Questions, answered

What the molecules are, how they are administered, what the figures on the label mean, and how the product is stored once it reaches you.

The product and its use

NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is the most important longevity molecule in the human body. Without it, cells cannot produce energy, repair DNA, regulate metabolism or protect their mitochondria.

Both are made from the same formulation. The 10 ml vial is for IV infusion, intramuscular injection and professional protocols, administered by qualified healthcare professionals. The pen is subcutaneous, for prescribed use at home, with faster absorption and a steadier release.

Subcutaneously, into the fatty tissue of the abdomen or thigh, with a sterile single-use needle and a fresh site each time. Your clinician shows you the technique before you use it at home. We publish no schedule or quantity here, because both are set for you individually.

Most people report a brief sting at most. A solution taken straight from the fridge stings more than one that has come up to room temperature, so let the vial or the pen stand for a few minutes first.

That is why the line has five of them. NAD+ is combined with L-Glutathione, Vitamin B12, Biotin and L-Carnitine in professional protocols. Which combination suits you is a decision for the clinician supervising your therapy.

Science and formulation

Levels begin to decline from the age of 25 and fall sharply after 40. That shows up as fatigue, mental fog, slower metabolism and reduced physical endurance.

It is the proportion of the formulation that is the active molecule itself, with everything else accounted for. It is a pharmaceutical-grade figure for the NAD+ and L-Glutathione formulations, vial and pen alike.

Mitochondria turn nutrients into ATP, the energy every cell runs on, and the enzymes that do it need NAD+ to work. Less NAD+ means the same machinery running slower, which is why a lack of energy is the first thing people notice when levels fall.

Both are families of enzymes involved in DNA repair and in the regulation of cellular ageing, and both consume NAD+ to do their work. They are the reason NAD+ is discussed as a longevity molecule and not only as an energy one.

An injection does not pass through the digestive system, so far more of what is administered reaches the tissue. Intravenous delivery in a clinic acts fastest; the subcutaneous pen releases more steadily across the day.

As little as the process allows. The purity figure is the honest way to answer this: in the NAD+ and L-Glutathione formulations, 99.05% of the contents is the active molecule itself. L-Carnitine is of ultra-high purity, and Vitamin B12 and Biotin are pharmaceutically pure.

Effects and expectations

It varies, and we would rather say so than promise a date. Some people describe more energy and clearer focus within the first week, while the slower processes, the ones the therapy is actually aimed at, work on a scale of weeks. The response is individual and nothing here is a guarantee.

Most often more usable energy across the day, sharper focus, better sleep and a steadier mood. These are reports from people using it, not outcomes we promise.

The intent of a continued protocol is support for healthy ageing: cellular repair, metabolic balance, physical resilience and the capacity to recover. This is the part that asks for consistency rather than intensity.

Neurons are among the most energy-hungry cells in the body, so they are sensitive to a fall in cellular energy. Supporting NAD+ levels supports that machinery, and clearer thinking is one of the most commonly reported effects.

Yes, more for recovery than for performance itself. Mitochondrial function sits behind endurance and behind how quickly muscle repairs after load, and that is where the interest comes from.

L-Glutathione is the molecule most associated with skin here: it works against oxidative stress and supports an even tone and elasticity. Biotin is aimed at hair, skin and nails. Effects are gradual and vary from person to person.

Safety and supervision

Qualified healthcare professionals, in a clinical environment. Dosing is a decision for the supervising clinician, which is why no dosing information is published here.

Mild and short-lived ones are reported at the start: a feeling of warmth or flushing, brief nausea, or tiredness on the day. Drinking enough water helps. Anything that persists or worries you belongs with the clinician supervising your therapy.

Anyone with an active malignancy, an autoimmune condition or on immunosuppressive therapy should speak to their doctor before starting. The same applies to any diagnosed chronic condition.

Not recommended. There is not enough safety data for either, and where the data is missing the answer is no.

Ask your doctor first, particularly with chemotherapy, immunotherapy or cardiac medication. This is not a question to settle from a website.

Delivery, storage and supply

No. Continuously refrigerated transport is not required. The formulation is made to tested stability standards and shipped in packaging that protects it from light, so a short period at room temperature in transit does not compromise it. Put it in the fridge once it reaches you.

In the fridge, between 2 and 8 degrees, away from light and from heat. Keep it closed and clean, and observe the expiry date on the packaging.

No. Warmth in transit is expected and the stability of the formulation is designed around it. Put it in the fridge when it arrives and use it as normal.

Sealed, sterile vials in discreet packaging that shields them from light. Transport is arranged so that exposure to heat stays short, and the storage instructions travel with the shipment.

In a sharps container, never in household waste. Your pharmacy or your clinic will tell you where to hand it in locally.

Yes. Professional-use vials are supplied to longevity clinics, wellness centres and medical practices. Write to us and we will take it from there.

The everyday routine

Morning is the common choice, since the effect most people are after is energy through the day. Some prefer the evening because they associate it with recovery and sleep. Either is reasonable; what suits your protocol is a question for your clinician.

Alcohol, refined sugar and large amounts of caffeine are worth skipping on the day itself, and drinking enough water is worth doing. Whole food and good fats around it, nothing elaborate.

It is not a requirement. Some people prefer a fasted morning and there is a reasonable argument for it, but consistency matters far more than timing it perfectly.

Continue with the schedule as soon as you remember. Do not take two to make up for one.
