Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (nad) is a compound that occurs naturally in human cells and is also available in supplement form.

Milder short-term nad supplement side effects such as skin flushing, headache, dizziness, and liver toxicity may also occur. It is important to follow the instructions on the supplement label. In addition, nad supplements may interact with certain medications and reduce the effectiveness of these medications, including antidepressants and insulin.
In order to prevent the harm of nad supplement side effects to the human body, the safest way to obtain nad is to increase the level of NAD (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) in the body by taking vitamin B3 (niacin or niacinamide) in the diet.

5. Cereals: such as whole wheat bread, brown rice, corn, etc., they are rich in B vitamins, including vitamin B3.
In order to maintain the level of NAD in the body, it is recommended to maintain a balanced diet and take enough vitamin B3.
