NMN was only considered as a source of cellular energy and an intermediate in NAD+ biosynthesis, currently, the attention of the scientific community has been paid on anti-aging activity and a variety of health benefits and pharmacological activities of NMN which are related to the restoring of NAD+. Thus, NMN has therapeutic effects towards a range of diseases, including age-induced type 2 diabetes, obesity, cerebral and cardiac ischemia, heart failure and cardiomyopathies, Alzheimer’s disease and other neurodegenerative disorders, corneal injury, macular degeneration and retinal degeneration, acute kidney injury and alcoholic liver disease.
NMN powder in general is typically produced via chemical or enzymatic synthesis, or fermentation biosynthesis. There are pros and cons to all three methods.
Chemical synthesis is expensive and labor intensive, and all raw ingredients used are categorized as “unnatural,” i.e., not from biological systems. There are, however, some advantages from the manufacturer’s perspective. The yield is well suited to mass NMN powder production, and all of those unnatural raw ingredients can be carefully controlled. But there are a number of drawbacks as well. Some of the solvents used in the manufacturing process are seriously bad from an environmental standpoint, and impurities and by-products can be challenging to remove from the finished product – that’s seriously bad for the consumer.
Enzymatic production of NMN powder, on the other hand, is considered a “green preparation method.” Like the chemical route, it’s pricey, but it offers a higher yield and impressively high purity. The finished NMN ticks all the boxes – stable, easily absorbed, lightweight, low density, and a low molecular structure.
Fermentation has also been explored as a method of producing NMN, but yield, though high quality, is pretty abysmal, so many supplement companies quite sensibly look to other, more efficacious processes.
Aging, as a natural process is identified by downregulation of energy production in mitochondria of various organs such as brain, adipose tissue, skin, liver, skeletal muscle and pancreas due to the depletion of NAD+ . NAD+ levels in the body decrease as a consequence of increasing NAD+ consuming enzymes when aging There are three different biosynthesis pathways to produce NAD+ in mammalian cells including de novo synthesis from tryptophan, salt and Preiss-Handler pathways. Among these three pathways, NMN is an interproduct by is involved in NAD+ biosynthesis through salt and Preiss-Handler pathways. The salvage pathway is the most efficient and the main route for the NAD+ biosynthesis, in which nicotinamide and 5-phosphoribosyl-1-pyrophosphate are converted to NMN with the enzyme of NAMPT followed by conjugation to ATP and conversion to NAD by NMNAT. Furthermore, NAD+ consuming enzymes are responsible for degradation of NAD+ and consequence nt formation of nicotinamide as a by-product.
The safety of NMN powder cannot be assessed since required clinical and toxicological studies have not been completed yet to establish the recommended safe levels for long term administration. Nevertheless, their safety and efficacy are uncertain and unreliable since most of them have not been back by Rigorous scientific preclinical and clinical testing. This issue has been arisen as manufacturers are hesitant to pay for research and clinical trials due to potential lower profit margin, and there is no authorizing agency to regulate NMN products because it is often product sold as functional food than heavily regulated therapeutic drug. Therefore, more strict approval process has been demanded by consumer advocacy groups requesting regulatory agencies to set standard and restrictions for marketing anti-aging health products, considering safety, health and wellbeing of N red besumers. a panacea for the elderly, because boosting NAD levels when not required may yield some detrimental effects. Therefore, the dose and frequency of NMN supplementation should be carefully prescribed depending on the type of age-related deficiency and all other confronting health conditions of the people. Other NAD precursors over have been studied to diverse age-related deficiencies and they are used for particular deficiencies, only after they are proven for effectiveness and safe to use. Therefore, the same principle should be applied to NMN as well
First, inspect the factory. After some screening, NMN companied that directly face consumers pay more attention to brand building. Therefore, for a good brand, quality is the most important thing, and the first thing to control the quality of raw materials is to inspect the factory. Bontac company actually manufacturing NMN powder of high quality with the caterias of SGS. Secondly, the purity is tested. Purity is one of the most important parameters of NMN powder. If high purity NMN cannot be guaranteed, the remaining substances are likely to exceed the relevant standards. As the attached certificates demonstrates that the NMN powder produced by Bontac reach the purity of 99.9%. Finally, a professional test spectrum is needed to prove it. Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (NMR) and high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS). Usually through the analysis of these two spectra, the structure of the compound ca n be preliminarily determined.
