Is NMN Good Helpful For Against COVID-2019?

The body’s initial response to an infectious threat like COVID-19, known as innate immune activation, depends on NAD+ . Viral infections deplete NAD+ because infections trigger a cellular defense cascade that results in increased NAD+ degradation to prevent the virus from taking over the cell. Significantly reduced NAD+ concentration has been shown in COVID-19 and some researchers think this is a major factor in why this virus is so deadly, especially to those with depleted NAD+ storage. Dr. Zhavoronkov proposed that Testing low-dose rapamycin individually or in combination with metformin, and NAD+ boosters such as nicotinamide riboside (NR), or nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) may help protect the elderly from gerolavic infection today and may also enhance economic recovery when the global pandemic is over.
In addition, studies have shown that NAD+ can trigger an immune system response to protect the body from a coronavirus such as COVID-19. A review published March 23, 2020 by Isfahan University of Medical Sciences provides evidence that low NAD+ levels could be tied to higher severity and morbidity rates in the COVID-19 pandemic. According to clinical trials, NMN supplements boost NAD+ to youthful levels. Making the NAD+ molecule available to SIRT1 genes enhances their ability to protect the body against disease and deterioration. As more studies are being conducted, researchers are finding that NAD+ also has an important role to play in regulating our immune systems.
