NAD+ Therapy Explained: What It Does for Energy and Why It Matters After 40

NAD+, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, is a coenzyme involved in energy production at the cellular level. NAD+ levels decline with age, which is associated with reduced energy, slower recovery, and metabolic changes. At Vita Wellness in Greenwood Village, NAD+ is available as an injection and infusion. The Vitality Membership at $160 per month includes 30% off NAD+ injections.

NAD+ Therapy Benefits – What the Research Shows

NAD+ is a coenzyme found in every cell of the body. It plays a central role in the conversion of food to cellular energy in the mitochondria. Without adequate NAD+, mitochondrial efficiency decreases and the body produces less energy from the same metabolic inputs.

NAD+ levels decline naturally with age. Research has found that NAD+ levels in older adults can be significantly lower than in younger adults, which is associated with reduced mitochondrial function and slower cellular repair processes. NAD+ is also involved in the activation of sirtuins, proteins associated with DNA repair, inflammation regulation, and metabolic function. Many findings come from animal models and early human trials rather than large-scale clinical trials.

NAD+ Function

What It Does

How It Declines With Age

Cellular energy production

Central coenzyme in mitochondrial ATP production

Mitochondrial efficiency declines as NAD+ levels fall.

Sirtuin activation

Activates proteins involved in DNA repair and inflammation regulation

Lower NAD+ means reduced sirtuin activity.

Metabolism support

Involved in glucose and fat metabolism pathways

Declining NAD+ is associated with metabolic changes common in aging.

Cellular repair

Supports PARP enzymes involved in DNA damage repair

Reduced cellular repair capacity is associated with aging-related decline.

Weight gain during perimenopause and after 40 is driven by specific hormonal changes including estrogen decline, thyroid shifts, and cortisol dysregulation. These changes alter how the body stores fat and responds to diet and exercise in ways that make standard approaches ineffective. A medically supervised program that addresses these drivers works differently from a generic diet.

Do Vitamin Injections Actually Help With Weight Loss? What the Vita Wellness Program Uses

Vitamin injections like Lipo Mino and B12 are used in medically supervised weight loss programs to support fat metabolism and energy during active weight loss. At Vita Wellness in Greenwood Village, Lipo Mino injections are included in both the semaglutide and tirzepatide weight loss programs. B12 and other single injections are available through the Shot Pass membership at $75 per month.

How Semaglutide Actually Works and Why It Is Not the Easy Way Out

Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist that mimics a gut hormone the body already produces. It slows gastric emptying, reduces appetite signals in the brain, and improves insulin sensitivity. It is injected once weekly and titrated over 16 to 20 weeks. Average weight loss in clinical trials is 15% of body weight. Optimal results may take up to three months.
