🔬 What is NAD+?

NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) is a coenzyme found in every cell. It plays a key role in:

Cellular energy production (ATP)

Mitochondrial function

DNA repair & anti-aging pathways

Brain function & focus

Levels decline with age, stress, poor sleep, and intense training.

💪 Benefits (What people use it for)

Increased energy & reduced fatigue

Improved mental clarity & focus

Faster recovery (training or illness)

Anti-aging / longevity support

May assist metabolism & fat loss indirectly

💉 Typical Protocol (SubQ Pen Use)

Beginner / General Wellness:

100–200 mg

2–3x per week

Performance / Recovery Focus:

200–300 mg

3–5x per week

Aggressive / “Loading” Phase (Short Term):

300–500 mg

Daily for 5–10 days

Then drop to maintenance dose

📅 Example 4-Week Protocol

Week 1–2 (Loading):

200–300 mg daily

Week 3–4 (Maintenance):

200 mg, 3x per week

⏱️ Timing

Best taken morning or pre-workout (boosts energy)

Avoid late evening (can interfere with sleep)

⚠️ Side Effects

Flushing / warmth feeling

Nausea (usually dose-related)

Headache

Mild injection site irritation

👉 If you feel “cold/shivery” or unwell → dose is usually too high or too fast.

⚠️ Important Notes

Stay well hydrated

Start low and increase gradually

Works well stacked with:

BPC-157 (recovery)

CJC-1295 + Ipamorelin (GH support)

L-Carnitine (fat metabolism)

🧠 Realistic Expectation

NAD+ is not a miracle fat burner or steroid — it’s more of a cellular support / optimization compound. Effects are often:

Subtle but noticeable over time

Stronger in people who are fatigued, stressed, or depleted
