• History of alcoholism or drug abuse within 1 year prior to screening
• Use of medical marijuana or products containing cannabinoids in the 14 days prior to screening.
• Use of lipid lowering agents (including fish oil) unless the dose has been stable for greater than 90 days prior to screening.
• Use of natural health products containing nicotinamide riboside or niacin exceeding the RDA (16mg/day for males and 14mg/day for females) within 14 days prior to Screening. Potential participants will be asked to bring all supplements for evaluation at time of screening.
• History of or current diagnosis of any cancer (except for successfully treated basal or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin) diagnosed less than 5 years prior to screening. Volunteers with cancer in full remission and more than 5 years after diagnosis are acceptable.
• Has participated in any clinical trial with an investigational medicinal product within the past two months prior to the first dose in the current study
