NAD levels decline over time because NAD+ is used and CONSUMED as a substrate by SIRTUINS, DNA-Repair enzymes and aggressively by another enzyme called CD38 for calcium balancing and immune function response. Inflammatory cytokines released by the immune system causes the production of CD38.

The problem is further exacerbated, at least in theory by senescent cells, cells that can no longer divide but increasingly causes the release of even more inflammatory cytokines and more CD38 expression. Eventually, more NAD gets consumed than the ability to replenish the supply, leading to the over-all decline that is experienced with aging.

It is now evident that supporting the NAD pool is vital for promoting good health & wellness and a healthy Immune System, especially as we age. Take Action – Try NMN today!

NAD is essential for the functions that enable the body to sustain life. Without NAD we cannot survive. There are three fundamental functions that require NAD+ which are critical for the normal operation of all living cells. First, NAD+ is responsible for the production of ATP, the chemical energy necessary to sustain life.

For example, turning food into energy requires NAD+. Secondly, SIRTUINS, the so-called “longevity-genes” do not work without NAD+. Thirdly, NAD+ is used for the repair of broken DNA strands. This maintains the integrity of the genetic code by protecting against various mutations of which cancerous growth is just one.
