NAD powder efficacy in health
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.
NAD powder manufacturing method
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.

Frequently Asked Question
Do you have any question?
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.

NR as a Promising Therapeutic Candidate for Alpers' Disease
Introduction Alpers' disease is both a neurodegenerative disorder and a metabolic disorder, which is tightly linked to mitochondrial dysfunction and mutations in the catalytic subunit of polymerase gamma (POLG) gene. Noteworthily, supplementation of NAD precursor, nicotinamide riboside (NR), is evidenced to explicitly ameliorate mitochondrial defects in cortical organoids of patients with Alpers' disease. About Alpers’ disease Alpers’ disease is an autosomal recessive disorder, which is often accompanied with cortical neuronal loss as well as depletion of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and complex I (CI). The disease occurs in about 1 in 100,000 newborns. Most individuals with Alpers’ disease show no symptoms at birth. Diagnosis is generally established by determining the POLG gene. Once onset (usually between first and third years of life), patients may present the symptoms such as progressive encephalopathy, epilepsy, myoclonus, and myasthenia gravis. Currently, there is no effective method to cure this disease. Establishment of Alpers' disease model in vitro Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are generated from Alpers' patient carrying the compound heterozygous mutations of A467T (c.1399G>A) and P589L (c.1766C>T), followed by differentiation into cortical organoids and neural stem cells (NSCs). Alpers's iPSCs exhibit mild mitochondrial alterations, including an elevated L-lactate level and a depletion of CI. Alpers' NSCs manifest profound mtDNA depletion and mitochondrial dysfunction. Alpers' cortical organoids demonstrate cortical neuronal loss and astrocyte accumulation. The role of NR in Alpers' cortical organoids Long-term treatment with NR partially ameliorates the neurodegenerative alterations observed in Alpers' cortical organoids. Specifically, supplementation of NR effectively counteracts neuronal loss, glial enrichment, and mitochondrial damage observed in cortical organoids of patients with Alpers' disease. Reversal of the dysregulated pathways in Alpers' patient organoids post NR treatment NR treatment offsets the downregulation of mitochondrial and synaptogenesis-related pathways, as well as upregulation of pathways associated with astrocyte/glial cells and neuroinflammation are obviously activated in Alpers' cortical organoids. Conclusion Replenishment of NR to increase NAD level can rescue mitochondrial defects and neuronal loss in iPSC-derived cortical organoid of Alpers’ disease, with relatively high safety and bioavailability, showing great promise as a therapeutic candidate for this intractable disorder.

Investigating the Great Possibility of Rare Ginsenosides as Drugs and Nutraceuticals
1. Introduction Rare ginsenosides, a group of dammarane triterpenoids that exist in low natural abundance, fuels a high concern from scholars recently, showing great potential as shining components in drugs and nutraceuticals. 2. The difference between primary ginsenosides and rare ginsenosides Ginsenosides are chiefly extracted from the plants of Araliaceae such as Panax ginseng, Panax notoginseng, and Panax quinquefolius. In light of their natural abundance, ginsenosides are usually divided into macro (primary) saponins (ginsenosides Rb1, Rg1, Re, Rd, etc.) and rare (secondary) ginsenosides (Rg5, Rk1, Rg3, etc). Relative to primary ginsenosides, rare ginsenosides are easy to be absorbed by human body, with much higher biological activity, membrane permeability and bioavailability. 3. The stereochemistry properties of rare ginsenosides The stereochemistry-driven difference in bioactivities is mostly focused on the 20(S/R)-Rg3 and 20(S/R)-Rh2 epimers. The stereochemistry properties confer rare ginsenosides with diverse bioactivities. Typically, the crucial factors that contribute to the efficacy of rare ginsenosises encompass the number of sugar molecules, sugar linkage and double bonds within C-17 side chain. For instance, the anti-tumor effect increased as the number of sugar moieties in a ginsenoside decreased. 4. Pharmacological activities of rare ginsenosides Rare ginsenosides serve as natural ligands for some specific receptors such as bile acid (FXR/TGR5), steroid hormone, estrogen, glucocorticoid, androgen, platelet adenosine diphosphate, which are determined to exert immunoregulatory and adaptogen-like effect, anti-aging effect, anti-tumor effect, as well as their effects on cardiovascular and cerebrovascular system, central nervous system, obesity and diabetes. 5. The impact of rare ginsenosides upon gut microbiota In addition to above-mentioned pharmacological activities, rare ginsenosides are also contributive to maintaining the homeostasis of gut microbiota. Under normal physiological condition, there is a dynamic balance in gut microbiota, which would be disrupted in the onset and development of certain disease. Rare ginenosides can restore the decreased abundance of certain affected microbiota, regulating the intestinal microecology to influence the physiological function of the host. 6. Conclusion By leverage of the stereochemistry properties, rare ginsenosides exhibit superior bioactivity, opening up new opportunities for the discovery and development of drugs and nutraceuticals.

The Miraculous Potency of NR-CL on Mitigating Ischemia-induced Hippocampal Damage and Maintaining Cognitive Function
1 Introduction Nicotinamide riboside (NR), a derivative of vitamin B3, is a new type of bioactive substance, which can be generated by binding a carbohydrate molecular ribose with nicotinamide (also known as niacin or vitamin B3). Nicotinamide riboside chloride (NRC/NR-CL) is a chloride salt form of NR. In daily life, NR-CL can be taken from NR supplements and food such as meat, fish and cereals. A recent study has revealed that NR-CL protects the hippocampus and ultimately promotes the recovery of cognitive function after brain ischemia. 2. The ameliorating impact of NRC upon ischemia-induced cognitive deficits Ischemia-induced cognitive deficits are ameliorated post NRC treatment. Specifically, NRC treatment improves the learning ability of mice, as evidenced by the shorter latency and the decreased path length. The hippocampal protection provided by NRC contributes to the recovery of spatial learning and memory after the ischemic insult. Figure 1 Acute NRC treatment potentiates cognitive recovery after ischemia 3. Reduction of the infarct volume in the hippocampus post acute NRC treatment After ischemia, there are deformed cell bodies, condensed nuclear chromatin, increased intracellular cell gaps, loosened cell arrangements and blurred visible staining in the damaged pyramidal neurons. NRC treatment partially offsets these morphological changes. Figure 2 Acute NRC treatment reduces the hippocampal infarct volume. 4. Recovery of neuronal damage in the hippocampus post acute NRC treatment After ischemia, brain damage emerges due to energy crisis-induced mitochondrial dysfunction, followed by the cell loss and neuronal apoptosis. NRC treatment leads to an increase in the number of positive cells, signifying the recovery of local neuronal loss. Figure 3 Acute NRC treatment attenuates neuronal loss in the hippocampus. 5. Upregulation of NAD and ATP levels in the hippocampus post acute NRC treatment By repleshing the production of NAD, acute treatment with NRC, to some extent, can salvage the energy supply in the hippocampus, which conspicuously enhances the recovery of ATP level. 6. Conclusion Collectively, acute NRC treatment increases the energy supply and reduces the neuronal loss to protect the hippocampus, thereby facilitating the recovery of cognitive function. NR-CL (ie. NRC) is a very promising component of health care products and has a wide range of application prospects. Before use, one should follow the guidance of professionals. At the same time, attention should be paid to reasonable intake and safe use to avoid the adverse effects of excessive use.
