Excellent research requires excellent teams! We are happy to have such a team!
At MetAGE, we explore how interconnected metabolic processes shape health over time and how we can support healthy aging, together.

Honored to launch the First Issue of Geromedicine (GER)! 🥂
Featuring groundbreaking work on the "Hallmarks of Aging" by Carlos López-Otín & Guido Kroemer, and clinical insights into NAD+ therapy. A must-read for the #Geroscience community.

Thank you for the excellent breakdown, Dr. Almenawer!
We're thrilled to see this NAD+ review in our inaugural issue. Bridging the gap between geroscience and clinical application is exactly why we launched Geromedicine journal.

Scientists just published a major review of human trials on boosting nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) — the molecule that powers your cells and declines sharply with age.
Here’s the breakdown, plain and simple:
Your cells run on NAD+. It fuels energy production, repairs DNA, quiets inflammation, and keeps mitochondria (your cellular power plants) humming.
As you age, NAD+ levels tank — leading to fatigue, slower recovery, weaker muscles, and higher risk of heart disease, diabetes, brain fog, and more.
You can’t just swallow NAD+ itself. Your gut and digestive enzymes break it down before it reaches cells.
That’s why we use precursors — safe compounds your body converts into NAD+.
The main ones:
• Niacin (nicotinic acid, a classic form of vitamin B3), but it often at high-doses causes uncomfortable flushing (skin redness and heat). Recent large studies show mixed heart benefits, and one 2024 paper linked excess niacin byproducts to inflammation and higher CV risk.
• Nicotinamide (NAM) — milder, but less efficient at sustained NAD+ boosts.
• Nicotinamide riboside (NR) and nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) — newer, cleaner options that skip the flush and raise NAD+ more effectively.
This new review in @geromedicine looked at dozens of trials in middle-aged and older adults (2020–2025).
Real human wins:
• Better walking distance and grip strength
• Less fatigue and better physical performance
• Lower blood pressure, cholesterol, and body weight in some
• Reduced inflammation in immune cells and the heart
• Hints of brain protection (Parkinson’s, mild cognitive impairment)
• Improved mitochondrial function and insulin sensitivity
Most trials found these precursors safe and well-tolerated, with minimal side effects.
Between NR and NMN, I lean toward NMN. It’s one step closer in the conversion pathway (NR has to become NMN first), and recent human data show solid gains in energy, sleep quality, and metabolic health at doses like 250–1000mg/day.
My practical recommendation: Start with 500mg NMN daily (many take it in the morning). Higher-quality brands test for purity.
I’ve spent years digging into longevity science to help people make sharp calls on health.
This NAD+ pathway stands out because it has actual human evidence — not just mouse studies — showing we can dial back age-related decline.
Your vitality doesn’t have to slip away on the usual timeline.
Tools like NMN give you a real shot at holding onto more energy, strength, and resilience for longer.
