NMN STARTS IN THE 30S IF ANTI-AGING IS THE GOAL.

NMN IS ORIGINALLY PRODUCED BY THE BODY, BUT IT IS KNOWN TO DECREASE WITH AGE. FROM AN ANTI-AGING PERSPECTIVE, IT IS IDEAL TO START TAKING NMN IN ONE'S THIRTIES. HOWEVER, THE MAXIMUM AGE OF A PERSON IS SAID TO BE 120 YEARS OLD, AND FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF KEEPING THE BODY AS HEALTHY AS POSSIBLE, IT CAN BE SAID THAT ONE CAN START AT ANY AGE, AND IN FACT, BENEFITS CAN BE EXPECTED.

TAKING NMN IN THE TEENS AND 20S DOES NOT PROVIDE SIGNIFICANT BENEFITS.

NMN IS NOT SO MUCH FELT WHEN TAKEN BY PEOPLE BETWEEN THE AGES OF 10 AND 30. THIS IS BECAUSE NMN IS FULLY PRODUCED IN THE BODY UNTIL AROUND AGE 30; START IN YOUR 30S WHEN NMN BEGINS TO DECREASE.

IF YOU ARE IN YOUR TEENS OR 20S AND SEEKING ANTI-AGING BENEFITS, IT IS IMPORTANT TO REVIEW YOUR SLEEP, DIET, EXERCISE, AND SKIN CARE. ON TOP OF THAT, USE NMN AS A SUPPORT ITEM.

EXAMPLES OF SIGNS OF BEGINNING NMN DRINKING, BY AGE

THERE IS NO AGE LIMIT FOR STARTING TO TAKE NMN. HERE ARE SOME SIGNS OF WHEN TO START TAKING NMN FOR EACH AGE GROUP.

Age signs are becoming more noticeable in the 30s.

The thirties is the time when people begin to suffer from wrinkles. As hyaluronic acid, ceramide, collagen, and other components that are the source of skin elasticity and moisture decrease, the skin becomes wrinkled due to skin wrinkling and fat drooping.

SINCE MANY PEOPLE SUFFER FROM WRINKLES AS A SIGN OF AGE, THIS IS THE PERFECT TIME TO START TAKING NMN.

40s suffering from aging signs signs

The most effective results are felt in one's 40s, and even more so in one's late 40s, when one begins to suffer not only from wrinkles but also from sagging. Sagging is caused not only by a decrease in collagen, but also by a decrease in facial muscle strength. Sagging can also cause the skin to wrinkle, resulting in deep lines and wrinkles.

IN ADDITION TO ANTI-AGING WITH NMN, IT IS IMPORTANT TO REVIEW SLEEP, DIET, EXERCISE, AND SKIN CARE TO AVOID INCREASING AGE SIGNS AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.

50s who want to look younger than their actual age.

SOME PEOPLE IN THEIR 50S MAY HAVE A STRONG DESIRE TO SLOW THE AGING PROCESS WITHOUT INCREASING WRINKLES AND SAGGING AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE. IN SUCH CASES, THIS IS A GOOD TIME TO START NMN. BY REVIEWING YOUR SLEEP, DIET, EXERCISE, AND SKIN CARE, YOU MAY BE ABLE TO REDUCE THE INCREASE IN AGE SIGNS.

WHAT IS NMN IN THE FIRST PLACE?

NMN stands for "Nicotinamide MoNoncleotide," a substance similar to a vitamin. It plays an important role in maintaining a youthful body.

WHEN NMN IS ABSORBED INTO THE BODY, IT IS CONVERTED INTO A COENZYME CALLED NAD+, WHICH PLAYS AN IMPORTANT ROLE IN GENERATING ENERGY FROM CARBOHYDRATES, SO NMN INTAKE ULTIMATELY LEADS TO ANTI-AGING BY INCREASING CARBOHYDRATE METABOLISM.

It is also said that anti-aging effects are also seen when the sirtuin gene, a gene that controls aging, is activated and the metabolism of carbohydrates and fats becomes more active.

THE FOLLOWING ANTI-AGING PHENOMENA WERE OBSERVED IN MICE THAT WERE FED NMN FOR ONE YEAR AND MICE THAT WERE NOT FED NMN FOR ONE YEAR.

  • Retention of metabolic functions
  • Retention of activity
  • No genetic changes in fat, liver, etc. due to aging
  • No decrease in retinal function of the eye due to aging
  • No decline in immune cell function due to aging
  • Maintenance of insulin sensitivity

THERE HAVE ALSO BEEN REPORTS OF RECOVERY OF COGNITIVE FUNCTION AND RECOVERY OF THE FUNCTION OF THE HIPPOCAMPUS, WHICH CONTROLS MEMORY. ALTHOUGH HUMAN TRIALS ARE IN THE PROCESS OF BEING CONDUCTED ON A DAILY BASIS, NMN IS ATTRACTING A GREAT DEAL OF ATTENTION BECAUSE OF ITS POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE SIMILAR EFFECTS.

Should the intake vary with age?

SINCE THE AMOUNT OF NMN PRODUCED VARIES WITH AGE, SOME MAY FEEL THAT EXTERNAL SUPPLEMENTATION SHOULD BE TAKEN AT DIFFERENT DOSES DEPENDING ON AGE.

Therefore, there is no need to change the intake for both 30s and 50s. There is a report that 250 mg per day for 10 weeks has shown a certain effect. However, the best dosage has not yet been determined, since the dosage varies depending on the clinical trial, such as 100-200 mg or 1,000 mg, but it is known that a daily dosage of 150-300 mg is effective for a person of average Japanese physique.

HOW OLD SHOULD I CONTINUE TAKING NMN?

Since NMN is taken for anti-aging purposes, it does not matter how old you are. However, it is important to continue it without difficulty because of the ongoing cost. Also, if a supplement is difficult to take, it may be painful to continue daily, or difficult to continue when swallowing function declines.
Check the cost and ease of taking NMN supplements and choose NMN supplements that can be taken on an ongoing basis. As you age, your risk of disease increases and you may have to take a variety of medications. In such cases, be sure to check with your doctor or pharmacist to ensure that there are no problems with taking NMN.

NMN SHOULD START TAKING IT IN THEIR 30S.

ALTHOUGH IT IS BEST TO START TAKING NMN WHEN YOU ARE YOUNG, IT IS ALSO EFFECTIVE ENOUGH TO START TAKING IT WHEN YOU ARE OLDER. A GOOD RULE OF THUMB IS TO START TAKING NMN WHEN YOU ARE IN YOUR 30S, WHEN YOU START NOTICING SIGNS OF AGE.

NMN IS NOT AN ANTI-AGING SUPPLEMENT WITH UNIVERSAL NUTRIENTS AND REQUIRES ATTENTION TO HEALTH AND BEAUTY, MAINLY THROUGH SLEEP, DIET, AND EXERCISE. START NMN SUPPLEMENTATION WITH THE RIGHT KNOWLEDGE.
