NMN is a precursor to NAD+, a molecule playing crucial roles in various biological processes, including energy production and DNA repair. Declining NAD+ levels during aging have been associated with faltering organ function and metabolic problems, faster ageing, heart disease, metabolic disorders such as diabetes, neurodegenerative conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease, diabetes, cancer and other age-related diseases. However, restoring NAD+ with NMN may alleviate these issues. As such, people taking NMN are trying to capitalize on the prospect of age prevention with increasing NAD+.

In 2022, on an episode of the Kardashians, Hailey Bieber and Kendall Jenner had an NAD+ IV drip party where they received intravenous NAD+ infusions. Their names join the growing list of celebrities who use ways to increase NAD+, and whether they take the NAD+ precursor NMN remains an open possibility.

Along the same lines, the famous podcaster Joe Rogan said in one of his shows that he undergoes NAD+ IV drip therapy once a week. On another Joe Rogan podcast, celebrity neuroscientist Andrew Huberman confessed to using NMN after following Harvard Professor David Sinclair‘s NMN research.
