Description
NADH is a reduced and active form of NAD+, a Vitamin B-3 Derivative, that is vital to cellular energy production. Although it provides an energy boost to every cell in the body, NADH is most important for the brain’s energy supply and its cognitive functions.
This may explain why the highest concentrations of NADH in the body are found in the brain.
Individuals within different cohorts have been shown to benefit from NADH supplementation. For instance, studies performed by Dr. G.D. Birkmayer et al. have shown some impressive results with just 10 milligrams of daily NADH supplementation in athletes.
Participants found reduced lactic acid-related muscle fatigue after prolonged activity. This means that athletes could perform longer, and the recovery period between training sessions could be shorter, with the same rejuvenating results obtained from a longer rest period. Second, users found 7% more energy, which is likely due to the fact that NADH triggers ATP production---the basic energy source of all cells.
