This new work with NAD Therapy is very exciting and I think is right on target. It is indeed an energy-metabolic-deficiency (EMD) because in the absence of this coenzyme cycle almost all the reactions in the body run down... I congratulate Theo Verwey and his colleagues for this remarkable advance in using this concept and in using a simple test, the ratio of pyruvate to lactate as a diagnostic measure, to indicate the dose, duration of treatment etc.

The ratio of lactate to pyruvate reflects the NAD/NADH ratio and is useful in distinguishing primary defects. Measured enzymatically in blood or CSF as an index of defects of glucose oxidation (fed state) or gluconeogenesis (fasted). (Center Inherited Disorders Energy Metabolism at CWR University School of Medicine, Cleveland, Ohio).
