	Nicotinamide Mononucleotide (NMN) is a compound found naturally in the cells of our bodies and is integral to several cellular processes. It is closely related to [[Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD+)\|NAD+]], a vital coenzyme essential for a myriad of cellular functions, including energy metabolism, DNA repair, and cellular signaling. The levels of NAD+ are known to decline as we age, and this decline is associated with aging and various age-related diseases.		'''Nicotinamide Mononucleotide''' ('''NMN''' and '''β-NMN''') is a compound found naturally in the cells of our bodies and is integral to several cellular processes. It is closely related to [[Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD+)\|NAD+]], a vital coenzyme essential for a myriad of cellular functions, including energy metabolism, DNA repair, and cellular signaling. The levels of NAD+ are known to decline as we age, and this decline is associated with aging and various age-related diseases.

	NMN is a [[NAD+ Precursor\|direct precursor]] to NAD+, meaning it is crucial in the synthesis of this indispensable coenzyme. The hypothesis is that by supplementing with NMN, we can boost the levels of NAD+ in the body, potentially counteracting age-related cellular decline and improving overall health. Preliminary studies, mainly in mice, suggest that NMN supplementation could offer a range of health benefits, such as enhanced energy metabolism and improved DNA repair, indicating its potential role in slowing the aging processes.
