When we don't get enough vitamin B12, it can: Reduce ATP production, potentially contributing to mitochondrial dysfunction and insulin resistance Cause megaloblastic anemia, characterized by abnormally large, hemoglobin-poor red blood cells that die prematurely
Increased NAD levels: Cellular studies show that 5-Amino-1MQ increases NAD concentrations, which improves mitochondrial function and cellular energy efficiency
