Videos Mentioning NAD
222 ‒ How nutrition impacts longevity | Matt Kaeberlein, Ph.D.
Peter Attia MD
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, discussed alongside NMN as a geroprotective molecule.
216 - Metabolomics, NAD+, and cancer metabolism | Josh Rabinowitz, M.D., Ph.D.
Peter Attia MD
A famous cofactor in the electron transport chain, crucial for energy generation. Its levels decline with aging, but the change is subtle (10-20% reduction).

Peter Attia MD
A molecule for which Peter Attia is increasingly unoptimistic about its precursors (NR and NMN) as keys to longevity for normal or normally aging individuals, despite their ability to increase NAD+ levels.

Tim Ferriss
A vital cofactor for metabolic enzymes, essential for mitochondrial energy production. Levels increase during fasting and decrease with aging and chronic inflammation. Supplemental B3 forms can increase its levels.

Peter Attia MD
A coenzyme crucial in glycolysis and redox status. Its cellular levels decrease with aging, leading to a debate about the efficacy and potential risks of supplementation with precursors like NR and NMN, especially concerning cancer growth.
