NAD+
Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide
Central cellular coenzyme at the heart of energy and longevity research
How it works
NAD+ is a coenzyme central to energy metabolism (redox reactions in the mitochondria) and a required substrate for sirtuins and PARP enzymes involved in DNA repair and gene regulation. Cellular NAD+ declines with age, a focus of longevity science.
What the research explores
In published research, NAD+ has been studied in connection with the following. These describe findings reported in the literature — not approved uses, claims, or outcomes to expect.
- Drives mitochondrial energy (redox) reactions
- Substrate for sirtuin longevity enzymes
- Studied for age-related metabolic decline
- Investigated for cellular DNA-repair pathways
- Researched for energy and cognitive markers
Restoring NAD+ levels is one of the most actively investigated strategies in aging biology, with research linking NAD+ availability to mitochondrial function and sirtuin activity.
Adverse events & gaps
Endogenous coenzyme. Infusion-related flushing/discomfort most commonly reported; a buffered form is offered to improve tolerability.
