From the Research
I strongly advise against adding glutathione premix injection at 2000 mg to an NAD+ injection without proper medical supervision. The combination of these two compounds could potentially alter their stability, efficacy, and safety profile, leading to adverse reactions or reduced effectiveness. Glutathione is a tripeptide antioxidant, while NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a coenzyme involved in metabolic processes. The high concentration of glutathione (2000 mg) could potentially cause chemical interactions with NAD+, affecting the pH or creating precipitates.
According to a recent study 1, supplementing GlyNAC (a combination of glycine and N-acetylcysteine) in older adults improved glutathione deficiency, oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, inflammation, physical function, and aging hallmarks. However, this study does not support the combination of glutathione with NAD+ injections.
Another study 2 found that oral glutathione supplementation increased body stores of glutathione in healthy adults, but this does not necessarily apply to injectable forms or combinations with other compounds like NAD+.
The potential risks of improper mixing or administration of injectable compounds, including infection, embolism, or adverse reactions, outweigh any potential benefits of combining glutathione and NAD+ injections. It is crucial to consult with a healthcare provider before combining any injectable medications or supplements, as they can properly assess compatibility, appropriate dosing, and individual health needs.
Some key points to consider:
- Glutathione and NAD+ have different properties and optimal storage conditions
- High concentrations of glutathione could cause chemical interactions with NAD+
- Improper mixing or administration of injectable compounds carries significant risks
- Consultation with a healthcare provider is essential before combining injectable medications or supplements
