How to Test Your NAD+ Levels (and Why It Matters Before Starting Niagen)
Considering Niagen IV Therapy or oral supplementation to boost your NAD+ levels? Before you begin, there’s one smart step that can make your treatment more effective and more personal: NAD+ level testing.
Testing your NAD+ baseline gives you a clearer picture of your current cellular health and helps track how your body responds to therapy over time. At Medical House Calls, we offer convenient, at-home NAD+ level testing so you can start your Niagen journey with precision and confidence.
Niagen IV Therapy: The Powerful Precursor to NAD+
What Is NAD+ and Why Does It Matter?
NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a coenzyme found in every single cell in your body. It fuels critical processes like energy production, DNA repair, metabolism, immune response, and brain function. Simply put, NAD+ is essential for life—and for aging well.
But here’s the catch: your body’s natural NAD+ levels decline significantly with age, stress, illness, and poor lifestyle habits. By middle age, most people have about half the NAD+ they had in their youth. Low NAD+ levels are associated with:
- Fatigue and low energy
- Brain fog or reduced cognitive performance
- Slower metabolism
- Poor recovery from stress or illness
- Visible signs of aging
That’s where Niagen comes in—but testing your levels first can make your results even better.
Why Test Your NAD+ Levels Before Starting Niagen?
1. Establish Your Baseline
Everyone starts from a different place. Testing your NAD+ levels before treatment allows you to understand how depleted your levels may be and set realistic goals for improvement.
2. Track Your Progress
One of the best parts about NAD+ testing is being able to measure results. With follow-up tests, you can see how your levels have changed after a few weeks of Niagen IV Therapy or supplementation.
3. Personalize Your Plan
Your results can help our medical team recommend the most appropriate dosage and delivery method—whether that’s 500mg IV infusions, 1,000mg oral capsules, or a combination of both.
4. Stay Motivated With Measurable Results
Seeing real data is powerful. NAD+ level testing helps reinforce the effectiveness of your treatment and keeps you committed to your long-term health goals.
