Unpublished Results Show NMNH Triples NAD+ in First Human Trial

According to newly released results from a first-of-its-kind clinical trial, reduced nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMNH) triples circulating NAD+ and improves subjective quality of life scores.

Results from a first-of-its-kind human trial show that reduced nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMNH) triples circulating NAD+ levels.

Clinical Trials

Model: Male C57BL/6J mice 
Dosage: 150 mg/kg/day of diallyl sulforated compounds in food

Diallyl sulfonated compounds (DAS), found in garlic, extend the lifespan of mice while counteracting signs of aging, such as grip weakness and memory loss.

Aging &amp; Longevity

Model: Male COX7RP transgenic mice with systemic overexpression of COX7RP, aged under standard laboratory conditions and compared with age-matched wild-type controls.
Dosage: Not applicable. COX7RP activity was increased via genetic overexpression rather than drug administration.

Boosting mitochondrial efficiency by increasing COX7RP activity extended lifespan in mice while improving energy production and reducing inflammation.

How to Boost Mitochondrial Tissue Density and Quality for Longevity

Lifestyle hacks contrived to promote the tissue density and quality of mitochondria (the cell’s powerhouses) can aid in the efficient generation of cellular energy and reduce inflammation, thereby promoting longevity.

Exercise, nutritional support, and lifestyle hacks like cold exposure can all help mitigate mitochondrial dysfunction, a key hallmark of aging.

New Study Shows Cranberry Extract Equivalent to Metformin in Fighting Aging

Fayoum University researchers found that cranberry polyphenols improve metabolic markers, cognition, and oxidative stress to the same degree as the drug metformin.

A new study suggests cranberry extract has effects against aging that rival metformin.
