Can this be done only once every 3 months and still be effective? What happens when you stop taking them?
so which better take liposomal glutathione or nmn?
I did my first 2 hour nad infusion. It’s been one month and I feel amazing. I’m 64. I have never had so much energy.
I can only find nmnh on Amazon. It’s with the H. Is that same, better, or worse?
Thank you for such clear explanation 👌
Glad it was helpful!
Can you take NMN and NR together? Would there be a benefit to taking both, or would there not be?
Yes you can. It will drive the AND+ production pathway theoretically! I am not sure of any research which shows taking both is more beneficial though.
Have you seen any evidence of LDN helping with Restless Leg Syndrome?
I have not seen it directly affecting RLS. However, it helps with sleep, so, it might make falling asleep easier.
I got bad side effects from NAC. Can I take NAD instead?
NAC and NAD+ are not related. So, the short answer is yes. The question remains why you got a bad side effect fro NAC though.
I saw a lot of people having these, brain fog and anxiety. Don't know why. Thanks for your comment..👍
After COVID - I used 1500mg a day at night of NAC, 5 days later, lungs clear as a whistle and I could breathe better than before COVID.
Thank you for sharing that with us.
@@BodyofHarmony Absolutely.
Oh PLEASE!!! Not another old drug new use!!!! I have SLE. Forget it!! No more experimental treatments!!
OK.
Very informative. Thanks!

Does LDN help with Functional Neurological Disorder caused by Covid 19 infection? My symptoms are weakness of the arm with loss of movements in the hand . Would LDN help me regain movements?
Based on experience it does. But there are no scientific research as far as I know.
I'm going to get the self injections. They are expensive but not as going to a clinic. What are your thoughts on that?
They help, but are not as effective!
I was on the capsule form of 1.5mg and it gave me energy & I felt great as my under active thyroid was finally functioning well however the capsules gave me reflux. Then I tried using the cream which was too strong and made me feel unwell no matter the strength so after a month of trying I gave up. So next my GP prescribed troches. I had my first small dose 1/4 of 1.5mg + 1/8 th last night ( equal to .56mg) & today I finally felt well. I’ll slowly increase it to find my sweet spot & continue to have blood tests for my thyroid function. I know when my thyroid is functioning well - I just couldn’t seem to respond well to the cream at all , which I rubbed into my forearms where the skin is thinner- as instructed by my GP.
Thank you for sharing your experience!
Can a person with Rheumatoid Arthritis take NAD?
Yes, I don't see why not. RA is not a contraindication to NAD use.
What do you mean by bare minimum doses? What doses have personally tried that made you tired? Thank you.
Y are doctors not on strike nationally?
???
Do you suggest this for help with chronic hep b? I've never had to take any medicine but for over a year now my liver enzymes and DNA replication has gone through the roof and not coming down
I recommend you seek the advice of a Functional Medicine physician to help with that.
Is it ok to mix NAC glycine and NMN TMG, is it ok to take both. My family memeber is sick and Im tryiing to help, please I hope you can answer.
Those supplements can be taken during the day if no contraindications.
NMN or NAD for alcohol cravings?
Both, together. Add: bodyofharmony.com/products/adrenal-supplement?_pos=1&_sid=1cc7cc19f&_ss=r&variant=12542435491927

Wonderful and informative. Thank you doc❤

I'm also taking Black Seed oil for my Hashimotos. My TG antibodies dropped from 20 to 3.1 in less than a year. My TPO antibodies dropped from over 1300 to 112. I also am on the AIP diet (no gluten, dairy, soy) and that helped a lot
Impressive! Thank you...
LDN gave me my life back. Hashimotos and POTS gave me severe brain fog. LDN turned that around overnight
Thank you for sharing that!
How much it cost for IV infusions?
It all depends on the dosage. From $250-$1500
I had my first dose today 50cc no side effects
Thanks for sharing!
