Earlier this month, Nestlé Health Science (a subsidiary of Nestlé) launched a new site to track the latest research on aging. One key site focus is the role NAD decline plays in the aging process. In the very short video embedded below, Nestle does a good job of explaining NAD:

Nestlé Health on NAD

“As you get older, you notice you tire more easily.

You’re starting to feel you don’t have enough energy to get through the day.

This loss of energy is one of the signs of Age-Associated Cellular Decline, or AACD.

Deep inside your body, important natural processes are becoming less efficient, and this is happening cell by cell.

One of these processes is your cells’ natural ability to maintain NAD+ levels.

Think of NAD+ as a master energizer that helps power vital processes inside your cells, such as your mitochondria’s capacity to transform food into energy that fuels your whole body from morning to night.

But as you age your body no longer produces enough NAD+.

As levels of NAD+ decline, your cells don’t have the same resources they once did to produce the energy your body needs to keep you going throughout the day.

Proper diet and ordinary supplements may help, but they are often not enough to replenish NAD+ levels.

That is why scientists are studying new specialized cellular nutrients that work with your body’s natural processes to restore NAD+ levels, helping your cells stay energized as you age.”
