SIRT (Sirtuins)

Sirtuins are a family of proteins found in our cells that act as regulators of important processes like aging, metabolism, and stress resistance. They function as enzymes that modify other proteins, influencing how cells respond to damage or wear over time. Sirtuins require a molecule called NAD+ to work, linking their activity to the cell’s energy status. They play a role in promoting health and longevity by helping repair DNA, controlling inflammation, and regulating how our bodies use energy—making them key players in maintaining cellular health.
