Recharge your body’s natural energy — from the inside out.
The Science Behind LifespanMax NR
Why Cellular Health Is So Important
Your body is made up of around 37 trillion cells, each performing its own vital function.
From your heart and brain to your skin, muscles, and immune system, every part of your body depends on these cells working efficiently.
No matter what their specific role is, every cell relies on two fundamental abilities:
- Creating energy
- Repairing and renewing itself
Both of these functions happen inside small structures within your cells called mitochondria — the “energy engines” of your body.
When your cells don’t have enough energy or can’t repair properly, you start to feel it:
- Energy dips throughout the day
- Slower muscle recovery
- Difficulty concentrating
- Early signs of aging in skin and metabolism
Keeping your cells healthy isn’t just about looking or feeling better — it’s about keeping every system in your body working at its best.
In a study, users reported positive effects on energy, mood, and mental performance.†
Where Cellular Energy Comes From
The mitochondria are responsible for generating around 90% of the energy your body uses every day.
They convert the food you eat — fats, carbohydrates, and proteins — into a usable energy molecule called ATP (adenosine triphosphate).
This ATP powers everything from breathing and digestion to thinking, movement, and repair.
However, this energy production process depends on one essential molecule: NAD⁺ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide).
Without NAD⁺, the mitochondria cannot transform nutrients into energy.
As NAD⁺ levels decline, so does your ability to create ATP — and that’s when fatigue, slower metabolism, and signs of aging start to appear.
What NAD⁺ Does in Your Body
NAD⁺ is one of the most vital molecules in human biology.
It’s involved in over 400 enzymatic reactions that sustain life — but its two main jobs are:
- Energy creation – NAD⁺ helps your mitochondria transfer electrons during metabolism, which creates ATP — the cell’s fuel source.
- Repair and protection – NAD⁺ powers enzymes that maintain your DNA and cellular structure.
Every time your body fights off stress, recovers from exercise, or repairs damage from sunlight and pollution, NAD⁺ is consumed.
It’s also what activates sirtuins — the “longevity proteins” that regulate aging, metabolism, and resilience — and PARPs, enzymes that repair DNA damage.
Without NAD⁺, these essential systems can’t function optimally.
Why NAD⁺ Levels Decline With Age
Unfortunately, NAD⁺ naturally declines over time — up to 50% by middle age.
This happens for several reasons:
- Aging: Your cells produce less NAD⁺ as you get older.
- Stress: Both physical and mental stress increase NAD⁺ consumption.
- Inflammation and illness: Immune responses burn through NAD⁺ quickly.
- Poor lifestyle factors: Lack of sleep, pollution, and UV exposure accelerate NAD⁺ loss.
At the same time, your body creates fewer mitochondria — meaning you have fewer “energy engines” to rely on.
The result: your body feels more drained, your recovery slows, and the signs of aging become visible.
But this decline isn’t permanent — it’s reversible with the right kind of cellular support.
NAD⁺ for Cellular Repair and Regeneration
Beyond energy, NAD⁺ is critical for your cells’ self-repair and defense systems.
Sirtuins – The Longevity Regulators
Sirtuins are a family of seven proteins (SIRT1–SIRT7) that control cellular repair, gene expression, and inflammation balance.
They can only function in the presence of NAD⁺. When NAD⁺ levels are restored, sirtuins are reactivated — supporting healthy aging, DNA stability, and metabolic health.
PARPs – The DNA Repair Crew
PARP enzymes use NAD⁺ to repair tiny breaks in your DNA that occur naturally throughout the day.
This keeps your cells genetically stable and resilient against stress, toxins, and environmental damage.
Mitochondrial Renewal
NAD⁺ also helps your cells produce new mitochondria — ensuring your energy engines stay strong and efficient even as you age.
