About Klotho
Acts as a co-receptor for FGF23, regulating phosphate and vitamin D metabolism. As a circulating hormone, inhibits insulin/IGF-1 signaling to extend lifespan, activates Nrf2 antioxidant pathways, and suppresses TGF-β fibrotic signaling.
About NAD+
NAD+ is a coenzyme central to cellular energy metabolism, serving as an electron carrier in glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation. It is also a required substrate for sirtuins (SIRT1–7) and PARP enzymes, which regulate DNA repair, gene expression, and mitochondrial biogenesis. NAD+ levels decline measurably with age; IV or subcutaneous delivery aims to restore intracellular pools more directly than oral precursors such as NMN or NR.
