NAD+

1. Get energy that lasts

Basis doesn't just promise energy—it delivers it at the source. In clinical trials, participants saw a 40% increase in NAD+ levels within 30 days, fueling cellular energy for better workouts, faster recovery, and more days you feel your best. NAD+ powers your mitochondria—the energy factories in every cell—so you are energized from the inside out. And that means more energy for every run, ride, or rep.

2. Built on 40+ years of breakthrough science

Basis was created by Leonard Guarente, Ph.D.—the scientist who discovered the link between NAD+ and aging. He’s been leading the field for over four decades, earning recognition from The Wall Street Journal as the “grandfather of the booming longevity movement” and praise from health leaders worldwide.

3. Recover faster and perform better

As NAD+ levels rise throughout your body, studies show the benefits reach multiple tissues—including your muscles. Higher NAD+ supports the cellular processes that help your muscles function optimally and recover faster from exercise and daily activities.

4. Keep your body feeling younger (biologically)

In a groundbreaking study, people who took Basis aged more slowly. On average, their bodies were 2.5 years younger (measured as biological age) than people who didn’t take it. A larger study of 4,000+ people showed the same results—Basis helps slow the cellular clock.

5. Support your skin from the inside out

Basis helps your body naturally make more collagen and ceramides—two key building blocks for smooth, healthy-looking skin. Instead of quick fixes, it works at the cellular level to help your skin stay strong, resilient, and healthy over time.

FAQs

Q. What is NAD+?

NAD+, or nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, is a critical coenzyme found in every cell in your body, and it’s involved in hundreds of metabolic processes—but NAD+ levels decline with age. NAD+ has two general sets of reactions in the human body: Helping turn nutrients into cellular energy as a key player in metabolism and working as a helper molecule for proteins that regulate other cellular functions. These processes are incredibly important.

Q. How quickly will I see results from Basis?

NAD+ levels are already rising on the first day of taking Basis, but individual experiences vary. Some people report increased energy within days, while others notice improvements in recovery and, skin health, and mental clarity over the course of weeks. Clinical studies show that a 40% NAD+ increase (back to youthful levels) is reached within 30 days of consistent use.

Q. What makes Basis different from other NAD+ supplements?

Basis is the only NAD+ supplement that combines nicotinamide riboside (NR) with pterostilbene (PT) in a synergistic formula. It’s developed by Dr. Leonard Guarente, the longevity scientist who pioneered NAD+ research, and is backed by multiple peer-reviewed clinical studies.

Q. Is Basis safe to take long-term?

Yes. Basis has undergone extensive safety testing, including toxicology studies that confirm its superior safety profile compared to other NAD+ supplements. It’s NSF Certified for Sport, meaning it’s independently tested for banned substances (for athletes), quality, and purity.

Q. What's the best way to take Basis?

Take 2 capsules daily, preferably in the morning with or without food. Consistency is key—NAD+ levels need to be maintained over time to see the full benefits. Many customers find morning dosing helps support their energy throughout the day without affecting sleep.

“One of my go-to ways to invest in myself is keeping my body’s cells in top shape. I take the NAD+ booster Basis—created by an MIT scientist—to optimize cellular metabolism and cellular energy.”

— Kirsty Godso, Nike Master Trainer
