The Role of Nicotinamide Riboside in Supporting Aging & Health

, ,

Kurt N Woeller, DO

Nicotinamide, along with niacin (vitamin B3), linked nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) production, are key components of the quinolinic acid-kynurenic pathway. Various supplemental forms of these nutrients exist that can be taken to support important cellular chemistry for energy production, etc. A form of nicotinamide called nicotinamide riboside (NR) is recognized as an important form of nicotinamide with usefulness for various conditions, including cardiovascular, neurodegenerative, and metabolic disorders. This lecture by Kurt N. Woeller, D.O. of Integrative Medicine Academy will explain the biochemistry of the quinolinic-kynurenic pathway in support of NAD, and the usefulness of niacinamide in the form of NR.

Kurt Woeller, DO

Glyphosate, used as an organophosphate herbicide on genetically modified agricultural plants, has many adverse biochemical manipulating properties. This webinar will discuss the link between glyphosate use, oxalic acid, and associated problems at the mitochondria level.

Clinical Considerations for Dysautonomia

, , , ,

Dysautonomia, associated with autonomic nervous system dysfunction, can manifest in various ways, including chronic fatigue, cognitive problems, cardiovascular dysfunction, e.g. low blood pressure, elevated heart rate, and mental health disorders. Lack of Thiamine (Vitamin B1), as one possibility of dysautonomia, can compromise mitochondrial function leading to imbalanced activity within the autonomic nervous system (ANS). There are other considerations too such as Dopamine Beta-Hydroxylase deficiency. This lecture will focus on certain aspects of dysautonomia.
