NAD (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) has shown promising results in treating addiction and managing withdrawal symptoms. Here are the key points:

## Benefits of NAD for Addiction Treatment

- Reduces cravings and withdrawal symptoms for various substances like alcohol, opioids, cocaine, and other drugs. A study found significant reductions in craving scores, anxiety, and depression after NAD infusions in 50 patients with substance use disorder.

- Helps detoxify the body by promoting the elimination of drugs and their metabolites. 100% of a subset of patients tested negative for illicit drugs midway through NAD infusions.

- Repairs cellular damage caused by long-term substance abuse by improving cellular energy production and DNA repair mechanisms.

- Restores proper brain function and boosts energy levels during recovery.

## How NAD Works

- NAD is a coenzyme vital for cellular metabolism and energy production.

- It plays a role in neurotransmitter regulation, including serotonin which affects mood and cravings.

- NAD activates enzymes like sirtuins and PARPs involved in DNA repair, cell survival, and longevity.

- Increasing NAD levels helps counter the effects of addiction on cellular processes and brain chemistry.

## Administration and Effectiveness

- Intravenous (IV) NAD infusions are commonly used in addiction treatment programs for rapid and effective delivery.

- Studies show IV NAD infusions over several days can significantly attenuate substance cravings and withdrawal symptoms.

- The effects of NAD therapy can last 12-20 months post-treatment, reducing relapse rates.

- NAD is considered a safe, natural, and economical approach as an adjunct to psychotherapy and other treatments for various addictions.

In summary, NAD infusion therapy has emerged as a promising complementary treatment for managing addiction and withdrawal by replenishing cellular NAD levels, reducing cravings, and promoting overall recovery and brain restoration.
