Some friends have reported that the effect of NMN is not significant after taking it, some have reported that it has no effect on anti-aging, and some have even reported symptoms such as acne and excessive heat after taking it, making them afraid to take it. Why is this?
Today, let's talk about the "adverse reactions" of taking NMN:
1. No effect felt
If the effect is not significant after taking it, there may be several reasons:
The time taken is too short
One reason is that the duration of taking NMN is too short, and the effect of NMN has not yet been fully realized. In fact, as long as you start taking NMN, your body is undergoing improvement and changes, so you must persist in taking it.
Previously, an N friend ate NMN for 15 days and came to me asking why it didn't work? I said don't worry for now. Since I bought it, I will continue to take it and observe the effect.
The second is to choose the wrong brand, which has too low content.
You must choose a brand with high content. If the content is too low, it will not work! It is best to supplement 500 milligrams per day, which is currently the optimal dosage determined through several years of human clinical trials.
The content of NMN meets the standard, but the absorption rate may not necessarily meet the standard. Studies have shown that rare ginsenosides can promote the absorption effect of NMN by more than 4 times. Therefore, the combination of NMN and rare ginsenosides can achieve a higher absorption rate!
The third issue is insufficient purity.
It is best not to choose NMN raw materials, which are raw materials and not food, and are not regulated, so purity cannot be guaranteed. If you have anti-aging and health awareness, you cannot choose these raw materials, as impurities will accumulate in the body for a long time and damage liver and kidney function.
Never choose low-priced NMN products, such as the one or two hundred yuan on Pinduoduo or the NMN products claimed to be imported, as this price is far from enough to cover the cost! It is highly likely that unscrupulous merchants use low-cost NR, NAM, or even a few yuan per bottle of niacin NA to counterfeit NMN.
2. Long acne
Acne is formed by the secretion of a large amount of subcutaneous fat, and its principle is:
After entering the human body, NMN is converted into NAD+, promoting cellular metabolism and producing more ATP, leading to the synthesis of more sex hormones in the body. Changes in sex hormone levels may lead to the production of acne.
3. Skin itching
Skin itching is the discharge of pathogenic factors such as "cold" and "dampness" from the body, which is a manifestation of the accumulation of toxins and garbage from the skin. It is also a common "adjustment" reaction in many people with chronic diseases during the conditioning process. It is often due to poor kidney function, qi stagnation and blood stasis. The affected area has normal circulation of qi and blood, but the skin cannot cope with the discharge of a large amount of toxins, resulting in itching.
After NMN adjusts the symptoms, it won't itch anymore.
4. Excessive heat and oral ulcers
NMN activates cells and glands in organs such as the stomach, spleen, and kidneys, but various peripheral tissues in the body are still in a state of sluggishness and aging, leading to temporary body imbalances such as excessive heat and oral ulcers.
5. I'm too energetic to sleep
NMN can repair neurons, promote dopamine synthesis, and improve a person's mental state with full vitality. Some people may even have difficulty sleeping at night.
It is recommended not to take NMN at night, and to take it in the morning and afternoon as much as possible. This will improve mental health without affecting sleep.
In short, it is very normal to experience these "adjustment reactions" when taking NMN. Different constitutions and health states will also result in different reactions! This is NMN repairing your cells and body. Generally speaking, it will return to normal after a period of time, so don't worry.
