Looking to Buy NMN or NR?

Here’s what we’ve learned after 2 years of writing this site. Choosing an NAD+ boosting vitamin supplement is difficult. Do you take NMN (FAQs and Anecdotes) or NR (FAQs) (Anecdotes)? And once you decide between the two, which of the many sellers do you purchase from? We know that NMN is by far the more popular. But many red flags suggest caution. Scientists warn about it and many NMN sellers don’t sell what they say they do. This suggests that there’s no standard NMN product. Everyone is selling something different. It’s quite astonishing then that so many consumers choose to purchase and ingest NMN in large numbers. This commercial miracle is likely in large part due to the support of Harvard’s Dr. David Sinclair (though, to add to the confusion, he doesn’t tell you where he gets his NMN from and doesn’t endorse any specific NMN brand). So where does that leave potential consumers looking for guidance on which supplement to buy and where to buy it from? The following are the top 10 blog posts that readers of this site have found most useful in their quest for answers. Hopefully you’ll find them useful too:
