Thats for this video! Great info i just watched the joe rogan one and found this video. What is your take on hubners silica gel? Thank you!!
Hi, thanks for the video. If you are comfortable sharing, did this supplement have impact on your hormones
Can you update us on the precise longevity supplementation you are currently on, and its dosage? Do you take NMN, TMG and?
Amazing channel and great video!
Really appreciated the authenticity in this review. I just ordered some and looking forward to it.
Jeff, thank you for the nice comment. I really hope you have great results!
Hey, your review of NR is very convincing. I've been taking resveratrol for years. I realized early on that this was a special compound. I like the fact that Thorne has this along with quercetin and TMG, all in one capsule. Ordered some just now!!
I too have hypothyroidism and suspect hashimoto.. I appreciate you sharing as I’ve ordered some NAD/NR and b complex and saw it explained TMG should be taken together. I want to do this right and plan to do small amounts like you did at first. I’ve been excited because I am also fatigued and felt something is missing in my line of supplements. Please advise on anything that may help. Thank you!
I have taken NR for four years, and upped my dose to 900 mg about two years ago. I am 72 and feel about 45. I haven't been sick from anything, and my skin is now smooth rather than rough as it has been on my elbows and knees.
That’s amazing!! I’m a big believer in this stuff. I just received my first NMN today. I’m 30 now, and already have less hair on my head than I did 4 yea ago. I hope I get to live as old as you and then some! God bless!
What branch of NMN do you use?
I would agree! Feel like I’m starting to look younger. Muscle tone is improving after increasing my dose from 300MGS to 500 MGS of NMN.
@@alexanderbailey8914 I’m at 1 gram a day NMN and Trans Resveratrol
Hi where do you buy your nmn from ?
Thanks for your video. I'm currently taking NMN but will try NR when this course is done.
I realize it's kinda off topic but do anyone know a good site to watch newly released tv shows online ?
Once again...here from Claudia Glow’s channel. Loving your content ❤️❤️❤️
Tamara, thank you so much! So happy you stopped by. These supplements are pretty amazing. I am so glad Claudia did this video today as I think these supplements can be life-changing! :) Also, if you have a minute, you may want to look up David Sinclair on youtube - he is fascinating and leading the way in this field of longevity.
Most of the more severe illnesses happen to people by surprise, unexpectantly, impacting first in the brain, then in the corresponding organ which that part of the brain controls. The end of WWI had absolutely everything to do with the Flu and lung TB outbreak that occurred killing millions. In nature, the biological conflict linked with a territorial fear (just what it means-a fear in your territory, your home, your community, etc.) is a widening of the bronchia (tissue loss). Your body attempts to widen your bronchia in order to allow more air into your lungs to give you more strength and energy to fight to keep your territory safe. Stay with me.......The biological conflict linked with a death fright impacts the lungs. The lungs attempt to grow larger in order to allow more air in because breath equals life, as we all know. No breath equals death.
While you are in the fear or death fright conflict, you notice no symptoms of “disease”, except you have cold hands, cold feet, you can’t sleep, you awaken at 3 AM every night, you have little appetite. During the war, millions of people were in fear of the bombing of their homes and cities where the war was most active. Fearing for their lives, their loved ones in the war, their ability to survive. The food in the stores was sparse due to shortages. This lasted for 4 long years! The longer the conflict, the worse the healing phase. Within 2 weeks of the German Chancellor announcing the end of WWI, these millions of people ALL went into the healing phase all at the same time. It is during the healing phase that you experience symptoms of illness! What is the healing phase of the bronchia widening? Severe bronchitis, pneumonia. The body attempts to refill this lost tissue and you experience inflammation, fever, coughing, body aches, fatigue, etc. What is the healing phase of the extra lung tissue that grew? Decomposing of the tissue by TB bacteria and fungi. The symptoms of this healing phase are: severe coughing up of blood and tissue, fever, inflammation, severe mucous, body aches, fatigue. During this decomposing of the extra tissue (tumor), the body expels a lot of protein, and without replenishment, severe protein loss can result in death. Antibiotics did not exist yet. If TB bacteria does not exist in a person or they have been vaccinated against TB (big mistake), then the tumor will simply encapsulate and become dormant and not harm you. Who died during the Spanish Flu? Mainly the poor who could not afford to buy meat and proper nourishment, and the people who were directly impacted by the bombings and destruction of their homes.
Millions of people suffered fear and death frights during the fighting of WWI, and millions of people all went into healing at the end of it. Not everyone was affected because not everyone suffered the same way.
It’s not a “flu”, it’s not something you “catch”. It’s biological, meaningful, and unavoidable. One hundred years later, a Fear Campaign begins, using the media to spread it......
I still haven't taken any of this yet. Researching. Very close to my isolated testing. Your testimonial and the comments are excellent.
I just may try NR now before trying NMN based on your testimonial. Learning about both as precursors. I will eventually test out NAD straight, too, thru IV.
I hear the benefits of NMN with trans-resveratrol. I wonder if I could try NR with trans-resveratrol... Will research. I saw that Versa has a good NMN.
Wow, TMG, thanks. This is chock-full of value. Not rambling! Watching this for the second time.. Great content.
Thanks so much for this testimonial! Very informative :)
Thanks for this! You mentioned that the initial NR energy boost tapered off over time. Have you experimented at all with cycling?
I also started taking NR about the same time that you did. I had a massive boost in energy that lasted for a few weeks, then faded away. Since then, I've switched back and forth between NR and NMN, but I've not experienced that initial surge again. Recently, I started watching Dr. Brad Stanfield's channel. He did some research on different NMN brands, and found that a lot of them when tested actually had no NMN in them! Life is complicated, and it's hard to figure out what is really having an effect, but I think that I've had a better experience with NR than with NMN, but that could entirely be because my NR is from TRU Niagen (from the guy that initially found NR), and that the NMN brands that I've been taking all pretty much are crap. So that says little about the actual relative effectiveness of NR vs NMN. (Though it say a lot about the supplement business).
Part of what makes evaluation so difficult is that when I get more energy, I tend to spend it all exercising. Which makes me more tired the next day. But I feel that when I'm exercising, and coming into it rested, that the NR does still help. I think another part of being human that makes evaluation more difficult is the way that we reset our expectations to the new normal. Sure, I might have more energy now, but I'm exercising harder, and overall feel the same.
In any case, right now I'm taking niacin, NR, resveratrol, and TMG.
