NMN has become a major trend in the health supplement market, and many people want to buy a few hundred dollars worth of NMN to test the waters. However, buying NMN solely based on price could be a waste of money! You might think you're getting a bargain, but it could actually be overpriced! A discerning buyer will pay attention to these five hidden secrets on the packaging:
1. [Can you tell the authenticity by looking at the ingredients? 】
Fake NMN does exist on the market! For example, some brands misrepresent Vitamin B3 as its derivative—NMN; others claim their fruit and vegetable extracts contain NMN to mislead consumers, when in reality they contain very little or no NMN. Therefore, to identify genuine NMN, you must check if the ingredients list includes β-nicotinamide mononucleotide/β-nicotinamide mononucleotide/β-NMN.
- [Does the price depend on the portion size?]
Studies indicate that a daily intake of 250-500mg of NMN is necessary to achieve anti-aging effects. However, some affordable NMN products contain only about 100mg per capsule, meaning you would need to take 3 capsules a day. This means that the total amount consumed is the same, making each capsule more expensive.
- [They have the place of origin, but no source of raw materials?]
A few brands claim their products are manufactured in foreign factories, yet they use cheap raw materials produced in mainland China. To further reduce costs, they produce semi-finished products domestically and then ship them to Hong Kong or overseas for final processing. Some even only bottle the product in Hong Kong and then claim it's made in Hong Kong or the USA, which is quite misleading. This type of NMN costs 10 times less than regular NMN, but its selling price is only 2-3 times lower, making its cost-performance ratio extremely low.
- [Is the purity not listed on the packaging?]
While NMN purity of 99% or higher is certainly good, 100% purity offers even greater assurance. It's free of impurities, mercury, and pesticides, resulting in stronger absorption and greater safety. It also enhances stability, preventing product spoilage. Some brands use cheap and unverified raw materials, producing in large quantities in unsanitary and uncertified factories. Why would they list the source of their raw materials? You really need to be careful and thoroughly check everything before ingesting it, or you'll bear the consequences yourself!
- Is a combination of NMN and other amino acids better?
Are there products that claim to have the best single NMN formula?! What's the truth? Take chicken soup as an example. Besides chicken, you usually add lean meat or fish maw, and also ingredients like Chinese yam and goji berries to enhance its nourishing effects and nutritional value! Similarly, besides NMN itself, many brands add other precious ingredients with anti-aging properties, creating a synergistic effect and multiplying the anti-aging benefits! However, affordable NMN products, in order to save costs, use a lower-efficacy single formula instead, so you get what you pay for!
