NMN, full name β- Nicotinamide mononucleotide is a naturally occurring substance in the human body that can be absorbed and converted into an important NAD+coenzyme.
NAD+plays a crucial role in cellular energy metabolism, DNA repair, and gene expression regulation. For women, NMN has multiple potential benefits.
01 NMN helps to delay aging. As women age, their NAD+levels gradually decrease, which may lead to decreased cellular function and accelerated aging. Moderate supplementation of NMN can increase NAD+levels in the body, thereby helping to maintain normal cell function and delaying the aging process.
02 NMN also has a positive impact on women’s reproductive health. Research has shown that NMN may help delay female reproductive aging and even rejuvenate the ovaries of postmenopausal women. NMN can improve ovarian function, reduce follicle aging and damage, and help maintain female fertility by increasing NAD+levels in the body.
03 NMN also helps to protect vision, prevent high blood pressure, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and cancer. It can also improve hearing, enhance the body’s immune system, and have a positive impact on women’s overall health.
04 Improving skin quality and reducing wrinkles: NMN promotes collagen synthesis and increases cellular energy production, helping to improve skin elasticity and moisture content, reduce wrinkle formation, and make the skin younger and tighter.

05 NMN can inhibit DHT induced inflammatory response and oxidative stress by reducing ROS levels, increasing antioxidant enzyme activity, and inhibiting NF- κ Activation of the B p65 inflammatory signaling pathway. Regarding this efficacy, we also mentioned it in our previous article. Interested friends can take a look.
06 Reduce inflammation and relieve joint pain:
NMN has anti-inflammatory effects, which can alleviate inflammatory reactions, alleviate joint pain, improve joint health, and increase mobility.
As for the possible consequences of women lacking NMN, it is mainly related to the decrease in NAD+levels. This includes decreased cellular function, accelerated aging, and weakened reproductive ability.

There are no mandatory regulations for the use of NMN, but the following are some suggestions for reference:
Time and recommended dosage
Taking time: It is recommended to take NMN in the morning or after lunch. Due to the potential for NMN to boost energy, it is not recommended to take it at night to avoid affecting sleep.
Dosage and frequency: The recommended daily dosage for NMN is 1-2 milligrams per kilogram of body weight. For adults, approximately 500-1000 milligrams of NMN can be taken daily. If an NMN capsule contains a concentration of 150 milligrams, adults can take two at a time, which is 300 milligrams. However, please note that these recommendations are not fixed and the specific dosage and frequency should be determined based on individual circumstances and doctor’s advice.
Dose allocation: Considering the short half-life of NMN, which is only 10-30 minutes, it is recommended to allocate the dose to several meals to maintain its stable level in the body.
Points for Attention
After taking NMN, avoid drinking alcohol, caffeinated foods or drinks. In addition, pregnant women, adolescents, and children should avoid taking NMN. For any population, it is important to follow the advice of a doctor and avoid long-term excessive use.
Please note that although NMN is considered a relatively safe health product, its efficacy and safety still require further research and validation. Before starting to take NMN, it is recommended to consult a doctor or nutritionist to ensure safe and reasonable supplementation.
