NMN and NR Alleviate Ovarian Aging in Rats

A recent study investigated the effects of NMN and NR on ovary health and function in middle-aged rats. “This study reveals that NMN alone or NR alone can rebalance mitochondrial dynamics by decreasing excessive fission in middle-aged rat ovaries, thus alleviating mitochondrial stress and correcting aging-induced folliculogenesis abnormalities.” This graph shows the number of healthy […]

NAD+ is the Transport Molecule Used by the Body, Not Nicotinamide Riboside

Restoring NAD+ levels in older animals and humans is at the center of efforts to slow or even stop the effects of aging. One method being researched is providing supplements  such as Nicotinamide Riboside (NR) that the body can use to create NAD+. The chart above is from this study published in August 2019 by […]

Increased NAD+ in Bloodstream of Nursing Mice Results in Healthier, Stronger, Smarter Offspring

This study fed lactating mice Nicotinamide Riboside (NR) in chow for 21 days after birth of offspring to measure the effect on the health of their pups who did not receive any NR. After 21 days, the pups were removed from the mothers and fed normal chow. These improvements in health and behavior persisted for […]
