Supplements

The fifth daily-intake aisle. Longevity-oriented specialty compounds — named, not a miracle wall. NMN, nattokinase, CoQ10, krill oil, astaxanthin, fish oil TG, fisetin, and more have live lanes.

Overview

Specialty stacks, after the plate.

CytoDaily’s Supplements aisle covers compounds people often shop for under longevity and healthy-aging folklore — not the same as Minerals, Vitamins, Fuel macros, or Flavour spices. Food and basics still come first.

What belongs here

Live now: NMN / NAD+ precursors, nattokinase, CoQ10, PQQ, ALA, TMG, taurine, resveratrol, spermidine, citrulline, dietary nitrate, fisetin, krill oil, astaxanthin, and fish oil TG (four form lanes each where listed). Shortlists require disclosed form and dose — never “cures aging” or “extends mitochondrial lifespan” copy. There is no class named Nitric Oxide.

What does not belong here

Minerals and vitamins (those aisles). Protein, electrolytes, and creatine (Fuel). Kitchen turmeric and pepper (Flavour) — not curcumin or piperine pills. Pre-workout “NO blend” tubs. Rapamycin, metformin, and other prescription longevity protocols. IV NAD. Disease clinics.

How to use this aisle

  1. Cover Minerals, Vitamins, and Fuel food patterns first.
  2. Read class boundaries — especially blood-thinning context for nattokinase.
  3. Open a live pick only after you read the class caution — especially nattokinase.
  4. Evidence debates belong on Outlive.club when a brief exists.

Supplement map

Specialty classes. One filter.

NMN / NAD+, nattokinase, CoQ10, krill oil, astaxanthin, fish oil TG, fisetin, and more each have four live form lanes where listed.

Class 01 · Longevity specialty

NMN / NAD+ precursors

What it is. Nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) and nicotinamide riboside (NR) are NAD+ precursor supplements widely marketed in longevity circles. CytoDaily maps form and dose honesty — it does not sell “reverse aging” or disease treatment.

Food / baseline first. Sleep, protein, minerals, and vitamins remain the foundation. Specialty precursors are a second layer for people who already cover basics.

Forms we shortlist. Modest NMN 250 mg serving (split capsules), NOW 250 mg per capsule, mid NMN 500 mg serving, and patented NR 300 mg. Unknown 1,000 mg no-name NMN bottles stay off. Do not stack all four.

Boundaries. Count milligrams per serving vs per capsule. NMN is not NR. Regulatory status differs by country. Pregnancy, cancer care, and unexplained illness belong with a clinician. Seller “anti-aging” language stays on the listing.

Outlive: “live to 159” is a metaphor, not a ticket — milligrams here; not a lifespan protocol.

Label

What to check

Compound name (NMN vs NR vs NAD+), milligrams per serving, capsules per serving, and count.

Not

Not on this aisle

Prescription NAD therapies, IV clinic protocols, or unverified 1,000 mg powders without a named brand.

Index

Keep separate

NR is not a Vitamins B3 / niacin shortlist. Basics stay on Minerals and Vitamins.

Live picks

NMN / NAD+ precursor shortlist

Four form lanes: split-dose 250 mg NMN serving, 250 mg per capsule, 500 mg serving, NR 300 mg. Not reverse aging.

Class 02 · Longevity specialty

Nattokinase

What it is. An enzyme, not a vegetable. Capsules are labeled in FU (fibrinolytic units). Carts sell it in the same “vessel” aisle as food-line magnesium and beet nitrate; CytoDaily hangs that map on blood vessels because that is how it is sold, not because it is the same upkeep as Outlive 64361.

Food first. A dish of natto is not a FU capsule. Traditional natto is food; the bottle is a concentrated enzyme with different interaction risks.

Forms we shortlist. 2,000 FU veg cap with vitamin K2 removed; named NSK-SD 2,000 FU veg cap; 4,000 FU two-capsule serving (caution); NSK-SD 2,000 FU softgel. Kitchen-sink 10,000 FU blends stay off. Do not stack all four.

Boundaries. Anyone on blood thinners, with bleeding risk, before surgery, or with cardiovascular disease needs a clinician before any nattokinase supplement. Soy allergy is a stop. Seller clot language stays on the listing.

Outlive: nattokinase — dish first, then FU on the capsule — not a clot clinic; plate line stays on 64361.

Label

What to check

Activity in FU, milligrams, capsules per serving, soy, and whether K2 is claimed removed.

Caution

Interactions

Blood-thinning context is the hard stop. Do not stack with anticoagulant regimens without medical guidance.

Not

Not a clot clinic

Food natto ≠ capsule. CytoDaily will not claim this treats clots, stroke, or heart disease.

Live picks

Nattokinase shortlist

Four form lanes: 2,000 FU K2-removed, NSK-SD veg cap, 4,000 FU serving caution, NSK-SD softgel.

Class 03 · Mitochondrial kin

CoQ10, PQQ, ALA, TMG, and taurine.

CoQ10, PQQ, ALA, TMG, and taurine each have four live form lanes. Not a mitochondrial-lifespan clinic.

