NAD+: A Quantum Leap in Biohacking – Dr. Gregory Kelly : 1122
The Human Upgrade with Dave Asprey
NAD IVs were first used to treat alcoholism - sorting mechanism
Sirtuins play a crucial role in enhancing longevity and cognitive performance by elevating NAD levels through various pathways. NAD molecules are utilized by enzymes like the PARP family and need to be consistently replenished due to being consumed multiple times in a day. The consumption of NAD is higher in older individuals due to certain pathways utilizing it more, leaving others deprived. Increasing NAD levels can lead to anti-aging benefits and improved mitochondrial function. Initially used for alcoholism, NAD IVs can enhance energy levels in cells, potentially reducing the urge for addictive substances. While IVs directly provide NAD, oral methods are becoming as effective by targeting multiple pathways and are more cost-effective compared to IV treatments.
