Rather than deciding between NAD+ boosting supplements NMN (FAQs and Anecdotes) and NR (FAQs) (Anecdotes), some consumers take NAD+. NAD+ expert Dr. Charles Brenner explains why that doesn’t make sense to him (video and transcript below):

In late 2019, NAD+ expert Dr. Charles Brenner received a research grant from the Gates Foundation to study the various NAD+ precursors including NMN (FAQs and Anecdotes) and NR (FAQs) (Anecdotes). This past week, Dr. Brenner finally provided a peek at what he found (videos and transcripts below):
Earlier today, a caller asked Dr. Drew for his thoughts on NAD+ boosting vitamin supplement Nicotinamide Riboside “NR” (FAQs) (Anecdotes) (Podcasts). Here’s what he said in response about NR and NMN (FAQs and Anecdotes) (video and transcript below):
Here’s what we’ve learned after 2 years of writing this site. Choosing an NAD+ boosting vitamin supplement is difficult. Do you take NMN (FAQs and Anecdotes) or NR (FAQs) (Anecdotes)? And once you decide between the two, which of the many sellers do you purchase from? We know that NMN is by far the more popular. But many red flags suggest caution. Scientists warn about it and many NMN sellers don’t sell what they say they do. This suggests that there’s no standard NMN product. Everyone is selling something different. It’s quite astonishing then that so many consumers choose to purchase and ingest NMN in large numbers. This commercial miracle is likely in large part due to the support of Harvard’s Dr. David Sinclair (though, to add to the confusion, he doesn’t tell you where he gets his NMN from and doesn’t endorse any specific NMN brand). So where does that leave potential consumers looking for guidance on which supplement to buy and where to buy it from?
