Our body has a natural rhythm where NAD levels fluctuate throughout the day rather than remaining constant, closely tied to our circadian rhythms. A study by Shin Imai and his team highlighted that NAD plays a crucial role in regulating our body's internal clock. The sirtuin gene, which is influenced by NAD, signals our body when it's time to eat or sleep.

For those considering NMN supplementation, it's recommended to take NMN in the morning when NAD level is naturally going up. Taking NMN e.g. at night might disrupt the NAD cycle and potentially affecting the sleep and overall well-being. This can be especially beneficial for frequent travelers trying to adjust to a new time zone, as a morning dose of NMN can help reset the body's internal clock and reduce jet lag.  <ref>[[27.12.2021 - Interview Dr. David Sinclair - Huberman Lab Podcast - The Biology of Slowing & Reversing Aging]]</ref>

* Human studies have shown that show that taking 1000 mg over 10 days raises your NAD levels about two-fold. But you can go as high as 2000 mg and triple the amount.
