NAD+ and IV Therapy for Recovery: What to Know

Travel, training, illness, and high-output weeks all draw down your body's reserves faster than rest alone can replenish them. IV therapy and NAD+ protocols are tools some use to support recovery. Here is a measured look at what they are, and what they are not.

What IV therapy does

Intravenous therapy delivers fluids, electrolytes, vitamins, and minerals directly, which can help you rehydrate and replenish efficiently after heavy output or illness. Formulations vary by goal. It is one part of a recovery strategy, not a cure-all.

Where NAD+ fits

NAD+ is a coenzyme central to cellular energy. NAD+ protocols aim to support energy and recovery. The evidence is still developing, so we describe it in measured terms and set realistic expectations.

Recovery is a system

The biggest gains come from the basics: sleep, training load, and nutrition. IV and NAD+ support work best inside a coordinated plan that also considers performance medicine and peptide therapy where appropriate.

Getting started

If recovery is your limiter, the right cadence depends on your schedule and goals. Request an appointment to build a recovery plan that fits your life.
