Note \u2014 it is not exactly a peptide, but rather a coenzyme. We'll explain what it is and why it is so widely studied.<\/p>\n<p style=\"background:#eef3fa;border-inline-start:3px solid #1f6feb;border-radius:8px;padding:12px 16px;color:#3a4658;font-size:.95em;\">The information in this article is for educational purposes only and does not constitute medical advice. All products on the site are for research use only.<\/p>\n<h2>What is NAD+?<\/h2>\n<p>NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) is a coenzyme found in every cell in the body, and plays a central role in energy metabolism \u2014 in \"oxidation-reduction\" (redox) processes that drive cellular energy production. It is not a peptide, but is sometimes studied in the same context of cellular health.<\/p>\n<h2>What does the research examine?<\/h2>\n<p>NAD+ levels decline with age, and therefore it has been studied in research on aging, mitochondrial function, and cellular pathways (such as sirtuin enzymes). This is one of the most-discussed areas in longevity research.<\/p>\n<h2>Why is everyone talking about it?<\/h2>\n<p>The connection between NAD+ and cellular energy and aging processes has made it a popular research topic. That said, it is important to remember that much of the research is still developing, and the product is for research use only.<\/p>\n<h2>Frequently asked questions<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Is NAD+ a peptide?<\/strong><br \/>No \u2014 it is a coenzyme (a nucleotide derivative), but is sold and studied in the broad context of cellular health and longevity.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How is it reconstituted?<\/strong><br \/>From powder, using <a href=\"\/en\/product\/bac-water\/\">bacteriostatic water<\/a> and<a href=\"\/en\/calculator\/\">our dilution calculator<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>For the research product details: <a href=\"\/en\/product\/nad\/\">NAD+<\/a>.
