What is NMN?

NMN (Nicotinamide Mononucleotide) is a vitamin B3 derivative and a direct precursor to NAD+. NAD+ is crucial for energy metabolism, mitochondrial function, and recovery — precisely the processes you rely on during and after a workout. In human studies, NMN is investigated for safety and its ability to increase NAD+ levels in the blood, such as in a double-blind randomized trial (Frontiers in Nutrition) and in a recent RCT where NAD+ levels rose after 12 weeks of NMN intake (GeroScience).

NMN + TMG + GlyNAC: the smart “Workout Stack” for energy & recovery

Want to get more out of your workout without relying on a quick “pre-workout kick”? Then it’s smarter to support your foundation at the cellular level: NMN (NAD+), TMG (methylation), and GlyNAC (glutathione & recovery). This combination is often used as a complete workout stack: energy production + recovery + resilience.

1) NMN (NAD+) – energy production at the cellular level for your workout

During your workout, your muscles demand maximum ATP (energy). NAD+ plays a central role in this process. NMN is also being researched in a sports context; a study involving recreational runners examined NMN in combination with training and performance indicators (Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition (PDF)). As a baseline, you can start with NMN powder or capsules.

2) TMG – methylation support that logically complements NMN

TMG (trimethylglycine/betaine) provides methyl groups and is therefore often combined with NMN in a workout routine. Betaine/TMG has been studied in a sports context; a systematic review discusses the effects of chronic betaine supplementation on exercise performance (Journal of Sports Sciences (systematic review, PDF)). In practice: choose consistency (at least 3–4 weeks) so that you can fairly assess its impact on your workout and recovery.

3) GlyNAC – glutathione, oxidative balance & recovery after your workout

After a strenuous workout, everything revolves around recovery and oxidative balance. GlyNAC (glycine + N-acetylcysteine) is being researched as support for glutathione status and markers associated with recovery and physical function. In a placebo-controlled RCT involving older adults, effects on glutathione and related markers were described (The Journals of Gerontology: Series A). View GlyNAC primarily as recovery support, rather than a quick pre-workout stimulant.

How do you combine this around your workout?

• Morning / pre-workout (60–120 min): NMN + water
• Around your workout: focus on hydration and electrolytes (especially during sweating or heat) with, for example, O.R.S.
• Post-workout / evening: GlyNAC as recovery support
• Daily / base: TMG as methylation support (consistency & routine)

NMN experiences

Experiences with NMN vary per person, but many athletes use it as part of their routine surrounding a workout — often in combination with quality sleep, nutrition, and hydration. Research into sleep interventions for athletes emphasizes that sleep can have a direct influence on performance and recovery (Systematic Review, Sports Medicine – Open).

• Increased mental clarity during and after your workout
• Improved stamina
• Better sleep quality (essential for recovery)
• More balance in mood and focus

A sampling of customer reviews:

“Since using NMN, I feel brighter and more active, like I’m ten years younger.” – Lisa (41)

“My energy level through the day has become much more stable.” – Pieter (58)

Buying NMN – what to look out for?

If you wish to purchase NMN, quality is essential — especially when using it as part of your workout. Please note:

• Purity of the NMN powder or capsules (at least 99%)
• Independent lab tests
• Solubility (for powdered form) or proper coating for capsules

Our NMN supplements meet all these quality standards and contain only pure NMN, without fillers or unnecessary additives — ideal as a foundation for your workout routine.
