NAD+

NAD+ Testing

NAD (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) is a vital molecule involved in energy production, cellular repair, and healthy ageing. It plays a key role in mitochondrial function, DNA repair, metabolism, and brain health. As we age, NAD levels naturally decline, which may contribute to fatigue, cognitive changes, and other age-related concerns.

NAD+ testing helps assess your current cellular energy status and can guide targeted support strategies to improve vitality, longevity, and metabolic function.

What Can NAD+ Testing Help Identify?

This simple dried blood spot test provides valuable insights into how well your body is producing and utilising cellular energy. It may be useful in identifying:

• Low cellular energy or mitochondrial dysfunction
• Age-related decline in vitality
• Poor stress response or chronic fatigue
• Impaired metabolism and detoxification
• Cognitive decline or neurological symptoms
• Reduced exercise tolerance or muscle fatigue
• Suspected NAD deficiency contributing to premature ageing

Who Should Consider This Test?

NAD+ testing may be helpful for people experiencing:

• Ongoing fatigue or burnout
• Low motivation or mental clarity
• Accelerated ageing or premature skin changes
• Poor recovery from exercise or stress
• Chronic health conditions involving mitochondrial dysfunction
• A desire to optimise healthy ageing and energy at a cellular level

It is also ideal for individuals using NAD supplements or IV therapy and wanting to monitor their effectiveness.

How Does the Test Work?

The NAD+ test is performed using a small, dried blood sample that can be collected at home or in-clinic. This sample is then analysed to determine NAD levels in the blood, providing insight into your body’s current energy status and ability to support vital cellular functions.

Your practitioner at Melbourne Natural Medicine Clinic will use your results to guide a personalised plan. This may include lifestyle adjustments, NAD-supportive nutrients, and mitochondrial-targeted therapy. You can speak with our team to hear more about how we can help replete your NAD levels.
