Dr. Kristen delves deep into the transformative benefits of NAD injections. NAD, or nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, is essential for key functions in the body, including DNA repair, cellular metabolism, and the regulation of circadian rhythm.

Through NAD injections, you can significantly boost metabolism by enhancing your body's ability to convert food into energy more efficiently. Not only does this help with weight loss, but it also aids in insulin regulation and cellular health, making NAD injections a powerful tool for those with insulin resistance or metabolic concerns.

Dr. Kristen explains how NAD injections improve brain function by clearing brain fog, reducing inflammation, and even offering neuroprotective benefits that may help prevent diseases like Alzheimer’s and dementia. NAD also enhances the body’s natural energy levels, allowing patients to experience a noticeable energy boost and improved sleep. With better sleep, patients can better manage fatigue and improve overall health.
