As we age, our bodies produce less niacinamide, an essential compound for energy. While some younger individuals can synthesize enough internally, this ability often declines with time, sometimes to near zero in older individuals.

Though niacinamide is not a proven “longevity” molecule, it plays a crucial role in maintaining energy at all ages, especially later in life. Ensuring adequate intake can help support daily vitality as natural synthesis decreases.
