The Solgar Cellular Energy is a dietary supplement in phytocapsules, with 300mg NIAGEN (chlorinated ribosylnicotinamide) per phytocapsule, accompanied by vitamin B3, vitamin C, thiamine, riboflavin, pantothenic acid, vitamin B6, biotin, and vitamin B12. The package contains 14 phytocapsules, which is a two-week supply.
It is aimed at adults with intense mental and physical workload who feel fatigue and want to cover their intake of B vitamins. The 14 phytocapsule package is the small version, suitable for a first trial or a short cycle.
Every cell needs a molecule that carries electrons from one reaction to another. This molecule is NAD, nicotinamidoadeninidinedinucleotide, and it participates in metabolic processes through which carbohydrates, fats, and proteins are converted into usable energy. Chlorinated ribosylnicotinamide is a form of vitamin B3 that the body uses as a precursor for NAD synthesis.
Here, clarity is needed. Ribosylnicotinamide as such does not have a separate approved health claim and remains the subject of active research. The approved reason in the formula belongs to the vitamins: vitamin B3, namely niacin, contributes to normal energy metabolism and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue*. The same applies to riboflavin, pantothenic acid, vitamin B6, vitamin B12, and vitamin C, all of which have the claim of reducing fatigue*.
According to the product presentation by Solgar itself, the company describes the formula as follows:
The above formulations are attributed to the producer. Especially for ribosylnicotinamide, there is no approved health claim by EFSA and the ingredient remains the subject of research.
It suits workers with demanding schedules and intense mental fatigue who want to cover their B vitamins. It suits people with increased physical activity. It suits adults over forty who want to try a NIAGEN formula before committing to a larger package. Finally, it suits vegans. It is intended exclusively for adults, not suitable for pregnancy or lactation, and is a dietary supplement that does not replace a medical diagnosis.
