NAD+ 500mg

Description

NAD+ 500mg is 500mg of NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) in a sealed glass vial, tested to 99.3% purity. NAD+ is a coenzyme. It’s sold for laboratory research only.

What is NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide)?

NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a coenzyme found in every living cell. It carries electrons in the reactions that turn food into ATP, and it’s used up by enzymes such as the sirtuins, PARPs and CD38.

Levels fall with age in several tissues in rodents and people, which is why NAD+ and its precursors, such as NMN and nicotinamide riboside, have become a major topic in aging research.

The mechanism behind NAD+

NAD+ shuttles electrons in glycolysis, the Krebs cycle and the mitochondrial chain, so it’s needed to turn food into ATP. It’s also used up by sirtuins, which regulate gene expression, and by PARPs, which repair DNA.

Because those enzymes consume it, NAD+ levels depend on constant recycling. Falling levels with age are linked to lower sirtuin activity, which is the basis for most NAD+ aging research.

What the literature says about NAD+

Work from Shin-ichiro Imai’s lab at Washington University linked falling NAD+ to age-related decline in mice. In a small human trial published in Science in 2021, Yoshino and colleagues reported that the precursor NMN improved muscle insulin sensitivity in prediabetic women.

Most studies raise NAD+ with precursors such as NMN or nicotinamide riboside. Direct NAD+ work is a separate research question.

NAD+ and its alternatives

Quick context: NAD+ is the coenzyme cells need for energy reactions and sirtuin activity. Other compounds in the same area:

• Epitalon is the tetrapeptide Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly studied for telomerase and the pineal gland
• SS-31 is a mitochondria-targeted tetrapeptide that binds cardiolipin
• MOTS-c is a short peptide coded in mitochondrial DNA and linked to AMPK
• GHK-Cu is a copper-binding tripeptide linked to collagen and wound remodeling

Longevity research splits into separate processes, and each compound here targets one: cell energy, mitochondria or tissue renewal. Compare them in our anti-aging peptides.

How to dissolve NAD+ 500mg

Working out the strength of your solution is one division: 500mg over the volume you add. Common volumes give these results:

• 5mL of diluent gives 100mg per mL
• 10mL of diluent gives 50mg per mL

You’ll need your own diluent, usually bacteriostatic water. Aim the needle at the side of the vial, add the liquid slowly and roll the vial gently until the powder dissolves. Shaking makes foam and can damage the peptide.

Storing NAD+ 500mg

Before opening, NAD+ 500mg goes in the fridge at 2 to 8°C. The mixed solution stays refrigerated too and should be finished inside about 30 days. Don’t freeze it.

Mix one vial at a time. Powder keeps for months, solution for weeks.

How Sports Technology Labs tests NAD+ 500mg

Sports Technology Labs doesn’t test its own products. MZ Biolabs in Tucson, Arizona, does, using HPLC for purity and mass spectrometry for identity. For this listing the posted result is 99.3%.

You’ll find the COA in the photo gallery above. Open it and check the date, the method and the purity figure yourself.

Both numbers matter. Purity by HPLC means little if nobody checked the identity, and that’s the job mass spectrometry does.

If anything arrives wrong, the 60-day money-back guarantee covers it.
