Model: Male C57BL/6J (B6) mice (15 months old at the start of treatment)
Dosage: Approximately 5 mg/kg/day of S-1-propenyl-L-cysteine (S1PC) was administered orally for 8 months, from 15 to 23 months of age. S1PC was given in chow containing 0.0025% S1PC, with a second experiment using drinking water to confirm the findings.

Researchers found that a compound found in garlic supports healthier muscle aging by boosting cellular defenses linked to longevity and maintaining physical performance.

NAD+ Precursors: Unlocking the Fountain of Youth by Maximizing NAD+ Levels

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) levels decline with age, which has been linked to age-related conditions, yet NAD+-boosting precursors replenish this essential molecule.

Maximizing NAD+ levels with the precursors tryptophan, nicotinic acid, nicotinamide, NMN, or NR can alleviate age-associated diseases like cardiovascular ailments and neurodegenerative conditions.

Aging &amp; Longevity

Model: 22-month-old mice 
Dosage: Approximately 100 mg/kg/day D-serine in drinking water

The amino acid D-serine is reduced in older individuals, and D-serine supplementation improves the memory of aged mice.

Model: 24-month-old C57BL/6J mice 
Dosage: Nicotinamide riboside (12 mM) in water. Weight/body weight concentration not given

Scientists discover that NAD+ declines with age in the olfactory bulb — the brain region involved in sense of smell — and restore smell loss with NAD+ booster nicotinamide riboside in old mice.

Model: 30-month-old female New Zealand White rabbits 
Dosage: 2% cholesterol for high-cholesterol diet, 10% saturated fat (coconut oil) and 30% fructose for high-fat, high-fructose diet.

High-Fructose Diet Triggers Alzheimer's 

Aged rabbits fed a high-fructose or high-cholesterol diet exhibit features of Alzheimer’s disease, including impaired memory and amyloid-beta accumulation in the brain.
