INSIGHT

NAD's Importance

  • NAD is vital for energy production and activates sirtuins, defensive enzymes.
  • NAD levels decline with age, increasing vulnerability to aging and related diseases.
ADVICE

Using NR

  • Consider NR, a well-studied NAD booster with minimal side effects.
  • Consult your physician before starting any new supplements.
INSIGHT

NMN vs. NR

  • NMN seems more effective than NR at raising NAD levels, possibly due to its phosphate group.
  • The closer the supplement is structurally to NAD, the better it works.
