What is NADH?

NADH is one of Herb Nutritionals Co., Ltd’s novel ingredients on the market with bulk quantity supply. NADH, according to Wikipedia, stands for "nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) + hydrogen (H)", one of the most important coenzymes in the human brain and body. NADH is the reduced form of Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD) with High Energy Hydrogen (H) which reacts with the oxygen present in our cells to produce energy.  When the body is deficient in NADH, it is like a car that has run out of petrol – it doesn’t go very far or very fast!  In essence, the more NADH we have, the more energy we and our cells can produce!  NADH is the driving force of cellular energy production.

Relation between NADH and NAD

The interconversion of NAD between the reduced (NADH) and oxidized (NAD+) forms is a common reaction in biological redox (oxidation-reduction) reactions. In cells, most oxidations are accomplished by the removal of hydrogen atoms. Each molecule of NAD+ can acquire two electrons; that is, be reduced by two electrons. However, only one proton accompanies the reduction. The other proton produced as two hydrogen atoms are removed from the molecule being oxidized is liberated into the surrounding medium. For NAD, the reaction is thus:

NAD+ + 2H -> NADH + H+

Benefits of taking NADH supplement
Health Applications
Energy enhancement
Neurological health
Fatigue

Energy
NADH is an excellent energy supplement that plays a key role in the energy production of cells, particularly in the brain, the central nervous system and the muscles (remember your heart is a muscle). In simple terms, the more NADH a cell has available, the more energy it can produce to perform its processes efficiently and the longer it survives.

Natural Cellular Stimulation
NADH is an excellent energy supplement that plays a key role in the energy production of cells, particularly in the brain, heart, muscles and central nervous system. The more NADH a cell has, the more energy that cell has allowing it to perform its processes efficiently.

Weight Loss
NADH stimulates tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) which is the key enzyme for the production of Dopamine, up to 70%.

Dopamine is one of the factors in controlling a person’s appetite, the higher the dopamine level the lower the appetite. This may be of particular interest to those overweight individuals.
