Microbes in your body can turn an expensive NAD supplement into inexpensive flush niacin. Research has shown that niacin can actually raise NAD levels in the blood 5 to 8 times their baseline levels.

NAD helps pull energy from the food you eat and convert it into ATP for cellular energy. It’s also involved in DNA repair and longevity proteins. NAD supplements have become popular because NAD is believed to decline with age, but research suggests NAD levels remain stable in healthy people as they get older.

You don’t need an expensive NAD supplement. Weight training is one of the best ways to increase NAD, while foods like beef liver, meat, and fish can also help boost your levels.
