How Did Yeast Lead Scientists To NAD+?
Category: Healthy Aging
What does yeast 🍞 have to do with the healthy-aging conversation?
More than you might think.
More than 100 years ago, scientists were studying something that seems pretty far removed from longevity research: yeast.
They were trying to understand a basic question: How do living cells turn nutrients into energy?
That research eventually led scientists to a molecule we now know as NAD.
Today, NAD+ has become part of a much bigger conversation around cellular energy, metabolism, and healthy aging.
And that raises some fascinating questions.
– What exactly is NAD+?
– What does it actually do inside our cells?
– Where does NMN fit into the picture?
And why has VO₂ max, a measurement once associated mostly with athletes, become part of the healthy-aging conversation?
We’re exploring those questions during NAD+ Decoded, a FREE Wellness Connection Live for those who want to understand:

During this webcast, you’ll learn:
- The story behind NAD+
How a discovery that began with yeast research eventually became connected to our understanding of cellular processes. - What NAD+ actually does
Why this coenzyme is involved in cellular energy metabolism and why its role goes beyond energy alone. - Why NMN has researchers paying attention
What NMN is, where it fits into the NAD+ pathway, and what scientists are continuing to investigate. - What VOâ‚‚ max really measures
How this measurement reflects the ability of multiple systems to work together.
And how these ideas connect.
We’ll also look at an important part of understanding emerging science:
What do we know—and what are we still learning?
Because understanding healthy aging isn’t about finding one molecule or one measurement that tells the whole story.
It’s about understanding the many pieces.
