There is a lot of talk about how two of the most promising supplements to slow down aging are nicotinamide riboside (NR) and nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN). NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is derived from NR and NMN. It follows that NAD+ is produced from NR and NMN. The molecule NAD+ is highly significant because it affects our cells in various ways. For example, it helps PARPs repair damaged DNA and allows sirtuins, enzymes that protect our DNA and control the epigenome, to function properly. In our cells, the amounts of NAD+ decrease with age. The following are linked to low NAD+ levels: (R, R) An accelerated aging process that raises the risk of type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome, fatty liver, and weight gain. Currently, no research has directly compared the lifespan and health effects of NMN and NR. Nonetheless, NMN is superior to NR in the opinion of numerous aging experts and researchers. They cite a variety… Read More
