Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+)
How IT workS
NAD+, or nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, is an essential coenzyme in regulating metabolism, longevity, DNA repair, and the immune system. A deregulation of NAD+ levels is associated with signs of aging, metabolic diseases, neurodegeneration, and cancer.
_ NAD⁺ is a molecule required for cellular energy generation.
_ NAD⁺ is necessary for the function of proteins called sirtuins that help regulate DNA repair and cellular metabolism.
_ NAD⁺ decline is associated with several age-related diseases, including cardiovascular disease, neurodegenerative disease, and metabolic dysfunction.
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD⁺) is found in every living cell, serving as an essential cofactor — the compounds necessary for the activity of molecular machines (enzymes) — involved in fundamental biological processes. Initially discovered in 1906, NAD⁺ has seen a resurgence in research continually showing that NAD⁺ is critical for maintaining the health of our cells, tissues, and bodies. Preliminary studies have shown that increasing supplements of NAD+ may result in health benefits and delayed signs of aging..
