Participants: Adults over the age of 60
Dosage: 3,750 mg of niacin twice daily (after gradual dose increase), 150 mg of dihydroberberine twice daily, 50 mg of taxifolin (with 500 mg of vitamin C and 15 mg of zinc) twice daily, 50 mg of tocotrienols twice daily

A combination of supplements, including the NAD+ precursor nicotinic acid, improves cholesterol, allowing some participants to cease taking statins.  

Study conducted by Professor Emeritus Joseph Keenan, MD, at the University of Minnesota. 

Nicotinic Acid

Model: Male C57BL/6 mice given continuous alcohol for 4 weeks 
Dosage: 350 mg/kg/day of nicotinamide riboside chloride for 2 weeks

The NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) precursor nicotinamide riboside chloride (NRC) counteracts neuronal damage caused by alcohol consumption in mice.

NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) may contribute to healthy cellular aging by enhancing biological energy flow, according to the newly formulated energy resistance principle.


Aging &amp; Longevity

Model: Male Sprague-Dawley rats 
Dosage: 400 mg/kg of magnesium L-theanine and 600 mg/kg of nicotinamide riboside administered orally for 40 days

Scientists find that treating rats with magnesium L-theanine and nicotinamide riboside (NR) counteracts stress-induced metabolic, gut, and liver aging.