Teaching split. These bottles sit in longevity carts because sellers talk mitochondria. CytoDaily will shortlist them only as named forms and milligrams — never as “extends organelle lifespan” or a heart-disease aisle.

CoQ10

Ubiquinone vs ubiquinol

Name the form and milligrams per serving. Fat-soluble: take with a meal that has fat. Statin and heart-failure questions belong with a clinician. Pump maps on Heart; lining stays on blood vessels — not a cardiac aisle. Seller energy language stays on the listing. Do not stack all four lanes. Outlive: vessels — food first, then magnesium and dietary nitrate.

PQQ

Not CoQ10

Pyrroloquinoline quinone is a different compound from CoQ10. Standalone PQQ only — no CoQ10+PQQ blends, no NOW PQQ Energy. Do not stack all four lanes. Seller mitochondrial language stays on the listing.

ALA

Alpha-lipoic acid

Disclose R-ALA vs racemic mixed isomers and milligrams — R-ALA is not the same milligram as racemic ALA. Not a diabetes or neuropathy protocol; seller glucose and nerve language stays on the listing. Thyroid / biotin interaction questions are clinical; biotin is disclosed on the Na-RALA lane. Avoid benfotiamine+ALA and ALA+curcumin blends. Do not stack all four lanes.

TMG

Trimethylglycine / betaine anhydrous

TMG = trimethylglycine = betaine anhydrous — not betaine HCl (stomach acid). Beets, spinach, and wheat bran come first. Often stacked next to NMN in folklore; this class is standalone betaine anhydrous, not a TMG+NMN combo bottle. Count milligrams per capsule or tablet vs per serving. Not a homocysteine or cardiovascular treatment aisle; seller language stays on the listing. Avoid TMG+NMN blends, betaine HCl, and pre-workout kitchen sinks. Do not stack all four lanes.

Taurine

Amino sulfonic acid

Seafood and meat first. Longevity papers exist; energy-drink grams are not a CytoDaily dose table. Kidney disease is clinical. Often discussed with Heart and Brain maps — not treatment. Four live lanes below. Avoid pre-workout stacks. Do not stack all four lanes.

Not here

Creatine stays on Fuel

Creatine is muscle work substrate, closer to protein than to NMN. It will not be shortlisted on this aisle. Live Fuel lanes: Fuel · Creatine.

Live picks

CoQ10 shortlist

Modest oil 100 mg ubiquinone, grocery 200 mg USP, reduced ubiquinol 100 mg, dry 200 mg veg cap. Not a heart or statin clinic.

Live picks

PQQ shortlist

Life Extension 10 mg veg, Jarrow 10 mg, Doctor’s Best BioPQQ 20 mg veg, Jarrow BioPQQ 20 mg gelatin. Standalone PQQ only. Do not stack all four.

Live picks

ALA shortlist

Doctor’s Best racemic 150 mg, racemic 300 mg, Na-RALA 100 mg + biotin, racemic 600 mg caution. R-ALA is not racemic milligrams. Do not stack all four.

Live picks

TMG shortlist

NutraBio 500 mg veg, TNVitamins 500 mg tablet (replaces delisted Jarrow), Life Extension 500 mg liquid veg (2-cap serving caution), NOW 1000 mg tablet caution. Betaine anhydrous only — not betaine HCl. Do not stack all four.

Live picks

Taurine shortlist

Nutricology 500 mg modest, Jarrow 1000 mg, Nutricost 1000 mg caution, BulkSupplements powder ~2 g caution. Seafood and meat first. Energy-drink grams are not a dose table. Do not stack all four.

Live SKUs on NMN / NAD+, nattokinase, CoQ10, PQQ, ALA, TMG, taurine, resveratrol, spermidine, citrulline, dietary nitrate, fisetin, krill oil, astaxanthin, and fish oil TG.

Class 04 · Polyphenols & named NO precursors

Resveratrol, spermidine, citrulline, dietary nitrate, fisetin.

Named compounds. There is no CytoDaily class called “Nitric Oxide.”

Teaching split. Endogenous NO signaling and vascular aging are research topics. Amazon does not sell the gas. If a bottle is on this map, the label must name citrulline, arginine, or nitrate milligrams — not a mitochondrial-lifespan slogan. Resveratrol is not wine. Spermidine is not a senolytic clinic. Fisetin milligrams are named; senolytic protocols stay off. Kitchen turmeric stays on Flavour.

Resveratrol

Trans-resveratrol, milligrams

Disclose trans-resveratrol mg per serving. Not a wine protocol, not a Flavour grape jar, not an immunity wall. Piperine blends are a different job. Four live lanes below. Do not stack all four.

Spermidine

Food first, then milligrams

Wheat germ as food and as wheat-germ extract in capsules — three live lanes below name the extract and spermidine mg. Aged cheese and natto are food too. Seller collagen, beauty, or autophagy folklore stays on the listing. Synthetic 3HCL is the fourth lane. Do not stack wheat-germ bottles or all four lanes.

