2d ago00:22:16Summary readyNAD is everywhere right now: supplements, injections, podcast topics, longevity clinics. And I'll be honest, when something gets this trendy, I get skeptical. But NAD is different. This is actually something I've been watching closely for nearly 25 years, and the science has finally caught up.Here's what most people don't realize: the exhaustion, the brain fog, the slower recovery you've been chalking up to "just getting older"? That's often your NAD levels in freefall, and it's happening earlier than you think.On this episode, I'm breaking down what NAD actually does inside your cells, why most supplements on the market are quietly failing you, and what I looked for when I finally designed my own formula — Gundry MD Elevate NAD+.
