Lyssnade på Joe Rogans senaste podcast med David Sinclair som är "anti aging DR". Han pratar om nmn av vilket han tar 500mg av dagligen. Jag är lite intresserad av att köpa detta själv, det finns dock i olika former och säljs till mycket varierande priser.
Någon här som vet en bra källa att köpa ifrån i Sverige eller i Europa?
8 Benefits of NMN
Quite remarkably, this study showed that old mice could be made young, thin, and energetic again with NMN. Indeed, they convincingly showed that you could reverse aging with NMN. Below are the eight key findings of this study.
1. Lower body weight
In this study, mice fed low-dose NMN lost 4% of their body weight. Those fed high-dose NMN lost 9% of their body weight.
To translate these findings, a 9% weight loss in a 200 pound person would be the equivalent of losing 18 pounds. Even more remarkable was that even though the mice on NMN ate much more, they still lost weight!
2. Increased energy/better mitochondrial function
The mitochondria is the energy power plant of cells. In this study, mice given NMN were much more energetic and had better energy production from their mitochondria.
3. Less diabetes
Mice on NMN showed much better insulin sensitivity. Better insulin sensitivity means less diabetes. Even heavier mice on NMN showed better insulin sensitivity.
4. Lower cholesterol and triglycerides
Researchers found that NMN also dropped cholesterol and triglyceride levels. However, this drop was primarily seen in those mice on high-dose NMN.
5. Less activation of aging genes
As NMN and NAD both activate the SIRT1 longevity gene, these Washington University researchers observed marked activation of longevity genes and suppression of aging genes.
6. Improved eye sight
Researchers found that the retinas in mice functioned much better with NMN supplementation. Also, the older mice were even less likely to suffer from dry eyes.
7. Increased bone density and muscle
Mice treated with NMN also had stronger muscles and bones. Interestingly, the 513 genes that cause loss of muscle and bone density with aging were all suppressed with NMN in this study.
8. Better immune system function
Lastly, NMN treated mice showed better immune function. Better functioning of the immune system means less infections and and less cancer.
Alltså, år 2017 verkar det som att många trodde att man hittat botemedlet mot åldrande, även om det bara hade testats på möss så var många väldigt exhalterade över detta.
