Here’s what City of Hope’s Dr. Charles Brenner (discoverer of Nicotinamide Riboside “NR” (FAQs) (Reviews) as an NAD precursor vitamin) said on a recent podcast (video embedded below):
At the 48:10 minute mark of the video podcast below
“…inflammation is a huge area for us because in a small clinical study of healthy older men that was done in Birmingham — the first author was Elhassan and the last author was Gareth Lavery — we saw that the the older guys — they were all all men in the study — had elevated markers of inflammation IL6, IL10 and so forth.
And just three weeks of NR (Nicotinamide Riboside) lowered these markers.
And so you start getting chronic inflammation under control and you potentially improve a lot of things in human health — potentially addressing things like “long COVID”, and the ability to enjoy a healthy lifestyle.”

I’m a firm believer in NR’s anti-inflammatory effects. Knee arthritis caused me to get cortisone shots in my knees every hundred days or so. It was like clockwork how long I went between shots. This went on for several years. Then I started taking Tru Niagen. I have not experienced knee pain since. I literally mean I have had zero pain in my knees for almost four years and counting. There were no other new prescriptions or supplements that I took during that period, so I believe the improvement is due solely to Tru Niagen.
