Seems indeed getting the Mitocondrial refreshed helps with longevity and energy.
Its definitely an interesting avenue for further research. I will be waiting to see this attempted in additional (higher order) model systems. I think seeing similar work done in a mouse would be extremely interesting. This could lead to a whole host of therapies in the future if it shows promise in mice.

Something to track.. for now advocados, red wine, and blueberries are food that become NADs in the blood stream. I also found a practice in San Diego of 4 doctors specializing in NAD injections for 15+ years, however not for the novice. Also, suppressed by NIH, since there is not a "pill involved". They were relegated to just doing in the state of California and cross border would have resulted in "prosecution" of junk science.
The NIH doesn't give two shits about whether or not something is in pill form. Neither does the FDA. They do care about whether or not something works.
This, sounds like a bunch of hot air.
Likely because what they are doing IS junk science.
At least the Harvard team are validating this protein NAD and Mitochondrial Health in longevity studies. For now "Junk science" indeed. My approach is always natural and wholelistic first. Just my preference. Now my brother is a practicing physician, so he always keep me healthy indeed if I go far afield.
Yep, more research is badly needed in this area.
My statements on this are more to do with the implementation with out necessary research to back it up. Perhaps more of a "junk treatment" then is the actual scientific basis being junk.
Time and more research will tell us the answers :)
agreed, Looking forward to reading more of your posts and ideas.
