What is NMN? You may not have heard of it but it offers exciting health benefits. NMN shows potential to support metabolic health and glucose balance, promote healthy energy levels and cellular repair, and help maintain insulin sensitivity. Introduced to our shelves 2021, Swanson NMN delivers the quality you trust and the potency you want. Each single-capsule serving of Swanson NMN provides 300 mg of 99% pure nicotinamide mononucleotide.
NMN is a form of vitamin B3 that is a direct precursor to NAD+. NAD+ is essential for enzymatic activities that maintain cellular and tissue health. As levels of NAD+ naturally decline with age, other concerns arise, including cognitive and metabolic health. While supplemental NAD+ is not readily absorbed by the body, adding precursors such as NMN has been shown to increase NAD+ levels to promote healthy aging.
One marker of aging called “telomere attrition” is of particular interest. As part of the normal aging process, telomeres—the end points of your chromosomes—gradually shorten until the point they can no longer effectively protect the chromosomes. This process can be accelerated by oxidative stress, lifestyle, and more. NAD+ appears to help maintain telomere integrity.1 Exciting research shows promising results, indicating that supplemental NMN may boost NAD+ to help the body protect these telomeres for healthier aging.2
Of note specifically for postmenopausal women is NMN’s demonstrated support for youthful-looking skin as well as heart, glucose, and metabolic health markers.3 For individuals who engage in regular fitness or training programs, studies show that supplementing with NMN encouraged endurance and performance.4 If you’d like to learn even more, head over to our blog: What is NMN?, medically reviewed by a primary care physician.

FAQ
Q: Is NMN safe to take?
A: Current research suggests NMN is generally well tolerated in healthy adults at studied dosages. However, because human studies are still limited, anyone considering NMN should consult with a healthcare professional, especially if pregnant, nursing, or managing a health condition.
Q: What’s the difference between NMN and NR?
A: Both NMN (nicotinamide mononucleotide) and NR (nicotinamide riboside) are precursors to NAD+. NR must first convert into NMN in the body before becoming NAD+, while NMN can enter the NAD+ pathway more directly.
Q: How Much NMN Should I Take?
A: Studies typically utilized 300 mg NMN per day for 8 weeks for healthy aging and cardiometabolic benefits. Studies focused on physical endurance and athletic performance utilized 600 mg per day.
