NR and NMN are popular ways to try to boost levels of NAD+, but that approach hasn't worked every time in human studies. One reason for that may involve CD38, which degrades both NR and NMN. With the goal of boosting NAD+ levels during aging, why does CD38 increase with age, and what can be done about it?

There have been other threads discussing CD38 inhibition. Hopefully some more great information will also be shared in this thread.
