This episode of Bulletproof Radio is all about living longer, better with the help of NAD (the coenzyme of life). Like Dave Asprey, Dr. Charles Brenner is someone who has really dug deep into what's going on in our mitochondria and is a total badass on all things related to cellular health.Charles is an expert on NAD and NADH and co-discovered something called Nicotinamide Riboside, which is one of the few compounds out there that can boost NAD in your body. And that is important if you are interested in aging better.If you can get your NAD levels up via any pathway possible - whether it is from exercise, eating the right things, or taking supplements - it is absolutely worth your time and attention if you are interested in living a more capable life for a longer period of time.Enjoy the show!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
