The research on NAD+ supplementation is generally in older people with cardiovascular health issues. It is generally considered safe, did increase cellular NAD+ levels, and potentially provides some minor health benefits to that group of people (see figure 2).
However, if you are a healthy person looking for fitness benefits, this will likely do nothing to improve your performance unless you are in the top 0.1% of athletes. Your body synthesizes NAD+ from tryptophan which you get from eating protein and it recycles NADH back to NAD+ during regular cellular respiration. You are many times more likely to run into VO2 max limitations (cardio), strength limitations, or diet limitations before NAD+ levels are an issue.
Just search "low NAD+ levels" and you'll see none of the top results are from any reputable health institute. The people leaving 5-star reviews on these products aren't doing their bloodwork and reporting the results, they just received a product and it was as advertised so they gave it 5 stars. Focus your money on other supplements instead.

The government doesn't provide any oversight and Amazon certainly isn't going to step into that role.
I do not have any studies to share (busy), but please do look it up and do your own research. If someone has good evidence for or against this claim, feel free to share. Not trying to scare everyone for no reason.

Well your first mistake is misspelling your supposed profession.
It's biophysicist, not biophysist.
