NAD Test (prepaid)
What is Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (N.A.D)?
NAD is a coenzyme found in all living cells. It plays a crucial role in cellular metabolism, especially in processes like energy production and DNA repair.
Lower NAD levels may indicate potential health issues like:
- Reduced energy production: Leading to fatigue and decreased stamina.
- Impaired DNA repair: Increasing the risk of cellular damage and ageing.
- Neurodegenerative disorders: Linked to conditions like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's.
What's included
Age-related NAD⁺ decline refers to the natural reduction in NAD⁺ levels as people get older. Research shows that individuals may start with different baseline NAD⁺ levels, but these differences tend to narrow over time. Although still an emerging area of study, it offers valuable insights into the ageing process and potential future therapies.
NAD does not occur directly in food. However, the building blocks for NAD, which are vitamins and amino acids, can be found in various foods. These building blocks are then absorbed by the body and converted into NAD through metabolic processes.