Do we get the same benefits on higher dose? I started taking it to cut back on drinking (I ended up quitting for good.) I have psoriatic arthritis and would like to know if I should keep going even if I don't need it for drinking too much. I feel better now that I'm taking it but a lot of that is from giving up alcohol.
Where can we get LDN online? Who can prescribe it and insure flow up online? This treatment is completely unknown in Morocco (north africa) .
I don't know of any online medical practices that offer LDN. It is important to prescribe LDN for a specific inflammatory cause, therefore, we do laboratory evaluation and look at parameters along with patient symptoms. So, it needs a medical office.
Is it true that NAC can deplete DAO in the gut and raise histamine ??
Limited evidence: The research on NAC's impact on DAO is limited, and more studies are needed to confirm the effect and establish safe dosage ranges. Dosage dependence: The potential effect on DAO might be dose-dependent, with higher doses having a greater impact. Individual variability: People may have varying responses to NAC, and some might not experience DAO depletion or histamine issues. People's DAO activity levels vary naturally. Those with already low DAO activity might be more susceptible to histamine issues with NAC.
I am long covid, long Lyme, celiac, dermatitis, gut dysbiosis, see 11😪drs here in RI, who treat 11 symptoms..is there anway to do a telemedicine+ then get rx for compound pharmacy, tu🙏💓
The best way is to find a Functional Medicine physician around you who prescribes LDN. It is beneficial to have someone examine you and look at all your medical history.
Namaste PLEASE DO CONSIDER REPLYING WILL MEAN A LOT ..THANKS IN ADVANCE My parents mother 64 & father 69 old ...i want them ti have NAC & NAd+ can these 2 supplements be taken together...my father has lung issues...MY GOAL IS TO REVERSE THERE AGING & INCREASE THERE LIFE SPAN
Hello, First of all because of their age all supplements need to be discussed with their general doctor. They might be on medication or have conditions that might worsen with any supplements. In general these 2 supplements can be taken together if no medical issues.
Hi there , I have severe fibromyalgia pain for 25 years ! I don't take any painkillers at all , I am starting LDN this week but my doctor says I should I be fine to start on 4.5mg as it's till LDN low dose .... do you agree with that dosage to start with ? Many thanks For your outstanding video
Yes, 4.5 was the original dosage we all used. The sleep changes that I explained in the video were for that dosage. Please let us know how you feel within 3-6 months of starting it. Best of luck with LDN. Make sure you are also evaluating your digestive system and hormones, including Cortisol. We got better results when we managed thyroid and cortisol and used anti-inflammatory supplements.
Thank you, it was nice session, just wanted to know how often you should have these sessions to see a difference in your health. Thank you
The frequency is based on what you want to accomplish based on what your doctor recommends. Even if you get one session in you will see the difference. During COVID I was getting those once a week. So, different frequency based on what you are dealing with.
@@BodyofHarmony Thank you for your reply, what about if someone recovering from a month long of chemotherapy, what do you suggest as Vitamins and what frequency?
For those of you who have problems taking LDN-. Try the tincture! LDN is a wonderful drug- a bit of a learning curve and I had to titrate slowly from 1.5 to 4.5 but it’s been smooth sailing w9th remarkable effects. I can now WALK-have increased energy, stamina-- just amazing results and I am doing things I only dreamed about six months ago. Thank you to my young internist who did research with LDN as a resident at Yale--
Thank you very much for sharing that information here!
Thankyou so much for such efficient information.. wish all doctors were or are the likes of you. If you could shed some light on what derivative of Nac should be taken.. also if NAD is being taken along with NAC how should we go about it..
Thank you very much for your comments. Most of these NAC derivatives are still under investigation. More research is needed to determine their safety, efficacy, and optimal use compared to NAC. These derivatives are not commercially available yet. Most people can take both NAD and NAC if they do not have any medical conditions. It is always advised to check any supplement with your physician first.
I am having NASH and diabetes and taking NAC regularly. Can I take NAD+ also?
