Beta-nicotinamide mononucleotide (ß-NMN) is a nucleotide derived from ribose and nicotinamide. It is a derivative of niacin (vitamin B3) and can be used by human enzymes to synthesize NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide). NAD+ plays an essential role in various metabolic pathways and is usually used there as an oxidizing agent. Particularly relevant is its high-energy form, NADH, which is required for the generation of ATP. Since ß-NMN is a cofactor in processes in the mitochondria, for sirtuins (an enzyme group) and for PARP – an enzyme involved in the repair of DNA fractions – it has been investigated in various studies for its potential neuroprotective effect¹ and anti-aging effect². In the diet, ß-NMN is mainly found in fruits and vegetables such as. broccoli, white cabbage, cucumbers and avocados.
Ascorbic acid is an organic acid that can be present in four different forms. However, of these forms, only L-ascorbic acid is biologically active. The L-ascorbic acid and its derivatives with the same effect are summarized under the name vitamin C. Due to the easy oxidizability of vitamin C, it acts in the organism as an antioxidant or as a radical scavenger. In addition, it is an essential coenzyme in the process of biosynthesis of collagen. Since collagen occurs mainly in connective tissue, but also in practically all other human and animal cells, scurvy can occur with a lack of vitamin C, whereby on the one hand the connective tissue is affected and on the other hand symptoms such as exhaustion and fatigue can occur.
In the diet, vitamin C is mainly found in fruits and vegetables. Especially citrus fruits such as oranges, lemons and grapefruits usually contain a lot of vitamin C. In vegetables, especially kale, red cabbage, white cabbage and pickled cabbage have a high vitamin C content.
