70 is the New 60: Enhancing Intrinsic Capacity
Recent research from the Nature Aging journal highlights a transformative shift in aging trends: today's older adults are healthier and more vital than previous generations at the same age. This improvement is attributed to a concept known as intrinsic capacity, which measures cognitive, locomotor, sensory, psychological, and vitality functions. For individuals aged 40 and older—these findings are a beacon of hope and a call to action.
Intrinsic Capacity: What It Means for Aging
Intrinsic capacity represents the aggregate physical and mental capabilities that determine how well we age. In studies conducted across England and China, newer generations exhibit higher levels of intrinsic capacity as they approach their 60s and 70s. The reasons? Better education, improved nutrition, access to healthcare, and a proactive approach to health management.
However, this trend is not guaranteed to continue. Rising rates of obesity, sedentary lifestyles, and environmental stressors threaten to reverse these gains.

The Role of NAD+, NMN, NR-CL, NADH, and NMNH in Aging Gracefully
At BestLife NZ, we believe in empowering individuals to take control of their health, especially as they age. One of our flagship supplements, NAD+, directly supports vitality—a cornerstone of intrinsic capacity. Here’s how NAD+, NMN, NR-CL, NADH, and NMNH contribute to healthier aging:
-
Cellular Energy Production: NAD+ is critical for the mitochondria, your body’s power plants, to function efficiently. As NAD+ levels decline with age, supplementing with NMN, NR-CL, NADH, or NMNH can restore energy levels and enhance overall vitality.
-
DNA Repair: NAD+ plays a key role in repairing DNA damage caused by environmental factors and aging. Improved DNA repair translates to better long-term cellular health.
-
Cognitive Support: NAD+ influences sirtuins, proteins that regulate brain health and cognitive function. Maintaining optimal levels may slow cognitive decline.
-
Inflammation Reduction: NAD+ helps modulate inflammatory responses, promoting better locomotor and psychological health.
-
Advanced Benefits of NADH and NMNH: As newer and more bioavailable versions, NADH and NMNH offer enhanced stability and efficiency. These advanced forms may provide quicker energy boosts and superior support for brain and cellular health.

Integrating Supplements with Lifestyle Changes
While supplements provide a solid foundation, combining them with a healthy lifestyle amplifies their benefits. Here’s a simple action plan:
-
Exercise Regularly: Even light physical activity improves locomotor and cardiovascular function.
-
Adopt a Nutrient-Dense Diet: Pair your supplements with a diet rich in antioxidants and healthy fats to support absorption.
-
Prioritize Sleep: NAD+ supplements may enhance sleep quality by regulating circadian rhythms.
-
Stay Engaged: Mental stimulation and social connections are essential for maintaining psychological health.