Obviously this needs to be discussed with your internist and liver doctor if you have one as I cannot give directions online. However, NAD+ is in a different pathway than NAC, so they should be fine taken together.
Well explained, thank you! Is it better to take the precursor NAC to increase glutithione or get glutithione directly? I've heard it's better for the body to take the precursors. I have been taking 25mg of niacinamide 2-3 times a day to increase NAD. Do you think this is a good strategy?
Glutathione shows bioavailability intravenously, if you can get that directly it is better. Yes, Niacinamide as a precursor to NAD.
You look like george clooney!!!
He looks like me!
New research shows it could cause cancer . Is that so?
Here is what I had found a while back: There might be some recent changes. If you have any information other than this would you please let me know. Remember our body is full of NAD! I am not aware of any research that shows D-Ribose, NMN, NR, Niacin, or Nicotinamide cause cancer or any causation or correlation studies attributing NAD+ to causing or exacerbating cancer. There are theories hypothesizing that there might be a relative risk of exacerbating cancer based on the Glycolosis pathways. NAD+ is responsible for more than 500 reactions in the body and the primary source of energy to the human body. On the other hand some of the reactions NAD+ is responsible in are in DNA repair enzymes potentially reducing the chance of cancer. NAD+, through the effects of PARP’s, may both suppress and progress tumorigenesis, this might be related to prevention of DNA mutations. NAD+ should not be used in breast cancer treatment or any cancer treatment which uses PARP inhibitors. Animal studies of wild type mice has failed to provide any evidence of increased tumor size or number. Interestingly, over expression off NMNAT3 raises mitochondria NAD+ and inhibits the growth of glioblastoma cells and supplementation with NA or NAM inhibits tumor growth and multi-organ metastasis in SCID mice. A phase 3 randomized trial of Nicotinamide for skin cancer chemo-prevention concluded Oral nicotinamide was safe and effective in reducing the rates of new non melanoma skin cancers and actinic keratoses in high-risk patients. If someone is undergoing cancer therapeutics they should stay away from all supplements unless they have been approved or prescribed by their hematologist / oncologist. For those with previous history or family history of cancers the same statement should be made regarding NAD+ boosters. Other studies involving FK866 to reduce the NAD+ did not show any tumor remission in patients with advanced solid tumors. Individuals with family history of cancers, previous history of cancer, suffering from cancers, or undergoing cancer therapeutics should not use NR, NMN, NAD+, D-RIbose, or any other supplements that may increase NAD+ without the approval of their hematologist or oncologist.
Thank you Dr Hakimi. You 21:53 have explained the benefits and function of NAD so well. I have had several rounds of 1/2 dose IV NAD with supplementing inbetween with NMN , it seems enough for my body at this stage and it is also keeos the cost down. Why is NAD so costly?
Thank you for that! And yes, NAD is an expensive molecule... We have to ask the pharmacists why!
Is NAD a molecule that can be taken orally
Thank you Dr Hakimi. You have explained the benefits and function of NAD so well.
I am glad it was beneficial.
How much NAD mg do you put in each IV bag?
Different amounts for different reasons and different patients. Some of my patients are getting 100mg and that is what they can tolerate, others, much higher!
Now that I've learned a little bit more about the precursors, I can see why I had such a bad Herc reaction every time I got an NAD IV.. After doing my labs, I saw that I had high amounts of inflammation and low on my b vitamins... Could that be why I had such a bad Herc reaction every time I got the NAD??
Thank you for the question: Herxheimer reaction is not part of NAD+ infusion. I think they were giving you the IV at a higher dose than your body could handle. NAD+ may detoxify cells but it does not directly work as an antibiotics!
Can you do a video regarding the herk reaction to the glutatheon?
Excellent video and explanation - thank you!!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!

Thanks for sharing that!
Dear Doctor Hakimi, Is there something you can recommend for osteoporosis and osteoarthritis?
Is it safe to take these if you have uterine fibroids? I’ve heard they make cancer or tumor cells grow?
