What to check on the label

  • The unit on the label (µg, mg or IU) before comparing with the figures here.
  • For K2, which form is named (MK-4 or MK-7). The catalog stores the total.
  • Liquid drops: how many drops the label calls a serving, since the container count depends on it.

Amounts are per label serving as recorded in the catalog and are not a recommendation. Testing status reflects what the brand lists. Nothing here is medical advice.

Evidence gates dose: the evidence grade sets the ceiling, and the dose decides how much of that ceiling the product reaches. Value = inverse of price-per-trial-dose-day. Community = mean sentiment of external reviews. Safety caps applied after weighting.

This score is our editorial judgment, not a scientific standard. We combine published evidence, dose, price, transparency, and consumer signals into one composite: this is our method, not a peer-reviewed clinical rating. A higher score means a product does better on the factors we weight, not that it is medically proven to work.

Why this scored this way

This Tru Niagen (ChromaDex) Tru Niagen Immune scores 6.6, making it a mid-tier product with both strengths and weaknesses. It delivers 20mg of Zinc, inside the studied range of 10–30mg with grade A evidence (strong human trial data). The quality transparency (5.0) is limited by the lack of third-party testing. At $2.73/day it's among the more expensive options in Vitamin.

What drives the score up

  • Dose-evidence score of 7.9 shows decent alignment with trial doses.
  • Zinc is dosed at the full research level with grade A evidence (strong human trial data).
  • Vitamin C has grade A evidence and is dosed at 90% of the trial dose.
  • Vitamin C adds grade A evidence at 90% of the trial dose.

What drags it down

  • Vitamin C (180.0mg is 36% of the 500mg trial dose) is significantly under-dosed.
  • Curcumin (30.0mg is 3% of the 1000mg trial dose) is significantly under-dosed.
  • No third-party testing, which caps the quality transparency.
  • Quality transparency of 5.0 is below the site average.
  • At $2.73/day it's on the expensive side.

Why you'd choose it

  • You want Zinc from a Tru Niagen (ChromaDex) product.
  • You want doses that align with published research.

Why you might skip it

  • You want third-party verified purity.
  • You want a product with a publicly available CoA.
  • You need a full trial dose of vitamin c (this product under-doses it).
Question 1

Does the molecule work?

The science behind each active ingredient, independent of which brand sells it.

NR

The NAD+ precursor with the strongest safety file and EU approval.

2 landmark RCTs · US: GRAS, NDI accepted · EU: Authorised Novel Food (Commission Reg 2020/16)
Vitamin C

Correcting deficiency is important; megadoses rarely add benefit.

4 landmark RCTs · US: Dietary supplement · EU: Food supplement
Zinc

Essential mineral for immunity and skin; watch out for copper depletion.

3 landmark RCTs · US: Dietary supplement · EU: Food supplement
Curcumin

Turmeric's active compound; genuinely anti-inflammatory but only in absorbable forms.

Full ingredient breakdown

Every active in this formula, its declared dose per serving, the dose used in the primary human trial, how much of that trial dose this product delivers, and the evidence grade for the ingredient itself.

IngredientDose / servingResearch dose% of researchEvidence grade
NR150 mg300 mg50%B
Vitamin C180 mg500 mg36%A
Zinc20 mg15 mg133%A
Curcumin30 mg1000 mg3%B

Percentages are dose per serving ÷ primary trial dose. Below 50% means the formula is unlikely to reproduce the trial outcome for that active. Grade A = multiple large human RCTs. Grade F = no human evidence. How grades work. Full glossary →

Evidence, claims & regulation

Published evidence, claim checks, regulatory status and what could not be verified.

Important to know
NRAlmost all commercial NR uses licensed Niagen® from ChromaDex. If a product doesn't say Niagen, ask why.
Vitamin CHigh doses cause GI upset. Buffered forms gentler. Liposomal marketing typically overstated for chronic use.
ZincChronic >50 mg/day causes copper deficiency.
CurcuminProducts with just 'turmeric extract' and no branded delivery system are not bioavailable. Ask for the specific bioavailability system.

Editorial notes

A genuine combination product pairing 150mg NR with vitamin D3, vitamin C, zinc, and Theracurmin curcumin, the closest thing in the current lineup to a 'longevity multivitamin,' but the NR dose is half the standard 300mg serving, so it's best understood as a stacking companion rather than a primary NAD+ product.
