“Even patients in their twenties have symptoms of brain fog, fatigue, chronic inflammation, and chronic infection post-Covid,” Khan says. In her clinical experience, some report improvements in energy, mental clarity, migraines, and circadian disruption after using NAD-related therapies, especially during periods of high physical or cognitive stress. “I have a lot of fitness enthusiasts [as…
