Thorne - NiaCel 400 60 Capsules

Niacel (Nicotinamide Riboside) supports mitochondrial biogenesis and NAD+ levels, which decline as we age.* It also provides neurological, metabolic, and muscle endurance support.* 

 

The body makes its energy from ATP that is produced by cell mitochondria through reactions in the citric acid (or Krebs) cycle and the electron transport chain. A key component in both processes is nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). That's where nicotinamide riboside (NR) comes in. Research has demonstrated that NR, the active ingredient in NiaCel, is a direct precursor to NAD+.*

Adequate amounts of NAD+ supports mitochondrial energetics in the heart and elsewhere and supports production of energy-creating ATP, which provides support for endurance athletes and fatigued individuals.* In addition, NR supports NAD+ as a critical substrate for the sirtuin enzymes, which play key roles in healthy aging, cognitive function, weight management, and lipid metabolism in the liver.*
