Model: C57BL/6J mice 
Dosage: Eating only within an 8-hour window and fasting for 16 hours (~20% caloric deficit may be required)

Restricting food intake for 16 hours a day improves the health of female mice and moderately prolongs the life of male mice.

Aging &amp; Longevity

Model: Six adults who received intravenous NAD+ and eight adults who received intravenous NR
Dosage: 500 mg of intravenous NAD+ or 500 mg of intravenous NR daily for four consecutive days

Pilot Human Study Supports Safety of NAD+ IV and NR IV Infusions

A Stanford study supports the short-term safety of NAD+ and NR infusion therapies, and participants who received NR infusions exhibited significantly lower HbA1c (a blood test that reflects average blood sugar over two to three months).

A Stanford human trial provides the first data supporting the safety of NAD+ IV and NR IV therapies.

Model: Old male mice
Dosage: 100 mg/kg/day of ALA administered in drinking water

Restoring the naturally occurring antioxidant, alpha-lipoic acid (ALA), to the gut wall rejuvenates stem cells and counters age-related gut degeneration in mice and human models.

Participants: Prefrail older adults
Dosage: 50 mg/day of losartan for at least 8 weeks

Losartan, a common blood pressure medication, increases the survival rate of mice and improves the metabolic outlook of pre-frail older adults.
