NMN, nicotinamide mononucleotide, has been a super star in anti-aging field in these years, and its popularity is still rising during more and more people. In 2020, NMN was one the best selling anti-aging ingredients on the market.
Various NMN dietary supplements are advertised to be helpful for delaying aging, but you must be careful to choose the right products, because not all NMN produts have effective anti-aging properties.
Actually, NMN has two types of isomers, α-NMN and β-NMN. Only beta nicotinamide mononucleotide can be competent for the job, and beta NMN will be biosynthesized into NAD+ to provide energy to our cells and help DNA repair. While α-NMN does not have the same biological activity, and it will not be converted to NAD+ or be absorbed by our body.
When you buy NMN dietary supplements, check the ingredients and to see if it is beta NMN.
