10 Best NMN Supplements (2025 Review)

By
Image
NMN stands for nicotinamide mononucleotide and is a precursor to NAD+, or nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. NMN is the direct precursor of the essential molecule nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) and is considered a key component to increase NAD+ levels in cells. NAD+ is a critical molecule found in every cell of your body, but levels of NAD+ naturally fall with age, making it — and NMN, as a result — crucial. NMN is one of the most popular supplements in the anti aging community. The global Nicotinamide Mononucleotide (NMN) market was valued at US$ 98.5 million in 2019 and it is expected to reach US$ 296.5 million ( R ) by the end of 2026, growing at a CAGR (Compound Annual Growth Rate) of 7.3% during 2021-2026. The NAD story took off toward the end of 2013 with a  high-profile paper  by Harvard's David Sinclair and colleagues. Sinclair, recall, achieved fame in the mid-2000s for research on yeast and mice that suggested the red wine ing...

Whey protein is a popular dietary supplement that is derived from milk and is commonly used by athletes, bodybuilders, and health enthusiasts to support muscle growth and overall health.  It is a complete protein, meaning it contains all of the essential amino acids the body needs to function properly, and is quickly and easily absorbed by the body.  A comprehensive review using PubMed, a vast biomedical literature database with more than 35 million citations and abstracts, found that consuming whey protein may have several beneficial effects.

18 Best Supplements to Reduce Cytokine Storm: Advanced Guide

By
Image
As of May 2024, there are more than 4,000 early treatment studies  that have been published and shared with the whole world. New ones are being added every day.  This is a review of the literature, covering multiple observational studies, randomized controlled trials and references related to natural supplements and cytokine storm with more than 300 studies and references. We know that while a large percentage of the population only experiences mild to moderate symptoms of COVID-19 and won’t require hospitalization, others experience severe symptoms and complications, require hospitalization, or may even die.  It appears one of the differences between those who have a mild illness and severe illness is related to the body's ability to reduce the hyperimmune response that leads to a cytokine storm and the hyper-coagulability (tendency for blood clots) that often accompanies it. The cytokine storm may be one possible way to ex...

9 Best Milk Powder for 3-4 Years Old 2024

By
Image
Breastmilk is an ideal way to feed your child, but for many parents, full time breastfeeding may not be an option. For instance, babies may develop food intolerances or allergies. Formula-fed babies may show symptoms because of milk proteins or soy proteins in infant formula.  This is what formula milk is for, as a supplement to breastmilk if it is not available at the time. Choosing the right formula brand can be stressful as what goes into your baby can directly impact their health, especially if those formulas contain harmful ingredients. Toddler or “next step” formulas are developed for children 9 to 24 months of age. These milk-based formulas contain added iron, vitamin C, vitamin E, and zinc. They also contain DHA and AA and more calcium than standard infant formulas (but not significantly more than whole milk). Manufacturers' information describes toddler formula as “insurance” or “extra nutrition” for picky toddlers who may not eat a well-balanced diet of solids.  Feed...

If you are looking for the top 10 supplement brands in the world , you've come to the right place. When it comes to selecting the best supplements, label is the most significant aspect.

8 Top Trustworthy Supplement Brands (That You Should Use)

By
Image
By Nick Urban from Outliyr.com In true biohacker form, up until recently I started my day with a mountain of pills, powders, and capsules. That is legal dietary supplements, of course. One day I ran out of one product and bought a new brand. The product had the same dose but the capsule doubled in size. I investigated. To my horror, I found fillers, excipients, and plenty of other inactive ingredients. The first product didn’t have them, so surely the second cheaper brand didn’t need them either. It turns out that not all supplement brands or products are the same. Choosing reliable brands ensures that you receive a product with the actual active ingredients inside, no questionable fillers, and most importantly, no contaminants. In this post I will present the best supplement brands that meet the highest purity, safety, and trustworthiness standards: Certified by one of more regulatory agencies Vigorous safety testing Trusted by medical practitioners Minimal filler Products mostly made...

Dr. Zelenko's Z-Stack Vitamin Cocktail: Review 2024

By
Image
The  Zelenko COVID-19 Protocols  was developed by Dr Vladimir Zelenko. The protocol has as its centerpiece, but not exclusive piece, the combined use of Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) and Zinc as a means by which a person can both help to prevent or mitigate the contraction of  COVID-19 , or can actually treat the disease once it has been diagnosed.  A  retrospective study  analyzing Dr Zelenko's patient data was accepted for publication after a rigorous peer review process. The study finds that early intervention and treatment of high-risk patients with COVID-19 resulted in significantly fewer hospitalizations and deaths. The treatment consisting of zinc, low-dose hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), and azithromycin, is also referred to as "The Zelenko Protocol." Dr Zelenko has since updated his protocols to incorporate new evidence. He has since evolved his protocols to include a quercetin, zinc, vitamin D and C protocol for low-ris...
