Are there are any known side effects associated with taking B3 vitamin supplement Nicotinamide Riboside “NR” (FAQs) (Reviews), in this case NR brand niagen? This is one of the most common questions we hear from potential consumers relating to NR. In the past, we’ve heard there aren’t any adverse effects. And in an interview last week, we heard this:

Chromadex CEO Rob Fried at a Renmark investor event (@ 28:13 min mark of the presentation linked to below):

“We’ve done extensive toxicology studies and safety studies.

And we’ve shown that even at very high dosage levels that it (NR) is safe.

We’ve done these studies on animals as well as on humans.

We now have 5 years of consumer sales — people regularly taking tru niagen.

And we don’t hear any consistent patterns of side effects.

But, from time to time, we do hear from people who say: “I took tru niagen and this happened or that happened”.

But none with statistical significance or consistency”
