  • In this week's video I share the early results of taking NMN, TMG and berberine together with my parents for one month - and whether we intend to keep going with this anti-aging regime, recommended by Dr Elena Seranova of NMN Bio.
    We also discuss safety, and the powerful effects of taking this as a supplements combo, with berberine one of the most exciting natural solutions to supporting blood sugar levels.

    I’ve been taking nmn 450mg for a month and I noticed a spike in my energy straight away, work outs are much more enjoyable, deep sleep and dreams, skin is noticeably softer (I am 54)… went to a function with friends and family recently and two people asked what I was doing as I look younger! So I am hooked, I believe incorporating daily exercise and good nutrition is part of this as they help to generate the effects even more. The Pulse is a good Chanel to follow on this subject.

    This regimen sounds great ! I am on a low budget so I use Nicotinic acid instead of NMN. Dr. Stanfield says that NMN and NR are quickly converted to Nicotinic acid after ingestion, so Dr. Stanfield uses 51mg Nicotinic acid instead of NMN.
    Exercise I do now -
    (To Raise Blood Oxygen, drop blood sugar, strengthen legs, arms and back) :
    One or Two Minute Exercise Every Hour.
    Sit on side of bed holding a small 5# weight in each hand at head level.
    Stand, pushing weights up and inhaling through nose.
    Sit down, dropping weights back to original position.
    While moving down, with mouth closed, blow hard and release air on way down.
    The back pressure on the way down increases oxygen transfer to blood.
    VO5 will increase.
    Continue exercise set for 2 minutes.
    Do one set per hour. This has been shown to drop blood sugar spike so do extra sets after eating carbohydrates.
    Varation: Hold weights down. While standing up, pull weights up under arm pits to tone biceps.

    I like supplements, but EVERYONE should read "Fast and grow young". Our bodies are incredible miraculous creations with the ability to heal itself! All of todays "Dis-eases" are created by our diet. Our food lacks the nutrition it once had, and even 'organic food' has toxins from the soil. Fasting has long been doen throughout many cultures, and even animals instinctively 'fast' when they're sick. The book is fabulous and very eye opening.

    The tiredness is exactly how you are supposed to feel at night. It means that your circadian rhythm has been reset. Awake during the day and sleepy and ready for bed come night time. I had a similar experience going fully carnivore. Great sleeps and fully awake as soon as my alarm went off and I was ready to go for the day.

    Thanks for introducing Dr Seranova, she has a wonderful ability to explain things precisely and clearly. I know NMN works because at first I took it at night and had the worst sleeps with a hyperactive mind ! Although at the same time my ability to absorb information dramatically increased. Now it's the first thing to take when I wake up before I exercise. The mind does remain clearer and more grounded. I've slowly come to regard carbs as the enemy, in some ways a poison, and here is confirmation that Keto with a lot of low carb veg is the way ahead. Cycling is a good idea, I have found the effects diminishing although maybe I'm just getting used to it.

I definitely look and feel better, but how much if this do I contribute to NMN or living a different lifestyle????? It’s the same with all supplements I think. Only if we stop will we know if they did any good. Hope this helps.

      @@snowyowl6892 Taking TMG/betaine along with NMN (or NR) helps with healthy methylation in the body -- it replenishes the methyl groups, since boosting NAD+ drains methyl groups, which can affect various biological functions. Studies also suggest that TMG may help reduce higher levels of homocysteine that can harden arteries, help manage fatty liver, help with insulin resistance, and with managing symptoms of anxiety and depression. The recommendation is to take equal parts TMG and NMN/NR.

I shed the excess weight easily and never felt hungry on one meal a day. Sleep Apnoea and Acid Reflux gone. However, I think those things caused damage that I will have live with.

    In 1982 Pearson & Shaw in "Life Extension, A practical scientific approach" suggested caution in abruptly stopping megadoses of water soluble vitamins because of the potential of causing symptoms of vitamin deficiency if cells and tissues acclimated to high levels of vitamins are suddenly deprived of them. For this reason I doubt that "cycling" a water soluble co-enzyme like NMN is a good idea, at least not without a gradual taper off the dosage over a period of two or three weeks. For the same reasons Dr. Seranova recommends ramping up dosage when starting a new supplement, when quitting I think it advisable to ramp down the dosage over time as well. Cells seek to maintain Homeostasis, and abrupt changes mess with that.

    Please can you discuss the role of NMN in rescuing female fertility on the next one? I know there's not much research into this area as yet, but despite the impact on reversing ageing on mouse fertility, it's being ignored atm. If men had menopause I'm sure it would be a different story! I'm taking NMN in the hope it reverses menopause temporarily and boosts my egg health. I'm also taking tmg and several other fertility boosters. I'm on a low carb diet too to reverse insulin resistance.
    Btw are you aware of the FDA ban on NMN as a supplement in the USA? Apparently it's being withdrawn from USA shelves on March 13th and recategorised as a drug. Not sure what that means for NMN takers in the UK as yet despite reassurances from various companies. I'm following a GP who's wife had her menopause reversed on NMN. The current research shows the ideal dose of NMN is 600mg daily and powder is usually cheaper than capsules. You can Google the info on dosage/trials etc. The info is on TH-cam too. I also follow a channel called My NMN Experiment which posts lots of NMN studies that you might find useful. 250mg seems a very low dose to me but as you know it is an expensive supplement. You might want to add Apigenin or dried parsley or celery seed to your protocols to lower your CD38 levels to get the most from your NMN (CD38 increases with age and it lowers NAD). I hope it helps your parents. My dad has prostate cancer and I had a thyroid issue myself that I healed myself whilst reducing thyroxine, against medical advice....gradually! Not suggesting anyone should follow my example, but it can be done if you heal your body.

It's all rather confusing because it seems like he is continuing to sell his special formula.

After reviewing multiple scientiific studies on resveratrol, he has concluded that most of what we are reading and hearing is just hype, unsubstantiated promo, if you will, and more scientific research is needed to confirm or dismiss it as an effective contributor to our anti-aging protocols. He is here on You Tube. Also, David Sinclair refuses to engage in a discussion with him regarding his findings. I take resveratrol daily by the way.

      Hi ! Is there a reason for you to cycle NMN only on Wednesday and Saturday mornings ?

      Resveratrol isn't all that. A lot of the studies have been debunked

    This is all based on anti-aging pioneer, Harvard's David Sinclair's protocol, which has proven results. I advise going easy on the berberine if you have stomach and digestion issues, as it caused terrible cramping in my intestines. I recommend Metformin (off-label) for blood sugar control for those that have similar issues.

      What about the more absorbable form of berberine called dihydroberberine? Supposedly one can take a lower dose with less concern about side effects.

      Berberine can also cause constipation.

    I've long taken a whack of supplements - including berberine et al - but it would be rather more convincing here if the guest speaker wasn't peddling these supplements. Moreover, no mention is made of the simplest, cheapest and likely most effective way to reduce / eliminate insulin resistance, i.e., by intermittent fasting and time-restricted feeding (I eat mostly only within a 6 hr. window; so 18 hours fasting per day). These regimens also reduce carbs and result in caloric restriction (since you are simply eating only one to two meals a day). There is also the question of the bioavailability of NMN...and, naturally, the expense.
