How To Make Sure Your Supplements Support Healthy Ageing
Sharp mind, strong joints, healthy skin — the right stack supports all of it.

Ageing well doesn't happen by accident, and the right supplements can play a bigger role in getting you there than you might think. But there's a difference between mindlessly taking something each day and actually understanding what it does for you. Whether you're reaching for collagen to support your skin and joints, glutathione to combat oxidative stress, or NAD+ to restore cellular energy, knowing how each one works — and how they work together — is where the real, long-term benefit begins. No one understands that better than Codeage,
“Healthy ageing is about supporting the body proactively, not reacting later,” says Stephanie Eisenberg, vice president of sales at Codeage. “We believe longevity starts with daily foundational habits that support energy, mobility, cognition, metabolism, and resilience over time.”
With that in mind, here are five under-the-radar supplements that could be worth adding to your stack. “These products collectively support key systems associated with healthy ageing,” says Eisenberg, “including cellular energy production, skin and connective tissue integrity, metabolic health, muscle maintenance, and antioxidant support.”
Liposomal NAD+
First up: Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, or NAD+, is one of the body's most important molecules for cellular energy — and one of the first to decline with age. When levels drop, mitochondrial function suffers, taking cognitive sharpness and physical resilience with it. Codeage's Liposomal NAD+ uses a phospholipid delivery system to get the active ingredient to your cells far more efficiently than standard capsules. It also includes betaine anhydrous to support healthy homocysteine metabolism — a key marker increasingly linked to cognitive decline and cardiovascular health as we age.
Multi Collagen Peptides
Collagen is the most abundant protein in the body, and it's estimated that production starts declining from your mid-twenties. “It helps support connective tissues, including skin, joints, bones, and tendons through multiple collagen types,” says Eisenberg. This powder brings together five types of collagen (I, II, III, V, and X) sourced from grass-fed bovine, wild-caught fish, free-range chicken, beef bone broth, and eggshell membrane — covering skin, joints, bone, and connective tissue health in a convenient single daily scoop. Hydrolysed for easy absorption and NSF Certified, it's unflavoured and handily mixes into anything.
Liposomal Urolithin A
Urolithin A is a compound the gut produces when it metabolises polyphenols from foods like pomegranate — but the conversion process is inefficient in most people, meaning few of us get meaningful amounts from diet alone. This formula delivers 500mg of Urolithin A, paired with resveratrol, CoQ10, and betaine via liposomal delivery for better absorption.
"It's formulated to support healthy ageing by helping promote mitochondrial function and cellular energy production, key biological processes associated with muscle health, vitality, and longevity," says Eisenberg. In other words, it works at the cellular level — making it one of the more forward-looking additions to a longevity stack.
Liposomal Glutathione
Often referred to as the body's master antioxidant, glutathione plays a central role in neutralising oxidative stress and supporting liver detoxification — both of which become increasingly important as we age. This formula uses Setria® L-Glutathione, a patented, clinically studied form, delivered liposomally to address the notoriously poor absorption that limits most standard glutathione supplements. It's NSF Certified, clean, and additive-free.
Liposomal NMN
Nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) is a direct precursor to NAD+, and essentially gives the body the building blocks to restore its cellular energy levels. Where NAD+ supplementation works from the outside in, NMN works from the inside, out. Paired with betaine anhydrous to support homocysteine metabolism, and delivered via a sunflower-based liposomal matrix, Codeage's Liposomal NMN is a clean, vegan-friendly option for those looking to support energy and metabolic resilience long-term.
Just remember that ageing well isn't about chasing a magic bullet — it's about building a foundation, consistently, over time. The right supplements won't do the work for you, but understood and used well, they can make a meaningful difference to how you feel in the years ahead.