Thank you so much for sharing this. I can totally relate. Maybe your levels of NAD+ are increasing and you don't notice the surge of energy, but overall your body is doing better, working better, and you are exercising more. Sometimes it is hard to tell or even notice that you are still having an increase in energy from a supplement. But, once that energy level dips, then you notice. It is so difficult to figure out. :) I've heard that over-exercising isn't good either. I did that years and years ago and burnt myself out severely. I guess it's good to push yourself, but not over the top. Maybe it would help to lessen that a bit. Just a thought anyway. Also, I saw Dr. Brad's video as well. I like the Alive By Science products - really innovative, though I am biased. They have sublingual, liposomal and transdermal - ways to enhance the bioavailability of the ingredients into your bloodstream. :)
@@LifeDIY she's absolutely spot on here
So nmn is what is in the mitochondria that turns into nad. But heres the thing, nmn cant get into the mitochondria. It has to convert back into nr, go into the mitochondria, then convert back into nmn before converting into nad. So basically, if youre taking nr, your skipping a step in the chain of events. The nr can go into the mitochondria without converting into anything, and therefore is absorbed a little easier. That probably explains why nr works better for you.
@@carolallison9685 I found pure NAD+ supplement
@@LifeDIY maybe you should try NAD+
Hi Holly, very informative and interesting.
Great introduction to NR and NMN; very helpful.
Re: energy levels; purely anecdotal, but it seems from the comments on my channel that the be people who noticeably feel a boost in energy etc. are those who were either older or were more sedentary, this may also support the theory that a body really needs it.
I would be interested to know more about your reason for not buying from Infinite Age any more.
I agree, every time I upped my dosage of NMN I had increased appetite and disturbed sleep too :(
Hey Vince! So glad you watched. I hope people check out your channel as it's all about this topic and could be very helpful. Thanks for sharing that info about energy levels and comments people tend to make on your channel. For me, my lack of energy has been pretty up and down - possibly related to poor sleep and some other things. When I have energy I am as productive as possible. The NR has helped a lot with boosting the energy. When upping my dose though, I've never had poor sleep on it - kind of the opposite for me, though I've only taken 3 capsules at the most. I do notice the increase in appetite though. Also, if you ever feel like diving into InfiniteAgeCo, let me know. I am skeptical of them. I'll have to share that with you later. :)
@@LifeDIY Hi Holly, I will be doing a video about my sleep soon; I've managed to almost double the amount of deep sleep I get now, still gather the last bit of data. Yes, I will take a look at InfiniteAgeCo, please e-mail me any Info you have.
@@MyLongevityExperiment Looking forward to it!!!
Hi, thank you for the good video! Can you please tell me is good to take NMN when you have Hashimoto ?
I think it can be benefial for people with autoimmune issues. I think it is worth trying. I have Hashimotos too.
Always, wonderful explanations.. You're never rambling...What dose did you take...And what did you really feel with nmn? compared to NR?
I am super exited to watch this video
I absolutely love my NR and am so glad you introduced me to it
Thank you Claudia!!! :)
I have high levels of inflammation in my body which causes an extreme lack of energy. I’m 36 and have four children, so obviously, no bueno. I started taking alive by science NMN and I feel so much better!! I have a ton of energy!! I had never heard of any of these supplements until I stumbled upon your channel. Thank you so much for sharing.
Jenna, thank you so much for sharing this. You made my day! I am so happy to hear it is helping you! Do you mind emailing me? I would like to send you something! My email is holly at lifeanddiy.com
Hey Jenna how did u get to know that inflammation was the cause of your Fatigue ? Cus I am clueless here as to why I lack energy ... am almost ur age
I really respect your way of humbleness and caution along with willingness to question seemingly yourself. I greatly appreciate you sharing your experiences and what you know while looking for what other people may know...
Other than "feelings" is there any clinical data that shows the benefits?
To get the initial effects back you should follow what Chris Masterjohn says and take 1:1 ratio of TMG to replace the depleted methyl groups from the NR. Also, you should try taking benfotiamine which should synergize well. Also, you can try doing advanced tests for insulin resistance like HOMA-IR and 5 hour insulin and glucose challenge.
Hi 🙋🏻♀️ Holly, happy new year 💕♥️🌟! How are things going with the supplementation? I just watched a Claudia video using a Live by Science cream (sounds gorgeously luxurious!!!) so popped over here too.
Hi Olina! So glad you stopped by! I am still taking the supplements and it's going great. I am going to do an updated DNA age test soon to see if it's changed anything. :) I really hope you're doing well.💜
@@LifeDIY Did you do any updated DNA tests?
Also wondering, sounds like the main effect seems to be energy levels but it doesn't actually seem to change anything genetically / sustainably without the supplements. 🤔
What's the difference then from taking amphetamines / epinephrine / ritalin (ie. speed)/ coca based "supplements" / chemicals which will also elevate one's energy & focus & concentration? 🙄
Love your videos. Can you please share which brand you purchased. Thank you❤️
I have started taking NMN which I bought at Donotage. I had tried NMN and NR in the past and felt that I had a reaction to it. I convinced my mother to try it and she said she also felt she had a reaction to it. The first attempt was only 200 mg and the Donotage capsules are 1000 mg, so I didn't expect it to work for me. But, everything went OK with no reaction. Like you mentioned, I have noticed more energy. This just seems impossible. I have been embarrassed about my general clutter, and noticed that I just started organizing things automatically. BTW I have taken a lot of niacin, because I read a book by Abram Hoffer about niacin. I used it for pain relief because of rheumatoid arthritis. I did feel this worked too. My last blood tests for a routine physical were surprising, with my lipid profile being stellar. The tests before that weren't stellar, for sure. So the only thing in supplement land that I can praise as much as NMN and niacin is broccoli sprouts. But that a food, not a supplement.
Thanks for sharing your experience and I hope you continue to have good results. Years back I read content by Abram Hoffer also and I believe it was about methylation. Have you heard of William Walsh and the book Nutrient Power? Thanks also for reminding me about Broccoli sprouts, as I haven't made them in quite a while. I need to do that!
@@LifeDIY I don't think I've read Nutrient Power. Broccoli sprouts good. :). I'm interested in reading Nutrient Power. Thanks.
Ashwagandha has been shown to help even out cortisol levels. Thanks for sharing your experience. I've been curious about this topic for some time.
Thanks a lot ,very usefull podcast 🙏❤️💃💊
This has been no rumbling!!! Every word helped me in my research! Thank you!!!
I'm with you. No matter whether it's placebo or actual effect from mechanics of the supplement, it doesn't matter! If it's placebo, sign me up with the major energy boost! Sounds great!
Yes!!! David Sinclair recently did a video and in part of it he explained that effect a s an endorphin boost. :)
I'm into anti-aging and have hypothyroidism and adrenal insufficiency, both medically diagnosed. I fight constant fatigue so I empathize. When I took DHEA with high hopes, I couldn't tolerate it because of my thyroid condition and I'm sure I needed it. Now I've discovered nmn, I'm going to try that and resveratrol and hope I can take it. I exercise, eat mostly vegetarian, I don't feel or look my condition or my age. I wonder how it would work if I also take collagen peptide. I can go really hard and if you can too, you doing well. You may want to see an endocrinologist though if you haven't already. Thanks.
