14NBHC: A Study of the Pharmacokinetics of Three Dosages of Niagen in Healthy Subjects
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study in to analyse the way in which the body processes Niagen (nicotinamide riboside) in healthy people. Blood and urine samples from subjects who are given a dose of Niagen will be analyzed for metabolites over the 24 hours after taking the dose.
