What is Liposomal NAD+?

As more people look for ways to support energy, focus, recovery, and healthy aging, NAD+ has become one of the most talked-about wellness options available today. But what exactly is it, and how does liposomal NAD+ compare to NAD+ infusions and injections?

According to Liquid Wellness & IV CEO Christine Ricci, NAD+ is one of the most important tools people can add to their wellness routine as they age.

“One of the things in our toolkit that everybody who is aging should have is NAD,” says Ricci. “NAD is something that is part of every single cell in your body, and you have trillions of cells.”

What Is NAD+?

NAD+ stands for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, a coenzyme naturally found in every cell of the body. It plays a major role in cellular energy production and helps support the mitochondria, often referred to as the “powerhouses” of the cell.

“NAD also helps feed your mitochondria so your cells do what they’re supposed to do,” Christine explains.

NAD+ levels naturally decline with age. Stress, poor sleep, illness, alcohol consumption, and lifestyle factors may also contribute to lower NAD+ levels over time. Many people begin looking into NAD+ support when they experience symptoms like:

Low energy
Brain fog
Difficulty focusing
Feeling run down
Slower recovery
Signs of aging

“This is something that gets depleted over time,” says Christine. “So we lose energy. We start to age. We start to feel run down.”

What Is Liposomal NAD+?

Liposomal NAD+ is an oral form of NAD+ designed to improve absorption in the body. Unlike standard supplements that may break down in the digestive system before being fully utilized, liposomal delivery systems help protect the active ingredients.

“Liposomal means that it bypasses those gastric enzymes so you get more bioavailability and more absorption in your body,” says Ricci.

Many people choose liposomal NAD+ because it offers a convenient daily option that can easily fit into their routine without appointments, needles, or infusion sessions.

“It’s something you take every day,” Ricci explains. “If you don’t like infusions or injections, this is a great one to have on hand.”

How Is Liposomal NAD+ Different From NAD+ Infusions?

NAD+ infusions deliver NAD+ directly into the bloodstream through an IV. This allows for higher doses to enter circulation immediately and may be preferred for people looking for more intensive wellness support.

At Liquid Wellness & IV, NAD+ infusions are popular among guests looking to support:

Energy
Mental clarity
Recovery
Healthy aging
Overall wellness

Infusions are administered in-clinic and typically take longer than a standard IV due to the nature of NAD+ delivery.

Liposomal NAD+, on the other hand, is taken orally at home and is designed for ongoing daily support and convenience.

NAD+ Infusions

Administered intravenously
Higher dose delivery
In-clinic experience
Popular for more intensive support

Liposomal NAD+

Oral daily supplement
Convenient at-home option
No needles or IV appointments

How Is Liposomal NAD+ Different From NAD+ Injections?

NAD+ injections are another popular option for people looking for a faster and more convenient alternative to infusions. Injections are typically self-administered or administered quickly in-clinic and may fit better into busy schedules.

Compared to injections, liposomal NAD+ does not require needles and can be incorporated into a simple daily wellness routine.

NAD+ Injections

Quick administration
Injectable format
Convenient for travel or busy schedules

Which NAD+ Option Is Right for You?

The best NAD+ option depends on your goals, lifestyle, and personal preferences. Some people prefer the convenience of a daily liposomal supplement, while others choose injections or infusions for a different level of support.

At Liquid Wellness & IV, guests often appreciate having multiple NAD+ options available based on their needs.