Thanks Holly! Lovely name. :) I can relate to the past fatigue. The NMN has greatly helped me. I think my dietary issues being addressed also totally changed things for me as well. So many things play a part in our issues. If you don't know of him, there is an incredible doc and he's on youtube - th-cam.com/video/_oJWCTBaZlA/w-d-xo.html and he is an author as well. He helps people with a variety of complex health issues. I've learned a lot from him. :) Anyway, I really hope you do well with the NMN!
@@LifeDIY did You find an nmn You like then?
You look great. I have a question about the LDN and the NMN... can you talk about the difference in the 2 and what changes you attribute to each? I have done alot of research on LDN and am just starting it.. is the effect of the NMN mostly about more energy? thank you
Kristen, thank you for asking this. I am just about to record a video on this (a Q and A video on LDN) and I will have it uploaded within a few days! Your question inspired me to make the video! But to briefly answer about NMN, it does help me with energy and sleep. It also is great for overall health and longevity purposes. The LDN has also greatly helped with sleep as well, (energy too as a result) and has greatly helped with pain and my autoimmune disorder (it's made it seem as though I do not have one). I need to find a way to explain the differences better in the video as some benefits are similar and overlapping. :) I hope it goes well with the LDN that you are starting.
Thank you I truly appreciate your honesty. I need energy , and anti aging, what do I take what are all theses great meds . Like what are there names I’m just confused about the names thank you . Oh by the way I have great health thank you 🙏 ❤
Hello, thank you for sharing your experience. I started taking Alive By Science about 2 years ago. I felt the same, a ton of energy and youthfulness. I also took 500 mg of Resveratrol, which after a couple weeks... caused my blood sugar levels to be super high and didn’t feel right. Later, I had some labs done and have 1 of the 4 methyl groups affected. So, now I take Thorne Research (ResveraCel) once or twice a week and just started with Alive By Science - SC NMN capsules (TMG + zinc) intermittently between the ReveraCel. So far so good. The SC NMN capsules are a time release, which is great. Hope this all helps with my experience and helpful.
Your calendar age and energy age after resveratol?
What about TMG and Zinc ?
Started taking 100mg NR supplements 2 weeks ago, 1 pill per day, plus resveratrol. I have been running 5 minutes more than usual and I have not felt tired at all afterwards. My muscles feel stronger. I cannot notice anything with regards to my skin yet, but let's see what happens as time goes on. It may be placebo effect, but it's a hell of an effect!
Thanks for sharing that Eri. That is awesome to hear!
If you don't mind, how old are you ? I think it's very important.
Thanks for answer.
Greetings
@@karelmarx8899 Hi Karen, I'm 37. I have since stopped taking NR as I had some hormonal and gynecological issues and my doctor advised me to stay off NR for now just in case (not saying they are linked to NR, but she still recommended avoiding it for now). I am now taking liposomal glutathione, marine collagen and hyaluronic acid for a week once a month and this mix seems to be very helpful with my sport peformance, joints and skin.
@@erica2105
Thank you
Greetings from Slovenia
What brand?
Thank you for your authentic reviews! Very helpful!
You are so welcome!
It's funny that you're also such a strong responder. To me it also felt like, WOW. I mean, it wasn't even like my twenties.. more like my teens, or even my childhood.. Moments of intense joy, everything around you is vibrant, radiant. And then I thought, some people probably never had that at all.. And some people had it a lot more than I had. We live in terrific times that the bar can be raised for everyone.
I am also low energy. I was feeling so bad, I told my Dr. if this was the rest of my life I did not want to live. She did test and I was D deficient. The first day I took D3 I was zinging, my body ate it up. So I totally agree that we may get a reaction as our bodies gobble up a nutrient it has lacked.
Thank you so much for providing us your experience with NMN/NR. I would look for a good functional medicine doctor in your area to help you with your cortisol and thyroid function because they are intimately related. That being said, I am happy you had a very positive noticeable effect with the NMN/NR.
Hi Dr. Casey! Thank you for the comment. I do need a good functional medicine doc. There aren't any in my area, so I consult with one who is 8 hours south of where I live, but I think I need someone new (with my region of the state at least). I did the DUTCH complete test on my own & my functional doc looked at it - actually had very low cortisol. Although I have had great results with NMN, I still have issues with my thyroid. So, thank you for the reminder and advice. There just aren't many options by me. I can't even find a doctor nearby who will prescribe my NDT (natural thyroid medicine). Anyway, I just subscribed to your channel! Thank you for the comment! Have a great weekend.
@@LifeDIY man that sucks you don’t have anyone local. That is the downside to functional medicine, is that there are so few of us out there that it’s like mainly large metropolitan areas. I’m in miami for example. A good functional doc won’t just diagnose your adrenal deficiency or hashimotos, but will ask the deeper questions as to why you have this to begin with. Given your improvement with NMN, maybe a mitochondrial cause. That being said, in my experience usually not just one cause but causes. Anyways I hope you find someone who can help you put the pieces together. Good on you for researching and bio hacking yourself!
Interesting question I've also had grave disease hypothyroidism I'm wondering how this nicotinamide ribosom will affect the thyroid gland, I guess taken in small doses try it out should work best
Do you have hypomobility as it's all linked
Your video help me make decisions after all my research I am now on the NR bandwagon! Thank you for all that you do
Thank you for adding some clarity to this somewhat confusing topic and for sharing your experiences. Will be taking Thorne ResveraCel soon. Here is hoping for some good results!
I hope you have great results too!
So do you take nr and nmn together? Or separately? I want to add the nr in too ❤️
Lately I have just been taking NMN. Though I believe in NR as well. They both work similarly, but possibly help different parts of the body. If I were to take them both, I would probably take them together!
@@LifeDIY thankyou so much so def safe to take together? X
@@stargirltelevision from what I have heard, yes! If concerned, you could always take a little less of both. From my research, it seems good to raise NAD+ through multiple pathways!
I have had two little tias/ STROKES been on nmn right hand side a wee bit cold but I get through the day a bit tired.also on extra virgin olive oil and metformin. Yes it does help with life. Go for it !
Hi 👋🏻 products is great so where can I buy ? Pls give me the link
What resveratol do you take? Forgive me if you put the link on one of your videos and I somehow didn't see it. I did check out your other videos and they are as excellent! Thank you so much for all your information it's extremely helpful. There's so many different choices of these supplements to take so I am unsure which one to get the resveratrol😬. I got that MNM now that you suggested in your link. Thank you for that! XO
Please relax your face while presenting your topics.
A good video! For resveratrol (fat soluble chem compound), it's better to mix it with fat (extra virgin olive oil is preferred due to oleic acid). It also should be trans and micronized.
Thanks David! I remember David Sinclair mentioning this too. I need to look more into it.:)
I started on NMN just yesterday from a company called rev genetics in the US. I have a number of health issues, heart disease and angina and go through some very difficult days sometimes.