Citrulline

NO precursor — not “NO”

L-citrulline vs citrulline malate, grams per serving. Pre-workout kitchen-sink tubs stay off. Not a blood-pressure clinic. Seller mitochondrial-lifespan language stays on the listing. Four live lanes below. Do not stack all four. Outlive: vessels — food first, then magnesium and dietary nitrate.

Fisetin

Flavonol milligrams

Disclose fisetin mg per serving. Strawberries as food are not a dose. CytoDaily will not shortlist senolytic protocols. Four live lanes below. Do not stack all four.

Sister aisles

Keep basics separate

Minerals, Vitamins, and Fuel stay the foundation. Curcumin capsules stay off Flavour and off this shelf. Evidence debates: Outlive.club.

Live picks

Resveratrol shortlist

Doctor’s Best 100 mg modest, 200 mg ResVinol, Life Extension Elite 30 mg hydrogel (not Optimized/quercetin), 600 mg caution. Trans-resveratrol milligrams named. Not wine. Do not stack all four.

Live picks

Spermidine shortlist

spermidineLIFE 60 and 120 wheat-germ extract (~1 mg / 2 caps, same formula), ProHealth 1 mg wheat-germ extract per cap, Double Wood 10 mg 3HCL caution. Wheat germ as an ingredient is covered in the three extract lanes. Do not stack wheat-germ bottles. Do not stack all four.

Live picks

Citrulline shortlist

NOW 750 mg (2 caps = 1500 mg), BulkSupplements L-citrulline 3 g, citrulline malate 1:1 3 g, NOW 4 oz powder 1.5 g. Named citrulline, not Nitric Oxide. Do not stack all four.

Live picks

Dietary nitrate shortlist

KOYAH organic beet food-first, Beet It 400 mg nitrate shot, HumanN SuperBeets branded blend (not pure beet), BulkSupplements beet grams. Not a pump clinic. Do not stack all four.

Live picks

Fisetin shortlist

Doctor’s Best 100 mg Novusetin modest, Double Wood 100 mg, Nutricost 100 mg value, Toniiq 500 mg per serving caution. Strawberries are food. No senolytic protocol. Do not stack all four.

Class 05 · Marine lipids

Krill oil, astaxanthin, and fish oil TG.

Three separate classes. Fatty fish and algae food context first. No fish-oil-vs-krill superiority aisle.

Teaching split. Krill softgels deliver phospholipid-bound EPA/DHA plus label astaxanthin. Standalone astaxanthin is a carotenoid softgel from Haematococcus algae. Triglyceride fish oil and algae vegan DHA/EPA are a third omega-3 job. Do not stack krill + fish oil + high-dose astaxanthin without reading overlap.

Krill oil

Phospholipid omega-3

Fatty fish first. Disclose krill milligrams and EPA + DHA per softgel. Krill phospholipid form is not fish oil triglyceride and not algae oil. Label astaxanthin is disclosed; it is not standalone astaxanthin. Seafood allergy and anticoagulants are hard stops. Four live lanes below. Do not stack all four. Outlive: brain — meals first, then B12 and fish oil.

Astaxanthin

Standalone carotenoid

Haematococcus pluvialis algae extract, milligrams named. Not krill oil. Not a sunscreen or dermatology protocol. Krill overlap caution applies. Four live lanes below. Do not stack all four.

Live picks

Krill oil shortlist

NOW 500 mg modest, MegaRed 500 mg grocery, Sports Research Superba2 1000 mg, NOW 1000 mg double-strength caution. Disclose EPA + DHA. Not a BP clinic.

Common myths

Specialty is not a shortcut.

NMN replaces sleep and food?

No. Basics first. Specialty capsules are optional layers, not a lifestyle substitute.

Nattokinase treats clots?

CytoDaily will not claim that. Circulation folklore stays on seller pages and clinical care stays with physicians.

Nitric oxide bottles extend mitochondrial lifespan?

Endogenous NO is a signaling gas. This aisle names citrulline or nitrate, not a slogan. Mechanism folklore belongs on Outlive.

Creatine belongs here?

No. Muscle work substrate stays with Fuel creatine, not the longevity shelf.

Krill beats fish oil?

CytoDaily does not sell superiority claims. Krill is phospholipid omega-3; fish oil triglyceride and algae oil are different forms. Fatty fish is still food first.

Krill plus astaxanthin pills?

Krill labels already disclose astaxanthin. Standalone astaxanthin is a separate class — do not stack blindly.

Fisetin is a senolytic protocol?

CytoDaily names milligrams. It does not shortlist intermittent high-dose senolytic schedules. Strawberries remain food, not a dose.

How We Choose

Form before longevity folklore.

Basics first

We assume Minerals, Vitamins, and Fuel patterns before shortlisting specialty stacks.

Form clarity

Compound name, dose units, and serving must be readable before any affiliate link.

Caution honesty

Interaction and clinical cautions appear in plain language — especially nattokinase.

No miracle claims

“Reverse aging,” cure language, and disease treatment stay off CytoDaily copy.

Cover the plate.
Then consider specialty.

NMN, nattokinase, CoQ10, krill oil, astaxanthin, fish oil TG, fisetin, and the rest of the specialty shortlists are live. There is no class named Nitric Oxide.
