Description
Nicotinamide Riboside Chloride is the chloride salt form of nicotinamide riboside(NR).NR is a new form pyridine-nucleoside of vitamin B3 that functions as a precursor to nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide(NAD) or NAD+ . Nicotinamide riboside chloride is a crystal form of Nicotinamide riboside (NR) chloride. Nicotinamide riboside chloride increases NAD[+] levels and activates SIRT1 and SIRT3, culminating in enhanced oxidative metabolism and protection against high fat diet-induced metabolic abnormalities. Nicotinamide riboside chloride is used in dietary supplements.

Uses
Nicotinamide Riboside Chloride is a crystal form of Nicotinamide riboside (NR) chloride termed NIAGEN, generally recognized as safe (GRAS) for use in foods and in dietary supplements. Nicotinamide Riboside Chloride is a source of vitamin B3 (niacin) and enhances oxidative metabolism, protection against high fat diet-induced metabolic abnormalities. Nicotinamide riboside is a newly discovered NAD (NAD+) precursor vitamin. Nicotinamide riboside is involved in nicotinate and nicotinamide metabolism. Nicotinamide riboside was originally identified as a nutrient in milk and later discovered to be a NAD(+) precursor.Nicotinamide riboside (NR) is a naturally occurring vitamin B-3 present in the human diet that acts as an NAD+ precursor and is suggested to improve mitochondrial function and insulin sensitivity. NR acts via activation of the NAD+-dependent sirtuin enzyme family, thereby regulating oxidative metabolism. In vitro experiments of NR supplementation have shown its successful NAD+-restoring capability and subsequent increased oxidative gene expression in skeletal muscle cells. Results from in vivo mouse models have shown improvements in insulin sensitivity and oxidative energy metabolism, including enhanced metabolic flexibility, increased aerobic exercise capacity, and indications of improved mitochondrial biogenesis.

Biological Functions
Nicotinamide riboside (NR) is a newly discovered form of vitamin B3 that is found naturally in trace amounts in milk. No one really thought much about NR until scientists discovered that our bodies can convert NR into something called nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). And NAD+—at least for healthy-aging researchers—is kind of a big deal.NAD+ is a coenzyme found in all living cells, and it plays a vital role in energy metabolism and maintaining proper cell functioning. Levels of NAD+ also happen to decline significantly as we get older, and these declining levels apparently drive the aging process.
