What’s NMN? NMN stands for Nicotinamide MonoNucleotide, a molecule naturally occurring in all life forms. At the molecular level, it is a ribo-nucleotide, which is a basic structural unit of the nucleic acid RNA. Structurally, the molecule is composed of a nicotinamide group, a ribose and a phosphate group (Figure 1). NMN is the direct precursor of the essential molecule nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) and is considered a key component to increase NAD+ levels in cells.   What is Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD+)? NAD+ is an essential coenzyme required for life and cellular functions. Enzymes are catalysts that make biochemical reactions possible. Coenzymes are  ‘helper’ molecules that enzymes need in order to function.  What Does NAD+ Do? NAD+ is the most abundant molecule in the body besides water, and without it, an organism would die. NAD+ is used by many proteins throughout the body, such as the sirtuins, which r...

With rampant   spike protein damage to DNA , not only from the vaccine but also from covid infections, optimum levels of NAD+ could be vital for your recovery. This article covers only the basics on NAD+, and cuts-to-the-chase on how to inexpensively supplement to increase levels. Now FB is censoring this post, which makes me believe all the more strongly that this content is true! Excerpts by  Dr. Joseph Mercola . Mercola’s ‘Story at-a-Glance’: NAD+  (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide)  is one of the most important biomolecules in your body . It’s involved in the conversion of food to energy, maintaining DNA integrity and ensuring proper cell function. Together, these functions help protect against or delay aging and disease. NAD levels dramatically decline with age, contributing to aging and chronic disease states.  NAD is used up by DNA repair  and enzymes involved in inflammation and immunity, such t...

NMN stands for nicotinamide mononucleotide, a molecule naturally occurring in all life forms. NMN is the direct precursor of the essential molecule nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) and is considered a key component to increase NAD+ levels in cells. NMN is a precursor to NAD+, or nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, meaning it becomes NAD+ through a series of chemical transformations. NAD+ is a critical found in every cell of your body, but levels of NAD+ naturally fall with age, making it — and NMN, as a result — crucial. However, NMN is like a large bed that movers are trying to get through a door: It doesn’t enter the cell easily. One way for NMN to enter the cell is for it to chemically transform into another molecule (called nicotinamide riboside, or NR) before it can enter the cell. NR has earned a name for itself as a highly efficient precursor to NAD+ and can enter the cell as is. NMN, meanwhile, sometimes becomes NR before entering the cell, where it chemically transf...
