Can NAD⁺ Help Heal the Brain After Injury?

When someone has a traumatic brain injury (TBI)—like a concussion or worse—the brain burns through its supply of NAD⁺, a molecule every cell needs for energy, repair, and fighting inflammation.

What goes wrong after TBI?

• Cells lose energy because mitochondria break down
• NAD⁺ gets drained trying to repair damage
• Inflammation flares up
• Nerve cells start to die
  
  

How can NAD⁺ help? 

Research in animals shows that boosting NAD⁺ levels can:

• Protect brain cells
• Reduce inflammation
• Help nerves regenerate
• Improve memory and movement after injury

Although not yet standard of care, NAD⁺ is a rational and biologically supported adjunct for future TBI therapy

And, of course, we recommend NADVITALITYBLEND which helps your cells make more NAD and blocks enzymes that break down NAD!
