'NAD+' branded product from small vendor 1776 Sports Nutrition. Held below Standard by two structural issues: (1) DIRECT ORAL NAD+ has a mechanism problem — NAD+ is a large charged molecule that doesn't cross the gut wall intact; oral NAD+ is broken down to nicotinamide + ADP-ribose in the GI tract, then absorbed and re-synthesized intracellularly. Products labeled 'NAD+' without disclosing whether they're actually NAD+, NR, NMN, or plain niacinamide are marketing ambiguity that hides the actual active. Effective NAD+ precursor supplementation uses NR (nicotinamide riboside) or NMN (nicotinamide mononucleotide) — both of which have their own published bioavailability data. (2) 1776 Sports Nutrition is a small brand without established quality track record. (3) Per-cap dose not disclosed at product name. (4) No third-party COA. Would move to Standard 55+ with clarity on actual active molecule + dose + established sourcing.
The Vyvata score's Evidence dimension measures the quality of published RCT support for a product's active ingredients at the label dose. Our source hierarchy: double-blind RCTs in MEDLINE-indexed journals > single-blind RCTs > open-label trials > observational studies > mechanism papers > N=1 case studies (anecdotes). Predatory journals and manufacturer-authored studies without independent replication are weighted down.
Product-specific evidence citations for this item are embedded in the analysis text on the "Analysis" tab. For the full framework and evidence hierarchy, see the methodology page.

Strongest: Safety at 60/100 (adverse-event profile, interaction risk, and dose ceiling) and Formulation at 45/100 (dose adequacy, bioavailability form, and ingredient redundancy). Weakest: Evidence at 42/100 (quality of published RCT support for the active ingredients at the label dose) and Transparency at 38/100 (dose disclosure vs proprietary blends, and honesty of marketing claims). All six dimensions feed the overall Vyvata score; a weakness on any one dimension pulls the overall down proportionally.
No third-party certifications (NSF, USP, ConsumerLab, or equivalent) were on record at the time of scoring. This affects the Manufacturing dimension score. The manufacturer may test internally or have obtained certification more recently — check the current product label for the most up-to-date information.
