NMN" SUPPLEMENTS HAVE NO SIDE EFFECTS! HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT ONE?

RECENTLY, NMN HAS BEEN ATTRACTING ATTENTION AS A "REJUVENATION DRUG. SOME OF YOU MAY NOT BE FAMILIAR WITH THIS INGREDIENT, AS ITS RESEARCH HAS BEEN RAPIDLY ACCELERATING IN RECENT YEARS. IN THIS ARTICLE, WE WILL DISCUSS THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS: "IS IT A SAFE INGREDIENT? ARE THERE ANY SIDE EFFECTS? HOW TO CHOOSE? AND OTHER QUESTIONS AND CONCERNS THAT KEEP POPPING UP, WE WILL USE THE DATA TO ANSWER THEM.

1. NMN HAS NO SIDE EFFECTS AND IS SAFE TO TAKE!

NMN IS SAFE WITH NO SIDE EFFECTS

Because NMN is a new ingredient, you may have concerns such as "Is it safe?" and "What about side effects?" NMN is a new ingredient, so you may have concerns about whether it is safe or not, or about side effects.
As it turns out, NMN has no side effects and can be safely ingested and applied to the skin.
At INFINIXX, we have conducted various tests and obtained data to ensure the safety of NMN.
Based on the data, we will show you why NMN can be safely ingested and applied to your skin.

1-1. ACUTE ORAL TOXICITY STUDIES AND CLINICAL TRIALS IN HUMANS DEMONSTRATE THE SAFETY OF NMN

To confirm the safety of NMN, INFINIXX conducted its own "acute toxicity test" and "human clinical study".
In the acute toxicity test, 2000 mg/kg of NMN was administered to mice, and no toxicity was observed. No abnormality was observed after 14 days of observation.
To further demonstrate the safety of NMN, a cumulative total of more than 22 clinical tests were conducted on humans, not mice, and no abnormality was observed here either.
From these results, it can be said that NMN is an ingredient that can be taken with peace of mind.

1-2. JOINT STUDY BETWEEN KEIO UNIVERSITY AND UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON ALSO CONCLUDES THAT NMN HAS NO SIDE EFFECTS.

A human clinical study conducted by Keio University and the University of Washington has also reported that NMN can be safely absorbed by our bodies.
This clinical study was conducted on 10 healthy men to determine if NMN can be safely administered to humans. The results were as follows

(1) Can be safely administered
(2) Metabolized in the body according to the dose administered

Also, at this time, there have been no reports of any side effects of any kind, either in humans or animals.

1-3. In the case of supplements, "Self-Affirmed GRAS" certified NMN formulations are safe.

GRAS CERTIFICATION, A SAFETY STANDARD FOR NMN SUPPLEMENTS

Self-Affirmed GRAS certification is a system in which toxicology experts in the U.S. objectively evaluate whether NMN is "safe to use in foods" according to the standards set by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
NMN raw materials that have obtained this "GRAS" certification can be said to be recognized as safe NMN for human consumption by the evaluation system of the United States, which is known as a major supplement country.

1-4. Choose skincare products that have undergone patch testing.

NMN-CONTAINING SERUMS SHOULD BE PATCH TESTED.

Many skincare products, including NMN serums, are designed to be safe and trouble-free for the skin, but if you want to use them with more peace of mind, you should choose those that have undergone a "patch test".
However, it is quite possible that abnormalities may occur depending on the user's constitution, physical condition, or the season, so it is important to test the product on an inconspicuous area such as the arm first.

2. THERE ARE THREE MAJOR WAYS TO SUPPLEMENT NMN

3 METHODS OF NMN INTAKE

We have told you about the rejuvenating effects of NMN and that it is safe and without side effects, but how can it be supplemented?
There are three main ways.

  1. supplement
  2. Skin care such as serum
  3. NMN INFUSION

The following are the characteristics of each of these three methods.

2-1. EASY AND EFFICIENT NMN SUPPLEMENT

NMN SUPPLEMENTS ARE AN EASY WAY TO CONSUME NMN

The current mainstream method of supplementing NMN is through supplements.
In addition to being easy to take, supplements are available from a variety of manufacturers, making it easy to choose the one that best suits your taste and budget.
However, it is necessary to examine supplements carefully when choosing one, as there are cases where low-priced supplements contain low amounts of NMN, fake or poor quality NMN raw materials, or in the worst cases, no NMN at all.

