Hidden in your cells are proteins with a remarkable purpose: maintaining cellular health and supporting longevity. These are sirtuins, often called the body’s longevity proteins.
What Are Sirtuins?
Sirtuins are a family of NAD+-dependent proteins that regulate cellular function. They’re involved in:
- DNA repair
- Metabolic regulation
- Stress response
- Cellular aging processes
Why They Matter
Research has shown that sirtuin activity is associated with healthy aging and longevity. The challenge: sirtuins need NAD+ to do their work. As NAD+ declines with age, so does sirtuin activity.
How Resveratrol Fits In
Resveratrol, a polyphenol found in red grapes and wine, activates sirtuins—essentially waking up your body’s longevity proteins. Combined with NAD+ support (via NMN), resveratrol creates a synergistic effect that helps your cells maintain their repair and maintenance systems.
