Description

Nicotinamide Riboside Powder (NR-Cl) is an orally bioavailable form of a vitamin B3-metabolite naturally found in the human body. The substance has garnered an increasing amount of interest among researchers as a multiple health benefits associated with the metabolite have emerged, such as for maintaining and supporting cellular health, immune system, cardiovascular function, ATP energy production, and DNA regeneration. The NR-CL for is a newer, stable salt for of the molecule.

Low levels of Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD+) are associated with multiple age-related health concerns, including heart disease, neurodegenerative disease, failing eyesight, and diabetes. More broadly NAD+ is key to many biological processes, such as repairing damaged DNA, strengthening cellular defenses, converting food into energy, and setting the circadian rhythm of the body. Since our levels of NAD+ in the body naturally declines as we age, counteracting the effects become increasingly important as we mature.

NR-Cl exhibits certain properties that distinguishes it from the two principal forms of vitamin B3, nicotinic acid and nicotinamide. While both of these B3 vitamins does raise NAD+ levels to some extent, NR-Cl exhibits unique properties that makes it superior to increasing NAD+. When nicotinamide riboside powder is consumed daily, it sustains higher levels of the critical cellular resource. The precursor metabolite functions by supporting your cells during everyday life and help to counteract the effects of time and stress.

Function

1. DNA Repair and Integrity. NAD+ is involved in DNA repair mechanisms. Adequate levels of NAD+ support the repair of damaged DNA, contributing to genomic stability and reducing the risk of mutations associated with aging and diseases.
2. Anti-Aging Effects. NR is often associated with potential anti-aging effects. As cells age, NAD+ levels tend to decline, impacting cellular functions. By boosting NAD+, NR may help address age-related cellular changes and promote healthier aging.
3. Increasing Energy Metabolism. By supporting NAD+ levels, NR plays a role in energy metabolism. It may contribute to efficient energy production in cells, making it of interest for individuals seeking enhanced vitality and physical performance.
4. Mitochondrial Function. NR has been studied for its potential to enhance mitochondrial function. Mitochondria are the powerhouse of cells, responsible for energy production. Improved mitochondrial function is associated with increased energy levels and overall cellular health.
5. Replenishing Cellular NAD+. Nicotinamide Riboside is a precursor to NAD+, a crucial coenzyme involved in various cellular processes. NAD+ is essential for energy production, DNA repair, and regulation of key cellular activities. Supplementation with NR is believed to enhance NAD+ levels, supporting overall cellular function.
6. Neurological Health. NR is being investigated for its potential neuroprotective effects. It may support cognitive function and protect nerve cells from age-related damage. Studies have explored its use in conditions like Alzheimer’s disease and other neurodegenerative disorders.
7. Cardiovascular Health. Some research suggests that NR may have cardiovascular benefits. It may support blood vessel function, regulate blood pressure, and contribute to overall cardiovascular health. These effects may reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases.
8. Sirtuin Activation. NR has been linked to the activation of sirtuins, a class of proteins associated with longevity and cellular health. Sirtuins play a role in various cellular processes, including DNA repair, inflammation regulation, and energy metabolism.
9. Metabolic Health. NR has been studied for its potential in improving metabolic health. It may help regulate blood sugar levels, improve insulin sensitivity, and reduce the risk of metabolic disorders, such as type 2 diabetes.
10. Muscles and Exercise Performance. NR may contribute to muscle function and exercise performance. By supporting energy metabolism and mitochondrial function, NR supplementation has been associated with improved muscle endurance and exercise capacity.
11. Skin Health. NAD+ is involved in cellular repair and regeneration, which extends to skin health. NR supplementation may contribute to healthier and more resilient skin, potentially reducing the signs of aging.
