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.
Introduction The gut is a diverse and dynamic microbiotic system. There are about 100 trillion microorganisms in the gut, which is mainly composed of anaerobic, partially anaerobic, and aerobic bacteria. In the process of ageing, the intestinal tract may show an increase in the permeability of the epithelial barrier and impaired tight junction proteins. Notably, supplementing β-Nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) to elevate NAD+ level has been proved to prolong life and maintain the colon health in ageing Mice. Research protocol Zmpste24−/− mice are frequently used in the construction of the prematurely ageing model, due to their features of slow weight gain, malnutrition and progressive hair loss, with a short median survival of about 20 weeks. Herein, to fathom out the role of NMN in maintaining the colon health of ageing mice, Zmpste24−/− mice aged 5-7 weeks are orally gavaged with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), or NMN at 100/300 mg kg−1 every other day until natural death. Likewise, natural ageing C57BL/6 mice aged 10 months old are subjected to the oral gavage of PBS or NMN at 300 mg kg−1, serving as the the control. During experiments, the body weight of mice is recorded, and their frailty index and fecal samples are detected. The life span and frailty indices in Zmpste24-/- mice after NMN treatment NMN extends the healthy and median lifespan of Zmpste24−/−improves the Zmpste24−/− ageing phenotype. Specifically, the median lifespan of the mice is increased from 21.4 weeks to 25.7 weeks post NMN intervention, with more than 20% growth. Also, NMN effectively increases body weight. Meanwhile, mice have better overall health after NMN treatment, as manifested by the slowly increasing trend towards Sinclair’s frailty indices. The role of NMN in the intestinal tract of ageing mice NMN adjusts the activity of genes involved in ageing mice colons. Simply put, in the presence of NMN supplement, the protein level of transcriptional regulator P53 is reduced, while the expression levels of ageing marker Sirt1, NMNAT2 and NMNAT3 are elevated. NMN improves the pathology of intestinal epithelial cells and intestinal permeability, as evidenced by the upregulation of intestinal tight junction protein (Claudin1,) and the number of goblet cells, the elevated release of anti-inflammatory factor (IL-10), and the increasing beneficial intestinal bacteria (Akkermansia muciniphila and Bifidobacterium pseudolongum). Conclusion NMN supplementation exerts a protective effect on colon mucosa by controlling the activity of genes involved in ageing, intestinal stem cell differentiation and improving intestinal flora homeostasis, which may be a viable strategy for maintaining healthy ageing in the gut.

1. Introduction The gut microbiota has long been regarded as one of the key elements contributing to the regulation of host health. Any changes in the composition or quality of the gut microbiota may have physiological consequences for the host. To determine the effect of sweetener stevia (also known as stevioside) on the gut microbiome of healthy population, the stool samples are collected from healthy participants who consume with or without five drops of the sweetener stevia twice daily. Following analyses of 16S rRNA sequencing method, no large-scale change is found in the gut microbiota post 12 weeks of consumption with stevia, hinting the safety of stevia. 2. Insignificant changes in the alpha or beta diversity following consumption of stevia It is discovered that there is no significant difference in alpha diversity (in terms of observed taxa, evenness and Shannon Index) and beta diversity (with regard to PCoA, PERMANOVA, and Jaccard Index) between groups. Nevertheless, PCoA plots shows strong separation along the x-axis. In addition, the community composition in each group is relatively even over time and equally diverse. 3. No clear difference in relative abundances of taxa At the genus level, relative abundances are similar between the control and stevia groups. No major difference is observed in relative abundances at the class, order and family level. Strikingly, butyricoccus is the only one identified taxon exhibiting significant difference at baseline, but not after 12 weeks of stevia consumption. Moreover, Collinsella and Aldercreutzia are two coprococcus species identified as explicitly different at baseline (one higher and one lower when comparing stevia vs. control), which however are significantly elevated after 12 weeks of consumption with stevia. 4. The safe intake volume of sweetener steviol glycosides In the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), there is a Panel on Food Additives and Flavourings (FAF), which is responsible for evaluating the safety of food additives and establishing acceptable daily intake levels for safe use. Steviol glycosides, one of the extract from stevia, is evaluated by the FAF as well. In accordance to the latest toxicological test, this sweeter is not genotoxic and carcinogenic, without any adverse effects on the human reproductive system or growing children. The expert group has set the acceptable daily intake (ADI) of steviol glycosides at 4 milligrams per kilogram of body weight per day, which is consistent with the level determined by the Joint Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) administered by the US Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and the World Health Organization (WHO). 5. Conclusion Regular, long-term consumption of stevia does not overtly alter the composition of the human gut microbiotia. Stevia can be safe as long as the intake volume is controlled appropriately.

