NAD+ precursors (NR / NMN) alongside peptides
31 posts
NR and NMN are oral NAD+ boosters that get stacked with longevity peptides routinely. Is there a reason to run them together, or is it mostly habit + marketing? And does anyone actually see NAD+ levels move on a test?

NR at 300 mg/day moved my whole-blood NAD+ measurably (Jinfiniti panel). NMN at similar dose was less clean in my testing. Whether moving the NAD+ number does anything for longevity in a healthy adult is a different question.

The NAD+ story in humans is still much weaker than the rodent story. Precursor supplementation does raise NAD+ in blood. Whether that translates to phenotypic benefit in humans is not well-established.

Stacking NR/NMN with longevity peptides is one of those 'couldn't hurt' positions that's hard to argue against but also hard to justify costing $100+/month.
