NAD+ & Antioxidant combines NAD+ 100mg, Glutathione 600mg, and MOTS-c 10mg, pairing the cell's primary energy cofactor with its primary antioxidant tripeptide, plus a mitochondrial-signaling peptide connecting the two.
NAD+ is studied for cellular energy metabolism and sirtuin pathway research. Glutathione is studied for oxidative-stress and cellular-detoxification research. MOTS-c is studied for AMPK-pathway signaling that connects energy status and cellular stress response.
All three vials ship individually labeled and independently HPLC-verified before batch release. This product is intended strictly for laboratory research use only and is not approved for human consumption.
The NAD+ & Antioxidant kit pairs the cell's primary energy cofactor with its primary antioxidant tripeptide, then adds a mitochondrial-signaling peptide to bring a third research angle into the same protocol. NAD+ 100mg, Glutathione 600mg, and MOTS-c 10mg together cover energy metabolism, oxidative stress, and mitochondrial signaling in one kit.
Cellular aging and mitochondrial research literature repeatedly returns to two systems: energy metabolism, governed largely by NAD+ availability, and oxidative stress, governed largely by glutathione levels. This kit pairs both directly, then adds MOTS-c, a mitochondrial-derived peptide, to represent the signaling layer that connects energy status and cellular stress response. Researchers who only need one of these three systems can find each sold individually elsewhere on the site, but protocols examining cellular-aging biology broadly tend to reference all three together.

NAD+ is the coenzyme central to cellular energy metabolism, studied extensively for its role in energy production and sirtuin pathway research, pathways strongly associated with cellular-aging literature. As cells age, NAD+ availability is frequently referenced as a limiting factor in mitochondrial energy output, which is part of why it anchors so much of the cellular-aging research category, including several other kits on the site like Metabolic Activation.
Glutathione is a naturally occurring tripeptide composed of glutamine, glycine, and cysteine, and is the primary antioxidant tripeptide referenced in oxidative-stress and cellular-detoxification research, a system studied as closely linked to, but mechanistically distinct from, NAD+ metabolism. Oxidative stress and impaired energy metabolism are frequently studied as reinforcing each other in cellular-aging models, which is the practical reason these two compounds are bundled rather than sold only as standalone research materials.
MOTS-c, encoded within the mitochondrial genome itself rather than the nuclear genome, is studied for AMPK pathway and broader metabolic-regulation research, connecting the energy and oxidative-stress systems the other two compounds represent. Its role in this kit is to represent the signaling layer, how a cell's mitochondria communicate their energy and stress status, that sits downstream of both raw NAD+ availability and glutathione-mediated antioxidant defense.
Cellular-aging research rarely isolates a single variable, since energy metabolism, oxidative stress, and mitochondrial signaling are studied as an interconnected system rather than three independent topics. Researchers building a baseline cellular-aging protocol frequently want all three represented from the outset, rather than adding compounds one at a time as the research question narrows. That is the specific use case this kit is built for.
