Nicotinamide Mononucleotide (NMN) is often regarded as an effective precursor to NAD+, but Nicotinamide Riboside (NR), found in our longevity product Bevivo Elevate, is now receiving significant attention as a potential even better alternative. Let us explain why.

Summary of this Article:

The Role of NMN and NR
NMN and NR are important precursors to NAD+, which is crucial for maintaining cellular metabolism, DNA health, and other metabolic functions.

Structural Differences
NMN and NR have different structures, which can affect their cellular uptake and conversion to NAD+. Research suggests that different tissues may prefer to use either NMN or NR.

Clinical Evidence Through Research
Both NMN and NR have been tested in human clinical trials, demonstrating their effectiveness in increasing NAD+ levels and confirming their safety.

Aging and Your NAD+ Levels
Supplementing with NMN or NR can help counteract the natural decline in NAD+ levels associated with aging, thereby supporting a healthy aging process.

As we age, our NAD+ levels decrease, which can significantly impact both functional and physical aging.

The Latest B3 Vitamin Family Supplements: NMN and NR
The new additions to the B3 vitamin family, NMN (nicotinamide mononucleotide) and NR (nicotinamide riboside), show promising results as effective NAD+ supplements. This development gives researchers worldwide hope for new treatments for age-related diseases and agents that may promote healthier aging.

So, which one should you choose—NMN or NR?
When choosing between the latest NAD+ precursors (NMN and NR), we recommend NR, as it is approved as a dietary supplement in both Norway and the EU. Some prominent researchers, such as Dr. David Sinclair from Harvard, theoretically suggest that NMN supplementation may offer unique benefits not found with NR.

What is Nicotinamide Riboside (NR)?
Nicotinamide Riboside (NR) has shown promising results in increasing NAD+ levels in the body more effectively than, for example, niacin, which many Scandinavians are familiar with. This is because NR is metabolically closer to NAD, offering several potential benefits.

As a result, nicotinamide riboside is currently the subject of scientific research worldwide due to its potential role in improving mitochondrial function, providing anti-aging effects, and supporting metabolic health. Extensive evaluation in various research models and clinical studies has shown that nicotinamide riboside is safe, with no reported serious side effects.

In January 2020, nicotinamide riboside was approved as a dietary supplement in the EU, with a recommended maximum daily dose of 300 mg for adults.

The New Anti-Aging Trend - Using a Solid NAD+ Precursor
Although NR and NMN are present in small amounts in various foods, consuming enough in daily life to significantly increase NAD+ levels is both difficult and impractical. Therefore, taking a supplement in the form of an NAD+ precursor can be more effective. Research on both humans and animals supports the various health benefits of regular NR intake. Bevivo Elevate is based on NR as its main component.

Should You Try This?
Yes, we believe so. Science has shown that NAD+ precursors like NR can increase NAD+ levels, and higher NAD+ levels are associated with healthier aging. Our product, Bevivo Elevate, contains a unique NR-based formula, along with other ingredients included to nourish your cells. By targeting aging where it starts—in your cells—you set yourself up for aging with “style.”
