Why Sucralose Is Used in NAD+ Dissolvable Strips

Sucralose is a non-caloric sweetener used specifically to improve the taste and usability of NAD+ dissolvable buccal strips. Because NAD+ is delivered through the mouth rather than swallowed, flavor plays a direct role in how long the strip stays in place and how effectively it dissolves. In products like Recharge NAD+ Buccal Strips, sucralose is included in small, controlled amounts to support a clean taste profile without interfering with absorption, stability, or cellular energy pathways.

This article explains what sucralose is, why it’s used in oral strips, and how it supports effective NAD+ delivery without adding sugar or calories.

What Is Sucralose?

Sucralose is a non-caloric sweetener derived from sugar but modified so the body does not metabolize it as glucose. Because of this, it provides sweetness without raising blood sugar or adding calories.

It is widely used in:

• dietary supplements
• oral dissolving films
• chewables and lozenges
• beverages
• pharmaceutical formulations

In dissolvable strips, sucralose is used in extremely small amounts — just enough to balance flavor.

Why Taste Matters in NAD+ Buccal Strips

Unlike capsules that are swallowed, buccal strips remain in the mouth for 30–60 seconds. During this time:

• the strip hydrates
• active ingredients activate
• absorption begins through the cheek lining

If the taste is unpleasant, users may:

• remove the strip early
• move it excessively
• fail to let it fully dissolve

This reduces absorption efficiency. Sucralose solves this problem by improving palatability while keeping the formulation clean.

How Sucralose Supports NAD+ Delivery

1. Improves User Compliance

NAD+ has a naturally bitter, neutral, or metallic taste.
Sucralose helps:

• neutralize bitterness
• create a mild sweetness
• improve overall mouthfeel

This encourages users to keep the strip in place for the full dissolve time.

2. Does Not Interfere With Buccal Absorption

Unlike sugars, sucralose:

• does not ferment in the mouth
• does not create residue
• does not interfere with mucosal absorption
• does not slow dissolution

This makes it suitable for buccal delivery systems where absorption efficiency matters.

3. Supports a Clean, Low-Calorie Formula

Because sucralose is used in micro-amounts:

• no sugar is added
• no calories are introduced
• no glycemic impact occurs

This aligns with users who choose NAD+ for metabolic, energy, and longevity-focused reasons.

4. Helps Balance Tart and Acidic Ingredients

Recharge NAD+ Buccal Strips also contain DL-Malic Acid and Citric Acid, which contribute a mild tartness.

Sucralose:

• balances acidity
• smooths the flavor profile
• prevents sharp or sour aftertaste

This creates a clean, refreshing dissolve experience.

Why Sucralose Works Better in Buccal Strips Than Sugar

For oral dissolving formats, precision matters more than bulk sweetness.

The Role of Sucralose in Recharge NAD+ Buccal Strips

Recharge NAD+ uses sucralose to:

✓ Improve taste without sugar

Supports daily use without metabolic concerns.

✓ Encourage full dissolve time

Which supports consistent NAD+ absorption.

✓ Maintain clean-label formulation

Sweetness without unnecessary fillers.

✓ Complement other functional ingredients

Works alongside DL-Malic Acid, Lemon Essential Oil, and Vegetable Glycerin.

The result is a strip that dissolves smoothly, tastes clean, and delivers NAD+ efficiently.

Is Sucralose Safe in Dissolvable Strips?

Sucralose has been widely studied and is commonly used in supplements and oral products. In dissolvable strips, the amount used is extremely small — far below daily intake limits.

It is considered suitable for:

• low-sugar lifestyles
• calorie-conscious users
• individuals avoiding glucose spikes

As with any ingredient, moderation and proper formulation matter, which is why sucralose is used sparingly.

Final Thoughts

Sucralose plays a focused and functional role in NAD+ dissolvable strips by improving taste, comfort, and overall user experience. In a buccal delivery system, where the strip must remain in the mouth long enough to dissolve fully, this matters more than it does in traditional capsules. By supporting consistent use without adding sugar or calories, sucralose helps ensure that NAD+ delivery remains smooth, efficient, and reliable, reinforcing the effectiveness of Recharge NAD+ Buccal Strips as a modern oral supplement format.

In Recharge NAD+ Buccal Strips, sucralose helps transform a potent but sensitive ingredient into a smooth, enjoyable daily supplement, making the delivery system both effective and user-friendly.
