NAD+: molecular data, studies & sources
A small human pilot study measured plasma and urine metabolites during an intravenous NAD infusion. It examined metabolite handling, not proof of an anti-aging benefit. Trials of NMN, nicotinamide riboside or other precursors are not interchangeable with studies of NAD itself.
