About NAD+ Therapy
NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) is a coenzyme present in every cell of your body, essential for over 500 enzymatic reactions including energy metabolism, DNA repair, and cellular signalling. After your mid-20s, NAD+ levels decline by roughly 50% per decade. Supplementing with NAD+ via subcutaneous injection helps restore youthful cellular function, supporting energy, cognition, and longevity.
Most users report improved energy levels within the first 1–2 weeks, followed by enhanced mental clarity, better sleep quality, and faster physical recovery. Over longer periods (3–6 months), users often notice improved metabolic health, reduced signs of ageing, stronger immune function, and improved cardiovascular endurance. Individual results vary based on starting NAD+ levels, lifestyle, and consistency of use.
Results vary between individuals. Many users notice increased energy and improved sleep within the first 1–2 weeks of daily loading doses. Cognitive improvements typically become apparent in weeks 2–4. The full range of anti-ageing and metabolic benefits generally become evident after 60–90 days of consistent use. We recommend committing to a minimum 30-day protocol before assessing results.
Oral NAD+ supplements face significant degradation in the digestive tract before reaching the bloodstream. Subcutaneous injection delivers NAD+ directly into the tissue just beneath the skin, bypassing the digestive system entirely. Studies show subcutaneous delivery achieves up to 10× higher bioavailability compared to oral supplementation, resulting in faster and more pronounced therapeutic effects.

Using the NADvance Pen
The NADvance Pen uses an ultra-fine 32-gauge needle — significantly thinner than a standard syringe needle. Most users describe the sensation as a very brief, mild pinch, with no lingering pain. The pre-set injection depth and automatic needle retraction ensure a consistent, comfortable experience. Mild redness or slight bruising at the injection site is normal and typically resolves within hours.
Yes. The NADvance Pen is specifically designed for safe, simple home self-injection. The auto-injector mechanism removes the need for manual needle handling, and the safety lock prevents accidental activation. Full step-by-step instructions are included in your kit and available on our Instructions page. Our clinical team is also available 24/7 to walk you through your first injection if needed.
Recommended subcutaneous injection sites are: (1) the abdomen — at least 2 inches away from the navel; (2) the outer thigh — middle section; (3) the back of the upper arm. Rotate between these sites with each injection to prevent tissue irritation and ensure optimal absorption. Avoid areas with scar tissue, bruising, or active skin conditions.
If you miss a dose, simply inject as soon as you remember — unless it is close to the time for your next scheduled dose. In that case, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular schedule. Do not double-dose to make up for a missed injection. Consistency is important, but one missed dose will not significantly impact your overall treatment outcome.
Used pens are classed as sharps waste and must be disposed of in your included sharps container. Never place used pens in household recycling or general waste. Once your sharps container is full (to the fill line — never above), seal it securely and take it to a local pharmacy or NHS sharps disposal point.

Safety & Side Effects
NADvance is generally very well tolerated. Common mild side effects include brief redness or slight bruising at the injection site, which typically resolves within a few hours. Some users report mild fatigue or a feeling of warmth in the first few days as their body adjusts — this is normal. Rarely, users may experience mild nausea or headache during the initial loading phase. Serious reactions are extremely rare. Contact our clinical team if you have any concerns.
We do not currently recommend NADvance therapy during pregnancy or while breastfeeding, as there is insufficient clinical data to confirm safety in these populations. If you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, please consult your GP or obstetrician before starting any new therapy.
NAD+ therapy is generally compatible with most common medications. However, we recommend consulting your GP or pharmacist if you are taking anticoagulants (blood thinners), immunosuppressants, or chemotherapy agents. If you are on any prescription medication, always inform your prescribing doctor that you are starting NAD+ supplementation.
NAD+ therapy may actually be beneficial for metabolic health in people with type 2 diabetes, as NAD+ plays a key role in glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity. However, if you have diabetes — particularly type 1 — we strongly recommend consulting your endocrinologist or GP before starting therapy.
