Molecules that can be taken in supplement form to increase NAD levels in the body are referred to by some as “NAD boosters.” Studies conducted over the past six decades suggest that the following are some of the many benefits associated with taking an NAD supplement:
Can Help Restore Mitochondrial Function
Helps Repair Blood Vessels —A 2018 mice study found that supplementation could aid in repair and growth of aged blood vessels. There’s also some evidence it can help manage heart disease risk factors like high blood pressure and high cholesterol.
May Improve Muscle Function — One animal study conducted in 2016 found that degenerative muscles had improved muscle function when supplemented with NAD+ precursors.
Potentially Helps Repair Cells and Damaged DNA — Some studies have found evidence that NAD+ precursor supplementation leads to an increase in DNA damage repair. NAD+ is broken down into two component parts, nicotinamide and ADP-ribose, which combine with proteins to repair cells.
May Help Improve Cognitive Function — Several studies conducted on mice have found that mice treated with NAD+ precursors experienced improvements in cognitive function, learning and memory. Findings have led researchers to believe that NAD supplement may help protect against cognitive decline/Alzheimer’s disease.
May Help Prevent Age-Related Weight Gain — A 2012 study showed that when mice fed a high-fat diet were given an NAD supplement, they gained 60 percent less weight than they did on the same diets without the supplement. One reason this may be true is that nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide helps regulate production of stress- and appetite-related hormones, thanks to its effects on circadian rhythms.
Precursors are molecules used in chemical reactions inside the body to create other compounds. There are a number of precursors of NAD+ that result in higher levels when you consume enough of them.
The preparation methods utilized by manufacturers worldwide of NAD powder are mainly divided into chemical synthesis method and biocatalytic method, among which biocatalytic method includes biological fermentation method and enzyme catalysis method. Enzyme catalysis method has gradually become the mainstream direction because of its advantages of green, environmental protection and pollution-free. And then the purity of NAD powder will reach 99% after the procedure of further purifying. But some NAD manufacturers tend to choose the multiple methods to develop the producing of NAD.
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.
First, inspect the factory. After some screening, NAD manufactures 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 NAD powder of high quality with the caterias of SGS. Secondly, the purity is tested. Purity is one of the most important parameters of NAD powder. If high purity NAD cannot be guaranteed, the remaining substances are likely to exceed the relevant standards. As the attached certificates demonstrates that the NAD powder produced by Bontac reach the purity of 99.9%. 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.
In the international market, NAD+ food supplements are in production in the United States, the Australian Food and Drug Administration has approved NAD+ products for sale, and Japanese NAD+ manufactures are devoted to extend the market share in China. Li Ka-shing invested HK$200 million in the US NAD manufacturer, whose NAD+ products are being sold by Watsons in Hong Kong! Then Mclane, a company owned by Warren Buffett also joined the NAD market.
1. Introduction At present, vaccine is the preferred option for the prevention of foot-and-mouth disease (FMD), for which the adjuvant is essential due to its strong role in boosting immune response associated with vaccine antigens. Herein, Rh2 liposomes (Rh2-L) are prepared by ethano injection methods, then loaded into a double emulsion adjuvant and emulsified into a Water-in-Oil-in-Water (W/O/W) emulsion, together with FMDV antigen, for the prevention of FMD. 2. About FMD FMD, also known as aphthous fever, is a viral and fulminating infectious disease in which the foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) violates hoofed livestock such as cattle, pigs and sheep. Since FMD is a zoonotic disease with high incidence and fast transmission speed, FMD vaccination is significant for those with long-term contact with livestock or low immunity such as the herders, veterinarians and children. 3.The significance of transform Rh2 into Rh2-L By transformation of Rh2 into Rh2-L, on the one hand, the poor solubility and hemolysis of Rh2 can be mitigated to a large extent. On the other hand, Rh2-L functions as a liposome. Noteworthily, liposome itself has been revealed to be an adjuvant in vaccine design to improve immune response by interacting with antigen-presenting cells (APCs), increasing the representation of immune stimulants to APCs, and stimulating innate immunity. 4. The immune-enhancing effect of Rh2-L on FMD vaccine Rh2-L has a immune-enhancing effect, as evidenced by an increase in humoral and cellular immune responses. In the FMDV model, the group of the FMD vaccine prepared with double emulsion adjuvants containing Rh2-L presents a more desirable protective effect relative to other groups. This group has a higher neutralizing antibody titer, stronger lymphocyte proliferation responses, and higher levels of cellular and humoral immune cytokine production, including IFN-γ and IL-4. 5. Conclusion Rh2-L can further boost the immune effect of the double emulsion adjuvant against foot-and-mouth disease, which may be a promising and powerful platform for subunit vaccine adjuvant. 6.

Introduction Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is hypervascular solid tumor with rapid deterioration, poor overall prognosis and a high recurrence rate, accounting for 90% of primary liver cancers, which has been perceived as the third most common cause of cancer-related mortality across the world. Notably, 20(S)-ginsenoside Rh2, an essential bioactive ingredient derived from ginseng, shows significant anti-tumor effects in various types of cancers, including HCC. About HCC There are diversified risk factors for HCC, mainly encompassing genetics, epigenetic alterations, chronic hepatitis B and C virus infections, aflatoxin exposure, smoking, obesity, and diabetes mellitus. The major therapies for HCC involve surgical excision, ablation, transcatheter arterial chemoembolization, radiotherapy, transplantation, etc. However, the overall prognosis of patients remains unsatisfactory due to the high recurrence and metastasis of HCC. Transplantation is the most effective one, yet rare matched donor livers and high surgical cost limit its application. In addition, more than 70% of advanced patients are not suitable for transplantation, either due to tumor burden or poor liver function. The anti-angiogenetic role of ginsenoside Rh2 in HCC Given that HCC has prominent characteristics of abnormal vascularization and angiogenesis and HCC endothelial cells are prone to forming new blood vessels in situ and supporting metastasis, targeting endothelial cell function to repress angiogenesis may be a highly promising treatment avenue for HCC. Remarkably, 20(S)-ginsenoside Rh2 has effective anti-angiogenic activity, which can exert anti-proliferative, pro-apoptotic, and cell cycle-modulating properties in HCC cell line HepG2 by reducing VEGF and MMP-2 expressions. Repressive role of 20(S)-ginsenoside Rh2 in HCC via GPC3/Wnt/β-catenin signaling 20(S)-ginsenoside Rh2 inhibits HCC growth via suppressing Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway-related markers (β-catenin, c-myc, and cyclin D1) and GPC3, a cell-surface glycoprotein specifically overexpressed in HCC patients. Specifically, GPC3 silencing promotes 20(S)-ginsenoside Rh2-induced anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic effects in HepG2 cells, concomitant with the downregulation of β-catenin, c-myc and cyclin D1. Conclusion 20(S)-ginsenoside Rh2 not only inhibits angiogenesis by downregulating VEGF and MMP-2 expressions, but also targets GPC3 by downregulating the Wnt/β- catenin signaling pathway in HCC cells, opening up new opportunities for HCC treatment.
