1.Improved energy levels
Not only does NADH act as an important coenzyme in aerobic respiration, the [H] of NADH also carries a large amount of energy. Studies have demonstrated that extracellular use of NADH promotes increased intracellular ATP levels, suggesting that NADH penetrates cell membranes and elevates intracellular energy levels. On a macro level, exogenous supplementation of NADH helps to restore energy and enhance appetite. The increase in energy levels in the brain also helps to improve mental performance and sleep quality. NADH has been used overseas to improve chronic fatigue syndrome, increase exercise endurance, jet lag and other areas.
2.Cellular protection
NADH is a strong antioxidant that naturally occurs in cells and reacts with free radicals to inhibit lipid peroxidation, protecting mitochondrial membranes and mitochondrial function. It has been found that NADH can reduce oxidative stress in cells caused by various factors such as radiation, drugs, toxic substances, strenuous exercise and ischemia, thus protecting vascular endothelial cells, hepatocytes, cardiomyocytes, fibroblasts and neurons. Therefore, injectable or oral NADH is used clinically to improve cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and as an adjunct to cancer radiotherapy. Topical NADH has been shown to be effective in the treatment of rosacea and contact dermatitis.
3.Promotion of neurotransmitter production
Studies have shown that NADH significantly promotes the production of the neurotransmitter dopamine, a chemical signal that is essential for short-term memory, involuntary movements, muscle tone and spontaneous physical responses. It also mediates the release of growth hormone and determines muscle movement. Without sufficient dopamine, muscles become stiff. Parkinson's disease, for example, is caused in part by a disruption of dopamine synthesis in brain cells. Preliminary clinical data suggest that NADH can help improve the symptoms of Parkinson's disease [9]. NADH also promotes the biosynthesis of norepinephrine and serotonin, showing good potential for use in the relief of depression and Alzheimer's disease.
1. Prevention and treatment of viral-induced inflammatory storms
Scientists have found after extensive research that neo-coronavirus has a mechanism similar to SARS virus to activate inflammatory vesicles NLRP3. and the activation of NLRP3 produces more inflammatory factors, generating excessive inflammation and thus triggering a deadly cytokine storm. This problem can be well addressed by NAD+, which inhibits the activity of NF-κB inflammatory pathway and NLRP3 inflammasome by increasing the activity of sirtuins (SIRT1, SIRT2 and SIRT3), thus preventing cytokine storm caused by excessive inflammation. Therefore, Sinclair and other scientists believe that increasing the concentration of NAD+ may play an important role in the prevention and treatment of neocoronavirus and other viral infections.
2. Restoration of virus-induced metabolic disorders
NAD+ is an essential coenzyme for many cellular energy metabolic pathways, present in every cell of the body, involved in thousands of reactions, and an important player in maintaining cellular viability. In the COVID-19 infection model, NAD+ and NMN supplementation was found to be effective in alleviating cell death and protecting the lung.
The action of supplemental NADH is unclear. Oral NADH supplementation has been used to combat simple fatigue as well as such mysterious and energy-sapping disorders as chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia. Researchers are also studying the value of NADH supplements for improving mental function in people with Alzheimer's disease, and minimizing physical disability and relieving depression in people with Parkinson's disease. Some healthy individuals also take NADH supplements orally to improve concentration and memory capacity, as well as to increase athletic endurance. However, to date there have been no published studies to indicate that using NADH is in any way effective or safe for these purposes
First, inspect the factory. After some screening, NADH companies that directly face consumers pay more attention to brand building. Therefore, for a good brand, quality is the most important thing, and the first thing to control the quality of raw materials is to inspect the factory. Bontac company actually manufacturing NADH powder of high quality with the caterias of SGS. Secondly, the purity is tested. Purity is one of the most important parameters of NMN powder. If high purity NMN cannot be guaranteed, the remaining substances are likely to exceed the relevant standards. As the attached certificates demonstrates that the NADH powder produced by Bontac reach the purity of 99%. Finally, a professional test spectrum is needed to prove it. Common methods for determining the structure of an organic compound include Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (NMR) and high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS). Usually through the analysis of these two spectra, the structure of the compound can be preliminarily determined.
1. Introduction Disrupted nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) metabolism is increasingly deemed to be one of risk factor for amendable cardiovascular disorders. A substantial evidence has mirrored that restoring NAD+ stock and energy metabolism may be effective in alleviating the symptoms of patients with heart failure (HF), one of the typical cardiovascular disease after myocardial infarction (MI). 2. About HF HF has dominant clinical features of ventricular filling or ejection impairment, concomitant with abnormalities in cardiac structure/function. This disorder afflicts about 38 million patients across the world, and the number of HF patients is on the rise with the age, posing a great threat to the life of patients and bringing huge economic burden on the patient family and society. In terms of drug therapies of HF, the "golden triangle" of beta blockers, ACEI/ARB, and aldosterone receptor antagonists has long been the preferred option. Despite significant improvement on the survival of patients, the 5-year mortality rate remains at 50%. Hence, it is of great significance to seek novel way with high efficacy and safety. NAD supplements may be an effective choice for alleviating HF. 3. Research protocol For further verification of the efficacy of NAD+, MI-induced HF models are constructed in male Sprague-Dawley rats and beagles herein. Subsequently, the left anterior descending arteries of MI-induced HF animals are ligated for 1 week, followed by 4-week treatment with or without low/medium/high dose of NAD+ and the positive control drug LCZ696, an angiotensin receptor blocker-neprilysin inhibitor with an cardioprotective effect after MI. 4. The efficacy of NAD on rats and beagles with MI-induced HF NAD+ shows the equivalent efficacy as LCZ696 in the treatment of MI-induced HF, or even better than LCZ696 at the medium and high doses. In rat/beagle HF models, the heart mass index, heart function, and myocardial fibrosis in the infarct marginal zone are dose-dependently improved post administration of NAD or LCZ696, as manifested by decreased end-systolic volume, end-systolic dimension, creatine kinase and lactic dehydrogenase, as well as the increased ejection fractions, fractional shortening, cardiac output, and stroke volume. In addition, the downregulation of left ventricular blood pressure in the HF model animals is ameliorated post administration of NAD or LCZ696. 5. Conclusion In rat and beagle MI-induced HF models, NAD+ conspicuously alleviates myocardial hypertrophy and cardiac function, represses myocardial fibrosis, and reduces the myocardial infarction, laying a theoretical foundation for the clinical application of energy metabolism therapy with NAD+.

