Three optimization paths

Pick your protocol. We tune it to your biology.

All three are medically supervised and evidence-based. Your provider reviews your labs, symptoms, and goals — then picks the right protocol or combines them.

NAD+ product

NAD+

Cellular energy currency — restored at the source

NAD+ is the coenzyme that powers mitochondrial energy production and cellular repair. Levels decline with age and stress. Weekly IV infusions restore NAD+ to support sustained energy, focus, and recovery.

$200/mo

weekly IV protocol

Best for: Patients with persistent fatigue, brain fog, or wanting cognitive performance support

What it is
Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide — the master coenzyme for mitochondrial function. Administered via slow IV infusion under medical supervision.
Dosing
500–1,000 mg IV, once weekly. Some patients start with a loading protocol; your provider adjusts based on response.
Timeline
Most patients report shifts in energy and mental clarity within 2–4 weeks. Continued benefit over 8–12 weeks. Sustained protocols are common.
Safety: Administered by licensed providers in clinic. Common mild side effects: flushing, transient chest tightness during infusion (slowed by adjusting drip rate), mild headache. Serious adverse events are rare when properly administered.
Glutathione product

Glutathione

The master antioxidant — your cellular shield

Glutathione is the body’s primary antioxidant, neutralizing free radicals and supporting detoxification pathways in the liver. Levels deplete with stress, age, and chronic inflammation. IV protocols restore reserves directly.

from$90/mo

weekly IV protocol

Best for: Patients with high oxidative load — chronic stress, inflammation, or aggressive training

What it is
L-glutathione — a tripeptide of cysteine, glutamic acid, and glycine. Administered IV because oral bioavailability is limited.
Dosing
1,000–2,000 mg IV, once weekly. Your provider may add other co-factors based on labs.
Timeline
Skin clarity and energy shifts often noticed within 4–6 weeks. Biomarker improvements (RBC glutathione) measurable at 8–12 weeks.
Safety: Generally well-tolerated. Mild side effects: rare allergic reaction (especially in sulfite-sensitive patients — your provider screens for this), occasional injection site discomfort. Medically supervised.
Sermorelin product

Sermorelin

Growth hormone optimization — without exogenous HGH

A growth-hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) analog that signals your pituitary to produce more of your own growth hormone. Used to support recovery, sleep quality, lean mass, and metabolic health.

$150/mo

daily subcutaneous peptide

Best for: Adults wanting GH-axis support without the risks of exogenous HGH

What it is
A 29-amino-acid peptide that mimics natural GHRH. Stimulates the pituitary to produce GH in a physiologic pulse pattern.
Dosing
0.1–0.2 mg subcutaneous injection once daily, usually before bed when natural GH pulses peak.
Timeline
Sleep quality often improves within 2–3 weeks. Recovery and body composition changes typically emerge over 8–12 weeks. Labs reviewed at 12 weeks.
Safety: Generally well-tolerated. Common mild side effects: transient injection site reactions, occasional flushing or headache. Contraindicated in active malignancy. Required labs are included — your provider reviews them before and during the protocol.

Not sure which is right for you? Every plan starts with a $50 consultation. Your provider reviews symptoms, labs, and goals — then recommends the right protocol, solo or combined.

Performance Bottlenecks

Even disciplined, health-conscious professionals hit biological limits. Here are the three critical gaps we address.

Cellular Energy Decline

NAD+ levels drop 50% by age 50, limiting mitochondrial ATP production and leaving you fatigued even after rest.

Affects: Energy, Endurance, Recovery

Oxidative Stress Load

High mental, physical, and environmental stress depletes glutathione, your body's master antioxidant, accelerating cellular aging.

Affects: Immunity, Inflammation, Aging

Growth Hormone Suppression

Sleep fragmentation and chronic stress reduce GH secretion, compromising muscle, bone density, and tissue repair.

Affects: Muscle, Recovery, Sleep

Three Optimization Protocols

Each designed to address a specific bottleneck. Medically supervised. Evidence-based. Personalized to your biology.

