Who We Are

We Are Pioneers of Innovation and Research.

We want to get the most out of every moment. Our purpose is to invigorate life, even through challenging times.

Now more than ever, we are focusing on what really matters. Checking in on neighbors, sharing the latest scientific information, video chatting with family, friends, and colleagues—our society has stepped up in an extraordinary way to support one another. It seems the best of us emerges during the toughest of times.

I feel very fortunate to work at a company whose product can help us support our cellular health—which is health at the most foundational level. Tru Niagen® supports your levels of NAD+, which is critical to generating energy within the trillions of cells throughout your body. These levels decline not only with age but also with physiological stress on your body. Without NAD+, your cells can't function properly, and neither can you.

The science behind NAD+, Niagen®, and cellular health continues to grow at an unparalleled rate. That is why I send Tru Niagen® to my loved ones, and I encourage the Tru Niagen® community to share the science as well.

To your health,

Rob Fried

CEO, ChromaDex
