Quick question: how much did you spend on anti-aging skin creams, oils, serums and supplements over the past year? Now, a follow-up question: on a scale of 1–10, exactly how good did you feel about that expenditure? For most of us—particularly those of us who've reached [ahem] a certain age—that number hovers right around three. We can't ignore what we see in the mirror, so it's easy to be seduced by slick marketing, pretty packaging and fountain-of-youth promises.
Yet most of us don't feel like we're really seeing results. Another year brings another fresh batch of wrinkles and creases. The fight to live a healthy lifestyle can be downright exhausting…and it's taking place during a period of our lives when we're already feeling the ravages of time! That's why I was so interested to read about an American scientist named Dr. Charles Brenner, the Stanford-educated PhD who uncovered a new way to support maintaining good health—by boosting energy at the cellular level.
THE PATHWAY TO CELLULAR HEALTH
In his groundbreaking research, Dr. Brenner discovered a link between Niagen, a form of vitamin B3 with cellular health benefits, and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+), an essential coenzyme needed by every living cell to function properly. NAD+ helps your body create energy at the cellular level and supports your body's ability to metabolize nutrients—these are essential functions that keep your body running at peak performance.
Unfortunately, our NAD+ levels decline up to 50% between the ages of 40 and 60, as shown in a human study.
Look at it this way: mitochondria are the powerhouse of your cells. Like any other energy resource, they depend upon an external power source to keep them charged. ASEA is one of the sources that support these essential functions—including the production of cellular energy.