Your Optimization Journey

Four integrated steps from assessment to sustained performance.

1

Assessment

30-minute telehealth consultation. We evaluate your performance goals, medical history, and current biomarkers.

2

Labs & Biomarkers

Baseline serum work, RBC glutathione, NAD+ levels, cortisol, HGH. We establish your performance baseline.

3

Custom Protocol

Based on your labs and goals, we personalize dosing, timing, and combinations. Medically supervised.

4

Ongoing Optimization

Monthly follow-up labs, provider check-ins, protocol adjustments. Progress measured, results tracked.

The Science Behind Optimization

Each protocol targets specific bottlenecks in cellular function. Evidence-based. Mechanism-validated.

The Master Antioxidant

Glutathione is your body's primary defense against oxidative stress. It recycles other antioxidants and binds to toxins for removal. High-dose IV delivery bypasses GI absorption limits, restoring cellular GSH levels.

Ref: FASEB J. 2019

Cellular Energy Currency

NAD+ is essential for mitochondrial ATP production and the sirtuin pathway (longevity genes). Levels decline with age, stress, and poor sleep. IV replenishment restores energy production and DNA repair efficiency.

Ref: Cell Metab. 2021

Growth Hormone Optimization

Sermorelin is a GHRH analog that stimulates your pituitary to increase GH secretion naturally. Unlike synthetic HGH, it maintains physiologic feedback loops. Supports muscle, bone, immune, and sleep recovery.

Ref: J. Clin. Endocrinol. 2020

Who This Is For

If you're serious about performance, you'll recognize yourself here.

The Executive

You manage complex decisions daily. Brain fog is a liability. You want sharper cognition, steadier energy through long days, and faster recovery from jet lag and stress.

  • Cognitive clarity under pressure
  • Sustained energy (no 3pm crash)
  • Sleep & jet lag recovery

The Athlete

You push your body hard. Faster recovery means more training, less downtime. You want reduced inflammation, preserved muscle, and enhanced endurance at your age.

  • Faster post-workout recovery
  • Reduced inflammation & soreness
  • Muscle preservation & growth

The Founder

You operate at the edge of burnout. Deep sleep quality is rare. You need resilience, sustained focus, and the ability to sleep despite stress and irregular schedules.

  • Peak performance under pressure
  • Sleep quality (no pills)
  • Stress resilience & recovery

Available in-person in Royal Oak, MI or via telehealth across Michigan. NuHealth is the only provider offering medically supervised performance optimization with both local and virtual options.

Frequently Asked Questions

A performance optimization protocol is a medically supervised regimen of evidence-based interventions designed to address specific biological bottlenecks. Rather than treating disease, we optimize cellular function in healthy adults through personalized combinations of IV infusions and peptide therapy, all monitored via biomarker tracking.
Each protocol targets a complementary pathway. Glutathione addresses oxidative stress and immune function. NAD+ restores mitochondrial energy and cellular repair. Sermorelin optimizes growth hormone for recovery, muscle, and sleep. Together, they create a synergistic effect. Your provider customizes the combination based on your labs and goals.
Results vary by individual. Some patients report improvements in energy and focus within 2-3 weeks. Recovery benefits typically emerge by week 4-6. Biomarker changes (NAD+, glutathione, HGH) become measurable at 6-8 weeks. Most dramatic improvements occur in months 2-4 as protocols are refined based on follow-up labs.
All protocols are delivered under medical supervision. Most patients tolerate them well. Common, mild side effects include transient injection site reactions (Sermorelin), mild flushing or metallic taste (IV protocols), and temporary fatigue in the first 24-48 hours. Serious adverse events are rare when prescribed appropriately. Your provider screens for contraindications.
Absolutely. Many patients combine optimization protocols with hormone therapy, weight management, or nutrition coaching. Your provider coordinates care across all programs to ensure safety and synergy.
