In general, plants own very competent enzymatic [catalase (CAT), monodehydroascorbate reductase (MDHAR), superoxide dismutase (SOD), ascorbate peroxidase (APX), glutathione reductase (GR), dehydroascorbate reductase (DHAR), guaiacol peroxidase (GPX)] and non-enzymatic [glutathione (GSH), ascorbic acid (AsA), carotenoids, alkaloids, phenolic compounds as well as non-proteinaceous amino acids] antioxidative defensive systems which act in collaboration to regulate the problems of unrestrained oxidation and ultimately shield the plant cells from oxidants injury by scavenging these toxic ROS [11]

They are a clinically established treatment for B12 deficiency
One study states, A wealth of evidence now demonstrates that a decline in cellular nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is a feature of aging. So, going in the other direction, by boosting NAD+ in your body, our goal is to slow this aging process by providing your cells the resources they need to regenerate, rebuild, and maintain optimal health
