NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) is a vital coenzyme that supports your cells’ ability to repair and produce energy.
At PUR-FORM in Boca Raton, our NAD+ therapy is designed to combat the effects of aging, improve energy levels, and promote overall health.
Take control of your well-being with our state-of-the-art NAD+ treatments.
NAD+ stores naturally decrease in the body as we age which result in many of the common symptoms of aging (cognitive decline, slowing metabolism, heart health issues, etc.). Therefore, replenishing NAD+ stores can lead to slowing this process of aging and revitalizing our hard working organs. Many patients report feeling noticeably different for months following NAD+ treatments, as it can be an effective solution for lessening feelings of fatigue, brain fog, slowing metabolism, anxiety, and inflammation.
From enhancing athletic performance to improving mental clarity, NAD+ Therapy offers a wide range of benefits for those looking to optimize their health. Whether you’re aiming to become more productive at work, or win a Peloton race, or out rebound the younger people at your gym’s weekly basketball game, NAD+ Therapy is a powerful, reputable advantage.
Visit our Boca Raton clinic to learn how NAD+ can transform your life.
NAD+ helps keep your brain sharp by supporting memory, focus, and overall cognitive function. It protects brain cells from damage, reduces the risk of age-related decline, and promotes long-term mental clarity.
NAD+ boosts energy by helping your body convert food into fuel. It fights fatigue, improves stamina, and supports better recovery, leaving you feeling more energized and focused throughout the day.
NAD+ strengthens your cells by improving the function of mitochondria, which produce energy. Healthy mitochondria slow down aging, reduce inflammation, and support overall wellness.
If renewed energy, better sleep, and sharper focus are things you desire, keep reading.
NAD+ Therapy helps you feel younger and more vibrant by restoring the vital coenzyme your cells need for peak performance. At PUR-FORM, we make cutting-edge wellness accessible for everyone in Boca Raton, Palm Beach, and beyond.
NAD+ is a complex coenzyme but treatment is simple. While results vary, almost everyone can benefit from NAD+ infusions and for many of our patients, this has become a staple in their wellness routine.
If you’re living in or near our Boca Raton clinic, you’re only steps away from beginning a new life journey.
NAD+ is present in the mitochondria of each cell and has been shown to decline steadily over time, reaching about 50% decline by ages 40-60. The mitochondria are known as the powerhouse of the cell and make ATP or energy within the cell. Without sufficient NAD+ our mitochondria struggle to make sufficient energy, which can be very taxing to our vital organs and causes many of the symptoms of aging.
With NAD+ modulation, we are able to stimulate a group of anti-aging genes called sirtuins, which activate mitophagy and mitochondrial biogenesis, enhancing the quality of the mitochondria and creating an age reversal effect. Because of this, NAD+ stores can lead to improved performance, slow the process of aging, and revitalize our hard working organs.
NAD+ plays a key role in metabolism and DNA repair, which is very important in the prevention of chronic illnesses and even cancer. The organs with the highest concentrations of NAD+ are the heart and brain, so the lack of NAD+ can put these organs at risk for degenerative conditions (ie. Alzheimers). For this reason, NAD+ can potentially be very effective in preventing dementia, Parkinsons, and even multiple sclerosis.
For many, the early signs of aging include periods of brain fog, forgetfulness, reduced athletic performance, fatigue, and changes of the skin. Supplementation of NAD+ has been shown to revitalize the body from the inside out, which results in reducing each of these symptoms and much more.
There continues to be increasing evidence that suggests NAD+ and NADH play an important role in multiple biological processes in the brain such as neurotransmission, learning, and memory. It may also mediate brain aging and the tissue damage in various brain illnesses. This means that NAD+ may be able to signal the growth, repair and development of brain/nerve tissue. In other words, NAD+ may be able to virtually help the brain regenerate and reverse aging to some degree, allowing patients to feel like they did before the brain tissue was damaged either from injury, stressful events, brain disease or the regular aging process.
It has been shown that reduced NAD+ levels play a pivotal role in brain aging and neurodegenerative disorders. Therefore, NAD+ replenishment improves mitochondrial function and mitochondrial biogenesis and reduces accumulation of damaged mitochondria in both premature aging and Alzheimer’s disease.

NAD+ is administered via intravenous infusion and takes about two to four hours depending on each patient’s tolerance of the drip. During the drip, most patients experience some symptoms of chest tightness and/or butterflies in their stomach, but everyone is different. These symptoms are completely benign, and will go away within 20 seconds of slowing the drip. We like to think of the sensation of these symptoms as our cells getting the boost of energy that they’d been working so hard for! Typically, our areas of issue or disease are the areas of the body in which NAD+ is lacking, thus we typically feel the symptoms in those areas. In short, you’ll feel it where you need it!
Most patients report increased mental clarity as well as feeling energized, happier, more focused, and relaxed for the following days, weeks and months following NAD+ treatments.
As with all treatments, everybody is different and has different needs based on their health status and lifestyle. We highly recommend booking a consultation to get one of our providers’ professional recommendations based on your condition.
With that said, for those generally healthy individuals who are starting to see early signs of aging, degeneration, or just feeling like they could use a boost, our recommendation is to start with a “loading dose”, 3-4 consecutive days of 500mg of NAD+. After this, we typically recommend coming in for one treatment every 4 weeks. In our experience, this is how our patients receive optimal results with NAD+ therapy.
However, if you are interested in just trying one treatment, we encourage you to do so as you will likely still feel a difference.
As stated in “How should I expect to feel during an NAD+ treatment?”, some patients feel temporary symptoms of chest tightness and/or stomach discomfort during treatment. These symptoms are completely benign, and will go away within 20 seconds of slowing the drip.
After the treatment, there have been no negative side effects reported.
The supplements we provide and instruct patients to take before, during and after infusion are to increase the absorption rate and effectiveness of the NAD+ IV. All documentation with nutritional information will be provided to you upon receiving the supplementation for transparency.
NAD+, is the oxidized form of the coenzyme. When a molecule is in an oxidized state, it means it can accept the tiny negatively charged particles, called electrons, from another molecule. After it receives the electrons, it has a negative charge, so it also picks up a hydrogen atom from the surrounding environment, because hydrogen atoms are positively charged. Now, it is turned into the reduced form, also known as NADH.
The molecule acts as a carrier for electrons during cellular respiration. At various chemical reactions, the NAD+ picks up an electron from glucose, at which point it becomes NADH. Then NADH, along with another molecule known as flavin adenine dinucleotide (FADH2) will transport the electrons to the mitochondria, where the cell can harvest energy stored in the electrons. One can think of the NADH as a cargo truck, transporting electrons like trucks transport goods to a factory. Once at the factory, the workers, or in our case proteins in the mitochondria, take the raw goods and make something useful, in our case, ATP. For this reason, many biologists refer to ATP as the ‘energy currency of life.’
By providing more ATP to the cells as they differentiate, we are able to increase the efficiency of regenerative cells in the body.
