NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide)
Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD+) is a cellular coenzyme that is responsible for turning the food you eat into usable energy.
NAD+ also plays a major role in DNA repair, cellular processes, and immune system function.
Even though the body produces NAD naturally, the production of NAD declines as you age.
That means the older you get, the harder it is for your body to keep you healthy and process nutrients into energy. That’s why you feel more sluggish, and your risk of illness and injury increases.
Benefits of NAD+ for Weight Loss
Boosts Your Metabolism
NAD+ activates special proteins called sirtuins. These are like cellular managers that tell your body to:
- burn more fat
- use energy more efficiently
- increase mitochondrial function (aka better energy production)
With higher NAD+ levels, your metabolism runs faster. This makes it easier for your body to burn calories.
Better Blood Sugar Control
NAD+ is also involved in insulin sensitivity and glucose metabolism. When your cells handle sugar well:
- you’re less likely to store extra sugar as fat
- your cravings and energy crashes decrease
- you can manage your weight better
Benefits of NAD+ for Anti-Aging
NAD+ keeps cells’ mitochondria functioning efficiently and also helps with DNA repair and overall cellular health.
- Indirectly related to collagen production
- Helps maintain skin cell health
- Can help repair damage from UV exposure and other environmental pollutants
- Higher levels of NAD in the body can help promote cell reparation, supporting skin firmness
