Detailed Analysis
Taking NAD supplements with tannin-containing products may impact energy production in the body. Tannins have been shown to inhibit a key enzyme involved in energy production. This interaction may require attention to timing and dosage. Tannins, specifically tannic acid, can inhibit the activity of NADH oxidase, an enzyme crucial for energy production in mitochondria. NADH oxidase helps convert NADH into NAD+, a essential step in generating energy for the cell. By inhibiting this enzyme, tannins may reduce the effectiveness of NAD supplements.
