I take Tru Niagen NAD+ and set running PRs every year. Been doing it for four years. I am now within 20 seconds of the world record for the mile for my age. It just stops you from aging, and sets repair systems to maximum speed.

My MD scoffs at dietary supplements. All the advocates are doing commercials. Balance of Nature has colorful ads on Fox News. One for veggies and one for fruit. So tell me, how long before one notices effects of Tru Niacin? I’ll give it a small try(investment). Scam(s)?

It takes about a week. It seems to be more noticeable in people that are already engaged in a vigorous exercise routine because you suddenly don’t require all the time to recover that you used to. Some people report heart palpitations though. I have also heard of GI distress side effects but I don’t have any of those.

There are quack additives splashed all over the fool's paradise of cable chanels.

Sleep aids, pain aids, fat busterd diet pills, all nonsense.

There have also been serious postings on FR about sleeping aids, eating aids, joint aids yada yada. There are also occasional postings of the "medicinals", Tylenall, Advill p.m. and the poisions they can become when mixed with off-the counter and quack products.

Ask a GOOD trusted doctor about alzheimers and over the counter/airwaves crap.

I did a NAD+ infusion. I thought it may have been a placebo affect but my wife noticed an improvement in movement and not as sleepy... weird.

It was a gift from one of my kids and I’m thinking about doing that again.

Also following. I just started a course of semiglutide for weight loss. Only want to drop about 15 pounds which is right in the wheelhouse for semiglutide therapy.

I started eating only between 10am and 6 pm.
I thought it would be a hardship to not eat breakfast early
but didn’t bother me
I either would eat a typical breakfast or lunch. Nothing drastic, regular food.
A snack mid afternoon and then dinner by 7

Never hungry
So I started shorting the time to eat. between 11am
and 6:30
Now I only eat between 12 pm and 5:30 pm Sometimes I don’t eat a snack.
My portions have gotten smaller not on purpose but because I feel full and I pay more attention to balance and healthy foody
BUT if I want a cheeseburger and fries or pizza I eat it
I did lose weight lowered BP and feel great
but my biggest surprise is how easy it is to adapt. No special foods etc, just adjusting time.
I run early every morning and thought I would feel hungry but don’t.
It is ridiculously easy and does so much good

Niagen owns the patent, and hasn’t licensed manufacture, so any vendor buys it from them. Markups vary, so cheapest brand varies. No generics.

Niacinamide and 5-HTP are precursors and much cheaper, but no research to demonstrate effectiveness.

Eat less? That's UNAMERICAN! Take the pill.

I take Tru Niagen NAD+

My first 2 bottles of Tru-Niagen were $30. Next time I tried to buy, the price was near $70, so I put that on hold.

Thank you, and bears repeating a million, billion, trillion times. I start yelling at the radio or the TV when those damn fool things come on.

I get them direct for a little under $30/month. A bit pricey but it works so well for me that I would probably pay a lot more. Each bottle lasts 90 days now though so maybe you are seeing the same price.