1. Introduction Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) has been unveiled to be essential for embryonic development. Patients with genetic variants in the NAD+ de novo synthesis pathway often have congenital NAD deficiency disorder (CNDD), a multisystem condition inherited in an autosomal recessive manner. In the context of NAD+ deficiency, all organs and systems, not just vertebrae, heart, kidneys, and limbs, may be affected. 2. The association between NAD synthetase 1 (NADSYN1) and CNDD Individuals delivering biallelic NADSYN1 variants share similar clinical features to those with CNDD. Up till now, almost all of the identified CNDD cases can be attributed to biallelic loss-of-function variants in any of 3 nonredundant genes of the NAD de novo synthesis pathway, including kynureninase (KYNU), 3-hydroxyanthranilate 3,4-dioxygenase (HAAO), or NADSYN1. Among individuals with CNDD identified to date, those with biallelic pathogenic NADSYN1 variants are the most diverse in phenotype. 3. The impact of NADSYN1 variants upon enzymatic activity and phenotype Specifically, NADSYN1 can catalyse the amidation of nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide (NaAD) to NAD. Biallelic pathogenic variants in NADSYN1 cause a metabolic block in both the de novo pathway and the Preiss-Handler pathway, leading to NAD deficiency. Biallelic NADSYN1 loss-of-function variants impact the NAD metabolome of humans. Post-birth phenotypes involve feeding difficulties, developmental delay, short stature, etc. 4. Mouse embryogenesis disrupted by the loss of NADSYN1 In NADSYN1-/- mouse embryos, NAD-dependent malformations occur when maternal dietary NAD precursors are limited during gestation. The affected Nadsyn1-/- embryos most frequently present malformations of the kidneys, eyes, and lungs. 5. The preventative effect of amidated NAD precursor supplementation against CNDD NADSYN1-dependent embryo loss and malformation in mice are preventable by dietary supplementation of amidated NAD precursors (NMN and NAM) during pregnancy. Maternal diet–derived NAD precursors primarily determine the development of healthy embryos. 6. Conclusion NAD-boosting supplements are essential for individuals with biallelic loss-of-function variants in NADSYN1. Maternal NAD precursor supplementation, to some extent, can reduce the risk of developing CNDD. Reference Szot JO, Cuny H, Martin EM, et al.

Introduction Targeting the autophagy-NAD axis has been reported be a viable therapeutic strategy for Niemann-Pick type C1 (NPC1) disease. The study suggests that both pharmacological rescue of autophagy deficiency and supplementation of NAD precursors can restore NAD+ level, improve the viability of fibroblasts in NPC1 patients, and induce pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived cortical neurons. About NPC1 disease Niemann-Pick disease, a hereditary chronic neurologic disorder, is categorized into three types, with NPC1 occurring in more different populations. NPC1 disease, an autosomal recessive disorder, is characterized by an enlarged spleen, neurological dysfunctions, and the accumulation of lipids such as sphingolipids and cholesterol. The disease is most commonly caused by mutations in the NPC1 gene which encodes a cholesterol transporter on the lysosomal membrane. Targeting the autophagy-NAD axis: a promising approach for NPC1 disease The loss of NPC1 function leads to impaired autophagy/mitophagy, resulting in NAD+ depletion, mitochondrial depolarisation, and apoptotic cell death. However, the use of autophagy inducers (celecoxib or memantine) and NAD precursors has shown promise in ameliorating the phenotypes observed in mouse and human NPC1 model cells. Notably, NAD precursor supplementation acts downstream of autophagy dysfunction. Specifically, this supplementation promotes the viability of Npc1-/- MEFs and restores the apoptotic cell death in Npc1-/- cells, but exhibits no or mild upregulation of autophagy function in mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) and primary fibroblasts. However, autophagy activators not only rescue NAD depletion and cell death in Npc1-/- MEFs, but also restore autophagic flux and mitophagy deficit. Targeting the autophagy-NAD axis can promote the survival of NPC1 patient-derived primary fibroblasts and protect against cell death of NPC1 patient iPSC-derived cortical neurons. Strikingly, boosting NAD+ level is believed to improve mitochondrial function and ATP generation, potentially replenishing lysosomal degradation capacity and restoring autophagic function in NPC1-mutant neurons. NPC1 patient-derived primary fibroblasts NPC1 patient iPSC-derived cortical neurons Conclusion Both autophagy inducers and NAD precursors are effective in ameliorating NPC1 disease, and combining the two may complement their strengths and maximize their effectiveness, opening new insights into the neurodegenerative conditions associated with autophagy and NAD+ defects.
