Montana summers are short and glorious, and most of us try to pack in as much as possible — long hikes in Glacier, days on Flathead Lake, biking, golfing, yard work, and travel. All of that activity, combined with heat, altitude, and the occasional late night, can leave you dehydrated, drained, and slow to bounce back. At Alpine Health & Wellness in Kalispell, IV nutritional therapy and NAD+ infusions are two services patients often ask about in the summer.
Several things stack up in the summer months:
IV nutritional therapy delivers fluids, electrolytes, and vitamins directly into a vein. Patients ask about it for hydration after a big day outdoors, around travel, or during a hot stretch of weather. Your provider will review your health history before any IV.
NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a coenzyme found in cells throughout the body. NAD+ infusions are not FDA-approved to treat, cure, or prevent any disease, research in people is limited, and individual experiences vary. Your provider will explain what is known and what is not before you decide.
Most IV nutritional therapy sessions take about 30 to 60 minutes. NAD+ infusions are given more slowly and can take longer.
There is no standard schedule. Your provider will talk through your goals and history at your visit.
No. A vitamin drip focuses on fluids, vitamins, and electrolytes. NAD+ is a specific coenzyme. Your provider can explain the difference in more detail.
Hydration starts with water, food, rest, and shade. If you would like to talk about IV therapy or NAD+, call Alpine Health & Wellness in Kalispell, MT at 406-361-7421 or book an appointment online.
