This article describes how and why NAD (Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) and the so called “NAD-boosting molecules” (such as niacin, niacinamide, nicotinamide riboside, nicotinamide mononucleotide) are so important for human health and metabolism.
- “…It is exciting to imagine an NAD+ booster being tested in humans for the ability to increase vitality, reduce all causes of mortality, and extend healthy lifespan. If that happens, more than the discoverers of NAD+ could ever have imagined, NAD+ would truly be the molecule of life". (bold added)
