Why don’t you use nicotinamide ribose or nicotinamide mononucleotide?

At the time when we first created, and later when we upgraded Qualia Life, the company that supplies the patented form of Nicotinamide Riboside (NIAGEN®) had decided they would not sell this ingredient to other companies. Long story short, they wanted to only use it under their own company branding. 

This changed recently, and we have partnered with the supplier and are able to offer this ingredient, leading us to create Qualia NAD+, a formula that takes the qualialife.complex systems science approach and applies it to making NAD+.

For people who wish to take Nicotinamide Riboside, in addition to or instead of the NAD+ support provided by Qualia Life, you'll find Nicotinamide Riboside in Qualia NAD+. Qualia Life also takes a complex systems approach to supporting NAD+: It contains niacin (nicotinic acid), niacinamide, and L-tryptophan to support three different ways of making NAD+. 

Qualia Life also supplies comprehensive support for pathways and processes involved in NAD+ metabolism.*Qualia Life does not contain NMN (nicotinamide mononucleotide) because the FDA has determined that NMN is excluded from the definition of dietary supplement. 

*These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.  This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.

How should I take Qualia Life?

How much water should I drink with Qualia Life?

When using the Qualia Life capsules, we recommend drinking a big glass of water (at least 8 ounces) when you take them, and making sure you drink plenty of fluids throughout the day, especially during the first week. One of the ingredients—creatine (as tricreatine malate)—is believed to pull water into cells. Because of this, it’s important to make sure you pay special attention to being and staying hydrated when you first begin to use products with this ingredient.
