A REIT must distribute 90% of its profit to shareholders. Therefore, REITs are literally passing their rents to shareholders after keeping a small portion for management and maintenance fees (including interest!). The REIT yield has been outperforming bonds while underperforming stocks. In other words, REIT represents a higher risk than bonds but a lower risk than stocks. Equity REITs can be active in several markets: Apartments; Commercial centers; Healthcare centers; Office complexes. [2012] - Mike Heroux

Supplements are far, far less regulated than medicines, so if I do take a supplement, I look for a large manufacturer with a good reputation, seek highly pure molecules (more than 98% is a good guide), and look for "GMP" on the label, which means the product was made under "good manufacturing practice."

Cheaper still are niacin and nicotinamide, but they don't seem to raise NAD levels as NMN and NR do. [2019] - David A. Sinclair
