Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD+) is a fundamental coenzyme found in all living cells, essential for cellular energy production via the electron transport chain. NAD+ levels decline with age — up to 50% by middle age — and this decline is linked to cellular energy deficits and reduced sirtuin enzyme activity. Research into NAD+ replenishment has expanded rapidly, with studies across aging biology, neuroprotection, metabolic health, and DNA repair. Palmetto Peptides supplies research-grade NAD+ at 500mg for comprehensive laboratory research protocols.
Q: Why does NAD+ matter in aging research?
A: NAD+ levels decline up to 50% by middle age. This decline correlates with reduced sirtuin activity (key longevity enzymes), impaired mitochondrial function, and accumulating cellular damage — all hallmarks of biological aging.
Q: How does NAD+ relate to sirtuins?
A: Sirtuins are NAD+-dependent enzymes that regulate gene expression, stress responses, and metabolic pathways. Without sufficient NAD+, sirtuins cannot function — making NAD+ essential for their research.
Q: What distinguishes research-grade NAD+?
A: Purity, stability, and accurate quantification. Palmetto Peptides NAD+ is ≥98% pure with full COA documentation, ensuring reliable results in sensitive biochemical assays.
