<p>Model: Young C57BL/6J mice fed a high protein (56% of daily calories) diet for 20 weeks </p>
<p>Dosage: Injection with either 400 mg/kg of NMN or 20 mg/kg of 78c for 4 weeks</p>


High protein intake improves the body composition of aged mice, but it lowers NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) levels and promotes metabolic aging.
