NAD+ Levels and Their Influence on Aging and Cellular Energy
NAD+ Levels and Their Influence on Aging and Cellular Energy Energy and anti-aging are prime focuses in the wellness industry. Many of us want more energy and to healthfully support the aging process. In this newsletter, I’m focusing on NAD+, or nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, which is an extremely important biomolecule that influences energy and the aging process. It is a coenzyme that supports numerous biochemical reactions in the body. It supports cellular energy by assisting in the conversion of food to energy. It protects our DNA from stressors and ensures proper cellular regulation and integrity. When these processes are supported with proper NAD+ levels, then cellular aging is slowed down. NAD+ levels significantly decline with age. NAD+ is used for DNA repair and helps with the production of enzymes for the immune system, anti-inflammatory factors, and cellular regulation. The lowering of NAD+ levels has a negative impact on the body and the aging process. NAD+ is the fu
