NAD+ is a coenzyme that provides anti-aging and skin health benefits similar to niacinamide. a form of vitamin B-3. Adequate NAD+ levels are critical for proper DNA repair upon UV exposure. NAD+ deficiency increases skin sensitivity to photodamage, whereas NAM prevents UV-induced depletion of cellular energy by replenishing the NAD+ pool.
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is crucial to life. It works as an electron/hydrogen carrier that facilitates the transfer of energy between nutrients and the cell’s energy currency, ATP. In these oxidation-reduction reactions, the active part of the coenzyme (the one that gets reduced and oxidized again and again) is nicotinamide. NAD+ is non-organic.
Suggested Use & Storage
INCI Nomenclature:Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide Appearance: White Crystalline Powder Solubility: Water Soluble 50mg/ml Suggested Use Levels:0.5-1% Formulation notes: Vortex mixing is recommended to fully dissolve. Use of a sonicator may also be necessary. NAD+ degrades rapidly with heat (38C and up) and alkaline pH. We recommend storing your finished formulations in the refrigerator for maximum potency. Storage: Protect from light and store in a cool, dry location. Store with moisture absorbents. Shelf life: 24 months Fermentation: Enzymatic Reaction This product should be added to a formulation at the recommended usage rate.
