NMN

The potential beneficial functions of nicotinamide riboside are as follows:

  *   Improves NAD+ levels
  *   Reverse aging of blood vessels
  *   Aid growth of muscle
  *   Lower body fat
  *   Help improve insulin sensitivity
  *   Help repair DNA
  *   Increases energy levels

NMN is a precursor to Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD+), a critical coenzyme which is involved in thousands of cellular processes. Research has shown that NAD+ decreases with age and this decrease is involved in age related pathology and various diseases.

Studies have shown that NAD+ levels decrease with age. Studies in both mouse models and human subjects have demonstrated age-related decreases in circulating NAD+. NAD+ is involved in many cellular processes, including fatty acid oxidation, insulin secretion and lipid metabolism. Dysfunctions in these and other NAD+ dependent cellular functions are associated with frailty and pathophysiologies which become more common with advanced age.
