The ultimate NAD episode with Jeanne Pitre & Tom Ingoglia from the Longevity Collective and Longevity Underground. My guests today are partners in an incredible new venture with a mission to bring NAD to people everywhere including those who need it most. Their mission: To cure addiction, to optimize brain health AND to increase lifespan by 20 years.
In this episode we talk about the many different ways that NAD can be used as well as where it's precursors NR and NMN fit in. Jeanne Pitre is a Nurse, a Naturopath and a Healer who has 14 years experience as an NAD infusion specialist, so when it comes to the finer points of using NAD for whatever application she is THE one to go to!! Tom Ingoglia is a businessman with a health journey that took him from being a healthy, vibrant and successful executive to the brink of despair as a mysterious illness and subsequent efforts by the medical establishment to treat him robbed him of his health and rendered him a pain ridden shadow of himself dependant on pain medications to get through the day. After years of suffering he was finally able to reclaim his life through the discovery and use of NAD.
Between the two of them they have published research, attended and organized NAD conferences and rubbed shoulders with many of the leaders in NAD research. They have founded a not for profit - The Center for Research and Brain Health also known as The Longevity Underground, as well as The Longevity Collective an e-store selling Transdermal NAD patches & sublingual lozenges. Tom and Jeanne are on a mission and we all stand to win from what they have set out to achieve.
