The Energy Shot Celebrities Swear By: Is NAD+ Right for You?

If you’re looking for a natural way to boost your energy, improve brain clarity, and support weight loss—especially after using medications like Semaglutide or Tirzepatide—NAD+ injections might be the missing piece.

What Is NAD+?

NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is something your body already makes. It’s often called “cellular fuel” because your cells need to create energy, repair DNA, and function at their best.

But as we age—or go through stress, poor sleep, hormonal shifts, or rapid weight loss—NAD+ levels drop. That’s when you start to feel fatigued, foggy, and off-balance.

Supporting your NAD+ levels through weekly injections may help restore energy, boost metabolism, and support healthy aging.

What Does NAD+ Actually Do?

• Boosts natural energy (ATP production at the cellular level)

• Improves brain function—focus, clarity, and mood

• Supports metabolism and recovery after exercise or stress

• Repairs DNA to slow aging and disease processes

• Reduces oxidative stress (a cause of inflammation and fatigue)

• Promotes longevity and cellular wellness

What Does “Repairing DNA” Mean?

Tiny breaks in your DNA happen daily—from stress, toxins, or aging. NAD+ helps activate sirtuins, enzymes that repair DNA damage and keep your cells youthful and resilient.

What Is Oxidative Stress?

Think of oxidative stress like internal rust—when free radicals build up and damage cells. NAD+ supports your body’s defense systems to clear that damage, reduce inflammation, and restore energy.

Why Is NAD+ So Popular Right Now?

You’ve probably seen words like biohacking and longevity health on TikTok, podcasts, or wellness blogs. Here’s what they mean:

• Biohacking uses science-backed strategies—like NAD+—to help your body perform better: more energy, sharper brain, stronger recovery.

• Longevity health means aging better, not just longer—feeling vibrant and active at every stage of life.

No wonder celebrities, athletes, and high-performers are adding NAD+ to their anti-aging routines.

How We Use NAD+ at Envizion Medical

We offer NAD+ injections in two ways:

1. As an add-on to your weekly Semaglutide or Tirzepatide shot

2. As a step-down when transitioning off GLP-1 medications

Typical dose: 0.5 mL once per week (50 units), given by intramuscular (IM) injection—usually in the glute (hip), deltoid (upper arm), or outer thigh.

Yes—you can get NAD+ on the same day as your GLP-1 shot. Most of our patients do both during the same visit.

IM vs. SubQ Injections: What’s the Difference?

NAD+ can be injected two ways:

• IM (Intramuscular) – into the glute, deltoid, or outer thigh

  • Faster absorption, ideal for energy and focus

• SubQ (Subcutaneous) – into the abdomen or upper thigh

  • Easier for future self-injections and comfort-sensitive patients

How Often Can You Get NAD+?

• Start with a 4- to 6-week series

• Then switch to weekly or monthly maintenance

Many of our patients continue long-term as part of their wellness plan.

Why NAD+ Is the Ideal Add-On to GLP-1 Medications

If you’re using Semaglutide or Tirzepatide, NAD+ supports:

• Fatigue and low energy

• Muscle protection (less muscle loss while losing fat)

• Mental clarity and motivation

• Metabolic function during calorie restriction

If you're coming off GLP-1s, NAD+ helps:

• Prevent weight regain

• Boost energy naturally

• Maintain brain focus

• Stay metabolically balanced

Real Patient Benefits

Patients report:

• Clean, steady energy (without caffeine)

• Mental clarity and mood lift

• Better sleep and recovery

• Stronger workouts and faster bounce back

• Feeling “like themselves” again

Common Questions

Is this a weight loss shot?
Not directly—but NAD+ supports your body’s fat-burning systems. It improves energy, metabolism, and inflammation—all of which help maintain or continue weight loss, especially after finishing GLP-1 programs.

Can I start NAD+ after my GLP-1 program ends?
Yes. NAD+ is an ideal step-down injection. It helps many patients stay on track after hitting their goal weight.

Will I feel results right away?
Some feel a boost in 24–48 hours. Others notice steady improvements over the first few weeks.

How long can I stay on it?
As long as you’d like—weekly or monthly. It’s safe to use as part of your long-term wellness routine.

Is this the same as taking an NAD+ pill?
No. Oral NAD+ supplements only absorb about 20–30%, while injections go straight into your bloodstream for faster, more noticeable results.

Who Should NOT Get NAD+ Injections

• Pregnant or breastfeeding

• Active cancer (NAD+ can fuel both healthy and unhealthy cells)

• Advanced liver or kidney disease (NAD+ is processed by these organs)

• Allergy to NAD+ or injection ingredients

Pro Tip:

Side effects are rare and mild. Some people experience brief headache, warmth, or nausea—but most feel great after injection.
Stay hydrated and enjoy a light snack afterward if needed.

Ready to Feel the Difference?

Whether you're starting your weight loss journey or looking to stay sharp, energized, and active, NAD+ can help you thrive from the inside out.
