Nicotinamide Riboside

for Alzheimer's Disease

This trial is testing nicotinamide riboside (NR), a form of vitamin B3, to see if it can help people with early memory problems or mild Alzheimer's. The idea is that NR can boost a molecule called NAD+ in the brain, which helps cells produce energy and reduces stress. Researchers hope this will improve brain function in these patients. Nicotinamide riboside (NR) is a precursor to NAD+ and has shown potential in improving learning and memory in animal models of dementia.
