Principle: NMN can be converted into NAD+ in the body, and NAD+ is an extremely important coenzyme in the process of cell energy metabolism.
It is involved in key metabolic reactions such as the tricarboxylic acid cycle, which is able to convert nutrients from food into a form of energy (ATP) that cells can use.
With the increase of age, the level of NAD + in the human body will gradually decline, resulting in a decrease in the efficiency of energy metabolism, and the supplement of NMN helps to improve the level of NAD +, thus enhancing the energy metabolism capacity of cells.
Performance: After supplementing with NMN, the body may feel more energetic, less tired, and may have improved exercise capacity and endurance, and be more energetic in daily activities.
At the cellular level: As we age, DNA damage accumulates inside cells, while the ability to repair DNA gradually declines, which is one of the important drivers of aging.
NAD + dependent proteins such as Sirtuins have functions of regulating cell survival, apoptosis and DNA repair. Supplementing NMN to increase the level of NAD + can activate these proteins, enhance the DNA repair ability of cells, reduce the accumulation of DNA damage, and maintain the normal function and structure of cells. Thereby delaying the aging process of cells.
Overall physiological function level: By improving the metabolism and function of cells, NMN has a certain positive impact on the function of various organs and systems in the body, and then delays the aging of the body as a whole, such as improving skin condition, strengthening muscle strength, and improving cognitive function.
Protection of nerve cells in the brain: Nerve cells in the brain have an extremely high demand for energy and nutrients, and are vulnerable to damage from factors such as oxidative stress.
By increasing the level of NAD +, NMN provides more energy support for nerve cells, while enhancing the antioxidant capacity of nerve cells, reducing the damage of free radicals to nerve cells, and protecting the structure and function of nerve cells.
Promotes the synthesis and release of neurotransmitters: Neurotransmitters are chemicals that transmit messages between nerve cells and are essential for cognitive function.
NMN may promote the synthesis and release of neurotransmitters such as acetylcholine by affecting related signaling pathways, thereby improving the brain's learning, memory and thinking abilities.
In animal experiments, mice supplemented with NMN performed significantly better on learning and memory tests than mice not supplemented with NMN.

Muscle cells require a lot of energy in the process of contraction and movement, and the transformation of NMN into NAD + can participate in the energy metabolism process of muscle cells, provide sufficient energy for muscle cells, and promote the growth and development of muscle cells.
Some studies have found that NMN may promote protein synthesis and proliferation and differentiation of muscle stem cells by activating signaling pathways such as AMPK, thereby increasing muscle mass and strength.
For the elderly or those with diseases such as muscle atrophy, supplementing with NMN may help improve muscle condition.
Regulation of the biological clock: The body's biological clock is regulated by a variety of factors, among which the NAD + dependent Sirtuins protein family plays an important role in the regulation of the biological clock.
Supplementation of NMN can increase the level of NAD +, which in turn regulates the activity of Sirtuins proteins, makes the rhythm of the biological clock more stable, and improves the sleep-wake cycle.

It can also improve the liver's ability to metabolize fatty acids and reduce the levels of blood lipid components such as triglycerides and cholesterol.
Lipoprotein is an important carrier of blood lipids, and NMN can affect the synthesis, secretion and metabolism of lipoproteins, such as increasing the level of high-density lipoprotein (HDL, that is, "good cholesterol") and reducing the level of low-density lipoprotein (LDL, that is, "bad cholesterol"), so as to improve the metabolic status of blood lipids.
Reduce oxidative stress in the liver: The liver is an important organ of metabolism in the body and is susceptible to various factors to produce oxidative stress.
The antioxidant effect of NMN can reduce the production of free radicals in liver cells, reduce the level of oxidative stress, and protect liver cells from oxidative damage.
Suppression of liver inflammation: Inflammation plays an important role in the occurrence and development of liver diseases.
NMN can regulate the function of immune cells in the liver, reduce the release of inflammatory factors, inhibit the occurrence and development of inflammatory response, and have a certain protective effect on liver diseases such as hepatitis and fatty liver.
