Cytoplan Nicotinamide Riboside 300mg 60 Capsules is a food supplement providing nicotinamide riboside chloride, a form of vitamin B3 (niacin) that the body converts into NAD+, taken as two capsules a day. Each daily dose provides 300mg of nicotinamide riboside, the maximum daily amount currently authorised for this novel food ingredient in Great Britain.

Key Features

• 300mg nicotinamide riboside per day: Two capsules provide the maximum daily amount of nicotinamide riboside chloride currently authorised as a novel food in Great Britain.
• A source of niacin (vitamin B3): Nicotinamide riboside chloride is an authorised source of niacin, which contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism and helps reduce tiredness and fatigue.
• Converts to NAD+ in the body: The body converts nicotinamide riboside into nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+), a coenzyme found in every living cell.
• Vegan and vegetarian suitable: Uses a vegetable (hydroxypropyl methylcellulose) capsule shell rather than gelatine.
• Free from common allergens and additives: Free from GMO, gluten, wheat, soy, dairy, added sugar, flavourings and colourings.

Is this supplement safe to take during pregnancy or breastfeeding?

Cytoplan advises against the full 300mg (2 capsule) daily dose during pregnancy or breastfeeding, but states that 1 capsule (150mg) is considered safe. Seek advice from a healthcare professional before use if you're pregnant or breastfeeding.

What's the difference between this and Cytoplan's 100mg Nicotinamide Riboside?

Cytoplan also sells a 100mg Nicotinamide Riboside product. This 300mg version provides three times the amount of nicotinamide riboside per recommended daily dose.

Is nicotinamide riboside the same as niacin (vitamin B3)?

Nicotinamide riboside chloride is legally recognised as a source of niacin in Great Britain, though it's a distinct compound from standard niacin or nicotinamide supplements.

Active ingredient: Nicotinamide riboside chloride, providing 300mg of nicotinamide riboside per daily dose of 2 capsules (150mg per capsule). This is authorised as a novel food source of niacin (vitamin B3) in Great Britain, at a maximum daily amount of 300mg.

Other ingredients: Bulking agent (brown rice powder), capsule shell (hydroxypropyl methylcellulose).

Additional information: Free from GMO, gluten, wheat, soy, dairy, added sugar, flavourings and colourings. Suitable for vegetarians and vegans.

Take 1 capsule twice daily with food, providing 300mg of nicotinamide riboside per day, or as directed by a practitioner.

The following precautions apply:

• If pregnant or breastfeeding, do not take the full 300mg (2 capsule) daily dose. Cytoplan states 1 capsule (150mg) is considered safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding; seek advice from a healthcare professional before use.
• Food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a varied and balanced diet.
