Product Description

Elysium Health developed Basis with MIT researchers. Each serving delivers 250 mg nicotinamide riboside and 50 mg pterostilbene in vegetarian capsules. The formula is regularly used in the brand’s own clinical studies.

What We Like

  • NR and pterostilbene combined, reducing pill burden
  • Scientific advisory board (including David Sinclair) drives research engagement
  • Capsules are tasteless and easy on the stomach
  • Subscription pricing saves up to 15%

What We’re Missing

  • Not all COAs are publicly available
  • Shipped from the US — potential customs duties for EU buyers

Usage Recommendation

2 capsules daily with any meal. Sensitive individuals may start with 1 capsule and increase after 1–2 weeks.

Ingredient dossier

Like NMN, NR is a NAD+ precursor — but unlike NMN, it is approved as a Novel Food in the EU. Human studies confirm NAD+ elevation; clinical benefits remain unclear.
