• NMN works right away to increase performance and doesn't need to be loaded like creatine or beta alanine.

• NMN is converted into NAD+ which is an important molecule that promotes the process of glycolysis and the kreb's cycle, this means it increases the rate of energy production from our body's reserve of fats and glucose.

• This well designed study demonstrates that NMN can boost aerobic capacity performance metrics by up to 30% in trained athletes, this beats beta alanine by a long shot.

• NMN is also known for its anti-aging benefits. NAD+ levels decline rapidly with age, NAD+ levels can be reduced by up to 50% past the age of 30. NMN supplementation potently boosts NAD+ production and can increase insulin sensitivity, reverse mitochondrial dysfunction, and extend the lifespan in aging populations.

• Nicotinamide Mononucleotide(NMN)

  NMN is a naturally occurring nucleotide with great potential, it has been shown to improve aerobic exercise capacity, VO2 (rate of oxygen consumption) and Ventilatory Threshold in a dose dependent manner in the most recent trial on amateur runners.

ElevATP

ElevATP is a patented ingredient supported by several human trials in increasing performance and ATP production significantly.

• A randomized control trial demonstrated that a small dose of elevATP was able to increase systemic ATP by 20-70% 30-90min of supplementation in humans. 

• The benefits of elevATP can be seen right after supplementation and does not require a 'loading phase'.

• elevATP can support increased work capacity and power output, which is especially useful in improving cardiovascular fitness.

• elevATP is FDA approved and is not banned in any sporting organizations.

Sodium Nitrate

Sodium Nitrate is popular within the cyclist community and has been shown to be a positive ergogenic aid in aerobic and anaerobic exercise in humans. Supplementing with nitrates is an
effective way to increase nitric oxide production which leads to increased blood flow to the working tissues. Increasing tissue perfusion (blood flow) during exercise can help reduce the aerobic cost of exercise, leading to improved cardiovascular function
and better endurance during exercise. Here are some interesting trials which support the benefits of nitrates in endurance sports:

125mcg 5-Methylfolate (Vitamin B9) + 500mcg Methylcobalamin (Vitamin B12)

High doses of NMN (1000mg+) can cause increased homocysteine levels and decrease methyl donors in the body, which can lead to brain fog, cellular impairment in DNA replication and maintaining homeostasis in our organ systems.

5-methylfolate and methylcobalamin are both effective methyl donors which have been shown to replace the losses associated with NMN supplementation and attenuate the negative side effects of high dose/chronic use of all NAD+ precursors (including NMN).
