If NAD+ boosting supplement NMN (FAQs and Anecdotes) is permanently banned, when can consumers anticipate the arrival of NMN the drug? Dr. David Sinclair shared the following in a recent podcast interview with Dr. Peter H. Diamandis:

At the 2:05 Mark of the YouTube Video embedded below:

HOST:

“Why is it taking so freaking long to have meaningful longevity therapies come to market? I feel like we’re not making any meaningful headway and we’re stuck taking supplements that give us 5-10 years if we’re lucky. Where are the breakthroughs? When are they coming?

DR. Sinclair:

“Well, some of them are already here, in my view.

We’ve got some drugs already, metformin, rapamycin, that I strongly believe can slow down aspects of Aging.

So, we already have some technologies, not evenly distributed — it’s not available to everybody because most doctors are unaware or unwilling to prescribe these medicines to people who are healthy.

But the data looks good.

Now, what about the new medicines that are in development?

Well, one of them that I’m developing — actually, a few of them at Metro Biotech, a spin out from my lab from 10 years ago — is pretty advanced.

We’re actually in Phase 2 studies.

We’ve had some positive data.

We’re looking to publish now.

We’ve written up the manuscript.

And, so, that is a a study and a company that looks at NAD boosters for pharmaceutical use for diseases of aging.

And, that one, if all that all goes well, it’s probably two to three years away.

So that’s the good news…”
