Recovery with NAD Therapy offers hope for those who wish to end their dependence to drugs or alcoho
l. As many of you know, recovery is unique to each individual and can occur in many different forms. Each individual entering a drug or alcohol treatment program has their own distinct needs, strengths, preferences, goals, culture, backgrounds, and support systems. This all determines the best course of action for treatment and recovery. It is a highly personal experience that builds on strengths, talents, coping abilities, and resources of each individual. But there are some advantages to beginning a recovery with NAD Therapy.
NAD Therapy (like ExecuCare’s NTR Brain Restoration) is a nutrition-assisted detox that utilizes nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD), amino acids, vitamins, minerals and co-factors to flush out stored drugs from the body and its organs (in days rather than weeks or months), replenish balance in the brain, and reverse damage of chronic use. Because it is received directly through an IV, the nutrients bypass the stomach and go directly to the receptors in the brain. Research has shown that recovery with NAD therapy increases the synthesis of certain neurotransmitters in the brain known to be effective in correcting specific chemical imbalances. One of the results of this is a significant reduction in withdrawal symptoms and cravings. (Herein lies the advantage to those who are committed to having a successful recovery since withdrawal and cravings are two of the biggest risks for relapse).
But how do you know if you need it? In New Orleans we have a saying, laissez les bon temps rouler (“let the good times roll”). And often times in our culture, it is difficult to quantify how much is too much. So at ExecuCare, we like to look at it like this: if you continue to use drugs and alcohol, if you continue to “let those good times roll”, despite the negative consequences that it is having in your life, then it might be a good time to re-evaluate your situation. It might be time to reach out to one of our specialists who can help you build a program tailored to your specific needs and with the advantage of NAD Therapy.
Recovery can include many different approaches and may involve some setbacks. It is a process of continual growth and improvement. At ExecuCare, we laud the resilience of all the individuals living a healthy and full life in recovery, their families, and those determined to make recovery an option for all those in need.
