Alora Naturals Nicotinamide Riboside 30cap

Nicotinamide Riboside (NR) is a nucleoside made out of niacinamide and ribose. It is a form of Vitamin B3 and is a precursor to nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide which means it is needed to make NAD+, increased NAD+ then activates the following enzymes.

• Sirtuins, a potential anti-aging target
• PARPs, which may repair damaged DNA
• CD38, a receptor in the immune system which is involved in glucose-induced insulin secretion

Because Sirt1 activates PGC-1alpha, scientists are investigating if NR supplementation stimulates mitochondrial biogenesis and improves mitochondrial health. Scientists have explored its effects on generating energy in mitochondrial-dense tissues like muscle, brain, and liver.

Nicotinamide riboside is a member of the vitamin B3 family, which also includes niacin and niacinamide. It's found in fruits, vegetables, meat, and milk.

Nicotinamide riboside is changed in the body to a chemical called NAD+. The body needs NAD+ for many processes to work normally. Low levels can cause health problems. Taking nicotinamide riboside can help raise low NAD+ levels.

People use nicotinamide riboside for anti-aging effects, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, Alzheimer disease, obesity, and many other purposes, but there is no good scientific evidence to support these uses.

Don't confuse nicotinamide riboside with niacin, niacinamide, or NADH. These are all related but are not the same.

Key Health Benefits of Nicotinamide Riboside:

• Stimulates NAD+ Metabolism
• Improves Exercise Performance
• Boosts Cognitive Health
