NAD+ Levels and Healthy Aging go Hand-in-Hand

Research published in Nature Aging “suggests that a clear association exists between NAD+ and health status in human aging.” NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is found in every cell in your body. It is essential to the chemistry that keeps you up and running.

Unfortunately, NAD+ levels decline universally as we age.

How can you increase your NAD+ levels? Basis is the evidence-based choice

We now have a way to safely and sustainably boost NAD+ levels. Developed by Dr. Leonard Guarente, a leader in the field of aging research, Basis was clinically proven to increase NAD+ levels by an average of 40% in a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial published in the peer-reviewed journal Nature Partner Journals: Aging and Mechanisms of Disease.

Boosted NAD+ activates sirtuins, supports cellular energy and metabolism, targets cellular aging to promote a healthy cellular aging process, and helps maintain healthy DNA.

“I believe Basis is a product that can improve cellular health and target, at least, some of the deficits incurred by aging. It is an important part of a strategy that I follow, along with exercise and a healthy diet, to maintain an active life as I enter my seventies, and hopefully much longer.”

Leonard Guarente, Ph.D., Elysium Co-founder and Chief Scientist

Why is Basis unique among NAD+ supplements?

Basis is clinically proven to safely and sustainably increase NAD+ by an average of 40% in humans. Elysium’s toxicology study also confirmed the superiority of the NR-E in Basis when compared to the published safety profiles of other NAD+ supplements, underscoring the company’s rigorous commitment to research and quality.

The synergistic combination of Elysium’s proprietary and high-purity nicotinamide riboside (NR-E) with potent antioxidant pterostilbene (PT) makes Basis extraordinarily effective. Basis is also third-party tested by independent labs both during and after manufacture for purity and quality, and is independently verified as NSF Certified for Sport.

Hour 4

You just took Basis—nothing could be happening yet, right? Actually, the nicotinamide riboside is already making big moves. It enters your cells via equilibrative nucleoside transporters, membrane proteins that shuttle molecules across.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why are sirtuins important for aging?

Sirtuins are a family of proteins that regulate cellular health. They play a key role in cellular homeostasis, which keeps cells in balance. However, sirtuins can only function in the presence of NAD+, a coenzyme found in all living cells.

What is Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD+) and why is it important?

NAD+ is a critical coenzyme found in every cell. It is involved in hundreds of metabolic processes. NAD+ levels decline with age. It helps convert nutrients into cellular energy and supports proteins that regulate cellular functions. These processes are essential for health.

What is Nicotinamide Riboside (NR) and why is it important?

NR is a form of Vitamin B and a precursor to NAD+. It serves as raw material for the body to produce NAD+. Human clinical studies show NR supplementation can increase NAD+ levels.

What is Pterostilbene and why is it important?

Pterostilbene is a polyphenol found in plants, especially small berries and nuts. Blueberries are a rich source. Unlike resveratrol, pterostilbene does not survive the wine-making process.

What’s a polyphenol?

A polyphenol refers to molecules with multiple phenol structures. Their main role in plants is to fight pathogens. When consumed by humans, polyphenols may act as powerful antioxidants.

Is there anything I should notice once I start taking Basis?

Basis works beneath the surface. Its purpose is to improve long-term cellular health. You may not feel immediate changes. Results vary by individual physiology.

What are the results of your clinical trial?

A first-in-human study showed Basis increased cellular NAD+ levels by an average of 40% within one month. This level was maintained during the trial. Additional biomarkers confirmed ingredient safety.
