This NAD+ powder (Which is not accurately depicted in the product image listed with bulk naturals, which depicts a more powdery product far less crystalline than product actually is) is offered at one of the most competitive price points on the market, making it an excellent option for formulators and researchers working on a budget. While the affordability is an advantage, it’s important to note that this product contains a significantly higher moisture content than many premium alternatives. As a result, it may not dissolve efficiently in high-concentration, water-based cosmetic formulations unless additional solubilizers or more aggressive solvents are introduced.
That said, the lower cost makes it ideal for prototyping or experimental use, where minor material losses are more acceptable. It serves well as a learning or development-grade NAD+, allowing formulators to refine techniques without the financial pressure that often comes with high-purity, low-moisture NAD+ powders.
For those unfamiliar with the documentation abbreviations listed in the end of the product description section, abbreviations under the label "Documents" are:
SDS (Safety Data Sheet): Contains essential information about safe handling, storage, and potential hazards. This particular SDS also confirms that the product is rated for cosmetic use, whereas nowhere else (such as the description) does it mention its cosmetic grade quality.
CoA (Certificate of Analysis): Verifies the product’s identity and purity through lab testing, typically including assay percentages, appearance, and contaminant screening.
In summary, while not ideal for final or high-end formulations requiring optimal solubility and stability, this NAD+ is a great value for early-stage R&D, bulk processing experiments, or cost-sensitive applications.
