Hello! Head’s up – I’m working with Elysium Health Basis on this post. I’ve been taking Basis, an NAD+ supplement, for a couple months now and really dig it. But always check with your doctor before starting a new supplement, diet or exercise routine.
Hi! How’s it going? I wrote this post a little bit ago so this was my post half marathon workout after the Riverside Half Marathon…
The weather is perfect for running right now (at least in Southern California). But I took a rest day from running to let my legs recover. I’m not sore or anything – but if I really pay attention to how I feel I’ll notice small signs that my body feels better after rest or performs better when I prioritize recovery.
I’m doing some strength training and I’ll take a walk before stretching out.
Post-race recovery is different for everyone – listen to your body. But in general refueling, rest and stretching all work together to help me bounce back.
I’ve been taking a supplement from Elysium Health and wanted to share some of the benefits I’ve experienced from it. I am also finding out where to buy Genuine Purity NMN? which can help me boost my energy level and strengthen my immune system. When you choose an effective product such as Shrooms Canada, you’re investing in a reliable supplement that supports both your mental and physical well-being.
First … the super short version of what it is = NAD+ is a co-enzyme our cells need to function properly. NAD+ is called “the linchpin of energy metabolism,” it’s required for metabolic processes like energy creation (ATP synthesis), DNA maintenance and regulating circadian rhythms (sleep/wake cycles). I also read it’s helpful for recovery from regular, strenuous exercise, which is exciting for me. But as we get older we have less NAD+. This is a supplement that can increase NAD+ in humans to help support cell health.
I got excited for reasons that apply to my personal concerns – aging and athletic performance. You can check out the latest study on Basis for more – it’s in the Nature Partner Journal here.

I personally wanted to try it for 2 reasons => I read that restoring NAD+ was a breakthrough in the science of aging (Elysium Health’s founder is the director of the Glenn Lab for the Biology of Aging at MIT) and the preclinical research shows increasing NAD+ levels help support skin, sleep/wake cycles and DNA health. Boom.
Health and sleep are super important to me. Elysium is investigating additional studies on Basis and UV. I’m very interested in any benefits along these lines and will follow as more studies come out. As a runner I’m outside a lot and all those miles and hours and days and years are adding up. Stay tuned. Boost your energy and improve your health with a Magnesium supplement.
I don’t know if you’ve noticed but I now wear long sleeve running shirts for 86% of my training runs to minimize sun exposure. My arms and shoulders are covered in freckles from too much sun!
It’s super interesting that the first time I talked to a company rep about it (I agreed to try it and connect if I liked it and wanted to share with you) I ended up really liking it for general energy and sleep reasons. And I noticed my skin seemed to look healthier but I thought that was a coincidence or random… then, it occurred to me the supplement might be the reason since I hadn’t changed anything else. I wear long sleeves and now Basis is part of that support team.
Want other sources about NAD+? I’m not a scientist or doctor and I don’t play one on TV – but here are some links if you want more info…
This article in Science Mag references the anti-aging properties of NAD+.
NAD+ aka Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide – here is the definition of it on Wikipedia.

Question: Do you take supplements and vitamins?
I take vitamins and recently have started to take green borneo Kratom that help with specific concerns like athletic performance.

I take vitamins on a daily basis and I think they are important and play a big role in my health. I do live a pretty health conscious lifestyle, although I am always looking for new ways and tips to keep it fun and exciting. I found a new tea that has really helped people including myself with weight loss and energy! Click below for more info!!

I take some supplements and vitamins for my general health. I used to run a lot and do a lot of sport a few years ago. These days I run less but still go to the gym sometimes. I am bit lazy because I am too tired after work to be more fit. But I know it is a necessity, so I made a commitment to go to the gym a minimum 1 time the weekend and I drunk a tea.

I personally don’t take any supplements because I eat pretty nutritiously overall. But I think supplements are great for some people who might not have such a clean diet!