I'd been feeling dreadfual since Monday, my NMN arrived Tuseday and I took a double dose to start with then went to the single dose in the evening, and had a single dose this morning.
I continued to feel absolutely dreadful mentally but around 5pm I went out and did some shopping.
I didn't notice anything at first but the further I walked the more I realised I was speeding up, and on my way back from shopping I was racing down the road. My legs just seemed to want to work as fast as they could and with ease too, I haven't been able to walk like that in years.
I didn't expect results so quickly, it will be interesting to see where this leads.
I love your username CatMan. And, I am so sorry about the health problems. Chronic health issues are extremely difficult...I really hope you continue to have increased energy from the NMN. For some people it happens a bit right away and for others the results happen over time. I have a newer video here: th-cam.com/video/admkZ0AbqOE/w-d-xo.html sharing my story of health problems and my experience with actually taking NMN, if you want to check it out. Have you found any other supplements or medicine to help you at all, before the NMN?
@@LifeDIY Hi and thanks. My cats have saved my life on a number of occasions. I was taken by surprise at how 'eager' my legs were at wanting to walk today as I hadn't expected any results from the MNM for at least a week and I felt groggy all day, so had no reason to expect any effect.
But I usually struggle to walk and left home without even testing to see if I could walk normally, I adopted the walking style that avoids causing me to veer sideways but suddenly I felt my legs just wanting to do more and it was quite fun to be 'in action' again. In fact a friend shouted out to me along the way and commented on how fast and well I was walking.
I started a number of health foods and supplements designed to tackle heart disease but stopped after three days due to another episode of extreme tiredness, so thought I'd give them a rest until I was ready for them again, but then the NMN arrived from the US and I was eager to start on them. I hope this carry's on.
I will watch you new video now, thanks.
I LOVE my cats so much as well. :) It's nice to hear how you are doing with the NMN and I am so sorry for my late reply. I never get notified of new replies for some reason. I hope you keep me posted though!
@@LifeDIY Yes, notifications are a bit unreliable on YT. I meant to post an update today anyway. I've been on a low dose of 100mg per day and had simply amazing results but stopped them for three days as I found them a bit 'heavy' on the mind. But started again yesterday and was astonished this morning when I managed to do quite a bit of exercise without any indication of Angina, usually I have problems even at rest and even after taking the angina tablets. One of my biggest problems is mental effects, fogginess etc, and it doesn't help with that, but activity wise, I'm now walking at a fast speed like I used to 6 years ago, and find that the more I walk the faster my legs want to go! I'm still trying to work out the best way of taking it, I think the idea is to have a few days on and few days off. It's sill early days but I recommend everyone to try it.
My cats are my life ^..^ and they've saved it as well a few times when I've had a stroke in my sleep.
@@LifeDIY Just another quick update....I'm not quite sure how to put this.....I'm turning white. I'm from mixed parents, mother being white German, my skin is about 40 times lighter than before and I don't mean patchy like vitiligo. It's gradually getting lighter by the day.
Can I just say that your NAD levels at your age is still pretty high - it decreases rapidly with age. I started taking NMN, TMG and other anti ageing supplements I can afford. 4 years ago The company I use is a British company called DoNotAge it only produces pure products and explains each supplement and it’s benefits it has a group of scientific researchers who are on the cutting edge of this subject, you don’t sound as if you have looked into these things in an in-depth way. David Sinclair has written a book about NMN and the science of ageing and becoming ill, He says ageing is an illness and and we don’t need to have it. He believes in Health span, rather than lifespan although he thinks that age will be extended. My own experience of starting taking in NMN at 70 has drastically changed my life. I can go up ten flights of stairs never touching the hand rails without noticing it, not so before when I was noticing the tole age was having on my health and abilities. people of forty are huffing and puffing while I race ahead !!. Don’t be so uncertain find out about things, never buy things off Amazon most are fakes & the reviews are even more so. Go and look at Vince’s site my NMN experiment. He stared taking NMN 3 years ago and he roots out the fake sellers there is a recent review on the types of products sold on Amazon & Amazon itself is currently banning fake products. Hope you read this and it helps.
Thank you but I have tested them and they were very, very low. They are doing much better now though.
Vince who ??
@@gregl2249 I think they’re referring to Vince Cording
Breathtaking, so what was your experience? I took nmn 500mg and felt headaches and my face skin hurt so much after only 6 days intake.
I also buy nmn and resveratrol from do not age❤
What is the best way to take NADH? I was researching and a lot of people say you have to take it first thing in the morning on an empty stomach… They say this because some people were reporting feeling ill if they took it with food. I also think I have methylation issues so I take TMG with it… This is also suggested to take on an empty stomach… Any thoughts on this or do you have any experience with us?
On your description you put up the link to the update video. However when I click it, it's says its private.
You are so beautiful!!! I feel younger and have more energy just looking at your video. Thanks for the video, I can tell you are a good person, just by you talking. I only wish I were 40 years younger.
Such a nice comment. Thank you! I really appreciate it! 😊
Remember that show “all in the family“? Archie Bunker used to call people “Pinkos“. But I think he meant communist sympathizers.
Really interesting video! You talked about fatigue...do you feel that the NR & NMN has stabilized your energy levels much more now?
And do you feel a change now after almost 2 years of taking it compared to when you put out the video? (when you had tried it for 9 months)
Hi Emil, thank you! I definitely feel it has helped increase my energy levels. I am not sure about NR anymore, as I currently take NMN. I did get a huge energy boost from the NR that I was taking in the beginning and I am sort of convinced it was from the resveratrol or the combination of resveratrol with a NAD+ booster. I am super sensitive to resveratrol. It really amps up the energy for me. I am still taking NAD+ boosters (NMN specifically now) and I feel like my energy levels have stabilized or raised higher than they used to. And, I even feel like I don't need to take it everyday and I can take lesser amounts and still feel great. :)
@@LifeDIY Are you still taking the same brand NMN you shared in this video above? Or have you found a different one you like better? Thank you
@@LifeDIY Hey thanks for replying ... so NMN and NAD boosters are to combat ur fatigue episodes if I m not wrong is it ? But I think u also have some gut biome issues for which u got SIBO and other tests done ? I m not sure if u have gut issues ... if u do then have u found a solution ? And if gut issue is causing fatigue then doesn’t treatment of the gut solve fatigue issues on its own n do u still need NAD boosters ?
Hello! Thank you for this informative post! I’m a little confused, though and was wondering if you take NAD, NMN ( and NR? If so, couldn’t locate the NAD brand you’re taking. Would you mind sharing that, pls? It would be much appreciated. Thanks again! 🌷
Thanks Cheryl! Sorry for my late reply. Currently I am taking NMN from Alive By Science. lifeanddiy.com/ABSPureNMN
I've been taking NR precursor for a few years now. I feel good. Though I have been doing allot of research into Nuchido Time + supplement. Basically the company states that taking NAD+ precursors only work very minimally and don't actually fix the underlying cause of NAD diminishing with age. They say their supplement fixes the NAD factory and boosts levels far higher... thoughts???
