Trying a 600mg nmn daily: my 8‑week energy and skin log

Posted by hank_m in Longevity & Anti-Aging - 2 points, 1 comments.

I started this cycle at the end of last month, 600 mg of nmn every morning before coffee, and have been keeping a simple log. I woke up an hour earlier than usual, no pounding headache, and the energy during my run at 6 pm stayed higher than the past few weeks. I did notice a mild nausea the first couple of days but it faded after the second week.

Sleep has been steadier, i used to wake every two hours, now it's mostly 6‑7 hrs of uninterrupted rest. Skin feels less dry; the fine lines under my eyes look a touch softer in the mirror. I haven’t done any bloodwork yet, but i plan a quick lipid panel next week to see if there’s any metabolic shift.

I’m not claiming this is a cure, just a personal experiment that fits within the typical daily dose range in the research notes. For anyone else trying nmn, keep a short diary, note any GI upset, and talk to a professional if you’re on medication or have health concerns.

• aspiring_trailrun: That’s a solid log. I’ve been on 500 mg NMN for a year now. I took it before breakfast, not coffee, and kept a small diary too. The mild nausea you saw is common – some people find it easier if they split the dose 250 mg in the morning and Diz. My sleep steadied after about a month, though I still woke a bit early, which I think was more caffeine habit than NMN. Have you had a chance to look at the lipid panel yet? It’d be interesting to see if the metabolic shift you sense shows up in the numb
