NMN has the effects and functions of increasing NAD+ levels, activating Sirtuins, and promoting metabolism.
Increasing NAD+ levels: NAD+ not only influences the activity of longevity proteins (Sirtuins) in vitro but also serves as a key substance for poly ADP-ribose polymerase (PARPs), a DNA repair enzyme. In 2017, Professor David Sinclair's team at Harvard Medical School discovered that NAD+ can repair DNA damage.
Activating Sirtuins: NMN can activate Sirtuin proteins, which are beneficial for heart health.
Promoting metabolism: As we age, the level of NMN in the body gradually decreases, leading to degenerative symptoms such as muscle deterioration, cognitive decline, skin pigmentation, and hair loss.
NMN can increase NAD+ levels and activate Sirtuin3, enhancing energy metabolism in hippocampal and liver cells, thereby alleviating symptoms of depression.
NMN can be used as an indicator to objectively reflect the degree of aging in the body. Supplementing NMN in groups showing signs of aging can effectively delay aging symptoms or restore a youthful state