Thanks for your video, it’s good to get an earnest review. You look the picture of health in the video so you are obviously doing something right!
Thank you so much, Brett!
I really appreciate the way you presented this and the quantities necessary. That's is something usually forgotten by most. Seems like decent amounts (a few grams a day) are necessary for nmn to kick in. Others also indicate taking it with fatty foods to help absorption (yogourt...).
Thanks so much for the nice comment. I have learned so much since I posted this video. I am going to do a major update video soon. You are right that sometimes a lot of NMN is necessary for it to really work. But, if you take a form that gets into the bloodstream better (liposomal), then you don't need to take so much. Also if you take too much NMN or NR, you can cause issues due to excess NAM. I've been taking liposomal NMN and also monitoring my NAD+ levels through bloodwork, and it's working well. I am going to do a video on that too. Thank you again for your comment!
@@hodlwise2470 Hi Hodi I had the same question and also wanted to know what’s the test to check NAD levels and also degree of methylation in the body? Waiting for her answers n video on this 😇
@@MsSilkyJuneja yeah, hopefully she'll answer. I can Google all of that but I'm doing other research lol. I'll wait to see what she says and verify it.
I probably won't take NMN, tho. If you do, check Dr. Sinclairs protocol, he takes with Resveratrol.
I prefer Carbon 60, C60. It's an amazing molecule and it's a very powerful antioxidant.
It actually inhibits SARS-CoV-2 C3LPro and RdRp/Nsp8 co-factor. The new Ivermectin copycat therapeutic Pfizer is coming out with only inhibits C3LPro, but Ivermectin also inhibits C3LPro and has a few other mechanisms of action as well, but both of those are prescription and C60 you can get without prescription 🙃
@@hodlwise2470 Oh wowww 😃That’s great information from you about C60 I’ll look into it , I didn’t know about that ..
What is ur hunch about NMN ? Lack of human case reasearch n studies ? I have gone through David Sinclair’s protocol.. and his suggestion regarding Micronised Resveratrol .. I am also watching MYNMNEXPERIMENT and Dr. Brad Stanfield for more information, I will make sure I gather all the important details before I consume a random molecule 🙂Thanks for the suggestion though . Before NMN I am thinking of buying the NR She’s mentioned from Thorne research, it’s a great brand and I am suffering from unexplained chronic fatigue in 30s so my goal is ENERGY first
@@MsSilkyJuneja there was a study published out of France in 2012 using C60 that increased lifespan of the rats by 90%. They generally live about 2-2.5 years and the rats lived to 5 years with C60. It was from a company called SES Research, Inc, based out of Texas. I take their C60+olive oil variant.
I have done pretty extensive research on C60 and it seems much safer than NMN. NMN sounds good, I'm still researching, but there is the propensity for it to increase risk of cancer in some people from what I've read.
I will probably try NMN at some point, though.
I take NAC daily and S-Acetyl L-Glutathione about 2x/week. NAC replenishes intracellular glutathione, and the Acetyl variant of glutathione is more readily absorbed by the body. So, on the days I take S-Acetyl L-Glutathione, I don't take NAC.
I'm also looking into Nattokinase and Serepeptase. So far I'm liking what I'm finding in the medical journals/research papers.
All of the aforementioned with exception to NMN have inhibitory activity against SARS-CoV-2.
I take melatonin as well, which is a powerful antioxidant and has been used to treat COVID patients as well, but in high doses (36-72mg taken 4x/day).
I take zinc + Quercetin and D3 with K2 (MK7) also, as well as a multivitamin with selenium and Resveratrol. All of these also have inhibitory, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory effects against SARS-CoV-2 and pretty much act as prophylaxis.
Been taking since Feb 2020 and never caught COVID, nor anyone in my family.
VitD acts as prophylaxis due to D3 causing viral infected cells to undergo apoptosis. 9/10 patients that have died from the RONA are deficient in VitD.
Also, selenium, melatonin, and L-Glutamine deficiencies also affects the outcome of COVID patients.
Check out Dr. Neel's high dose melatonin video on TH-cam.
Learned a lot about a variety of supplements that are beneficial for your health, and as a bonus they all are effective to one degree or another against SARS-CoV-2, so I revolve my supplement stack around that.
Hope this helps
So interesting. I’m low energy because of anemia. Changing my diet but considering this. Thank you for sharing will def be purchasing
No problem. :) Hope things improve with the anemia. That can be really difficult.
I think I am in love. Thank you for the wisdom.
I’ve been on the fence about trying this supplement for awhile because of how expensive it is. But you’ve convinced me to give it a try! Also you said the energy levels you first experienced with it have gone down since. So how are your energy levels taking it now?? Is it still better then before you started taking it?? Thankyou in advance 🤗🥰plus your channel is becoming one of my favorites!😁🥰
Thanks so much Rachel! Great question! Definitely still feel better, sleep better and still have more energy when taking it. :)
I had a very similar experience with increase in energy levels when I started taking NMM supplements as you had when you started the NR. It was quite pronounced, a really kind of clean, motivated energy. I’m not sure if I still feel like that, I think my baseline energy has improved a lot so I don’t notice the effect anymore. I have a much more pressured job that I never though I would keep up with before. I exercise most days. It’s definitely not a cure all… I’ve still had colds etc but I feel healthier at 43 than I did in a lot of my twenties to be honest! That’s probably down to a lot of other factors also.
Thank you so much for sharing this. I have the exact experience as well with a job I would not have been able to handle in the past. Baseline energy is so much better, though not always noticeable.
I took NMN and experienced high energy the next day. I don't experience that high energy 2 weeks in but still have more energy than usual and noticed am more motivated..Thumbs up!!!
I felt the same. It's the one supplement I've taken where it is obviously not placebo. Taking resverstrol it did increase gains at the gym and reflected on the scale, but the felt effect was within what I'd consider placebo effect.
@@LifeDIY I start a new job soon. I may try an NR or NMN fir the job. Plus, I may start my Master's degree, too, later this month. I am so curious if these precursors will help me retain knowledge. Cause in the past it's been difficult to get that schooling, book info, into my retention. Plus, I will see if that new info goes into my long-term retention.
@@ngantnier That is great. I hear that NMN & trans-resveratrol work synergistically.
Thanks for your information been taking for 3 months see same results did notice it stops the stimulant effect of coffee and has improved my asthma significantly. Your so young and beautiful can hardly think why you would need this .I appreciate your well spoken research and will subscribe. Thank you
I am going to be starting NMN as soon as it makes it to me in the mail! Super exciting!
