Niagen
Nicotinamide Riboside (NR)
Why NR (Niagen®) Is Preferred Over NAD⁺
NAD⁺ IV therapy
Delivers NAD⁺ all at once, which floods the body
High concentrations are not physiologic
Can overstimulate and fatigue cells rather than supporting natural NAD⁺ production
Commonly associated with headaches, nausea, and discomfort
Niagen® (NR) IV therapy
Natural precursor that the body converts into NAD⁺ on its own
Supports endogenous (self-produced) NAD⁺ production instead of forcing it
Results in ~20% higher NAD⁺ levels within 3 hours
Better tolerated and more sustainable for repeat therapy
No loading dose required
Up to 75% faster infusion time compared to NAD⁺ IV therapy
Supports cellular energy, recovery, metabolic health, and longevity
Niagen® availability and protocols may change as research continues to evolve.
Niagen® may not be recommended for:
Individuals who are pregnant or breastfeeding
Those with known sensitivities to nicotinamide-based compounds
Individuals seeking immediate or intense effects similar to infusion-based therapies
Clients advised by their healthcare provider to avoid NAD⁺-related supplements
Niagen® may be a good option for:
Individuals experiencing general fatigue or low energy
Clients interested in longevity and preventative wellness
Those with high stress, demanding schedules, or burnout
Individuals looking for ongoing cellular support rather than short-term intervention
Clients who prefer a non-infusion option with minimal discomfort
Procedure Time: 10 - 90 minutes
