Everybody ages, but no one knows exactly why. What we do know is that increased fatigue, weakened bones and ill health walk in lockstep with aging, as does chronic illness.
Age is the number one risk factor for many illnesses. Researchers are making progress in understanding and treating each of these ailments, in their understanding of the aging process itself, and in how people can help slow the aging process for better overall health.
A Closer Look at NMN (Nicotinamide Mononucleotide)
NMN (nicotinamide mononucleotide) is a well-known compound that supports health and promotes longevity. It can be quickly converted by your body into the coenzyme nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD or NAD+ when it is oxidized), which is found in every cell. As you age, however, levels of NAD naturally decline. Elevating those levels, especially as you get older, with an NMN anti-aging supplement, can help support healthy cells and a healthier you overall.
In addition to increasing levels of NAD+ in the body, NMN appears to have other positive effects on health, including the following:
-
Promoting longevity: NMN and longevity are linked because NMN helps your body’s cells maintain their ability to produce energy and maintain function. This reduces the cellular decline that normally occurs with age, which can help lessen the impact of aging on your body.
-
Boosting cognitive function: NMN appears to help you maintain cognitive function, or your brain’s ability to think and reason.
-
Reducing obesity: As you get older, you’re more likely to gain weight as metabolism slows. Because obese people have lower levels of NAD+, replenishing it with NMN may help reverse this and support a healthy body weight. Maintaining a healthy weight can also help reduce your risk of obesity-related illnesses.
-
Boosting energy: Because NMN helps decrease cellular decline, it may also boost energy.
Forms of NMN
NMN is usually taken in one of the following four ways:
-
Powder: You can mix the powder into a liquid such as water or allow it to dissolve under your tongue for the highest absorption.
-
Sustained-release tablets: These produce a slower release of NMN than powder.
- Like sustained-release NMN molecule supplements, capsules produce a slower release of NMN, which may elevate NMN levels for a longer period.
-
Lozenges: Lozenges let you absorb NMN under your tongue, for fast absorption.
Studies show that NMN appears to be safe for human use and has not been shown to cause any major side effects.
