The partnership aligns Niagen Bioscience’s innovative, science-backed, pharmaceutical-grade NAD+-boosting Niagen products with iCRYO’s clientele, who seek accessible, preventative solutions to maintain long-term health and vitality.
“Niagen IV is now offered at over 900 clinics nationwide, including the new iCRYO locations,” stated Rob Fried, CEO of Niagen Bioscience. “This milestone highlights the growing recognition of Niagen IV and injections as essential tools for supporting healthspan.”
Niagen, Niagen Bioscience’s patented nicotinamide riboside (NR) ingredient, is the most efficient and high-quality NAD+ booster available orally as Tru Niagen®, and as IV and injectable products as Niagen Plus. A coenzyme vital to cellular health, NAD+ is essential for energy, DNA repair, and metabolism; however, levels decline with age and stress. While NAD+ decline has been associated with changes in health and vitality, research demonstrates that restoring NAD+ improves cellular function, metabolic health, and markers of aging.
“We are thrilled to partner with Niagen Bioscience, a global leader in NAD+ research and innovation, to bring their clinically proven Niagen Plus products to iCRYO centers everywhere,” said Kyle Jones, CEO and Co-founder of iCRYO. “This collaboration aligns with our mission to elevate the standard of health, wellness, and longevity globally through cutting-edge solutions that are increasingly more effective and efficient. With Niagen, we are equipping our franchisees and serving our guests with the very best.”
Outperforming NAD+ IV in a pilot clinical study, Niagen IV offers superior tolerability, a 75% shorter infusion time (30-45 minute infusion time for Niagen IV vs several hour infusion time for NAD+ IV), and results in a statistically significant 20% increase in whole blood NAD+ levels three hours post-infusion, as measured by NAD+ dried blood spot tests (MedRxiv). Because NAD+ is not bioavailable and cannot effectively raise NAD+ levels in the body, supplementing with NAD+ itself is not recommended. Furthermore, oral or intravenous NAD+ supplementation has not been well studied in humans, and its safety and efficacy remain unproven. Pharmaceutical-grade Niagen NR is the only clinically validated intravenous solution available for supporting NAD+.
Phil Singer, DO, MBA, FACEP, Chief Medical Officer of iCRYO, commented, “As a physician, I understand the profound impact of NAD+ on cellular function and overall health. Niagen Bioscience’s scientifically validated products, backed by some of the greatest researchers and innovators in the industry, provide our guests with a powerful tool to enhance energy, support metabolic health, and promote longevity, perfectly complementing our commitment to evidence-based solutions. That is why I am personally excited to introduce Niagen into iCRYO’s medical offerings across all our centers.”
By reaching over 900 clinics, including more than 50 iCRYO centers, Niagen Plus enhances nationwide access to clinically validated NAD+-boosting therapies for those seeking to improve cellular health and overall well-being.
