The product put out by Elysium is just a combination of NAD+ and Pterostilbene, both of which are available separately from several sources. I get my NAD+ through the Life Extension Foundation during their yearly vitamin sale (November through January) at a sharp discount, and I get the Pterostilbene from Amazon. Along with all the other vitamins and supplements I take, my health is great. I just turned 70 two weeks ago, and most people assume I’m in my 50’s.

I’ve been taking elysium for a couple years. I’m 65 and people generally think I’m about 50. (But I’ve always looked younger than my age. I was carded in my younger years until I was nearly 30.)
Elysium is expensive. But if you buy a years supply— you can get it at $40 for a months supply. What’s your combined expense per month for Pterostilbene from Amazon and NAD+ through the Life Extension Foundation during their yearly vitamin sale (November through January) .... I’m assuming that by Nad+ what you mean is nicotinamide riboside—as that’s what makes the NAD.
This past November I purchased 12 bottles (each with 30 capsules at 250 mg) of NAD+ (containing NIAGEN® Nicotinamide Riboside) from Life Extension at the sale price of $25.20 each (total of $302.40 for a year’s supply). The Pterostilbene via Amazon was $22.99 for 100 capsules (each 100 mg) for a total annual cost of around $84. The combined total is around $386.
Elysium says their bottle contains 30 servings, each of which consists of 2 capsules, and each serving has 250 mg of NAD+ along with 50 mg of Pterostilbene.
Overall it’s not a big difference in annual cost. I tend to go with Life Extension because I’ve bought many other vitamin supplements from them for many, many years, and I trust them.
