In the latest episode of Let’s Grow Young, Dr. Nichola Conlon, a molecular biologist specialising in cellular aging, discusses the importance of NAD (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) in the aging process.
NAD is a natural molecule found in every cell and is critical for energy production and repair. As we age, NAD levels decline, leading to decreased energy and increased damage in cells. Dr. Conlon explains that simply taking NAD supplements or precursors like NMN and NR is not effective because the body's ability to convert these precursors into NAD declines with age. Instead, she has developed a Nuchido, a supplement that focuses on fixing the underlying causes of NAD decline and inflammation. Lifestyle factors, such as excessive alcohol consumption and smoking, can also contribute to NAD decline. Balancing exercise and inflammation is important for maintaining optimal NAD levels.
The episode also explores the benefits of NAD supplementation and the science behind it, with Dr. Nichola Conlon explaining that NAD levels decline with age whilst discussing the role of NAD in energy production, DNA repair, and cellular health. She emphasises the importance of addressing the root causes of NAD decline, and highlights the significance of lifestyle factors like exercise, fasting, and stress management in maintaining optimal NAD levels.
Key Takeaways -
🔄 NAD Essentials: NAD is vital for cellular energy production and repair, but levels decline with age, leading to cellular dysfunction.
🚫 Supplement Limitations: Simply taking NAD supplements or precursors like NMN and NR may not effectively boost NAD levels due to age-related conversion decline.
💡 Innovative Approach: Dr. Conlon pioneers a supplement targeting the root causes of NAD decline and inflammation, offering a holistic solution for cellular rejuvenation.
🌱 Lifestyle Matters: Lifestyle factors like exercise, fasting, and stress management play a crucial role in maintaining optimal NAD levels and cellular health.
🛡️ Scientifically Supported: Explore the robust scientific research behind Nuchido's NAD+ Advanced Supplement, meticulously formulated to enhance NAD production and combat age-related decline.
🩺 Medical Advocacy: Dr. Conlon advocates for greater awareness among medical professionals regarding NAD levels and the integration of NAD supplementation into healthcare practices.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
