Dr Nichola Conlon, CEO and founder of Nuchido is a molecular biologist specialising in the study of cellular ageing. In this episode she talks to Angela about the vital molecule you’ve probably never heard of NAD+

With a critical role in the energy production for cells NAD+ levels are impacted by lifestyle and ageing but as Dr Nichola Conlon explains there are positive actions you can take to boost NAD+ levels and optimise your health and longevity to live your best life  



KEY TAKEAWAYS
The fluctuating levels of NAD+ control cellular maintenance and repair being switched on and off
Research indicates that NAD+ begins its decline from birth, by the time you reach twenty you have half the amount of energy in your tissues
Any level of fasting will help to increase your energy levels, when you fast AMPK is activated and up-regulates NAD+ levels
Creating energy stress through fasting, calorie restriction and exercise in the body positively impacts NAD+ levels
The salvage pathway recycles NAD+ for use again for repair and mitochondrial pathways but declines with age
All the benefits of exercise and fasting happen because they are increasing the function of the salvage pathways
Elevating NAD+  can help make some chronic illnesses significantly better
Biological age can be impacted by making simple lifestyle changes
Sirtuins  are at the top of the cascade that switches on many aspects of longevity and they are dependent on NAD+ as fuel to function
NAD+ is involved in regulating the circadian rhythm by switching on the pathways that impact the rhythm



BEST MOMENTS

‘I do all my exercise in a fasted state to prolong AMPK activation’

‘You are fundamentally altering the cells' ability to make more NAD+ ‘

‘Our bodies aren’t designed to live in the way we are living today

‘If you want to make sense of ageing look at it from the perspective of evolution’
