Nadh For Sports

Having energy is one of the key elements of being an athlete. Athletes are usually the ones who are most depleted of energy because of how much they exert.

NADH is the abbreviation for the naturally occurring biological substance, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide hydride. It’s biologically ranked coenzyme 1, and plays a vital role in energy production in the mitochondria, where it jump starts the production of ATP (cellular energy) in muscles. Therefore the more NADH a cell has, the more energy it can produce. While it has been known about for decades, only recently have scientists been able to put it in a stable form and thus able to be ingested as a pill. Because of its crucial role in energy production, it is the perfect supplement for athletes.

Athletes exert more energy than a sedentary person, and thus are often NADH depleted. Therefore a supplement of NADH will boost energy and improve all-around performance of physical activity. Research conducted by Birkmayer and colleagues on competitive athletes indicate that NADH enhances work capacity.

A study by the Department of Sports Medicine at the University clinic in Freiberg Germany, tested highly conditioned athletes. After supplementing with 30 mg of Coenzyme 1 per day, they experienced an increase in increase of 7% a muscular ATP, increased levels of oxygen in the bloodstream, lower lactate blood levels and improved recovery time

Here are some other ways that NADH is the perfect supplement for athletes:

* Increased energy
* Increased reaction time
* Greater mental acuity and alertness
* Improved oxygen capacity
