NMN has some potential to improve women’s health.
Improvements to the skin
1. Reduces wrinkles and improves firmness
As women age, their skin loses collagen, leading to wrinkles and sagging.
NMN can increase NAD+ levels in the body and activate a family of proteins called sirtuins, in which SIRT1 promotes collagen production, increases skin elasticity and reduces wrinkles.
For example, some women, after taking NMN for a period of time, observe facial wrinkles become lighter and the skin becomes more firm and shiny.
2. Improves skin tone and reduces spots
Oxidative stress and inflammation can cause problems such as dull skin and dark spots.
NMN has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, which can reduce free radical damage to skin cells and improve skin tone.
It can also regulate the production of melanin and reduce the formation of dark spots.
Some women report that after using skin care products containing β-Nicotinamide Mononucleotide or taking NMN orally, the skin tone becomes more even and the color spots also fade.
Effects on reproductive health
1. Improve ovarian function
As women age, their ovarian function gradually declines, which can lead to problems such as irregular menstruation and infertility.
Studies have found that NMN can improve mitochondrial function by increasing the level of NAD+, thereby protecting ovarian cells and delaying ovarian aging.
For example, in some animal experiments, older female mice given NMN supplementation showed improvements in ovarian function and improved egg quality.
2. Relieve menopausal symptoms
Menopause is an important stage in women’s lives, often accompanied by hot flashes, night sweats, insomnia, mood swings and other uncomfortable symptoms.
NMN may relieve menopausal symptoms by regulating the endocrine system and improving nervous system function.
Some menopausal women who take NMN experience a reduction in symptoms such as hot flashes and night sweats, as well as an improvement in sleep quality and emotional state.
Regulation of energy and metabolism
1. Increases energy and endurance
Women also need adequate energy support in their daily life and work.
NMN can improve mitochondrial function, promote energy production, and increase the body’s energy reserves.
This is especially important for women who often feel tired and lack energy.
For example, some working women feel more energetic after taking NMN and are better able to cope with the challenges of work and life.
2. Promote fat metabolism
Maintaining a healthy weight is essential for a woman’s overall health.
NMN may promote fat metabolism and reduce fat accumulation by activating AMPK signaling pathway.
Some women who take NMN find that they lose weight and tighten their body.
Protection of cognitive function
1. Improves memory and concentration
As women age, they may experience cognitive problems such as memory loss and difficulty concentrating.
NMN can protect nerve cells and improve cognitive function by increasing NAD+ levels, activating SIRT1 and other sirtuins proteins.
After taking β-Nicotinamide Mononucleotide, some women reported improved memory and concentration, as well as improved learning and work efficiency.
2. Prevent neurodegenerative diseases
Women have a relatively high risk of developing neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease.
NMN may prevent neurodegenerative diseases through a variety of mechanisms, such as reducing oxidative stress, inflammation, and tau phosphorylation.
Although the current research on NMN’s role in preventing neurodegenerative diseases is still in its early stages, this offers a potential pathway of protection for women’s health.
