NAD+ is a molecule that plays a crucial role in cell metabolism. It helps cells keep themselves healthy. NAD+ Treatments can offer health and wellness benefits such as a reduced risk of chronic diseases, healthy weight management, and improved cognitive function.

Studies are showing that the benefits to the brain and cognitive functions are higher than previously considered, with some studies claiming to have proven anti-aging effects and improved cognitive function in those with neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Dementia.

Some are still not convinced of the true “anti-aging” benefits of NAD+ Treatments, but others who have undergone the treatments and their family members say the benefits have been spectacular.

How Does NAD+ Target Cellular Aging?

A recent study put intense research surrounding NAD+ molecules’ ability connection to aging. Specifically, the NAD+ natural levels in humans decrease as we get older. Chronic low NAD+ levels have been observed in people with both accelerated aging disorders and age related diseases,  and cellular health and longevity have been directly tied to healthy NAD+ levels.

Why is There Controversy Surrounding NAD+ Treatments for Anti-Aging?

There is controversy over businesses marketing “NAD+ Therapy” as “Anti-Aging Treatments.” The way the treatments are marketed can cause the problem. Critics of NAD+ Therapy for anti-aging assert that many businesses are falsely claiming that NAD+ treatments can offer blanket “Anti-Aging” benefits.

While it is true that some studies have shown anti-aging capabilities of NAD+, no medical agency nor the FDA has approved a NAD+ treatment for anti-aging.

NAD+ and Alzheimer’s Disease

The same recent study also showed that NAD+ Restoration improved cognition and nerve regeneration in Alzheimer Disease Animal Models. Cardiovascular improvements, increased muscle function, increased physical endurance, increased capacity for organ protection, and even increased fertility were observed in NAD+ restoration studies in aged mice.

Although there is not currently a NAD+ treatment specifically designed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s and other neurodegenerative diseases, these patients may see holistic benefits from the treatments. Studies are currently underway to see if Using NAD+ Treatments can combat age-related neurodegenerative diseases, a full approved treatment is some time away.

Brain Benefits of NAD+ Therapy

Man of those who utilize NAD+ Therapy for skin care also tout the ancillary benefits like increased energy, better mood, and “having a clearer head.”

Some people have been quoted as saying it helps “brain fog” that is a negative side effect of treatments like chemotherapy, or when recovering from a stroke.

Can NAD+ Help Dementia?

One study has shown that NAD+ supplementation helps to “preserve cognitive health and function.” This means that NAD+ therapy can help to prevent or slow the progression of both Dementia and Alzheimer’s Disease. That’s good news from this study; however, the same study also found no evidence that NAD+ supplementation can “reverse” the onset of neurodegenerative diseases, and therefore does not have apparent potential as a “cure” for Alzheimer’s or Dementia.

Further good news that came from this study is that they found that NAD+ supplementation could also improve long-term cognitive health in those with diabetes, stroke, and traumatic brain injuries.

Future Studies May Find NAD+ Links to Anti-Aging Capabilities

Proponents of NAD+ for anti-aging say that the early research is enough to say there is a definite link between the molecule and anti-aging supplements, treatments and medicines. The Aging Institute Drug Discovery Group is working on studies of the molecules closely related to NAD+ in hopes of finding the anti-aging properties they seek.

Molecules like nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT) – which regulates the natually occuring NAD+ levels in the body — is being seen as a possible compound and mechanism for improving cognitive function.

Can I Take NAD+ Treatments for Anti-Aging?

NAD+ Treatments for Dementia and Alzheimer’s Disease

Although there is no evidence that NAD+ treatments will reverse or improve the conditions of Dementia or Alzheimer’s, we and other physicians have found that the ancillary benefits of the therapy are very good for those suffering with neurodegenerative diseases, and we recommend patients and their families try it for themselves if they are interested, have questions, or are curious to learn the benefits first-hand.
