AOD-9604 vs NAD+

Two compounds, mechanism by mechanism. Where they overlap, where they don't, and which vendors stock each.

§ 01

Mechanism

aod-9604

AOD-9604

HGH Fragment 176-191Anti-Obesity Drug 9604

Synthetic 16-amino-acid fragment of human growth hormone (residues 176–191). Selectively retains the lipolytic effect of HGH while reducing growth-related effects.

NAD+

Nicotinamide Adenine DinucleotideNAD

Coenzyme central to redox reactions and energy metabolism in every cell. Levels decline with age, which has driven a research interest in NAD+ supplementation as a longevity intervention.
