Read moreWhat is Nicotinamide Mononucleotide?
You may not have heard of it but it offers exciting health benefits. NMN—nicotinamide mononucleotide—is a form of vitamin B3 that is a direct precursor to NAD+. NAD+ is essential for enzymatic activities that maintain cellular and tissue health. As levels of NAD+ naturally decline with age, other concerns arise, including cognitive and metabolic health. While supplemental NAD+ is not readily absorbed by the body, adding precursors such as NMN has been shown to increase NAD+ levels to promote healthy aging.
Swanson NMN can help maintain healthy levels of NAD+ in the body. Each single-capsule serving delivers 300 mg of 98% pure nicotinamide mononucleotide. Adding an NMN supplement to your routine may support healthy metabolism and glucose levels as well as healthy insulin sensitivity, particularly in postmenopausal women. -
Buy productWhat is Taurine?
Taurine is a conditionally essential amino acid which is not utilized for protein synthesis, but is mainly found free in most tissues, especially throughout the nervous system. It functions in tissues by stabilizing cell membranes, aiding the transport of potassium, sodium, calcium and magnesium in and out of cells. Taurine helps to generate and regulate nerve impulses and aids in the maintenance of fluid balance; it is also used by the body in visual pathways, as well as in the brain and nervous system, where it works together with glycine and GABA as a neurotransmitter.
