Disclosures

NAD Picks is reader-supported. This page says exactly how, where those payments are disclosed, and what that money can and cannot change. It is written to meet the FTC’s endorsement guides (16 CFR Part 255) and its “.com Disclosures” guidance on clear and conspicuous disclosure.

1. How we are paid

We earn affiliate commissions. If you click through to a provider from this site and start a program, we may be paid for that, at no extra cost to you — the price you see is the price you pay, and it is the same price as if you had typed the provider’s address in directly. That payment is what keeps this free to read. It is a “material connection” under 16 CFR Part 255, and we disclose it here, on the pages it applies to, and immediately above the links themselves.

Our disclosure is computed from the links actually on the page you are reading, not pasted onto every page. A page that earns nothing from its links says so instead of hedging — which is the only way the notice means anything where it does appear.

2. Who pays us

Outbound partner links run through a third-party affiliate network. Some of the NAD⁺ providers we cover have a paid relationship with us through it; many do not, and we are paid nothing for those.

We do not keep a roster of partner names on this page. A hand-kept list here would go stale the first time a program opened, closed or was paused, and a stale disclosure is worse than a plain one. Instead the disclosure is made where it actually matters — on the page you are reading, immediately above the links themselves, computed from the links that are genuinely on it. A page that earns nothing from its links says so.

If you want to know whether a particular provider pays us, ask and we will tell you: editorial@nadpicks.com.

3. What the money buys, and what it does not

It buys placement. Partners are listed first on boards and may appear in featured modules. Where that is the case, it is labeled.

It does not buy the verdict. Not the score, not the ranking rationale, not a safety statement, and declining to partner with us is never punished with a worse one. That is structural rather than aspirational: the function that computes a score is not given the provider’s commercial status, and a test asserts an identical score either way. Nature of reviews walks through it.

4. We turn programs down

The clearest evidence that the firewall holds is the money we are not taking. The NAD⁺ products with the strongest human evidence in this category are oral precursors, and we are in none of their affiliate programs — we declined. We still rate them highest on evidence, and we still tell you to consider them before a $200-a-month injection, on pages that earn us nothing when you take that advice.

A recommendation we cannot be paid for is the strongest signal of independence we are able to give you, so we would rather point at it than ask you to take the firewall on trust.

5. Who we are, and what we do not cover

An independent publisher. Not a medical provider, not a pharmacy, not a telehealth company, and not affiliated with any manufacturer beyond ordinary affiliate agreements. We do not cover every NAD⁺ seller in existence — coverage follows what readers are actually choosing between and where there is evidence to choose on.

6. Not medical advice

This is research and education, not medical advice, and it creates no doctor–patient relationship. NAD⁺ preparations are not right for everyone, and the injectable, IV and nasal forms sold through telehealth are compounded — not FDA-approved, and not reviewed by the FDA for safety, efficacy or quality before they reach you. Talk to a licensed clinician before starting, stopping or changing anything. Prices and availability move constantly; check the provider’s own page before you act. Full terms are in our Terms of Use.

7. Trademarks

Niagen® and Tru Niagen® are marks of ChromaDex, Inc. Provider and product names, logos and marks referenced here are the property of their respective owners and are used only to identify what is being discussed. Their use does not imply endorsement or affiliation.

8. Privacy

Following an affiliate link may pass a non-identifying referral code to the destination. It does not send them personal information about you from us, and our analytics do not load until you consent. See our Privacy Policy for how we handle data and your rights under GDPR and CCPA/CPRA.
