Nicotinamide Mononucleotide (NMN): Difference between revisions

# Precursor to NAD+: NMN is a direct precursor to NAD+, meaning it plays a critical role in producing this essential coenzyme. By supplementing with NMN, researchers hypothesize that we can boost NAD+ levels in the body.

# Potential Anti-Aging Properties: Preliminary studies, primarily in mice, suggest that NMN supplementation can confer various health benefits, such as improved energy metabolism, enhanced DNA repair, and potentially slowed aging processes.

# Safety and Dosage: While NMN shows promise, comprehensive studies on its long-term safety, effective dosage, and potential side effects in humans are ongoing.

# Natural Sources: NMN is found in several food sources, including broccoli, cabbage, cucumber, avocados, and edamame, albeit in small quantities.

# Research Frontier: NMN and its impact on longevity is an active area of research, with new findings and insights emerging regularly.
