Episode 129: Charles Brenner – Discovered Nicotinamide as NAD Precursor, Dept. Chair at City of Hope

Habits and Hustle

Charles Brenner discovered Nicotinamide Riboside as a NAD Precursor and is the Alfred E Mann Family Foundation Chair in Diabetes and Cancer Metabolism at City of Hope National Medical Center. A “scientists’ scientist” Charles isn’t afraid to ruffle feathers in the defense of scientific truths. If it doesn’t have scientific backing in a legitimate peer-reviewed essay with double-blind studies and placebos Charles doesn’t want to hear about it. He explains his own scientific breakthroughs, the possible future for his work, and a bit of the new studies that have recently come out on the subject, while also answering Jen’s questions about the latest fads that may or may not have any scientific backing. Intermittent fasting, “calories in; calories out,” longevity, and more. Charles is the real deal. You won’t find him caving to the pressures of what’s “in” at the moment or who might be paying off who. He’s here for the science and science alone, and I hope you’re ready, cuz that’s exactly what this episode’s about.
