It’s easy to take the small things in life for granted – like waking up to a fully charged phone to start the day. It has become almost second nature that we ensure our phones are plugged into the charger before going to bed every night. But can we say the same about the systems that power our bodies?
Unlike mobile devices that use batteries, the human body gets its energy from energy factories called mitochondria in our cells. These energy factories use a molecule called NAD+ to act as fuel for important daily processes such as converting food to energy, maintaining DNA and immune function.
NMN has been popular in the biohacking community for some time including the well-known Professor of Genetics at Harvard University, David Sinclair. Many people choose to supplement NMN because while it occurs in nature, foods only contain very small quantities of NMN, making it difficult to get an efficacious amount from diet alone. While there are over 1300 supporting studies for NMN on Pubmed, the quality and purity of NMN on the market varies drastically, and there is a lack of transparency about these important factors when it comes to NMN supplements internationally.
NMN has exploded in popularity over the last three years. It’s well recognised for its ability to improve energy and its anti-aging benefits.
There are so many NMN supplements on the market that make strong claims, however, many contain fillers, lack purity, and the dosages are often too low to have the efficacy they claim.
SRW’s NMN is formulated by world renowned scientists and produced in New Zealand where quality standards are of the highest in the world. SRW’s NMN contains proven beneficial dosages and starts working from the first dose. Customers typically report feeling noticeable results within 1-3 months.

“At SRW, we never compromise on the quality of our ingredients. Our product contains a high dose of 500mg per serve at an optimal purity of over 99.5%. NMN enters directly into the cell through a recently discovered transporter, where it is converted to NAD+ in one step.”
NAD+ is the most abundant molecule in the body after water and declines with age. In fact, by the age of 40, NAD+ levels will have typically fallen to half of what they were as a teenager.¹
NAD+ fuels your mitochondria which are your cellular power stations and create chemical energy.
NAD+ repairs damage that can happen to cells naturally every day.
A recent analysis of 22 of the leading NMN products showed that 64% contained only 1% of the NMN content claimed on the label. Astonishingly, NMN was not even detected in 14% of the products tested.² SRW’s NMN is third party lab tested at >99.5% purity level. It also undergoes a special preparation method which increases its stability and density. This is a patented process which makes the NMN more resilient to environmental degradation.
NMN targets the causes of feeling “old” and worn out by acting as the building block needed for NAD+ to fuel the mitochondria and produce energy. These feelings can slowly increase over time - you may not even realise that it’s possible to wake up without feeling sore and tired until you start taking NMN.
If you lead a full but physically or mentally demanding life and you feel like you’ve got nothing left in the tank by the end of the day, NMN can provide the support you need. NMN is not a stimulant like caffeine or sugar that only leads to a big crash. Far from being another “energy boosting” supplement, NMN is supported by sound scientific evidence – with 22 clinical trials across a range of institutes assessing NMN for its ability to support cellular health and lifespan. In fact, SRW’s NMN 500mg is the same as the NMN being used in trials.

“NAD+ is an energy-providing molecule found in every cell of the body. It is used to metabolize, build new cells, defend against free radicals, and send signals inside the cell. Regular supplementation with NMN supports healthy levels of NAD+”
With over 10 years’ experience leading research at various institutions, Dr. Yu holds several patents including an NMN preparation method. He is passionate about helping humans age better through the ingredient NMN.
