Is NMN Reverse Aging a real thing?
To answer this question we have to go through some Q’s and A’s relating to NMN itself
NMN treatment has a key element in an underlying mechanism for anti-aging reversal or declining of mitochondrial functions as per testing on mice.
No human testing has been done yet and therefore all information is as per testing phases only.
WHAT IS NMN?
Firstly, the letters NMN also known as NAMN or β-NMN is the abbreviation for Nicotinamide mononucleotide.
It is a derivative nucleotide of niacine, nicotinamide and ribose which any human can use as our enzymes can generate nicotinamide adenine
A key mechanism underlying the anti-aging action of NMN treatment is reversing the age-related decline in mitochondrial function dinucleotide (also known as NADH).
IS NMN SAFE FOR HUMAN USE?
There are at least trials published that NR is safe for human use but nothing on NMN itself.
But because of the careful analysis proving NR is safe for human consumption and the close relationship between it and NMN it is considered safe and well-tolerated for humans.
ARE THERE ANY BENEFITS IN USING NMN?
In mice trials in Imai’s lab shows that older mice that was given NMN Reverse Aging showed positive metabolism effects throughout the body especially positive in the following:
ACTIVITY LEVELS
IMMUNE FUNCTIONS
VISUAL REACTION AND FUNCTIONS
LIVER TOXICITY REMOVAL FUNCTIONS
A FLUCTUATION IN BODY WEIGHT
FUNCTIONALITY OF THE IMMUNE SYSTEM
SENSITIVITY TO INSULIN
TOTAL BODY BONE DENSITY INCREASE
THE FULL SKELETAL MUSCLE STRENGTHENING
WHAT FOODS WILL CONTAIN NMN?
Though a new study showed that water mixed with NMN and given to mice will show in the bloodstream in less than three minutes, but the foods that contain NMN naturally are:
AVOCADO
CUCUMBER
BROCCOLI
EDAMAME
CABBAGE
CAN YOU CONSUME BOTH NMN AND NR TOGETHER?
Because NR cellular permeation is simple, it is highly available in your normal diet and requires no intermediate conversion, the has been studies confirming it’s safety in human consumption but there have been no tests or trials relating to NMN human consumption.
This will, unfortunately, lead a very big No to this question.
So with this information in hand, we can safely say that at the moment there is no evidence to prove that NMN with make you ageless or even reverse the natural age process let alone safe for human consumption.
So under advisement of the lack of tests, we will say only that if you want to use it, in any way for whatever reason it will be at your own risk.
