Effects of nicotinamide riboside on endocrine pancreatic function and incretin hormones in obese, non-diabetic men.

CONCLUSION: The present study does not provide evidence to support that dietary supplementation with the NAD+ precursor NR serves to impact glucose tolerance, β-cell secretory capacity, α-cell function, and incretin hormone secretion in obese, non-diabetic males. Moreover, bile acid levels in plasma did not change in response to NR supplementation.
