In this episode of "The Science of Age-less Living," Dr. Ethan Hausman-Marquis delves into the complexities surrounding nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). Discover its crucial role in energy production, DNA repair, and cellular health, as well as the rising popularity of NAD+ supplements. We’ll examine the scientific evidence linking NAD+ to cancer growth and discuss the implications for those with a history of cancer. With caution advised for certain individuals, learn how to navigate the fascinating landscape of NAD+ supplementation. Join us as we separate fact from fiction and empower your health journey! #NADplus #AgingScience #HealthAndWellness #CancerResearch #AgeLessLiving OUTLINE: 00:00:00 The Foundation of Age-less Science or Cancer Curse? 00:02:33 NAD+ Basics and Its Importance 00:06:16 Hype vs. Science 00:09:51 NAD+ and DNA Repair 00:11:23 NAD+ and the Immune System 00:13:01.
