This meta-review found that NMN improves muscle function, reduces insulin resistance, and lowers liver enzyme levels in middle-aged and elderly participants. Summary This meta-analysis of 9 randomized controlled trials with 412 participants evaluated the effects of NMN on muscle and liver function in middle-aged and elderly individuals. The study found that NMN significantly improved muscle […]

This study examined the effects of long-term NMN supplementation on lifespan, healthspan, and metabolic health in male and female mice. Effects of NMN on Lifespan and Healthspan in Aging Mice Mice were divided into two main groups based on sex and treatment: NMN group: Received NMN in drinking water (~550 mg/kg/day). Control group: Received regular […]
A recent study investigated the effects of NMN and NR on ovary health and function in middle-aged rats. “This study reveals that NMN alone or NR alone can rebalance mitochondrial dynamics by decreasing excessive fission in middle-aged rat ovaries, thus alleviating mitochondrial stress and correcting aging-induced folliculogenesis abnormalities.” This graph shows the number of healthy […]
This preprint investigated the neuroprotective effects of berberine pretreatment in a rat model of Parkinson’s disease.
Glycine is a non-essential amino acid that is nonetheless necessary for many health-promoting metabolic processes. It is an integral part of protiens made inside the body, a precursor for important biomolecules like glutathione and creatine, and acts as an inhibitory (calming) neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. Research strongly supports glycine’s potential to protect health […]
