Niagen by Live Cell Research Review

Today I am talking a little bit about Niagen which is an anti-aging product that comes in capsule form and that has only one ingredient, 250 milligrams of nicotinamide riboside. Nicotinamide riboside is actually a chemical that is naturally produced in the human body and that is a precursor to nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+), that is basically used to produce or synthesize nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. Now, at this point, many of you are probably wondering what I am talking about, but this must somehow have something to do with anti-aging.
Well, the human body is composed of many cells, human cells as they are called which are a part of everything, every organ and so on. Unfortunately I cannot tell you an exact number since not even scientists or medics can, some say we have tens of trillions, others say it's in the billions, but we definitely have a lot of them, more than there are people on earth apparently (by the way the earth's population is approximately 7.3 billion). Skin also has lots of cells and those cells have a purpose and some day others appear and they are important for the health of the skin and every cell, this is the important part, has mitochondria.

Niagen revolves around helping the mitochondria work better and thus reduce the signs of aging and in fact, it does more than that but I will talk about that later. The mitochondrion is a part of every cell in your body and it produces energy for each cell, that is what it does and that energy is used by the cell in its activities.

Brain cells have mitochondria as well and because of aging, natural aging or premature aging caused by environmental or lifestyle factors, the mitochondrial function slows down, the cellular metabolism and cellular communication slow down. There have been tests on humans but also animals so we know this is a fact and it has an influence on aging as well as cognitive performance, it has been seen to cause neurodegenerative problems. Well, because cells get less nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) as we age, Niagen delivers Nicotinamide riboside to help synthesize nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide and produce more, thus improving/boosting the cellular metabolism and how cells work and this has been shown in studies to help reduce or slow down neurodegenerative problems and aging as well.

So Niagen is great for those of you with aging signs that want to get rid of them. Check out the official website which you can find on Live Cell Research and you can order it from there as well.

What is Niagen?

A lot of people use supplements, there is no doubt about this. I know this because I have friends and people I know that use some type of supplement. I have friends that go to the gym and that take protein supplements, I have friends that use multivitamin supplements although occasionally, such as when the cold season approaches because they believe that it will help them in avoiding a cold or another type of infection. Also, there are studies on this that show that more than half the population of earth is on some type of supplementation or uses supplements occasionally or regularly.

Few of them use them properly, however. Also, for example, for many beliefs that people have, there is, in reality, no proof or not enough, or very inconclusive and unreliable proof. What I mean is that many people believe that using a multivitamin or other type of supplement reduces the risk of getting a cold. In reality, looking at studies, more often than not regular supplements do not prevent colds in people.

Also, it seems as though everyone expects the same results when in reality it's much more complicated. A supplement will offer different benefits varying on the individual, the person using it. Lifestyle, age, gender, all of these factors matter when using a supplement. Some supplements help some people more than others, maybe because those people need the help. Think of it this way, if a person has an iron deficiency and uses iron supplementation, he needs it and it will help but iron supplementation in a person that has enough iron in his body, is simply not needed and does not offer any benefit. Consult your medic before using supplements, because they may simply not work for you, maybe because you don't need it. Such is the case with Niagen which many people are talking about it seems. Niagen is very popular indeed and it uses 250 milligrams of Nicotinamide Riboside (NR). Niagen supplement is made by LiveCellResearch and was used in clinical trials, humans and animals.

It managed to raise levels of NAD+ or Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide which is important for redox in the metabolism, for energy production and electron transfer and more.

Niagen shows a lot of potential especially in those that are aged or suffer from oxidative stress, but its benefits will very likely vary from person to person, so please do consult a medic before using it.

Niagen - Nicotinamide Riboside Review

 

Some people out there care more for belief than for fact or for science, that is a fact, however there's no denying that belief offers no certainty. You can say that you believe something but even you must realize that if your belief does not have any valid, real solid evidence, then it is not certain or verifiable or even true. I prefer science, because science tries to find evidence for things and to offer valid explanations for things that we can see or observe.

For me personally, belief is like sitting on a glass floor that could break anytime and I could fall, I wouldn't feel safe and also I do have a fear of heights so there's that. Science is like sitting on a solid concrete, secure floor that you know will not break down and that you can trust.
 

With that said, things like smoking causes cancer or contributes to it, oxidants cause damage to cells and contribute to aging, these things have scientific evidence so we know they are real, yet even so, some people will deny these things despite the evidence.

I just had to mention this because in this article I am talking about Niagen and it is a supplement that can help with aging and that works by helping your body produce more NAD+ which is a substance that is essential for energy production, cell signaling, cell to cell communication and much more. If we can all agree that there are factors in our lives, the enviroment that we live in, that cause oxidants in the body and that cause damage to the body over time which accumulates and contributes to aging and to various health problems and performance problems like cancer, cognitive decline and more, then Niagen can help because it is proven clinically to help humans produce more NAD+ thus helping our cells work better and be better protected against oxidation.

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is naturally produced by your body however aging as it naturally occurs in your body, causes you to make less of it. Aging itself is determined by information in your genes orDNA but also can be heavily influenced by smoking tobacco, unhealty eating habits, UV light, pollution, radiation, physical activity or sedentarism and so many other factors. 

Nicotinamide riboside, the ingredient used by Niagen, is a precursor to NAD+. To understand what that means you have to understand the measing ot the word precursor. A precursor is like an ingredient, a chemical that is turned into another chemical compound. A precursor is a chemical that can be used to synthesize something else or that can transform into something else.

By giving the body NR, it uses it to make NAD+. In turn your cells use the NAD+ to make energy, it improves cell signaling and so on. It is the first comercially available form of NR, Niagen that is. Visit LiveCellResearch.com or cChromaDex.com for more information.
