NADH powder efficacy in health
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.
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.
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.

Frequently Asked Question
Do you have any question?
NADH is synthesized by the body and thus is not an essential nutrient. It does require the essential nutrient nicotinamide for its synthesis, and its role in energy production is certainly an essential one. In addition to its role in the mitochondrial electron transport chain, NADH is produced in the cytosol. The mitochondrial membrane is impermeable to NADH, and this permeability barrier effectively separates the cytoplasmic from the mitochondrial NADH pools. However, cytoplasmic NADH can be used for biologic energy production. This occurs when the malate-aspartate shuttle introduces reducing equivalents from NADH in the cytosol to the electron transport chain of the mitochondria. This shuttle mainly occurs in the liver and heart.
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.

Targeting NAD+ Salvage Pathway as a Potential Approach to Combat Obesity
Introduction Mar 4th is determined as the World Obesity Day. World Obesity Federation, UNICEF and WHO have hosted a global youth-led webinar to talk about obesity & youth. The obesity crisis has gradually attracted much attention. The latest report by the Lancet suggests that one billion people are bothered by obesity (2022), with 650 million adults, 340 million adolescents and 39 million children. Recently, etiological studies and interventions for obesity have been progressively focused on the central nervous system, with an attempt to curb the onset of obesity at its source. Notably, targeting NAD+ salvage pathway in hypothalamic astrocytes may be a potential approach to combat obesity. The association of hypothalamic astrocytes and obesity The hypothalamus functions as the appetite regulation center, which receives and integrates the neuroendocrine factors produced by the central nervous system and peripheral tissues to promote or suppress appetite, so as to affect body weight. Noteworthily, aypothalamic astrocytes can apparently decrease glucose clearance and increase plasma insulin levels, playing an essential role in modulating energy metabolism, which are expected to be a new target for obesity treatment. Alleviation of high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obesity by repressing astrocyte NAD+ salvage pathway Under conditions of excessive fat intake, the NAD+ salvage pathway is specifically activated in hypothalamic astrocytes, which restrains the energy expenditure (EE) and fat oxidation in adipose tissues by downregulating sympathetic nerve innervation, eventually resulting in the accumulation of adipose tissue fat and the development of obesity. CD38 as a downstream mediator of astrocyte inflammation induced by the NAD+ salvage pathway. CD38 functions downstream of the NAD+ salvage pathway in hypothalamic astrocytes burdened with excess fat. CD38 knockdown in arcuate nucleus astrocytes diminishes the weight gain, reduces fat mass, increases EE, and lowers RER during HFD consumption. Cd38 depletion in hypothalamic astrocytes may improve hypothalamic inflammation by increasing NAD+ level. Hypothalamic inflammation can not only lead to energy imbalances, but also exacerbate central insulin resistance and leptin resistance, which can lead to the accumulation of fat in peripheral tissues. The role of nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT)–NAD+–CD38 axis in obesity In mammals, the salvage pathway represents the primary means of maintaining cellular NAD+ level. A crucial step in the NAD+ salvage pathway is catalyzed by NAMPT. In response to fat overload, the activation of the astrocytic NAMPT-NAD+-CD38 axis induces pro-inflammatory responses in the hypothalamus, eliciting aberrantly activated basal Ca2+ signals and compromised Ca2+ responses to metabolic hormones such as insulin, leptin, and glucagon-like peptide 1, ultimately resulting in dysfunctional hypothalamic astrocytes and contribute to the development of obesity. Conclusion Mechanically, inhibition of hypothalamic astrocytic NAD+ salvage pathway, along with its downstream CD38, mitigates hypothalamic inflammation and attenuates the development of HFD-induced obesity in male mice.

Potential Treatment for Glaucoma: NAD+ Precursor NR
Introduction Glaucoma is regarded as the second dominant cause of blindness across the world. With the amounting number and proportion of elderly people, it is estimated that 111.8 million people will have glaucoma by 2040. Nicotinamide riboside (NR) has been attested to protect retinal ganglion cells from the stress of elevated intraocular pressure and optic nerve crush. Glaucoma patients can protect their optic nerves by oral administration of NR at a dose of 300 mg (approximately 1.18 mM). The abovementioned protective effects of NR may be achieved by its antioxidant and antifibrotic properties. About glaucoma Glaucoma is a typical ocular disease characterized by atrophy and depression of the optic nerve head, visual field defects, and diminution of vision. The pathologically increased intraocular pressure and insufficient blood supply to the optic nerve are deemed as the primary risk factors for the development of the disease. In addition to those with family history of glaucoma, people with severe myopia/hyperopia, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, hyperglycemia and long-term use of corticosteroid medications, especially eye drops, are at high risk for glaucoma. Extraordinary role of NR in protecting HTMs against oxidative stress In glaucoma, oxidative stress can trigger TM degeneration, thereby resulting in intraocular hypertension. Herein, an oxidative damage model is established in vitro by incubation of human trabecular meshwork (HTM) cells with 200 μM H2O2 for 24 h. As expected, NR hampers H2O2-induced apoptosis in HTM cells, as evidenced by the upregulation of the anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 and downregulation of apoptotic protein Bax. Conversely, NR boosts the viability of oxidative-damaged HTM cells. In addition, NR can shield HTM cells from oxidative stress by lowering ROS and superoxide anion levels. Apart from this, NR overtly improves the H2O2-induced decrease in the mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) in HTM cells, hinting its antioxidant effect possibly achieved by maintaining mitochondrial homeostasis. Underlying mechanism regarding the antioxidant role of NR in HTM cells MAPK and JAK2/Stat3 pathways are related to NR-alleviated HTM cell apoptosis during oxidative stress. In the MAPK pathway, H2O2 leads to the downregulation of p-P38/P38 ratio and upregulation of p-ERK1/2 protein expression, which are offset by intervention with NR. In the JAK2/Stat3 pathway, H2O2 induces downregulation of p-JAK2 protein expression, while NR runs oppositely. Potential antifibrotic role of NR in HTM cells Considering that transforming growth factor-beta 2 (TGF-β2), a profibrotic cytokine, is also a major contributor to glaucomatous HTM dysfunction, an HTM cell model of fibrosis is constructed by induction of TGF-β2 at 10 ng/mL for 48 h. Remarkably, NR prevents TGF-β2-induced fibrosis by reducing extracellular matrix (ECM) deposition in HTM cells. Concretely, the mRNA and protein levels of fibronectin (FN) are elevated in the TGF-β2-treated HTM cells, which however are counteracted by NR. Conclusion NR can boost the viability, proliferation and MMP oxidative damage in H2O2-induced HTM cells, and hamper TGF-β2-induced fibrosis, which is linked to the MAPK and JAK2/Stat3 pathways. NR may be a potential therapeutic agent for glaucoma by inhibiting oxidative damage and fibrosis in HTM cells. Reference Zeng Y, Lin Y, Yang J, et al.