1. Introduction Heart failure is a serious condition in the development of cardiovascular disease. In particular, diastolic heart failure, as one of the most common manifestations of heart failure in the elderly, has always been viewed as a classic aging-related terminal illness due to its high prevalence and lack of effective treatment. Nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) raises the hope for the treatment of this illness. NMN can restore the functions of heart and blood vessels, protect the heart from damage after a heart attack, prevent heart failure by promoting the health of the mitochondria, and restore cardiovascular, cognitive, and metabolic decline. This study is dedicated to deciphering another mechanism of action for NMN administration, namely improving lysosomal ferroptosis to prevent heart failure. 2. The key pathogenesis of diastolic heart failure The effect of NMN on improving cardiac function is mainly realized by elevating the level of myocardial nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+), an important coenzyme in the tricarboxylic acid cycle. The mitochondrial dysfunction and decreased ability of NAD+ biosynthesis are the key pathogenesis of diastolic heart failure. 3. Restoration of lysosomal function and autophagic function by NMN administration Lysosomal function is impaired owing to decreased NAD+ biosynthesis in vivo. NMN administration improves lysosomal function and activates amino acid metabolism in the mice with cardiomyocyte-specific knockout of p32 (p32cKO), yet barely affects the lysosomal morphology. Additionally, NMN administration improves the degradation mechanism of autophagy, as evidenced by the restoration of autophagic function post NMN administration. 4. The detailed mechanism of action for NMN administration on heart failure NMN administration does not restore functional mitochondrial damage caused by the inhibition of mitochondrial translation. These findings suggest that NMN administration improves heart failure by improving lysosomal function without improving mitochondrial function. 5. The involvement of ferroptosis in heart-specific mitochondrial translation defect The suppression of ferroptosis ameliorates heart failure. The expression levels of ferroptosis-related factors (Chac1, GPX4, and Ho1) are also diminished by NMN, indicating that ferroptosis in the p32cKO heart is improved by NMN administration. 6. The improvement of mitochondrial dysfunction-induced ferroptosis by NMN administration The ferroptosis is induced in the p32 knockdown cells, as attested by the mitochondrial translation defect and the downregulation of intracellular NAD+ and NADH levels. The induction of ferroptosis in lysosome is closely related to the amount of NAD+ biosynthesis. When intracellular NAD+ level is lowered, the intracellular iron deposition and lipid peroxide are induced, which however are ameliorated by NMN administration. 7. Conclusion Mechanically, NMN administration can prevent heart failure by improving lysosomal ferroptosis, opening up new insight for the treatment of this illness.

1. Introduction On July 2023, the World Health Organization (WHO) has classified the soda sweetener aspartame as a possible carcinogen, but said that aspartame is safe to consume within a daily limit of 40 milligrams per kilogram of a person’s body weight according to the latest assessment results regarding the impacts of the non-sugar sweetener aspartame upon the health. How about another sweetener stevioside? Is stevioside a sugar reducer or a health killer? 2. Current situation on stevioside Stevioside (also termed stevia glycoside) has been regarded as “the third largest source of natural sugar across the world” by virtue of its low calorie, high sweetness, good stability and low price, which is widely used in medicine, daily chemicals, beverage, food, brewing and other industries. 3. Regulatory application and control of stevioside The aforementioned report of WHO on the possible carcinogenesis of soda sweetener aspartame is based on high intake. An adult weighing 70 kilograms or 154 pounds would have to drink more than 9 to 14 cans of aspartame-containing soda daily to exceed the limit and potentially face health risks. There is no need to be worry about the risk of carcinogenesis in the case of healthy intake. The same situation is applicable to another sweetener stevioside. Stevioside is approved to be sweetener in food in countries like Mainland China, Japan, Korea, Australia, New Zealand, the USA and European Union. In China, there are detail specifications on the food additive stevioside (GB 2760-2014). 4. The therapeutic properties of stevioside 4.1 Antitumor effect Stevioside can be applied as a valuable chemotherapy candidate to be further investigated for cancer therapy. The activity of the well-known tumor promoter, 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), is successfully inhibited with stevioside in a murine skin-cancer model. In addition, stevioside can reduce mammary adenoma incidence in F344 rats. 4.2 Anti-hypertensive activity The hypotensive effect observed in rats after chronic oral administration (30 days) of 2.67 g stevia leaves/day has been confirmed in spontaneously hypertensive rats. In that murine model, stevioside (100 mg/kg; i.v.) is able to reduce blood pressure with no change in serum epinephrine, norepinephrine, or dopamine levels. 4.3 Anti-diabetics In diabetic rats, stevioside (0.2 g/kg; i.v. administration) decreases glucose blood levels, yet increases insulin responses and reactions to an intravenous glucose tolerance test (IVGT). Also, stevioside enhances insulin levels above basal during the IVGT, without altering blood glucose response, in normal rats, hinting its potential as a drug candidate for type 2 diabetes. 4.4 Inhibition of pathogenic bacteria Stevioside has demonstrated antibacterial action on various foodborne pathogenic bacteria, including Escherichia coli, a wellknown etiologic agent of severe diarrhea. Regarding antiviral properties, stevioside seems to impede binding of rotavirus to host cells. Rotavirus is commonly associated with pediatric gastroenteritis. 4.5 Anti-inflammatory property In lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated THP1 cells, stevioside (1mM) inhibits NF-κB. Moreover, stevioside prevents in vitro upregulation of genes involved in liver inflammation. In addition, silico assays demonstrate its antagonistic action in two proinflammatory receptors: tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR)-1 and Toll-like receptor (TLR)-4-MD2. 4.6 Antioxidant capability The antioxidant effects of stevioside and rebaudioside A have been confirmed in a fish model, both of which effectively control lipoperoxidation and protein carbonylation. Furthermore, stevioside prevents oxidative DNA damage in the livers and kidneys of a type 2 diabetes murine model. 5 Conclusion As long as the intake is properly controlled, stevioside can be very useful. Stevioside holds a great promise in the clinical treatment and daily health care. Reference Orellana-Paucar A. M. (2023).
