightly less direct than IV Significantly lower due to breakdown during digestion
Effectiveness Most effective for acutely boosting NAD+ levels; effects are rapid but may be short-lived More effective than oral supplements for raising NAD+ levels Less effective for a rapid, significant boost; requires consistent, long-term use
Common Form Uses the full NAD+ molecule Uses the full NAD+ molecule Relies on NAD+ precursors like NMN or NR for better absorption

 

“I see patients every day who’ve been told their symptoms are ‘just part of aging’ or ‘all in their head.’ The truth is, when your cellular energy is depleted, every system in your body struggles. NAD+ therapy gives us a way to restore that energy at the source.”
Dr. Renee Young

IM NAD+ Injections

For patients who prefer a quicker option, intramuscular (IM) NAD+ injections offer a fast and convenient way to support cellular health and energy. Instead of an IV drip, the treatment is delivered as a single injection, typically taking just a few minutes.

Pre-treatment Tests at YNC

Before starting your NAD+ therapy, we look beyond your symptoms to understand what’s really affecting your energy and focus.

As part of your intake, you may undergo tests including:

  • Nutrient and mitochondrial function testing: Reveals how your cells produce energy and detect nutrient gaps.
  • Inflammatory markers: Identify if chronic inflammation is affecting your energy, focus, or recovery.
  • Food sensitivity testing: Detects food triggers that could be causing low energy or digestive issues.
  • Toxin and mold exposure testing: Screens for environmental factors that could be holding you back. (We only include this test if it’s needed.)

These tests help us design a NAD+ protocol customized to your body and goals, helping you regain strength and thrive every day.

Dr. Young explains why this step is so important:

“I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all medicine. When someone comes to me exhausted, I need to understand WHY. Chronic stress? Nutrient deficiencies? Hidden inflammation? The ‘why’ determines your entire treatment plan and turns temporary relief into lasting transformation.”
