They’ve also found that macrophages (a type of white blood cell that eats potential invaders such as bacteria, fungi, parasites, and viruses) use a pathway synthesized by NAD+ to ensure cell survival and control inflammation. All in all, studies are indicating that NMN and the resulting increased levels of NAD+ can play an important role in helping our bodies fight off infections and bacteria. In other words, it has the potential to boost our immune systems and help them during times of infection and illness. A case study was published on April 22, 2020 by Dr. Robert Huizenga MD at University of Chicago describing his response to a 55-year old woman who had been hospitalized with COVID-19 on March 16. Her condition continued to worsen and on day 13 she had obvious pneumonia, cytokine storm and extremely elevated hsCRP, a non-specific inflammatory marker. Dr. Huizenga treated her with oral NMN, betaine and NaCl (known to reduce IL-6) and continued the zinc treatment she had been given prior. By day 15, her fever was alleviated and symptoms improved significantly. By day 17 she was discharged to go home. By day 23, she was asymptomatic. Two other elderly patients were treated with the same “cocktail” and both experienced similar recoveries.

NMN VS. NR: Which One Is Better? Nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) and nicotinamide riboside (NR) are biosynthetic precursors to an essential molecule for metabolism–nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+).The molecular structures of NMN and NR are roughly the same, except NMN has an added phosphate group. This added phosphate group makes NMN a larger molecule than NR. NR (nicotinamide riboside) and NMN (nicotinamide mononucleotide) supplements are both often touted as two of the most promising supplements to slow down aging.Taking NR and NMN powder increases NAD+ levels. Higher NAD+ levels protect our epigenome and DNA. Increasing NAD+ levels leads to many health benefits on various organs, such as the brain, cardiovascular system, and muscles.
