NAD+ 500mg

NAD+ 500mg — research compound vial

The coenzyme at the center of longevity research. Found in every cell, NAD+ powers the enzyme families most associated with healthy aging, DNA repair, and cellular energy — and declines significantly with age.

How It Works

The Target

Over 500 enzymatic reactions throughout the body. NAD+ is a coenzyme essential for energy metabolism, DNA repair, and cellular signaling — and it declines substantially with age.

The Mechanism

Functions as both an electron carrier (shuttling electrons in energy production pathways) and a substrate consumed by sirtuins (SIRT1-7) for gene silencing and DNA repair, PARPs for DNA damage response, and CD38 for immune signaling. When NAD+ levels drop, these repair and maintenance systems slow down.

Why It Matters

NAD+ decline is now considered a hallmark of aging. Clinical trials of NAD+ precursors (NR, NMN) have shown they can safely elevate blood NAD+ levels in humans, with ongoing research into downstream effects on metabolism, cognition, and cardiovascular function.
