In today’s episode of Daily Value, we look at new research that highlights how Nicotinamide Riboside supplementation, for the first time, was shown to elevate NAD+ levels in the brain, with potential implications for cognitive health and longevity.

Episode Talking Points:
*Mechanisms through which NAD+ supports brain health, including its role in DNA repair, energy production, and neuroprotection.
*Key findings from a recent study showing a 16% average increase in cerebral NAD+ levels just hours after NR supplementation.
*The potential for NR supplementation to help protect against age-related cognitive slowdown and support overall brain health.
