WHAT IS NAD?

 "NAD⁺, which stands for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, is an essential and abundant molecule found in a wide range of organisms, from single-cell bacteria to complex multicellular ones like primates. It serves as a linchpin in the operation of cellular powerhouses known as mitochondria. Without NAD⁺, our journey toward mortality would accelerate significantly. This molecule not only facilitates the conversion of food into energy but also plays a pivotal role in preserving DNA integrity and ensuring the optimal functioning of cells, safeguarding our bodies against the effects of aging and disease." 

It is known that our NAD+ levels decrease over time as we age. NAD+ drops by up to 50% in humans between our 40s to 60s. Out of all the factors that require NAD+, aging is probably the most significant and least avoidable. Simply put, our cells start dying faster than we can replace them so using a form of NAD (NADH) is a powerful antioxidant that helps mops up free radicals and ensures the body is against the decline of aging.
