STOP tremors in their tracks with this ‘brain vitamin’
It may START as just a minor tremor…
But it could SNOWBALL into FULL-BLOWN movement issues…
Cognitive decline…
And more.
I’m talking about Parkinson’s disease.
There’s A LOT that the mainstream still doesn’t understand about this neurodegenerative disease…
But fortunately, there are strides being made in alternative medicine… ones that could offer a glimmer of hope for folks with this potentially DEBILITATING disease.
If you’re in the crosshairs for this motor disorder… or you’re already struggling to control it…
Here’s the latest you need to know.
Nicotinamide riboside (NR) is one of the many forms of vitamin B3 out there…
One that some folks take as a precursor to an anti-aging molecule called nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide… or NAD+ for short.
NAD+ was first discovered in the year 1906 — and since then, scientists have found it in skeletal muscle, skin, fat, and the brain.
Keeping healthy levels of NAD+ could help boost neurological health…
But on the other side of the coin, NAD+ depletion has been linked to neurodegeneration.
And the older you get, the more your NAD+ reserves could take a nosedive.
By the time you’re 50, you could have just HALF as much NAD+ as you did when you were younger…
And by age 80, your supplies could DWINDLE down to just 1% of what they once were!
It could be because our bodies PRODUCE LESS of it with age… or USE MORE of it to beat back the excess oxidative stress and damage that come with age.
It’s probably some combination of both.
Either way, the good news is that it IS possible to increase our stores of NAD+… but you can’t do it by supplementing with NAD+ directly.
Your body will break it down into smaller parts… and then have to reassemble it back into NAD+.
Fortunately, research shows that even a single dose of NR helped increase NAD+ levels in people!
In this latest clinical trial on Parkinson’s patients, Norwegian researchers found that a 1000-mg daily dose of NR over the course of 30 days not only helped increase NAD+ levels…
But also helped IMPROVE brain metabolism… creating more cellular energy in brain tissue.
Even better, Parkinson’s symptoms were significantly improved as well.
That tells me that NR is helping to address one of the underlying causes of Parkinson’s…
Instead of just COVERING UP the symptoms.
Now, this was just a Phase I trial on real people… so it’ll be quite some time before it’s accepted as a mainstream treatment.
But you can find NR supplements in capsule form at your local health food store or online right now.
A 2018 study on middle-aged and older folks showed that it was safe to take… and doesn’t carry the risks of side effects like the niacin “flush.”
Talk to your doc about how you might incorporate this natural approach into your care.
