Every single cell needs NAD+. It's what you're doing to transfer energy into a cell from the mitochondria and get each cell to work properly. If our building blocks, our cells, are not working because they don't have the energy, we definitely won't have the energy to go through with normal life, normal functions, with being truly healthy. - Caspar Szulc

Wellness + Wisdom Episode 550

Caspar Szulc, President and Co-Founder of Innovative Medicine, joins Josh Trent on the Wellness + Wisdom podcast episode 550 to share how NAD+ optimizes brain function by providing cell-to-cell communication, and why the modern healthcare system doesn't work.

Why does the human body need NAD+ to function properly and why do most people get depleted of NAD+ over time?

By the end of this episode, you'll have an understanding of how NAD+ works to power the brain, what's wrong with the U.S. healthcare system, why biohacking should be the standard of medicine, and how hitting rock bottom can become the turning point.

Optimize Brain Function Research suggests NAD+ is critical in multiple biological processes in the brain, such as neurotransmission, learning, and memory.

Sustained Energy Levels Nadovim works directly on the cellular level, optimizing mitochondrial function to provide sustained energy without crashes.

Improved Memory Retention Studies have shown ingredients in Nadovim, including Bacopa and Cat’s Claw, help improve higher-order cognitive processes and show a positive impact on the hippocampus for neurogenesis resulting in improved memory and learning.

Power Quotes From The Show NAD+ as Brain Fuel

"To give the brain proper energy levels that it needs to focus, concentrate, do all of the things it does within a day, let us breathe, we don't even know about half of it. It's happening without us doing anything. But it's taking up energy. You need to power the brain.

NAD+ is probably the most critical element in powering the brain. If you look at it from that standpoint of "what do you need to have a productive day?" To have a day where you don't lack energy and mental clarity? All these things that so many people are facing right now. That's NAD+." - Caspar Szulc

Your Diet + Lifestyle Should Matter to Doctors

"Doctors don't believe nutrition as anything. That is not a factor at all. We've got drugs, we've got surgery, you're good. You don't need to talk to the patient even about their diet or their lifestyle.

If you changed the educational system where doctors came out and started more on this functional basis of "tell me about you and what you're doing on a daily basis, I'll show you the results of the labs and we're going to meet in the middle somewhere." We're going to plan something where we start with lifestyle changes.

We don't start with heavy drugs and cutting you open. Those are the last resorts. And if you look at medicine, that's their first resort. That's disease care medicine, that's not health care." - Caspar Szulc

Biohacking vs Modern Medicine

"I truly believe biohacking is just the difference between where medicine should be and just the starting point. What I mean by that is you usually biohack when you're healthy and get super healthy from it. Whereas in medicine you usually start at a sick point and you get to a healthier point." - Caspar Szulc

Improving 1% Every Day Is Enough

"If you made just 1% improvement every day for a year, at the end of the year, you'd be 37 times better as a whole because of that 1%.

Don't think that you have to change so much in one day. Don't think if you can't sleep, you're eating poorly, you have these symptoms, and you're fatigued, that you need to change that within a month. The reality of the story is you've probably been leading up to that for years and years. So it's going to take some time to unravel. And that's ok." - Caspar Szulc

Our Health + The Health of The World

"We are the microbiome of the world. If we are unhealthy, the world is unhealthy. If we are unhealthy, we don't care that we use plastic everywhere and that we corrupt everything with chemicals. I don't want to put chemicals in my body. I won't give my money to people that produce chemicals. That's then going to the environment and kill it.

We're part of the environment. We detach ourselves from nature. We're one and the same. You want to be an eco-warrior? Start with yourself, start with your health." - Caspar Szulc