How old are you. I can understand wanting to get ahead of the game, or, if you have health issues, but for someone as young, vital and lovely as you, I would think you would wish to take it slow and realize you have much time ahead to ease into this. I just began a program of NMN, Resverastrol, Querciten, and Apt???? whatever the hell it is. I am 73, have been a vegetarian and health conscious avoider of fast, processed, fat foods, since age of 23, and have had great luck with remaining healthy and vital. That has proven out for me. Now that the science has begun to show veracity in the slowing and reversing of age, I am, understandably intrigued, and am jumping on board as much for quality of life as I age, as I would be to live longer. I have little to lose by going for it. Thanks for your viewpoint and best wishes for a long and vital life.
Thanks so much, Clifford. That's great you recently started on NMN, Resveratrol, Quercetin and Apigenin? Those are the big ones. I am 39. Some people tend to start on these supplements around 40, though some people are younger. I was dealing with a lot of fatigue before I got on the supplements and so far they've helped with that a lot. I'm feeling pretty great, other than a shoulder issue. I too take Quercetin and NMN. If you ever want to chat with others who are on this journey, you can may want to join reddit and chat on there: www.reddit.com/r/NMN/ and Alive By Science has a subreddit too here: www.reddit.com/r/AlivebyScience/. It's nice to chat with others doing the same thing. I've been doing testing of my NAD+ levels and my biological age (epigenetic test called MyDNAge) and it seems the supplements are helping! :)
I've taken for first time 125mg NMN and taking about 50mg now every other day + 50 mg Niacin daily . Before this a month of Nicotinamide 250mg.
Searching led me to switch out as maybe issue with nicotinamide. Although felt improvements in memory, skin complexion with NE. This is the First time sustained energy release and feel vital as well as cognitive improvement niacin also seems to help with BP meaning a little less BP meds for me. I am on a busy night shift and it's doing wonders for mental stamina just feel good I'm my body. A caution earlier though I did have a racing pulse 1 hour after but I am bit sensitive to medicine that has calmed down drink plenty water. I will stay at this dose taking every other day and nmn every other day for some months. I feel that's alight for my system and may build to 125mg a day. Just have to know your own body.
What’s NE ? Sorry ur dosage is not clear ... what exactly are u taking ? 125 mg NMN and how much NE ? And when u said u took nicotinamide before this do u mean NR ?
Appreciate this video. I am 49 and just started taking NAD+ Cell regenerator by Life Extension. Feel good.
Just chanced upon your video... you gave very genuine & honest opinion in a natural way, just like listening to a very close friend sharing her experience. And you are very transparent as you don't hide something you are not sure, and even actually make note on your video to make sure viewer get the accurate message. Lastly, I'm grateful for your sharing and whatever information you've research to make it easier for us ... Million thanks!
Thank you so much. I really appreciate your comment and I am sorry my reply is so late. I will be sure to make notes to clarify things. :)
I'm 68 and have been taking a gram of NMN daily for almost four months. The results are fantastic. I have more energy than I have ever had, even when I was young. But what I have found is that to be really effective, the NMN has to be supplemented with exercise. It seems to give me a little more energy to exercise, and if I take advantage of that and do exercise, the energy multiplies, and keeps multiplying the more exercise I do, till I start craving exercise all the time and jump on the exercise bike every chance I get. But if I can't exercise, the effects of the NMN are not so noticeable. BTW, haven't noticed any effect on my skin so far.
Thank you so much for sharing this. That is so awesome to hear! And, I do believe exercise is super important and I need to personally exercise a lot more. I can see how it would increase energy. Thanks again for sharing this. Just another motivator to restart my exercise regime that I have been slacking on.
Hiiii. What about your experience?
@@gabiramir5796 Well, I just wrote my experience. The NMN seems to multiply the vitalizing effect of exercise. Like however much I exercise, the effect is squared. 0 squared is 0 (means with zero exercise I don't feel effects from the NMN). 1 squared is 1, but 2 squared is 4, 3 squared is 9, etc., the effect goes up rapidly with more exercise. I get to the point where I crave more and more exercise every chance I get. I have never felt such a thing before, even when I was young I would rather curl up with a book.

I am 65+ I was taking NMN for 3 months. I noticed by the second month that Die had no fatigue and my energy level is much higher and I feel like I’m in my 50s or 40s… And then since I take a lot of other supplements, I didn’t give it much thought but I kept taking NMN.I am already four weeks without it because I’m waiting to re-order and I can feel the difference. I mean NMN absolutely works it just does.
What brand do you take please reply
I wish presenters would say brands that are genuine. When they do it’s usually the most expensive 😂🤷♀️
People not willing to help others
I do help if I can tho
When I started taking NR and NMM with resveratrol I had the most vivid dreams, nothing bad...it was like living two lives and I was excited to go to sleep in the evening. The effect lasted a couple of weeks. The excitement about NMN is that it requires only one reaction to make it into NAD+. David Sinclair seems to think it is slightly more effective then NR but offered no proof. I take a bit of each, NR and NMN, about 500 mg total between them. The other niacin that recharges NAD+ is nicotinic acid, it has it own pathway but requires several chemical reactions for the conversion. I take 500 mg to 750 mg a day...super cheap but it does cause flushing, that is why I take 250 mg at a time, above that and I flush. If you don't go into a deep flush....it feels really cool. :) A full flush with itching sucks. :(
Thanks so much for sharing some of your experience. The dreams sound fun! I've also read that NMN might more easily convert into NAD+. But, taking all three types sounds like a great idea too. Did you notice changes in your energy or health overall? I noticed I'm able to exercise a lot more, where I had very little energy to do so before. I haven't had a niacin flush before - sounds like a hot flash. :)) Thanks again for sharing this! And, when did you start taking these?
@@LifeDIY I do have allot more energy and don't nap near as much. Not sure if it is NMN and Resveratrol or my whole food plant based diet or my workout routine or maybe all three. My blood pressure is way down but I still need a blood pressure med, I'm looking forward to getting rid of that. Every time I try to wean myself off my BP starts to tick up...I have no idea what else I can do except maybe lose another 30 lbs. My insulin use is way down, I hope to be off of it soon. My goal is to be off all meds before I retire at 66....still 6 years away.
I've had the same vivid experiences of dreams almost out of body type by taking the lion's mane mushroom at night with ashwagandha during the day.

what do you think Prohealthy web?
I have been using niacin for about year for lipid issues. I will buy soon nmn. Thanks alot for sharing your experience!
Oh, you have also inspired me to get my NAD level tested before starting my first NAD precursor. Not sure that I prefer the NAD score from my VA bloodwork. Prefer private testing. Any suggestions on where/who to get my NAD levels checked? Perhaps you stated in your videos. Will rewatch. Will likely test out NR first, then NMN, then that combo product you mention in your other video. Thanks teacher. Great effort and sharing. Love your health comeback. Congratulations!
Brendan, thanks for sharing this. What kind of NAD score from your bloodwork are you referring to? And, hope you check out my latest video as I have a 3 year update on my experiences. I do talk about the testing in that video too. I get mine from Renue By Science as they sell them.
