The Best Way to Boost NAD+: Supplements vs. Diet (webinar recording)

The pros and cons of all the NAD+ supplements and are the ways to boost NAD+ naturally with diet and lifestyle?

NAD+ is an essential cofactor for hundreds of enzymes, as well as the purported anti-aging activities of sirtuins. Raising NAD+ levels can extend lifespan and rejuvenate health in many animals, but what about humans? The four main NAD+-boosting supplements on the market are nicotinamide riboside (NR), nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN), nicotinic acid (NA), and nicotinamide (NAM). In this two-hour webinar, I covered the pros and cons of each of the four primary supplements, discussed the other five (NAD, NADH, NMNH, NRH, and tryptophan), and outlined three ways to naturally boost NAD levels without supplements.

All of these individual videos will eventually be added to NutritionFacts.org, but I wanted to share this full webinar with you, including the 30-minute Q&A at the end, as soon as I could.
