Why is NMN called the modern elixir of Youth?

MNN stands for β-nicotinamide mononucleotide and is also known as the modern “elixir of youth”.

A number of authoritative studies have shown that NMN is involved in many physiological activities such as human metabolism and cell repair, and has great potential in delaying aging, improving mental state and sleep quality, and improving energy, physical strength, muscle strength and bone density.

The development process of NMN

During the development of NMN, many Nobel Prize winners in chemistry and medicine were born.

• NAD+ was first discovered in 1994 by British biochemist Sir Arthur Harden, who won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his discovery in 1929.
• In 1920, Oyler. Hans Von Euler-Chelpin, who discovered the key role of NMN in human metabolism, won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1929 for this discovery.
• In 1931, Otto. Otto Warburg, who first discovered the key role of NAD+ enzyme in human energy metabolism, subsequently awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine;

Subsequently, many Nobel Prize winners were born successively in the research direction of NMN, which laid an authoritative theoretical foundation for the subsequent development of NMN.

This also one of the main reasons why NMN’s anti-aging ability recognized by the academic community.

• In 2005, Professor Shinichiro Imai of the University of Washington in the United States published the research report on NMN for the first time, and publicly stated that NMN can increase the level of NAD+ in the human body.
• In 2011, Professor Shinichiro Imai of the University of Washington successfully increased the insulin content of diabetic mice by using NMN intervention therapy, showing the amazing therapeutic effect of NMN on diabetes.
• The year 2013, David Sinclair, the “father of anti-aging” at Harvard University, successfully improved a number of aging indicators of the tested mice by using NMN to intervention anti-aging mice, and successfully increased their life cycle by 1/3 ~ 1/2, proving the potential of NMN in anti-aging, and subsequently triggered a lot of capital pursuit;
• In 2016, Keio University in Japan and the University of Washington conducted the first human clinical trial, through the evaluation of various aging indicators, confirmed the safety and human effectiveness of NMN, and at this time NMN has been approved for production and sales in foreign countries.
• In 2017, Hiroshima University in Japan conducted another human trial on the safety of NMN long-term oral NMN, and finally showed positive and healthy research reports.

Is NMN secure? Is it safe to eat?

The safety of NMN believed to a topic of concern for many consumers, after all, the first Emperor of Qin in pursuit of “eternal life” to eat the so-called “immortal pill” made of toxic heavy metals, and finally even accelerated the speed of death.

In fact, NMN itself is a key substance in the human body and is also present in our daily food.

At present, the common NMN on the market is extracted from plants, so consumers do not have to worry about the safety of NMN, after all, the raw materials are derived from nature.

As mentioned in the table, edamame, broccoli, cucumber, cabbage, avocados, tomatoes and mushrooms are rich in trace amounts of NMN components, but the content is very small, take nutrient-rich avocados, only contains 0.25-1.88mg of NMN per 100g.

Calculate to maintain the normal needs of the human body, according to the weight of the weight of the conversion of the daily intake of 8mg of NMN, under normal circumstances each adult intake of 600-1000mg, if only eat these fruits and vegetables, may be everyone’s stomach will be directly burst.

What are the benefits of NMN to the human body?

As a precursor of NAD+, NMN’s main function is to promote the synthesis of NAD+ enzyme in the body, and this biological enzyme is closely related to cell metabolism and cell repair in the body, so it can play a certain anti-aging role.

NMN can improve women’s health indicators:

The anti-aging Research team at Doshisha University in Japan wrote in the journal Glycative stress Research:

Women supplementing NMN after menopause can effectively alleviate the problem of declining health indicators brought about by age, maintain their own metabolism and hormone health, and significantly improve the indicators of skin aging.

NMN can improve sleep quality and physical function in middle-aged and elderly people:

The University of Tsukuba, Japan, found through NMN human clinical trials that taking 250 mg/day for 12 weeks can effectively relieve the energy, physical strength and sleep quality of middle-aged and elderly people.

NMN reduces body weight, cholesterol, and blood pressure:

Professor David Sinclair, the “father of anti-aging” at Harvard University, in a clinical trial of overweight people over the age of 45, the intake of 2000mg of NMN in volunteers for 28 consecutive days, and finally succeeded in reducing the weight of overweight volunteers.

Experimental data showed that the overweight volunteers also had varying degrees of lower cholesterol and low blood pressure.

NMN can be involved in the treatment of retinal dysfunction caused by cardiovascular disease:

Japanese scientists published in the International Journal of molecular science that NMN can significantly increase the level of NAD+ in the retina, activate antioxidant genes, and reduce the activation of glial cells, so as to solve the problem of retinal dysfunction caused by cardiovascular disease.

NMN can activate longevity proteins and delay aging in mitochondrial cells:

The research team of Jilin University published in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences the research conclusion of exploring the anti-aging effect of NMN, NMN delays cell aging by activating the activity of longevity protein, and activates the continuous function of mitochondria.

Of course, the function of NMN is more than that, as a modern “elixir of youth”, NMN has also been recognized by many consumers.

So after reading the relevant information of NMN, do you also have the impulse to try it?
