NAD+ Injections Guard Against Heart Failure in Rats and Beagles

“This study, involving rat and beagle MI-induced HF models, indicated that NAD+ significantly improves myocardial hypertrophy and cardiac function, inhibits myocardial fibrosis, and reduces the myocardial infarction rate.”

NR Regulates the Cardiac Internal Clock of Aged Mice

Circadian rhythm is your body’s internal clock that permits anticipation of daily patterns, regulating when it’s time to sleep, wake up, eat, and digest. This study evaluated the effects of NR supplementation on age-related changes in the heart’s circadian rhythm.

Evidence for the Health Effects of Hesperidin

Hesperidin exhibits anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activity, protecting cells from two key contributors to the onset of age-related and chronic diseases: inflammation and oxidative stress.

NMN Reduces Heart Failure and Extends Lifespan in Mice

“These results suggest that NMN treatment functionally ameliorated or prevented exacerbation of heart failure in p32 cardiomyocyte–specific knockout mice, thereby prolonging their lifespan.”

NMN Improves Blood Pressure in Humans with Hypertension

“Overall, the present study may shed new light on novel strategies in which NAD+ boosting therapy, including NMN supplement and CD38 inhibition, may turn out to be a promising therapeutic measure to treat patients with hypertension.”

The Role of Resveratrol in Healthy Aging and Metabolism

More than  240 clinical trials have been conducted to understand the potential health effects of Resveratrol. Evidence suggests Resveratrol may enhance longevity, heart health, glucose and fat metabolism, and bone health.
