Eating your way to longevity sounds like a delicious plan, but it isn’t always easy to get the nutrients you need from whole food sources. Whenever possible, fill your plates with foods high in vitamins, minerals, proteins, and healthy fats. Pick foods that are high in antioxidants and can neutralize cell-damaging free radicals.

But, according to Neuroscientist Robert W.B. Love, some nutrients — three in particular — can “reverse aging” and aren’t as effortless to get from foods as something like vitamin C. Here’s what you need to know about these superpower supplements.

1. NMN


NMN (Nicotinamide Mononucleotide) is a supplement that is a precursor to NAD⁺ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide), an important molecule found in our cells. NAD+ is crucial for energy production, DNA repair, and regulating cellular aging. Unfortunately, it declines as we age, and taking NMN can help by boosting your NAD+ levels, supporting cognitive health, boosting your metabolism, and more.

2. NAD


NAD (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) is a coenzyme that is found in your cells and helps with energy production, DNA repair, improved metabolic health, reduced inflammation, and may help increase lifespan. Some studies support NAD’s connection with longevity and cellular health, though more studies are needed.

3. Nitric Oxide


Nitric oxide supplements support cardiovascular health by helping to widen blood vessels, supports your immune system and functioning, and improving how cells use oxygen and energy. Although more studies are needed, they may help lower blood pressure, increase oxygen and nutrient delivery to muscles, and support cognitive health.
