New to Niagen? Start with What Is Niagen?
1. Raises NAD+ Levels
This is the core benefit. Human clinical studies have shown that nicotinamide riboside increases NAD+ levels in the body.
2. Supports Cellular Energy
NAD+ helps your mitochondria turn food into energy. More NAD+ means more support for that process. Many clients say they feel more energized.
3. Healthy Aging Support
NAD+ levels decline with age, and that decline is linked to many cellular changes of aging. Restoring NAD+ is a major focus of longevity research.
4. Supports Cellular Repair
NAD+ fuels enzymes involved in DNA repair and cellular maintenance, the behind-the-scenes work that keeps cells healthy.
5. Recovery Support
Training, travel and stress all put demands on your cells. Many active adults include Niagen in their recovery routine alongside cryotherapy and infrared sauna.
6. A Different Experience Than NAD+ IV
NAD+ IVs are infused slowly and can cause temporary flushing, pressure or nausea for some people. Many people find Niagen a more comfortable way to support NAD+. Read Niagen vs. NAD+ IV.
What the Research Says
Here's the honest picture:
- Strong: NR raises NAD+ levels in humans
- Promising but early: Research into how that translates to energy, aging and health outcomes
We'll always set realistic expectations.
