CELLULAR ENERGY

NAD+

Options centered around cellular energy production, metabolic function, resilience, recovery and healthy aging.

ANTIOXIDANT + CELLULAR SUPPORT

Glutathione

Support focused on antioxidant status, oxidative balance, cellular protection and overall wellness.

METABOLIC + ENERGY SUPPORT

A complementary option designed around nutrient support, energy metabolism and metabolic wellness.

NAD+
For cellular energy + resilience + healthy aging
NAD+ is a naturally occurring coenzyme involved in cellular energy production and numerous metabolic processes. NAD+ levels can change with age and other physiologic factors. Physician managed NAD+ therapy may be considered as part of a broader strategy focused on cellular wellness, recovery and healthy aging.
WHY CHOOSE NAD+

• Cellular energy support
• Metabolic and mitochondrial function
• Recovery and resilience goals
• Healthy aging support
• May complement a broader wellness strategy
• Physician guided options based on individual needs

WHAT MAKES NAD+ DIFFERENT?
​Dual GIP + GLP-1 Support

NAD+ works at the cellular level as an essential coenzyme involved in energy metabolism, mitochondrial function, cellular signaling, and repair processes. Rather than acting as a stimulant, NAD+ support is designed around the cellular pathways the body uses to produce and manage energy.

• Supports cellular energy metabolism
• Plays an essential role in mitochondrial function
• Involved in cellular repair and signaling pathways
• Supports metabolic resilience and recovery
• NAD+ availability naturally changes with age
• Fits well within a broader healthy aging and cellular wellness strategy

COMMON GOALS WE EXPLORE: Cellular Energy • Recovery • Resilience • Metabolic Wellness • Healthy Aging

COMPARE BEFORE YOU CHOOSE

 

NAD+ may be the better fit when your primary goals center on cellular energy, mitochondrial function, metabolic resilience, recovery, and healthy aging. If antioxidant defense, oxidative balance, and cellular protection are higher priorities, compare with Glutathione.

Choose the option that most closely matches your goals. Prescription therapies require medical intake and approval through Altro's licensed clinical team before fulfillment. Your clinician may recommend a different option based on your health history, medications or medical eligibility.

GLUTATHIONE
For antioxidant support + cellular wellness
Glutathione is an antioxidant naturally produced by the body and involved in cellular defense and redox balance. Support may be considered when the goal is antioxidant status, cellular wellness, recovery or broader healthy aging support.
WHY CHOOSE GLUTATHIONE

• Skin quality and healthy-aging support are priorities
• You want skin support combined with broader tissue recovery
• Connective-tissue health and physical recovery are also goals
• You prefer a multi-peptide approach rather than GHK-Cu alone
• You want one physician-managed formulation combining three complementary peptides

WHAT MAKES GLUTATHIONE DIFFERENT?
​Dual GIP + GLP-1 Support

Glutathione is one of the body’s primary endogenous antioxidants and plays an important role in cellular defense, oxidative balance, detoxification pathways, and immune function. Rather than directly increasing energy, glutathione support focuses on protecting the cellular environment in which healthy energy production and recovery occur.

​

• Powerful endogenous antioxidant
• Supports cellular defense against oxidative stress
• Participates in normal detoxification pathways
• Helps maintain healthy redox balance
• Supports immune and cellular function
• Complements NAD+ and other cellular wellness strategies

COMMON GOALS WE EXPLORE: Antioxidant Support • Cellular Protection • Oxidative Balance • Detoxification Support • Recovery • Healthy Aging

COMPARE BEFORE YOU CHOOSE

 

Glutathione may be the better fit when your primary goals center on antioxidant support, oxidative balance, cellular protection, and detoxification pathways. If cellular energy, mitochondrial function, and metabolic resilience are higher priorities, compare with NAD+.

LIPO-MINI
For metabolic nutrient support + energy
Lipo-Mino is a compounded injectable blend of lipotropic nutrients, amino acids and B vitamins designed to provide nutritional support for normal energy production and fat metabolism. Unlike GLP-1 medications or peptide therapies, Lipo-Mino does not primarily suppress appetite or target growth hormone or mitochondrial peptide pathways. It is best considered a supportive option that may be used alone or alongside a broader weight or metabolic wellness plan.
WHY CHOOSE LIPO-MINI

• You want nutritional support for energy and metabolism
• Supporting normal fat metabolism is part of your overall goal
• You want a supportive option rather than a peptide therapy
• You are already working on nutrition, movement and metabolic health
• You want something that may complement a broader weight-management plan

WHAT MAKES LIPO-MINI DIFFERENT?

NOT A PEPTIDE OR GLP-1 - Lipo-Mino is a combination of nutrients and amino acids rather than a peptide or appetite-regulating medication.

​

LIPOTROPIC SUPPORT - Its ingredients are commonly used to support pathways involved in normal fat metabolism and liver function.

 

ENERGY SUPPORT - B vitamins and other nutrients support normal cellular energy production, making this option more focused on nutritional and metabolic support than appetite control.

​

SUPPORTIVE, NOT PRIMARY WEIGHT-LOSS THERAPY - Lipo-Mino is best viewed as an adjunct to nutrition, movement and other appropriate therapies rather than a stand-alone treatment for significant weight loss.

COMMON GOALS WE EXPLORE: Metabolic Nutrient Support • Energy • Healthy Fat Metabolism • Metabolic Wellness • Weight-Management Support

COMPARE BEFORE YOU CHOOSE

 

Choose Lipo-Mino when you want supportive metabolic nutrients and energy support rather than a therapy primarily directed at appetite, weight loss or mitochondrial function. If weight loss, hunger, cravings or food noise are the primary concerns, compare Tirzepatide or Semaglutide. If mitochondrial function, cellular energy or physical resilience are the bigger goals, compare SS-31 or MOTS-c. Lipo-Mino may also be considered as a supportive addition to a broader weight or metabolic program rather than an alternative to those therapies.

Choose the option that most closely matches your goals. Prescription therapies require medical intake and approval through Altro's licensed clinical team before fulfillment. Your clinician may recommend a different option based on your health history, medications or medical eligibility.
