The preparation methods 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.
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.
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) has several essential roles in metabolism. It acts as a coenzyme in redox reactions, as a donor of ADP-ribose moieties in ADP-ribosylation reactions, as a precursor of the second messenger molecule cyclic ADP-ribose, as well as acting as a substrate for bacterial DNA ligases and a group of enzymes called sirtuins that use NAD+ to remove acetyl groups from proteins. In addition to these metabolic functions, NAD+ emerges as an adenine nucleotide that can be released from cells spontaneously and by regulated mechanisms, and can therefore have important extracellular roles.
First, inspect the factory. After some screening, NAD companied 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.
The difference all comes down to the charge of these coenzymes. NAD+ is written with a superscript + sign because of the positive charge on one of its nitrogen atoms. It is the oxidized form of NAD. It’s considered “an oxidizing agent” because it accepts electrons from other molecules.
Although they are different chemically, these terms are mostly used interchangeably when discussing their health benefits. Another term you may come across is NADH, which stands for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) + hydrogen (H). This is also used interchangeably with NAD+ for the most part. Both are nicotinamide adenine dinucleotides that function as either hydride donors or hydride acceptors. The difference between these two is that that NADH becomes NAD+ after it donates an electron to another molecule.

Introduction Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) has become one of the leading cause of low vision and even blindness in the elderly, especially in those above 50. In 2020, approximately 1.8 million people aged over 50 are blinded by AMD and approximately 6.2 million people have moderate and severe visual impairment worldwide. By 2040, it is estimated that there will be about 288 million individuals with AMD worldwide. Strikingly, replenishing NAD+ may be a promising therapeutic option against early AMD. About AMD AMD is an aging phenotypes in the eyes, which mainly affects the central fixation point of eyes (macula). There are two types of AMD: dry AMD (non-exudative or atrophic) and wet AMD (neovascular or exudative). Almost all of the AMD cases starts with dry AMD. In AMD, loss of central vision can be severe and permanent. Remarkably, dietary supplements containing antioxidant vitamins, minerals (zinc and copper), lutein and zeaxanthin, to some extent, can alleviate the progress of early AMD. Nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN), a derivative of vitamin B3 (niacin), has been unveiled to a promising senotherapeutic agent for AMD. Cholesterol overload as one of the triggers for AMD An imbalance between cholesterol influx (entry into cells) and efflux (exit from cells) can lead to intracellular cholesterol overload, which is the initiating event in diverse triggers of senescence including AMD. This surplus can initiate cytopathic and pathological processes that are detrimental to cell health. One specific consequence of a cholesterol efflux defect is the senescence of macrophages, which are immune cells that help to clean up cellular debris. Additionally, such a defect can lead to the accumulation of lipofuscin within the eyes. LXR/CD38/NAD+ axis underlying the development of AMD LXR/CD38 activation drives cholesterol-induced macrophage senescence and neurodegeneration via NAD+ depletion. Specifically, cholesterol accumulation in bone-marrow-derived macrophages deficient in cholesterol efflux upregulates the transcription of CD38 through LXR activation, which thereby promotes the degradation of NAD+ and induces the cellular senescence, eventually promoting AMD phenotype. Suppressive impacts of NAD+ augmentation upon macrophage senescence states in AMD model mice Cholesterol-mediated NAD+ depletion induces macrophage senescence and dysfunction, promoting subretinal lipid deposition and neurodegeneration, two key features of AMD. Replenishing NMN to augment NAD+ level reverses macrophage senescence and dysfunction, preventing the development of AMD phenotype, as indicated by the facilitated clearance of subretinal drusenoid deposits (SDDs) and the reduced accumulation of lipofuscin+ macrophages. Conclusion NAD+ deficit induced by excess intracellular cholesterol is the converging mechanism of macrophage senescence and a causal process underlying AMD. Supplementing NMN to boost NAD+ level serves as a promising senotherapeutic agent for age-related neurodegeneration.
