BONUS: The Anti-Aging Molecule Backed by Nobel Prize Research : 1492
Jun 28, 2026 · 12m
Summary
Dave Asprey explains how NAD+ levels dictate aging and energy, citing Nobel Prize research on cognitive decline. He outlines a protocol to restore NAD+ by consuming niacin and tryptophan, using quercetin and apigenin to inhibit degradation, and triggering production via fasting and REHIT exercise. Finally, he recommends NMN supplementation to boost levels, emphasizing that diet and lifestyle changes must precede supplements for effective results.
