Niacin is a weak precursor of NAD+, the coenzyme that was shown in a recent Harvard/MIT/National Institutes of Health study to literally reverse muscle and mitochondrial aging. The only effective way to achieve the equivalent concentrations of NAD+ however is to actually ingest NAD+, and the only NAD+ supplement is not Niacin; it is MitoTrans. Since the Harvard study there has been a rush of misleading information by non scientists implying that a precursor such as Niacin can produce the same age reversal effects. The truth is that only a pharma grade NAD+ supplement can achieve this level of increase. Precursors are far too weak to produce an adequate increase in NAD+.
