What to check on the label

  • Which precursor is named. NMN and NR are different molecules and are not interchangeable milligram for milligram.
  • Whether the milligram figure is per capsule or per serving of several capsules. The catalog records per serving.
  • Whether a certificate of analysis (CoA) is published for the batch you buy. The catalog only records whether the brand lists one.
  • Added ingredients (resveratrol, TMG, quercetin) are listed with their own amounts below. Read them separately.

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.

Composite How this 7.6 is built. 0.50 × 8.0 + 0.20 × 8.0 + 0.10 × 7.4 + 0.10 × 5.0 + 0.05 × 8.5 + 0.05 × 6.7 = 7.6 out of 10. Safety caps applied after. 7.6

Community5%6.7

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 PRO 500mg scores 7.6, making it a strong scorer. It delivers 500mg of NR, inside the studied range of 100–1000mg with grade B evidence (promising human data, not yet comprehensive). At $1.92/day it's among the more expensive options in NAD+ booster.

What drives the score up

  • No public lab certificate available for independent verification.

Editorial notes

A mid-strength 500mg NR capsule positioned between the consumer 300mg and Pro 1000mg tiers, distinguished mainly by NSF Certified for Sport status and a practitioner-only distribution channel, useful for athletes needing banned-substance assurance, but not purchasable directly from the main Tru Niagen storefront.
