Someone linked in the comments where to buy this pill.

It has only 2 ingredients.
Nicotinamide Riboside 250mg
Pterostilbene 50mg
All this for $60 per month!
Should we not build our own?
pTerostilbene I found 3 different options for.
Bulk - 100 grams - $81.50 ( 2000, 50 mg doses )
- 200 grams - $146.70 ( 4000, 50 mg doses )

Caps - 60 caps, 50 mg - $14.69

Caps - 100 Caps, 100 mg - $14.99

So then the next question is how much should Nicotinamide Riboside actually cost?
What they were answering

Isn't this the patent Chromadex licence? (I thought it was common knowledge that they use fermentation)
US8114626 B2 Yeast strain and method for using the same to produce nicotinamide riboside

I think it might actually be part of it. I guess Chromadex did not develop the method, but merely bought IP from Darthmouth and Cornell. That would explain why there are no records for Chromadex. It would also explain why my labs do not know about it. It's a biological synthesis method, not a chemical one. If that is the case, that might make NR cheap enough to market at current prices. I knew a fermentation process existed. I just did not know that is what Chromadex was referring to. It's kind of like the Suntheanine synth for L-Theanine.
It still does not explain why I feel absolutely nothing from even high doses.