@@LifeDIY I think I saw it. Thanks. Will get tested when my next job starts. Just getting ramped up into all this NAD+ stuff. Wonderful.
@@LifeDIY Renue by Science. Cool.
Dear, I'm suffering from premature skin aging and I'm not even thirty. I look older than you by genetic reasons. Since you're working to alive by nature - could you recommend a product that could, even by chance, help restore the healthy tighter skin.
S L, I am sorry to hear that. I have a couple recommendations. With Alive by Nature/Alive By Science - their face serum is what I would definitely recommend. I helped conduct a trial that lasted several months and you can see some details and results here: alivebyscience.com/renue-serum-trial/ and it really helped improve the skin for many people. Other than that, I would recommend either a retinol type product and/or the use of glycolic acid peels somewhat regularly. I think those help improve the skin so much. They help with cellular turnover and renewal. Have you tried many skincare treatments or products?
I felt an instant effect first time taking NMN today. I'll relate it to take 1.5 magic mushroom caps. Like an enlightening. I take resveratrol for a month. I don't get a feeling from it but hope it does it's job. I take that with yogurt and 2 capsules of the cod fat pills. Hopefully this NMN effect stays and hits every dose like this. I might combine my micro dose of mushrooms with NMN next time
When you first took it you were also taking resveratrol with it? I’ve been taking NMN by itself for a week now and haven’t really noticed anything. I’m 31 male though so not sure if I’m supposed to feel an effect. Would love an energy boost.
@@zaheen656 - there is a lot of fake NMN products out there

On 250mg of NMN daily right now, doesn't seem to increase energy that much for me but it's definitely more noticeable than baseline, I am 20 though so my NAD+ levels should already be fine. I find it has a great mood boost though
Can I know where do you order yours from?
@@lifeinthebigcity37 I get it from nootropics depot, they have pills and powder version, pretty sure it's listed as nicotinamide mononucleotide
@@doomsday437 Thank you. I am trying to find out where they sell good quality NMN.
NR and NMN deplete the body of methyl groups, which leads to elevated levels of homocysteine. That increases heart attack risk. In order to counteract this effect, you need to be taking TMG along with your NR. Also, niacin is another precursor of NAD and it is dirt cheap if you don't mind the flushing side effect. Sustained-release niacin and extended-release niacin don't cause flushing, but sustained-release niacin is associated with liver damage and I take plain old niacin (500mg) to be on the safe side.
Thanks, Richard. I agree that it's possible for methylation issues when taking higher amounts of standard NMN or NR. But, if you take a form that is more bioavailable (lipsomal) it will be much less of an issue. Many people take TMG just in case though. I do as well. If anyone is interested, I could always do a histamine & homocysteine test sometime and share the results when taking TMG vs not taking it with NMN to see what a difference the TMG can make on the levels.
Thank you
@@LifeDIY Yes pls do those tests ... that would be such a great help .

Love your channel! Your such a beauty 🤩😁💗 I already bought some stuff that you've recommended👍🏻. I'm definitely gonna have to try these items cause I also suffer from hypothyroidism 😩 and most of the time my energy just isn't there 😒 sucks!🤷🏼♀️but gotta deal with it. Thanks for the great info and I'm definitely gonna keep watching your channel and giving you a thumbs up😊💗 👍🏻
Hi Angela! Thanks so much for the nice comment. How long have you been dealing with the hypothyroidism? It can be rough. At least you are doing what you can to try to improve things. :) Thanks so much for taking the time to watch! If you end up trying NR, I hope it helps. Sorry if personal, but have you been tested for Hashimotos too?
@@LifeDIY I've been dealing with it for a lil over 3 years now. But I barely started getting medication for it about 2 months ago. I was at borderline so the Dr. didn't want to prescribe me medicine even though I had the symptoms. I would juice when I felt really bad but about 5 months ago it felt like it was getting worse and my thyroid gland started to swell and that's when I went to get checked again and they finally gave me medicine. But even with the medicine I can feel my thyroid gland swell up sometimes 😕 ....🤔 And I don't believe I was tested for hashimotos.
Hi Angela. I am so sorry for my late reply. I planned on replying weeks ago and not sure what happened. I am sorry you are dealing with the thyroid problems. That is terrible and I can relate. I used to have that symptom of my thyroid swelling and hurting a lot also. I would have that when I would eat gluten or just when the autoimmune issues was flaring up. I haven't had that in years luckily. If you have some time, I highly recommend checking out the website of Izabella Wentz - thyroidpharmacist.com/articles/. She has a book that also helped me immensely in getting to the root causes of my problems. You may also want to check out or look into something called LDN - low dose naltrexone. My doctor prescribed it - though I had to be totally off of gluten and dairy - and it drastically improved my life and my issues lessened so much. At one point I was able to get off of thyroid medicine. I've basically been on it for about 5 years and I have had to change things up since I've been on it so long but it is still helping me quite a lot. That's too bad they didn't even test you. But, it seems obvious based on your symptoms as it is usually Hashimotos. If your doctor isn't helping you and if you want or need my doctor's info, I can email it to you. He is in southern Wisconsin and he takes on clients from all over the states I think. If people can't get to his office (even I live many many hours away) he does phone consults and I think his prices are really reasonable. He deals with people who have thyroid problems - whose doctors aren't helping them properly. Besides that, if you ever needed testing and could afford it, you can also order labs online and you don't need your primary doctor. Anyhow, I just hope things get better. Let me know if I can help in any way. I might make forums on my website and if I do that, I will have a health section for this. Anyhow, hope you have a great rest of your weekend. :)
@@LifeDIY Thank you!💗 I will definitely check out that website. As for the doctor I'll wait on that one for now. Only because it hasn't been to long since I started my thyroid medication. My symptoms have gotten a lil better but I'll be going back for more testing in 3 months again to see if they need to adjust it. Maybe later down the road if I'm still having issues then I'll ask for it 😊
Are you completely off the thyroid medication after taking naltrexone? Cause if so that would be awesome 😁👍🏻
Stop eating grains if you're hypothyroid...give it a try, there's nothing to lose
Do you take liposomal? What brands do you recommend?
I took TMG with nmn ...first time I felt like I was having a panic attack . So stimulating ... I also have a autoimmune condition and insomnia. I stopped taking it
Sorry to hear that. I felt that stimulated feeling too with the tiniest dose. Wish the companies would recommend starting out low - or sell lower doses. I can relate. :)
How nice is this Lady :)
Thanks!
Hi Holly :-)
So practically, what do you recommend?
Take NMN first thing in the morning? -
then how long should you wait before
having breakfast? Or can you have
breakfast straight away after taking
NMN?
Many thanks :-)
Hi! For me, I do take NMN first thing in the morning. I don't think you need to wait long before having breakfast. I understand the concern though. I take one that is sublingual now and I think about 30% gets into the bloodstream rather fast when taken that way. I think it's fine to eat anytime!
