Niagen®, the proprietary ingredient in Tru Niagen®, is the world’s most efficient, patent protected NAD+ precursor on the market, particularly over NMN, and is one of the most promising ingredients to have entered the healthy aging supplement space. Supplementation with Niagen® is backed by 20 published and peer-reviewed clinical trials, over 200 published scientific studies and over 30 owned and licensed patents. ChromaDex continues to lead the industry in NAD+ research, with the ChromaDex External Research Program (CERPTM) achieving over 250 material transfer agreements (MTAs) featuring Niagen® and other proprietary ingredients.
“On behalf of ChromaDex, we are deeply honored that Tru Niagen® received this award and thank Sinopharm Xingsha for helping to make it possible,” said Rob Fried, CEO of ChromaDex. “As a research-driven company with science at our core, this recognition reinforces our intention to become the leading provider of NAD+ boosting supplements in China and we look forward to executing the next phase of growth with Sinopharm Xingsha.”
As a large-scale professional exhibition of health nutrition and health care products in Asia, NHNE provides excellent brand promotion and product channel expansion services for high-quality enterprises in China and abroad and has become the preferred release platform for health products and a top event not to be missed by industry professionals.
Sinopharm Xingsha led the debut of Tru Niagen® at NHNE this year, and the brand’s industry-leading research through CERPTM, increased presence on cross-border e-commerce channels, and high engagement on several social media platforms in Mainland China garnered instant recognition by attendees and exhibitors alike. In addition to receiving this prestigious “Most Popular Brand of the Year Award”, Tru Niagen® had prime real estate in Sinopharm Xingsha’s 162 meter booth at the exhibition site and hosted a celebratory press conference featuring a video of ChromaDex CEO, Rob Fried.
“We are honored to bring such an excellent healthy-aging product to China,” said Pan Lei, General Manager of Sinopharm Xingsha.“As we all know, China has officially entered an aging society. In 2021, the number of people 60 and above in China reached 264 million accounting for 18.7% of the total population. A huge consumer group breeds huge market demand. Adhering to the original intention and mission of ‘caring for life and health’, Sinopharm Xingsha is always looking for high-quality products that can help people healthy aging, and Tru Niagen® is undoubtedly the best choice in this category.”
Tru Niagen® is currently available for sale to Chinese consumers on several cross-border online and marketplace platforms, primarily through T-mall, and JD, with future expansion being led by Sinopharm Xingsha.
