Q: Is nicotinamide riboside the same as niacin? Is vitamin B3 the same as nicotinamide riboside?
A: Nicotinamide Riboside (NR) is a form of Vitamin B3. Think of Vitamin B3 as a family with several members, including Niacin (Nicotinic Acid), Nicotinamide (NAM), and Nicotinamide Riboside (NR). They are not the same, but NR is a modern, efficient type of Vitamin B3 that the body converts into NAD+.
Q: What is nicotinamide riboside supplement good for?
A: NR is primarily valued for its role as a potent precursor to NAD+, a crucial coenzyme in every cell. By boosting NAD+ levels, NR supplements aim to:
Support cellular energy production
Promote healthy aging
Maintain neurological health
Support DNA repair and cellular resilience
Q: How to take NR powder?
A: Mix the recommended serving (typically 150-300mg) directly into a cool, non-acidic beverage like water or a smoothie. Avoid hot liquids to preserve stability. For optimal absorption, take it in the morning on an empty stomach or with a light meal.
Q: Is it better to take NR or NAD+? What is the difference between NR and NAD+?
A: It is better to take NR (Nicotinamide Riboside).
NAD+ is the active molecule your cells use, but it is too large to enter cells effectively when taken orally.
NR is a smaller, more stable precursor that is efficiently absorbed and converted into NAD+ inside your cells. NR is considered a superior delivery system for raising NAD+ levels.
Q: Can I take NAD+ and NR together?
A: It is not necessary. Since NR is efficiently converted into NAD+, taking both does not provide a significant added benefit and is not a cost-effective strategy. The most efficient approach is to supplement with a high-quality NR precursor.
Q: Is NAD+ the same as nicotinamide?
A: No. Nicotinamide (NAM) is another form of Vitamin B3 and a separate byproduct of NAD+ breakdown. While it can be recycled back into NAD+, high levels of nicotinamide can inhibit sirtuins (longevity proteins). NR is a more favored precursor because it avoids this potential issue.
Always check the supplement label for the amount of elemental selenium and consult your healthcare provider before use, as needs can vary.
