In this segment Dr. Nichola Conlon explains that NAD+ is a naturally occurring molecule present in every cell, essential for hundreds of biochemical reactions. She highlights two primary roles: first, NAD+ is crucial for converting food into ATP, the body’s energy currency; second, recent research shows NAD+ serves as a fuel that powers a vast array of repair proteins and enzymes, helping maintain cellular health and counteract aging before damage becomes apparent.

Chapters

we have an army of repair proteins and enzymes that are constantly trying to keep on top of any repair in our bodies before we ever even notice that it becomes an issue. And it's these things that seem to slow and get turned down. And this is where NAD+ comes in. NAD+ is a natural molecule, and it's, it's not something that we're adding to the body. NAD+ is something that's naturally found in every single cell, and it's critically important in hundreds of different reactions. But I guess the two things that it's most famous for are firstly energy production. So NAD+ plays a very key role in basically taking our food and turning it into the ATP, which is the energy currency of ourselves. But actually, much more recently, it's been found that NAD+ acts as a fuel to drive a lot of these repair processes that I just mentioned in our bodies.
