NR + Pterostilbene stack (basis-type)

NAD+ · Anti-aging · Sirtuin activation
Tier 3 — Trending

What it is

Combines nicotinamide riboside (NAD+ precursor) with pterostilbene (sirtuin activator) — the combination used in the Elysium Basis product. The NRPT study found this combination significantly raised NAD+ blood levels and improved liver function markers in older adults. However, clinical outcomes (actual health improvements) remain unproven. Very expensive for unproven longevity benefits.

Take in the morning with food. Very expensive. NAD+ blood levels do increase but whether this translates to actual health span improvements is unknown. More affordable options include plain niacin.
