Interesting, and indicates that NAD+ precursors (or any way to increase NAD+) could be especially helpful those with high protein intake.

Exercise increases NAD. Therefore athletes and and bodybuilders are not depleting NAD with high levels of protein. Exercise and high levels of protein slow down sarcopenia.

If you want a reference, ever heard of a thing called the internet and search engines???

Wonder how much of the benefits that keto can potentially offer ofsets this problems.
High protein diets are just shit in general, methionine = death, just saying.
Regarding exercise (which temporarily increases gluconeogenesis:

MankindRising I like your post, very interesting.
As for this topic, I really have a hard time understanding NAD+ (d-ribose) vs NADH. Currently I take 1-2 times NADH per week, seems to work nice this way bu Seems about right or no?
NAD+ is an oxidizing agent – it accepts electrons from other molecules and becomes reduced. This reaction forms NADH, which can then be used as a reducing agent to donate electrons. These electron transfer reactions are the main function of NAD
So is it safer to take d-ribose (nad+) rather than nadh?
Niacin (also known as vitamin B3 and nicotinic acid) is involved in over 400 enzymatic reactions in the body and is essential for production and management of cellular energy. Niacin and its amide, nicotinamide, are precursors for the coenzyme Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide. Niacin can act directly or indirectly. Niacin acts directly via G protein coupled receptors including Niacin receptor 1 (NIACR1) and Niacin receptor 2 (NIACR2). Niacin acts indirectly when it is used to form Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide. Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide exists in two forms, NAD+ and NADH, respectively the oxidized and reduced forms. NAD+ is written with a superscript plus sign because of the formal charge on a particular nitrogen atom, but at physiological pH, for the most part, it is actually a singly charged anion (charge of minus 1), while NADH is a doubly charged anion.
And I still don't know. Why is NAD+ more popular than NADH? NADH first time on me was one of the most amazing supplements I ever had.
And so, assuming you go to a gym to workout and eat around/over 100grams of proteins per day, OP's link suggest that NAD+may be needed?