2-2. NMN-CONTAINING SERUMS AND OTHER SKIN CARE PRODUCTS ARE ALSO EFFECTIVE.

NMN-CONTAINING SERUMS ARE ALSO RECOMMENDED.

NMN has been shown to be effective when applied to the skin.
According to a joint research study conducted by Keio University and P&G Japan, when NMN solution was given to the stratum corneum side, the amount of NMN in skin cells increased approximately 100-fold, and the amount of NAD+ also increased 4-fold. This means that NMN serums and other skin care products are fully potent.

When choosing skincare products containing NMN, you should also pay attention to ingredients other than NMN.
It is a good idea to choose skincare products made with high-quality ingredients that bring out the effects of NMN, such as human stem cell extracts, growth factors, and aquaporins.

2-3. RECOMMENDED FOR THE PARTICULAR PERSON! NMN INFUSION AT CLINICS, ETC.

NMN INFUSION IS RECOMMENDED FOR THOSE WHO WANT TO FEEL THE EFFECTS QUICKLY.

In addition to NMN supplements and NMN serums for home care, NMN infusion at clinics is also supported, especially by celebrities and those with a strong sense of beauty.
In general, IV infusion is absorbed more quickly and efficiently than supplements, so it is recommended for those who want to feel the effects of NMN quickly and who are able to regularly visit a clinic.

3. HOW TO CHOOSE NMN PRODUCTS

WHAT ARE THE KEY POINTS TO CONSIDER WHEN CHOOSING NMN SUPPLEMENTS AND NMN SERUMS?

The market for NMN products is now a mixed bag, ranging from expensive to low-priced products. In general, it is safe to assume that the quality of the product is proportional to its selling price.
So, what exactly should we pay attention to when selecting NMN products?
Let us tell you the key points.

3-1. USING DOMESTICALLY PRODUCED NMN AND DISCLOSING RAW MATERIAL DATA

NMN is currently flooded with imitations in many Asian countries due to its scarcity.
One of the criteria for selecting a high-quality NMN is that it is "domestically produced.
Another criterion is whether the product has undergone a "raw material authenticity test" and discloses this information. The fact that the product has passed this test is the best proof that it is a genuine NMN.
Purity is also important, and you should choose the purest one possible.
To further assure safety, "radiation tests" and "a system that allows the user to determine authenticity at a glance" are also important points to consider when selecting NMN.

3-2. HIGH EFFICIENCY OF NMN ABSORPTION BY PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGY

Another key factor in selecting NMN products is whether or not they have proprietary technologies and whether or not they have increased absorption efficiency.
Although NMN products are becoming more popular, genuine quality NMN raw materials are still precious and expensive. Therefore, the key is whether the product has a proprietary technology that allows it to be efficiently absorbed into the body and to be more effective when applied to the skin.

In the "body site absorption test" conducted by INFINIXX, the absorption efficiency of NMN in the stomach, sublingual region, and intestines was examined. As a result, a six-fold increase in efficiency was confirmed in the intestine when stomach absorption was used as the standard.
Based on this, it is recommended that NMN products be selected based on the following criteria: if they are supplements, they should be equipped with unique technology for intestinal absorption and long-lasting effect, and if they are skin care products, they should be rich in supportive ingredients.

3-3. MANUFACTURED IN GMP AND ISO CERTIFIED PLANTS

No matter how high the quality of NMN is, it is meaningless without a good environment for manufacturing supplements and skin care products.
When selecting NMN products, choose those that have "GMP certification" or "ISO certification" on the package.
GMP certification is a system that requires proper manufacturing and quality control Certification means that the product is safely made and maintained at a certain level of high quality in all processes, from receiving raw materials to manufacturing and shipping.
ISO certification is also a comprehensive management system that covers not only quality but also human resource training.
If NMN itself is of high quality and the manufacturing environment is also of good quality, it is considered a safe NMN product.

3-4. INFINIXX'S OWN NMN SELECTION CRITERIA "APPS™️

With the growing attention, many so-called counterfeit NMN products have started to appear on the market. Therefore, INFINIXX created the world's first standard for NMN quality, "APPS (™️).
APPS is an acronym for "A = Authenticity," "P = Purity," "S = Stability (quality stability)," and "S = S=Safety".
By selecting NMN products based on APPS, the system allows you to obtain 100% authentic quality and guaranteed safety.
