NAD+ is nicotinamidonenine dinucleotide and is the coenzymatic active form of vitamin B3. It is a coenzyme consisting of adenine and nicotinamide, which is involved in energy transport in the mitochondria. This particular molecule has shown several beneficial pharmacological activities in preclinical studies that suggest its potential therapeutic use. Without it, cells could not produce sufficient energy, leading to cell death. In addition, it plays a key role in DNA repair and regulation of ageing processes.
Why is it worth?
• support of ATP energy production at the mitochondrial level
• the so-called elixir of youth
• essential for the production of glutathione, the most powerful antioxidant
• supports regeneration and increases vitality levels
• improves insulin sensitivity
• improves plasma lipid levels
• inhibits age-related weight gain
• reduces the risk of Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease, among others
• protects the heart and nervous system
• alleviates degeneration of skin cells
• reverses neuronal degeneration
NAD+ is considered the elixir of youth - its levels decline with age, in the case of oxidative stress, skin damage or hypoxia, or during chronic conditions such as metabolic diseases.
Natural ways to increase NAD+ levels include fasting, regular physical activity, an appropriate diurnal rhythm and a diet rich in antioxidants and polyphenols - the so-called sirtuin diet.
NAD+ supports metabolism and helps with weight management. The role of NAD in blood sugar regulation may be crucial for people with diabetes and metabolic problems. By improving mitochondrial function, it supports efficient calorie burning and the maintenance of a healthy body weight.
