Whenever I take like new supplements on whenever is anything up in the body is like this is the place where I'm gonna go to I'm gonna just like check in on you because basically you just checking on energy frequencies in the body. And I think it's still maybe a little bit too fringe for most people to kind of take series. But I'm really, really hoping that over the next few years it becomes more mainstream because it's just such a simple way, really to get some guidance on what works in your body. You're listening to the high performance health podcast helping you optimise your health performance and at longevity. My name is Angela Foster, and I'm a former corporate lawyer and high performance health coach. Each week, I bring you cutting edge bio hacks, inspiring insights and high performance habits to unlock optimal health performance and longevity. So excited that you've chosen to join me today.

Hi, friends. It was my birthday yesterday. So I had fun celebrating. I'm currently out in Sri Lanka, with my family having a lovely time. Last year, many of you will know that I tested my biological age to see how I was ageing in comparison to my chronological age. And I did the test with glycan age and found that I had a biological age of 20, which is amazing. Because I've just turned 48. So it looks like all of the things that I have been doing have been paying off in terms of my nutrition and my fitness, my sleep optimization. That one always needs a little bit more work, I think than I would like but it didn't seem to impact too much. I definitely focus on the quality of my sleep. And really good exercise, muscle mass, things like that to improve glucose sensitivity, my nutrition, my hormone health, all of these things make a huge difference. But I often get asked what supplements do I take a long side. And that's what you're gonna find out about today because for a number of months, I have been taking a supplement called NAD regen, which is designed to enhance NAD levels within the body. And NAD is a coenzyme that consists of Adeline and nicotine amide. And essentially, it's part of the electron transport chain in the mitochondria. So it is really essential for energy production. It's sometimes been dubbed the molecule of youth, largely because levels of NAD plus dramatically drop as we age. And there also seem to be an implication around this around the sort of stage of menopause for women as well. So being the age I am that is something I'm also focused on. But I have seen a huge uptick in my energy since taking NAD region. That's currently why I have biostat labs, the maker of NAD region as sponsors of the show, because I love it so much. And I definitely want to be sharing it with more of you because of the benefits I've been experiencing from NAD region, but also from a couple of their other supplements including cell shield, which contains chlorella and really high levels of glutathione. And so I tend to take that before bed.

And it helps with detoxification and really helps with sort of cellular enhancement while you're sleeping at night. And then I also take their GED aid, which is a really super stack of ingredients to help improve glucose sensitivity. I tend to take that before my highest carb containing meal of the day. And I wanted to share with you the science behind these formulations because they are pretty unique. And I think that what a lot of people don't realise when they're thinking about NAD is that you do need to consider methylation and not actually overstretching methylation capacity. So NAD region has quite a unique formulation. It has NAD three in it to help with this. It also helps to raise the nampt enzymes to recycle NAD via the salvage pathway. It has resveratrol and it also has spermidine to address inflammation and a welcome side effect of that has been the hair growth that I've been experiencing. Now as sponsors of the show. biostat labs are very kindly giving away a free bottle of GED aid when you purchase two bottles of NAD region. To claim that offer all you need to do is go to biostat labs.com forward slash Angela that's biostat labs.com forward slash Angela. And in this episode you're going to be hearing about the science behind these formulations and a whole lot more. My guest is mighty Breen on mele, who is a holistic health and nutrition coach. And she also works as the innovation executive for bio stack labs and helps them to formulate the latest longevity products on the market, as well as creating educational content for biostat labs. She's also the founder of the super health playbook, where she runs group coaching programmes called only 66 days where she teaches women to achieve optimal health by building habits over 66 days in small group settings with support accountability and interactive educational workshops and live strength classes. And in today's episode we're going to be diving into the supplements and also some more of the things that biostat labs have coming out, which are really, really exciting. So without further delay, let's get stuck into the science behind optimising NAD with mighty green. So my day, I am so glad that we finally got this sorted in the calendar. I think we met. First time, I want to say maybe a year and a half. Was it two years ago, the health optimization summit in London?
