Coenzyme Q10 and Migraine Relief

A clinical trial examined Coenzyme Q10’s (CoQ10’s) effects on episodic migraines in women, finding significant reductions in migraine frequency, duration, severity. CoQ10 also reduced the levels of TNF-ɑ and CGRP, a peptide linked to migraines that promotes inflammation and pain signaling. 

Anti-Aging Effects of NMN – Human Clinical Trials Review

Resveratrol supplementation effectively protected mice against age-related muscle mass loss, heart cell enlargement, and motor dysfunction.

Study Shows Resveratrol Preserves Muscle Health in Aged Mice

Resveratrol supplementation effectively protected mice against age-related muscle mass loss, heart cell enlargement, and motor dysfunction.

Coenzyme Q10 in Aging, Heart Health, and Fertility

CoQ10 may extend its potential benefits beyond its traditional role in energy production. Emerging research suggests it could provide cardioprotective effects and reduce migraine symptoms. Moreover, its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties have shown promise in addressing age-related disorders and various diseases.

Study Shows NMN Protects Against Lung Damage in Mice

Oral administration of NMN (500 mg/kg) effectively preserved NAD+ tissue and plasma levels during PM exposure and protected against pulmonary fibrosis in mice.

Study Finds Liposomal Berberine Improves Glucose, Lipids, and Inflammation in Rats

“In an animal model of type 2 diabetes, the intragastric delivery of Lip-BBR via liposomes exhibited remarkable protective effects against hepatic tissue damage, steatosis, inflammation, insulin resistance, and hepatocellular enzyme imbalance.”

The Comprehensive Effects of Berberine for Metabolic Health

NAD+ and the Hallmarks of Aging Series – Part 8: Stem Cell Exhaustion

Stem cells – the source of tissue homeostasis In human tissue, there are various highly differentiated cells specialized to perform distinct functions. For example, there are red blood cells for oxygen delivery, muscle cells for movement, neural cells for signal transduction, etc.  These cells are vital for life but they are also prone to various […]

NAD+ Supplements Regulate Energy Metabolism via the Hypothalamus

Exogenous nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide regulates energy metabolism via hypothalamic Connexin 43. This study shows that administration of 1 mg/kg of LABELED NAD+ crosses the blood brain barrier to enter the hypothalamus INTACT, increases NAD+ levels, reduces hunger and weight gain, and increases energy expenditure and fat burning in mice. This study shows that increased NAD+ […]
