- Japanese bamboo shoots (Polygonum Cuspidatum)
- Grapes
- Berries such as blueberries, cranberries, and mulberries contain Resveratrol,
Research has shown it to be an NAD+ activator. It stimulates Sirtuin genes (there are seven Sirtuin genes in total), particularly Sirt1, which plays a key role in regulating aging and preventing diseases. Resveratrol helps slow down cell degeneration,increases the length of telomeres, and revitalizes the skin, promoting a youthful appearance. Additionally, it contains Honokiol, an extract from magnolia, which activates Sirt3, boosting energy in the mitochondria and promoting relaxation and better sleep.