You should eat right a way. NMN is fat soluble, so it is most effective encapsulated within a fat or oil.
I am currently taking NMN for brand called, PNC Nutrition, and I am wondering if the supplement from this brand is good or not.
I got NMN with Resveratrol, Quercetin, Fisetin, Q10 and other combination. Very positive effects, surprising! It’s pricy, but worrh of the money.
That's great to hear! Great supplement combo.
I've been taking NR and resveratrol for more than five years. I don't really feel any different than before starting the NR. I'm continuing to use it (at age 67) based on a leap of faith in the science.
Did it make difference in ur body age
@@user-rm1cp4xj9t by what measure? Appearance? No, I still look my age. Health? No, I still have the same good health that I had before I started taking NR. Other than that it's hard to know without specific tests and measurements of which I'm not capable.

are you also working out and getting your heart rate up while taking nmn

Totally agree 😁
At 59 (male) I experience the same thing and have noticed it in others who take NMN. For me it's the number one noticeable effect. I find that since starting NMN it has short term and long term effects, both being the same but the long term effects (i.e.If you stop taking it for a while) improve your general health let's say 10% to what it was, while short term effects (within an hour of taking it) boost the effects about 70%. Each time I stop using it, there's always a definite improvement on last time.

Her metabolism is young, genes too
She's wearing makeup, breh. Lol, you're not seeing an accurate depiction of her skin...
Hello! You popped up in my feed tonight most likely because I am a huge DIY fanatic of everything & have been reading up again on NMN & NR. I loved your vid because like you I have hypothyroid, suffer from terrible insomnia as well as have several other health issues on board. I used to be a competative athlete & am a polar opposite now.. Anyhow I have so many questions for you from several standpoints. I also come from a licensed beauty, skin, hair, health backgrounds so I’m greatly interested to see if you noticed anything in the way of skin brightening, smoothness, firmness, hair health like thicker or reversal in greys? Also curious to know how things are for you now as far as energy stuff goes.. I’ve tried so many things over the years but ultimately they seem to plateau so I end up taking little breaks from all of it basically. Anyhow I would so love to hear an up to date sort of recap on how your feeling now, results you have seen up to present with each of these areas. I am so glad to have found you & look forward to watching all your vids! Thanks so much for sharing your info! Take care.
Hi Elle🌺 and sorry for not replying sooner. I am so glad you found my channel. It sounds like we have a lot in common! The question you're asking about if NMN has helped my skin - that one is one of the toughest for me to answer because I do a lot of skin treatments and use a lot of skincare at home. But, I know for sure that when I take liposomal NMN, my nails are thicker and stronger. My hair is already thick to begin with, so I'm not sure about that. In the past, I used to have autoimmune flareups and every single time I had them, I'd have tons of pure white hair growing in on my eyebrows. I don't have that anymore but occasionally I will get a few of them. I just haven't figure out the trigger yet. I totally understand about things working and then the plateau. I will try to do a video on this really really soon. I can say that my diet has been the most important thing in improving my health and first it was getting rid of gluten and dairy. I know it's really hard for people and everyone is different, but that made a huge difference. Have you tried LDN? It really helped me as well and I don't need it anymore but I do take it from time to time if my thyroid is out of whack. Do you have Hashimotos too? Other than that, the NMN has greatly improved my life, energy and sleep. Overall my health is so much better than it was in the past, but it was from a combination of things - like putting pieces of a puzzle together and slowly getting better. :) I hope I can help answer more questions in a video soon! I would love to help any way that I can. :)
@@LifeDIY Hello! Oh no worries at all! Thank you for replying! Yes I too am always doing all kinds of things to my skin, hair, etc. I’ve actually been licensed in a few areas of beauty, health, wellness but am not currently practicing. I do keep up on as much science as I can because I’ve always been big into it but I love hearing other peoples experiences w/things. I am going to give this a go. So do you have a brand of liposomal NMN that you like best? I have actually tried LDN for autoimmune disorders & pain. It did help but often times was not enough. Nothing really ever seems to work 100% all of the time, esp in this department. Like you def get to a point where whatever you’re taking seems to not be as effective. For this reason I tend to cycle through a few different things which seems to help. I’m not a big eater but def a healthy eater. I take a handful of various supps. A couple things I like very much for skin is Vit K or MK-7 from natto, Phytoceramides but make sure you get a blend from sweet potato & rice, if you want brand names just let me know. I also like liposomal VitC & I take various omegas, mostly 3, 7, & 9. I have to stay away from Omega 6 because it’s proflammatory & really flares me up, esp w/stiffness & pain. Anyhow I am really looking forward to see if NMN helps w/health issues & ofcourse I will gladly welcome any anti-aging & skin help I can get!😂 Thank you so much for your help & love your channel! So glad you popped up in my feed! Have a great week!
Im new to watching so i havent watched alot of your videos. But im finding the info really useful so far. Im wondering have you had a CFS diagnosis if you dont mind me asking?
Hey Mike. If I remember correctly, I know doc's have put "fatigue" and possibly "chronic fatigue" in my records in the past. None of the doctors I saw were people who seemed to believe in CFS and that was not mentioned. If you have time, I hope you'll check out my most recent video after using these supplements for 3 yrs. I talk about my health conditions in more detail too. :) Thanks!
@@LifeDIY thanks so much for the reply. Im struggling with cfs and its taken along time to find a doctor that can help ive just started nac, glycine and nad+
@@miked5487 no problem! Did you end up finding a good doc or not yet? If not, I do know of one amazing dr. Who has helped so many people with cfs, thyroid and other similar issues. He does phone calls too. He is in IL.
@@LifeDIY yeh thanks i found one who has helped a bit. I live in New Zealand.
@@miked5487 Ah I see. I am glad you found one. But if you ever need more help, I can give you my doc's info. I hope things get better for you with the CFS. I know how terrible it is.
The NMN has to be stored in freezer otherwise it has a short life as NMN.
It would be a very good idea to have a full blood test done before taking any supplements. I had mine checked and found my folic acid and b12 levels to be borderline low. After sorting that out I feel 100 times better.
It would be dangerous to mask a problem that has potential irreversible effects by taking something else.
So true about getting bloodwork done. Sometimes no supplementation is better than over-supplementation. Many docs won't do comprehensive testing - ie: folic acid, b12, or even vitamin D. If that occurs, you can order bloodwork online from DHALabs or WalkinLabs or AnyLabTestNow (or some similar site) and get it done on your own, though the cost may be $100+. Always good to check on levels when possible.
Really can feel for you in your video
I feel the same having been suffered for depression, anxiety, ADHD and sleeping disorders for many years
Thank you, Carrie. :) 🙏
Can someone please recommend a third party lab that tests supplements? Thanks. Thank you for the video and I appreciate the comments that I’ve read here. Very informative.
