“The thing that is interesting to us is that the response is fairly consistent,” Gonzalez said, noting that muscle mass increased by as much as 35% in the birds included in this study. “We’ve had different-sized eggs, we’ve had lots of eggs and we’ve run it four times, and we’ve had the same response each time.”

Now that is truly revealing and informative. Feedstuffs is concerned with just that, and so the study hold promise for the poultry industry, but also NR researchers. That NR has such a profound effect is quite amazing, and more so that the end result of an injection of NR at that stage of life has such major and long lasting effects on body composition later on in life.

 

The bigger question is why is this happening and by what mechanism? How is a NAD+ precursor able to influence in this way?
