The scoop
Each vial contains 1000 mg of NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) powder under a sealed cap. A 500mg vial is also available. Laboratory research only, adults 21+.
Sizing up the 1000mg vial
The 1000mg vial is the biggest NAD+ fill we stock: 1000 mg of freeze-dried powder for $60.00, or $0.06 per mg. That is 2 times the powder of the 500mg vial, at 14% less per mg than the 500mg vial. Full-blizzard size, for labs planning longer research runs.
One size down, the 500mg vial holds 500 mg less and costs $25.00 less. Per milligram, the 500mg vial comes in at $0.07, versus $0.06 here. Stacking 2 of the 500mg vials would give you the same 1000 mg as this one vial: $70.00 at single-vial prices, versus $60.00 here.

NAD+ coenzyme: a research overview
NAD+ is a quiet workhorse of cell biology. Strictly speaking it is a coenzyme rather than a peptide, and it sits at the center of a lively field of aging research.
Please note: Snowman Research does not offer dosing information or usage guidance of any kind. Everything we list, this item included, is sold strictly for research purposes and nothing else.
Published findings
A recurring theme in reviews is that NAD+ in tissues and cells falls with age, a pattern reported in rodents and humans alike [1]. Animal studies have reported that raising NAD+ in older or diseased animals improved health measures and lengthened lifespan [2]. Much of that animal work used NAD+ precursors and other NAD-boosting compounds rather than NAD+ directly [3][2]. A 2021 review urged caution, noting that it remains unclear whether restoring NAD+ in older humans is safe or beneficial [1]. Overall, the strongest data are from cell and animal models.
Mechanism at a glance
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide shuttles electrons in oxidation-reduction reactions and serves as a cosubstrate for sirtuins and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases [3]. It is also consumed by CD38, and it influences DNA repair, chromatin remodeling, senescence and immune function [1].
Regulatory & WADA notes
The NAD+ offered here is a laboratory reagent, not an FDA-approved drug. WADA's 2026 List doesn't name NAD+ itself. Separately, the List's method M2.2 bans intravenous infusions and/or injections above 100 mL per 12-hour period unless legitimately received during hospital treatment, surgery or clinical diagnostic investigations, whatever the substance [4].
Thanks for reading. Stay warm, and keep your bench notes tidy.
