Angela welcomes Nichola Conlon to talk about the critical molecule NAD (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) and its importance for the human body.

Nichola provides a comprehensive overview of NAD, highlighting its crucial roles in energy production within cells and as a signaling molecule for cellular maintenance and repair. Angela and Nichola also look into how NAD levels decline with age, impacting energy levels and cellular health, ultimately contributing to the aging process

"NAD, I sometimes refer to it as probably the most important molecule that you've never heard of." 

"From research that's been done, it seems like it declines from birth. So by the time you're age 20, you've kind of got half the amounts of NAD that you had when you were born." 

"I think what's known is that any level of fasting really is going to start to actually increase your NAD levels."

"So all the beneficial effects of exercise, fasting, et cetera, are happening because they're increasing the ability of our cells to use this salvage pathway."
