Model: Young acquired niacin dependency (ANDY) mice. 
Dosage: 30 mg/kg/day of niacin

Mice engineered to have low body-wide NAD+ levels exhibit a shortened lifespan and widespread physical decline, which is largely reversed with the NAD+ booster niacin. 

NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) levels were lower among older adults with frailty—an age-related condition associated with increased vulnerability to disability, disease, and death.

Model: 6-week-old ICR mice
Dosage: 250 mg/kg per day or 500 mg/kg per day of glucosamine and 100 mg/kg per day or 200 mg/kg per day of aspirin for either eight (acute alcohol exposure model) or 40 days (chronic alcohol exposure model)

New Study Supports Repurposing Glucosamine Against Liver Aging

A sugar-like compound found in cartilage called glucosamine reduces dysfunctional cells (senescent cells) in the liver and attenuates liver damage from alcohol consumption in mice.
