They have a clinical trial published; it shows taking the supplement does indeed increase NAD levels. I’m not yet completely convinced personally that this helps, I’m also not persuaded that this does not harm in anyway. Please note the one thing that’s proven again and again in multiple studies: people who take supplements die faster of everything. We don’t know why, and until we do I’m hesitant of increasing my supplement load.
- krageon 4y agoWhen you have hard to diagnose chronic issues, the first thing a GP will do is give you supplements. Not very surprising the people taking them are at more risk of dying.
- upsidesinclude 4y agoTotally agree, this is the 'vitamin D kills' theory. Nope, doctors just give old people vitD because they are deficient and also old people die. People have are hard time utilizing statistics that actually retain context. In fact, that may be the biggest problem in medicine today.

"Proven" is a strong word unless those are RCTs, or at least, natural experiments. Otherwise the causation issues should be obvious.
