NAD+ Patches
I recently purchased NAD+ from the NAD treatment center in San Diego. I purchased the NAD+ patches, 6 each @ 400mg each. The patches are a electrophoresis type patch that uses a battery to drive the NAD+ into the skin. The six patches were $300.00. I spoke with Jennifer ( 944-623-7587 ext. 5) at the center who arranged telephone consultation with Dr. Milgram. The product was fulfilled by Archway Apothecary in Covington, La. I also purchased a NAD+ nasal spray which the Doc said goes directly to the brain. To date I have used three patches and continue to daily take NR. After completing the patches I will post my results/impressions.
Best,

First, when you purchase from the nad+ treatment center in San Diego, there is a no cost telephone consultation with their Doctor. I considered the cost of approx 300 dollars for six treatment patches of 400mg each. Being in great shape and in my second year of taking Rapamycin, I have not observed any definable results from the NAD+ patches.I have also been taking NAD 250mg caps for a year or so. I am Seventy Six years old and have been heavily involved with life extension since 1980. The photo I posted here was taken last year. BTW the only negative effect from using the patches is some irritation at the site where the patch was applied. For several days I have a mild itchy arm where the patch was.

Received and am trying the second (of 30) "NUTRI-PATCH Antioxidant Topical Nutrient Skin Patches". They were $25 (Amazon) and they claim 250 mg NAD! I don't expect to notice anything having been on rapamycin for over a year like David and Metformin for the same time period, plus NR, etc.! Not sure why the patches David is trying require a prescription and these don't? Anyone know? His may work better w/ the added battery?

Dennis, I check the Amazon site for this product. I question how effective it is, the NAD in the patch appears to be the same product that is in the NR capsules, but is not NAD+. The problem being is that at our age we probably only have a small percentage of NAD+ in our bodies, so taking NR while raising NAD+ levels somewhat but it does not raise it enough to put the levels back to a meaningful level. Only taking actual NAD+ will do so. Therefore the current question is IV rather than patches the only way to raise the levels NAD+. According to a talk given by Bill Faloon, there are current studies underway that will answer this question. The patches that are used to drive NAD+ into the skin are electrophoresis patches. I doubt that just a plain patch will do much.

At least the Nutri-patches I got (antioxidant w/250mg NAD) are working properly and they are only ~$20 if you subscribe monthly so they beat PatchMD. I guess I'll try the sublingual NADH that LEF carries also, it's only 20 mg. but if it ups NAD levels I'd rather do that than even more expensive IV's (the NADH is $50/month). David M is your daily supplement/lifestyle regimen on the Web anywhere? I would like to compare since you look at least a decade younger than your photo! I've only been doing this for a year or so, so many years of way too much sugar, processed crap, etc.
