NAD+ Therapy: The Cellular Recharge You Didn’t Know You Needed

Many patients come to us at Onyx Weight Loss Clinic feeling exhausted, mentally foggy, slow to recover, or simply not like themselves, even while maintaining healthy habits. In many of these cases, the underlying issue isn't a lack of effort, but a lack of cellular energy. This is where NAD+ therapy can play a pivotal role.
What Is NAD+?
NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) is a coenzyme that exists in every cell in the human body. It is essential for cellular energy production, DNA repair, mitochondrial function, and the activation of longevity-related genes. NAD+ is especially critical for converting nutrients into usable energy in the form of ATP, the energy currency of the cell.
Unfortunately, NAD+ levels naturally decline with age and are further depleted by chronic stress, inflammation, poor sleep, alcohol use, infections, and certain medications. When NAD+ levels fall, the body becomes less efficient at energy production, cellular repair, and metabolic regulation—all of which can negatively impact quality of life and overall wellness.
NAD+ Therapy at Onyx Weight Loss Clinic
At Onyx, we offer NAD+ therapy in the form of subcutaneous injections. This method allows for convenient, steady absorption of NAD+ into the body without the time commitment of IV therapy.
NAD+ injections are typically administered three times weekly or as part of a broader treatment plan. They are used to help replenish depleted NAD+ stores and support the body's ability to heal, regenerate, and function optimally at the cellular level.
Potential Benefits of NAD+ Therapy
While individual responses vary, many patients report the following benefits after several weeks of consistent NAD+ therapy:
Improved energy and stamina
Enhanced mental clarity and cognitive function
Better mood stability and stress resilience
Improved metabolic efficiency
More restful sleep and recovery
Reduced brain fog and burnout
Support for anti-aging and longevity pathways
NAD+ therapy is particularly helpful for patients experiencing fatigue, hormonal shifts, inflammatory conditions, or slow recovery during weight loss or peptide-based treatment protocols.
Weight Loss and NAD+
Many of our patients are actively working toward weight loss and metabolic healing using GLP-1 therapy or other supportive peptides. Adding NAD+ to these regimens can enhance cellular resilience and support overall energy and performance, especially during calorie reduction or detoxification phases.
Because NAD+ also supports mitochondrial function and reduces oxidative stress, it is an excellent complement to patients experiencing fatigue or stagnation despite consistent weight loss efforts.
Who May Benefit from NAD+ Injections?
NAD+ therapy may be appropriate for:
Adults experiencing chronic fatigue or low energy
Individuals with brain fog, poor focus, or mood changes
Those recovering from illness, inflammation, or burnout
Patients using GLP-1s or other peptides who need mitochondrial support
Individuals seeking to improve metabolism and long-term healthspan
The Onyx Approach
At Onyx Weight Loss Clinic, we provide personalized peptide and wellness support based on your goals, health history, and lab results. NAD+ therapy can be added as a standalone energy support option or as part of a broader metabolic optimization strategy.
