NAD+ and Healthy Ageing
Why NAD+ Matters as We Age
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is a vital molecule found in all living cells. It plays a central role in energy metabolism, DNA repair, and cellular maintenance. As part of normal ageing, NAD+ levels naturally decline, and factors such as chronic stress, poor diet, obesity, and illness may accelerate this process.
Reduced NAD+ availability can affect cellular energy production, limit the body’s ability to repair DNA damage, and influence age-related changes in metabolism and overall vitality.
What is NMN?
Nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) is a naturally occurring compound that serves as a precursor to NAD+. Within the body, NMN is converted into NAD+, helping replenish cellular levels. NMN has gained attention for its role in supporting energy metabolism and cellular repair pathways associated with healthy ageing.
How NAD+ Supports Your Body
- Cellular energy production
NAD+ is essential for mitochondrial function, where it helps convert nutrients into usable cellular energy needed for daily activity. - DNA repair and cellular maintenance
NAD+ supports enzymes involved in repairing damaged DNA. Maintaining DNA integrity is important for long-term cellular health and normal ageing processes. - Age-related cellular regulation
NAD+ activates sirtuins—proteins involved in regulating metabolism, mitochondrial function, stress responses, and cellular longevity. - Brain and nervous system support
Adequate NAD+ levels contribute to neuronal energy metabolism and may support cognitive function by helping maintain healthy brain cells and reducing oxidative stress. - Antioxidant defence
NAD+ is involved in regenerating glutathione, one of the body’s key antioxidants, which helps protect cells from oxidative damage.
Supporting NAD+ levels naturally
The body can synthesize NAD+ from dietary vitamin B3 compounds, including nicotinamide (NAM), nicotinic acid, and NMN. These compounds participate in the NAD+ “salvage pathway,” the primary route by which cells maintain NAD+ levels.
- Nicotinamide (NAM)
A commonly studied NAD+ precursor and is efficiently recycled within the body to form NAD+. It plays a key role in maintaining cellular NAD+ pools. - NMN
Another precursor that contributes to NAD+ production and is often discussed in the context of cellular ageing and metabolic health.
