NAD+ has become the hottest trend in biohacking and longevity, with clinics charging $300+ per IV infusion and supplements flying off shelves. But is it actually worth it—or are you just paying to age faster?
In this video, I'm breaking down the science, exposing the marketing hype, and revealing what the $3 billion NAD+ industry doesn't want you to know.

1:10 - What NAD+ Actually Is
1:30 - How Your Body Naturally Regulates NAD+
1:50 - The Multiple NAD+ Production Pathways
2:05 - The Truth About NMN and NR Supplements
2:40 - Red Flag #1: If You're Healthy, You're Probably Fine
2:45 - The "50% Depletion by Age 60" Myth
3:00 - Why NAD+ Levels Actually Drop
3:15 - The Leaking Engine Analogy
3:25 - The Research Problem: Mouse Studies vs Human Reality
3:50 - Tiny Human Studies with Conflicts of Interest
4:05 - NAD+ IV Infusions: No Long-Term Evidence
4:20 - The Real Fix: Reduce Inflammation
4:35 - The Kicker: Excess NAD+ May Accelerate Aging
4:50 - You Can't Even Test NAD+ Levels Reliably
5:15 - What Actually Works (The Free Solutions)
5:45 - When to See a Functional Doctor
6:00 - Final Verdict: Marketing Hype vs Reality
6:20 - Closing & Call to Action
🔬 The Reality:
Most healthy people don't need NAD+ supplementation. If you're eating nutrient-dense foods, sleeping well, and exercising, your body is already optimizing NAD+ production naturally.
💡 What Actually Works:
✅ Morning sunlight exposure (activates NAMPT)
✅ Quality sleep with dim/red lights at night
✅ Whole foods rich in niacin, B vitamins, and magnesium
✅ Managing chronic inflammation
✅ Regular exercise and intermittent fasting
The longevity industry wants you to believe you need expensive injections and supplements. But the truth? The basics still work best—and they're free.
