NAD+ Pathways

Meaning

NAD+ Pathways refer to the interconnected biochemical routes involved in the synthesis, utilization, and recycling of Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD+), an essential coenzyme present in every cell that is critical for hundreds of metabolic processes. These pathways are central to energy production, DNA repair, and cellular signaling, acting as a crucial mediator of longevity-associated processes, including sirtuin and PARP enzyme activity. Maintaining optimal NAD+ levels is a key strategy in metabolic and hormonal health.