1. Introduction Ginseng has always been highly perceived as a valuable traditional Chinese medicine in China. Currently, much attention also has been paid to ginsenosides, the main active ingredients extracted from ginseng. Strikingly, ginsenoside Rh2, one of the most representative bioactive ginsenosides in Panax ginseng, has immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, and anti-tumor activities, showing a therapeutic role in numerous diseases. 2. The therapeutic effect of ginsenoside Rh2 * Enhance the immune function of the human body Ginsenoside Rh2 has the effect of enhancing the immune function of the patient's body. Notewothily, it can effectively reduce the toxicity left by chemotherapy in the human body by improving immunity. *Ameliorate neuropathic pain Intrathecal administration of ginsenoside Rh2 significantly attenuates SNI-induced mechanical allodynia and thermal hyperalgesia. The antinociceptive effect of Rh2 continued until 10 days after SNI surgeryn, showing a potential application value in pain therapy. Figure 1 Intrathecal injection of Rh2 inhibits neuropathic pain in mice * Suppress the inflammation Previous studies have revealed that ginsenoside Rh2 can inhibit spared nerve injury (SNI)-induced increase of proinflammatory cytokines (tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-1 and interleukin-6), and significantly inhibit lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced activation of BV2 cells. Figure 2 Intrathecal injection of Rh2 reduced expression of proinflammatory cytokines IL-1, IL-6 and TNF-α in SNI mice * Promote the synthesis of albumin Ginsenoside Rh2 acts as an immune regulator to promote the synthesis of albumin, which can provide heat for the human body, protect and stabilize the immunoglobulin in the blood. * Inhibit the growth of tumor cells Ginsenoside Rh2 exhibits a chemical structure similar to that of dexamethasone. In in vitro studies, it can suppress the growth and viability of various cancer cells, induce tumor cell cycle arrest and cellular apoptosis, trigger necrosis and autophagy in cancer cells, inhibit metastasis, and suppress angiogenesis. * Reversal of abnormal tumor differentiation Ginsenoside Rh2 has a differentiation-inducing effect on tumor cancer cells, and can effectively enhance the melanin production ability in cancer cells, thereby causing cancer cells to transform into normal cells in morphology. Table 1 Anticancer effects and mechanisms of ginsenoside‑Rh2 in in vivo studies 3. The difference between ginsenoside Rg3 and ginsenoside Rh2 Figure 3 Molecular struction of ginsenoside Rg3 and ginsenoside Rh2 Both ginsenoside Rg3 and ginsenoside Rh2 have been attested to achieve antitumor effects by strengthening the immune function of the body. Despite their similar mechanisms of action, differences still exist between ginsenoside Rg3 and ginsenoside Rh2. In terms of the molecular structure, ginsenoside Rh2 has only one glycosyl group, whereas ginsenoside Rg3 has two. In addition, ginsenoside Rh2 has a higher bioavailability than ginsenoside Rg3. Ginsenoside Rg3 is easy to be excreted from the body after being taken, and won't make much difference to the body. With regard to the intestinal absorption, ginsenotone Rh2 is about 5 times of ginsenotone Rg3. 4. Conclusion The monosaccharide ginsenoside Rh2 can effectively improve human immunity, enhance disease resistance, and reduce the risk of cancer. Relative to ginsenoside Rg3, ginsenoside Rh2 shows higher cost-efficiency in the intestinal absorption, application scope and efficacy, providing an upgraded health support.
