Identity

What NAD+ is

NAD+ is not a peptide or a drug, it is a coenzyme, a helper molecule every living cell needs to run its energy-producing reactions. Cells build it from a B vitamin, and biologists have studied it for over a century because so much of metabolism runs through it. What is newer is interest in whether adding it back in from outside, by IV or otherwise, changes anything measurable.

NAD+ is a pyridine dinucleotide coenzyme, molecular formula C21H27N7O14P2, molecular weight 663.43 g/mol. SBz Industries sells it for laboratory research.

Research

What the research has looked at

In plain terms, with a link to every study. The most useful thing to notice is what each study was done in.

NAD+ itself, given directly rather than through a building-block molecule, has barely been tested in people, really just one small pilot study tracking where an infusion ends up in blood and urine. The much larger research base is on NAD+ biology in cells and animals, and on separate precursor molecules like nicotinamide riboside, which the body converts into NAD+ and which have their own human trials.

review2021

Pulled together cell and animal studies on how NAD+ levels change with age and what cell processes depend on it, including DNA repair and energy metabolism. The authors say plainly that restoring NAD+ levels in aging people remains mostly untested territory, not an established practice.

NAD(+) metabolism and its roles in cellular processes during ageing.
Covarrubias and colleagues, Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology

people2020

Gave 13 adults six weeks of nicotinamide riboside, a related building-block molecule that raises NAD+ levels rather than NAD+ itself, followed by a placebo period, then took muscle biopsies and measured body composition and insulin response. Muscle NAD+ markers rose, but the researchers found no measured change in insulin sensitivity and only small shifts in body composition.

Nicotinamide riboside supplementation alters body composition and skeletal muscle acetylcarnitine concentrations in healthy obese humans.

Handling

Mixing and storage

Lyophilized: -20C, protected from light. Reconstituted: 2-8C.

Full handling guide
  1. 01

    Let it warm up

    Give the vial twenty minutes on the bench before opening it, so water does not condense onto the powder.

  2. 02

    Add bacteriostatic water

    Slowly, down the inside wall of the vial, never straight onto the powder.

  3. 03

    Let it dissolve

    Leave it alone until it clears. Do not shake it. Shaking damages the peptide.

  4. 04

    Refrigerate and use

    Once mixed, it breaks down much faster than the dry powder. Keep it cold and dark.

Questions

Common questions about NAD+

What is NAD+?

NAD+ is not a peptide or a drug, it is a coenzyme, a helper molecule every living cell needs to run its energy-producing reactions. Cells build it from a B vitamin, and biologists have studied it for over a century because so much of metabolism runs through it. What is newer is interest in whether adding it back in from outside, by IV or otherwise, changes anything measurable. SBz Industries sells it for laboratory research only.

Has anyone tested giving NAD+ directly to people?

One small pilot study gave people a six-hour IV infusion of NAD+ and tracked it in blood and urine. It measured where the NAD+ went, not what it changed in the body.

Is NAD+ the same thing as NMN or NR?

No. NMN and NR are separate molecules the body converts into NAD+; most of the human supplement research is actually on those precursors, not on NAD+ itself.

What is the molecular formula and weight of NAD+?

The molecular formula is C21H27N7O14P2. The molecular weight is 663.43 g/mol. Both are stated on the certificate of analysis on the product page.

How is NAD+ reconstituted?

NAD+ ships as a freeze-dried powder. Mix it with bacteriostatic water, added slowly down the inside wall of the vial, and let it dissolve without shaking. The researcher decides the working concentration, not us, and we publish no protocols.

How should NAD+ be stored?

Lyophilized: -20C, protected from light. Reconstituted: 2-8C. Vials ship in plain outer packaging with no product name on the outside.

Is NAD+ tested, and can I see the results?

Yes. An independent lab tests every compound: it confirms the compound is what the label says and measures purity by HPLC. The latest certificate is on the product page, and you can read it before you order.

Who is permitted to purchase NAD+?

Researchers and institutions, 21 or over. By ordering you confirm the material is for laboratory research and will not be used in humans or animals.
