Muscular Function
NAD is critical to the muscular processes. Mitochondrial diseases, dystrophies, myopophies are associated with low NAD levels. NAD repletion improves muscular function in mice. Increasing levels of NAD supports the body’s normal muscular function including repair.
Mental Clarity
NAD is critical to the processes of mental clarity. NAD levels dropping with age are associated with memory loss. In studies of mice with Alzheimers disease, increased NAD levels improved memory after even one week. Increasing NAD levels supports the body’s processes of recalling memory and clear thinking.
Anti Aging
NAD is critical to the process of DNA repair, and makes old tissues look young again. Repairing DNA halts a number of degenerative processes meaning longer life. Increasing NAD levels supports the body to maintain condition and to resist damage to DNA.
Skin Appearance
Research suggest that depleted NAD in skin cells is associated with UV sensitivity, skin cell death, DNA damage (leading to moles, freckles, blemishes, etc.), and even skin cancer. Increasing NAD levels supports the body’s normal processes of maintaining healthy skin.
Libido
Research in animals showed NAD increase rescued female fertility, that old animals became fertile again. In humans some trial participants mentioned increase in libido, we are not sure whether it is to do with increase of mental activity overall or increased energy. Try it!
Energy Levels
Research showed that boosting NAD levels in older mice increase stamina and endurance by up to 80%. Studies have shown enhanced energy metabolism and improved production of ATP due to NAD being an integral part of ATP production. ATP is the ‘energy carrying’ component in cells of all living things. Increasing NAD levels as we age supports the body’s natural energy systems.
