Think of NAD+ as a cellular energy currency that gets spent and recycled constantly. When cells break down nutrients, NAD+ accepts electrons and becomes NADH (the “charged” version). This charged molecule then delivers its electrons to power cellular processes, and NAD+ is regenerated. NAD+ also serves as a fuel for special proteins called sirtuins that help protect cells and regulate aging. By studying NAD+, researchers can better understand how cells manage energy and defend against age-related damage.
