How it Works and Daily Intake Guide
Follow the instructions provided with the test kit to collect your sample.
Start with a baseline NAD+ test, then continue your chosen supplement regimen and retest after ~8 weeks to assess its effectiveness. This window reflects typical timelines observed for measurable NAD+ increases in research settings. Once your levels are optimized, periodic retesting (2-3 times per year) is generally sufficient.
Increase testing frequency if you make significant changes to your supplements, lifestyle or experience shifts in health conditions.
One capsule per day, preferably in the morning. Can be taken with or without a meal. Do not exceed recommended daily intake. For best results, take for a minimum of 6 months and beyond.

Benefits
Measure intracellular NAD+ where it matters most - inside the cell - where it fuels metabolism, repair and healthy aging. NMN is a precursor to NAD+, which declines with age. NMN supplementation aims to boost these levels.
Track how your biology responds to NAD+ precursors such as NMN nutraceuticals or NAD+ IV drips with lab-grade intracellular data.
Assess Magnesium, Zinc and Selenium which are key cofactors that support NAD+ metabolism and protect against oxidative stress.
NAD+ is essential for mitochondrial function, the powerhouses of cells. By increasing NAD+ levels, NMN may support healthy mitochondrial activity, leading to increased energy production and improved cellular health, which are vital for longevity.
NAD+ plays a role in DNA repair and cellular signalling pathways involved in stress response. NMN's potential to boost NAD+ may support these mechanisms, contributing to cellular resilience and potentially slowing down aspects of the aging process.
Why Biomarkers Matter: Translate Insights into Longevity
-
Biomarkers are measurable indicators of your body’s internal state, vital clues that help tailor your lifestyle, nutrition, and supplement choices. The Longevity NAD+ Test offers a deep-dive assessment into key biomarkers thoroughly researched for their roles in supporting longevity.
-
NAD+:Major regulator of the aging process. It is crucial in many cellular processes, including energy metabolism, cellular signaling, DNA repair and gene expression regulation. Its levels can drop by up to 50% by age 40, which may result in health issues like fatigue, inflammation, stress, insulin resistance and neurodegeneration.
-
Testing NAD+ Intracellularly:NAD+ functions inside the cell. Plasma or serum levels do not reflect actual biological activity. Intracellular testing provides a more accurate picture of your metabolic state.
-
Selenium, Magnesium and Zinc:These intracellular minerals are necessary for NAD+ synthesis (salvage pathway), sirtuin activation, and redox balance. If they are low, your ability to use or recycle NAD+ can be compromised.
-
Combining the Test with Supplementation or IV Therapy:Whether you are using NMN, NR, or NAD+ IV drips, this test helps you establish a baseline, measure your biological response and adjust your protocol accordingly.
Tracking these markers ensures that your health strategies align with your longevity goals, letting you act with actionable insights rather than guesswork.
What Is NAD⁺ and Why Is It Important for Aging?
NAD⁺ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) is a coenzyme involved in cellular energy metabolism and serves as a substrate for enzymes involved in processes such as DNA repair and cellular signaling. NAD⁺ metabolism has been widely studied in the context of aging and cellular health. Source: Verdin E. Science (2015); Rajman L. Cell Metab (2018); Imai S. Trends Cell Biol (2014).
Why Test Magnesium, Zinc, and Selenium?
These minerals play important roles in enzymatic activity, cellular metabolism and redox balance, all of which interact with NAD+. Adequate levels of these minerals support the biochemical processes involved in maintaining and utilising NAD+. Source: Gruber J. Rejuvenation Res (2014); Makarov DV. Redox Biol (2020).
Why Test NAD⁺ Intracellularly?
NAD+ functions inside cells. Unlike plasma or serum measurements, intracellular testing measures NAD+ within cellular blood components, enabling accurate measurement of intracellular NAD+ levels. Source: Lautrup S. Cell Metab (2019); Trammell S. Nat Commun (2016).
Does This Help Guide NAD⁺ Supplementation or IV Therapy?
Yes. Whether you are using NMN, NR, or NAD+ IV drips, this test helps you establish a baseline and make informed adjustments to your longevity strategy. This provides objective information that can help you understand how your measured NAD⁺ levels change during your longevity strategy. Source: Mills KF. Nat Commun (2016); Dollerup OL. Nat Commun (2020).
I Feel Fine. Do I Still Need This Test?
Yes. You can test your NAD⁺ levels even if you feel healthy. Establishing a baseline allows you to understand your current levels and track changes over time. Source: Zhang J. Aging Cell (2016); Hou Y. Science (2018).
