Natural compound, called NMN, found in avocado, broccoli, cucumber, cabbage and edamame has remarkable anti-ageing effects in mice.
Older mice given NMN saw beneficial effects in bone density, muscles immune system, liver performance and eyesight.
Animals produce less NAD when they get older – was boosted by giving mice NMN in drinking water.
Human clinical trials are underway in Japan.
NAD might also give an energy boost to cancer cells – though no increase in mice trials.
High-grade NMN for human consumption is not commercially available at present.
