What it is
Niacinamide is a form of Vitamin B3 that acts as a precursor to NAD+, a vital coenzyme involved in cellular energy production and repair. It is formulated as a flush-free capsule to support healthy aging and cellular longevity.

How it works
Niacinamide is converted into NAD+ within the body, which is essential for over 400 enzymatic reactions, including those involved in DNA repair, energy metabolism, and cellular signaling. Increased NAD+ levels can help counteract age-related decline in cellular function.
Who should take it
Adults looking to address premature ageing, low energy, cellular stress. Particularly relevant for people who prefer a targeted single ingredient and who have ruled out an underlying condition that needs medical care first.
Avoid / careful
Pregnant or nursing women without clinician oversight. People on prescription medication affecting the same pathway should consult a doctor before combining. Side effects are uncommon at recommended doses but mild GI upset can occur when starting.

FAQs
Frequently asked
What is NAD+?
NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) is a coenzyme found in all living cells, crucial for metabolism, DNA repair, and cellular signaling. Its levels naturally decline with age.
Why is niacinamide preferred over niacin?
Niacinamide is preferred because it does not cause the 'niacin flush' (redness and itching) associated with nicotinic acid, making it more comfortable for daily use.
How long does it take to see results?
For longevity markers and cellular benefits, consistent daily intake for 8-12 weeks is typically recommended to observe measurable changes.
