Not all NADH nutritional supplements are equal. It is said, "imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but that is not true when it effects your health." The market for NADH is increasing rapidly. Watch out for ineffective NADH imitations. Co-E1 is the only stabilized, absorbable, patented oral form of NADH available. As more and more consumers discover the therapeutic benefits of NADH -- drug and vitamin supplement companies are creating their own NADH formulations.

Dr. Birkmayer's company Menuco Corp., tested every NADH product found on the market (11 of them, as of the late 1997). They tested liquid, sublingual (under the tongue), and oral forms of NADH. The results:

• none of the products were pure NADH ! ! !

As a matter of fact, most of the products did not even contain a trace of NADH! Of all the products tested, the best of the bunch (from a very well known vitamin supplement company) contained only 8% of the potency indicated on the label. It is very difficult (near impossible) to successfully manufacturer NADH tablets. Dr. Birkmayer's holds world wide patents for successfully manufacturing NADH tablets. His product is called Co-E1®.

Co-E1® - The stable oral NADH formulation
You might see lower priced supplements that claim to be NADH, but don’t be deceived. Only one brand of NADH nutritional supplements, Co-E1® has the patented formulation which allows absorption by the body. NADH in its purified form is very sensitive to humidity, temperature, light and acid conditions (like saliva.)

The formulation of the NADH tablet is of critical importance. Not only for the tablet to contain NADH, but also for NADH to be successfully absorbed by the body.

After realizing the potential of NADH in the 80s, but unable to administer it, Drs. Walther and Georg Birkmayer, MD, Ph.D. developed, and patented, the only stable and absorbable form of NADH tablets. This patented product, Co-E1® (trademark) is the only NADH supplement that has been proven to cross the blood brain barrier.

In February 1995, the first and only stabilized NADH became available in the US as a nutritional supplement. This patented stabilized tablet form of NADH is marketed by Menuco Corp., under the brand name of Co-E1®. Each box of 30 Co-E1® tablets, 5mg each blister packed to insure quality.
