The Essence of NMN
Nicotinamide Mononucleotide
NMN has emerged as one of the most discussed molecules in longevity insights — attracting sustained research attention over the past decade. This guide explores what it is, why it matters, and how the Codeage NMN collection is formulated around it.
Pillar Overview
Cellular Longevity
The Longevity Code
One molecule. A decade of growing research.
Nicotinamide mononucleotide — NMN — is a compound found in trace amounts in certain foods, and a subject of growing interest within longevity research. Over the past decade, it has attracted sustained attention from researchers across multiple institutions.
Codeage has built an entire collection around NMN — three distinct formulas, each designed to meet a different approach to daily NMN supplementation.
Understanding NMN
Four angles on a single molecule.
NMN is not a new discovery — it is a compound the body already knows. What is new is the depth of scientific inquiry into what it does, how it behaves as a supplement, and what role it may play in the broader context of healthy aging.
What It Is
A nucleotide derived from ribose and nicotinamide.
NMN belongs to the family of nucleotides — molecules that serve as structural components in a wide range of biological processes. It is found in small amounts in certain foods including edamame, broccoli, avocado, and cucumber. As a supplement, it is delivered in concentrated form.
The NAD+ Connection
A precursor to NAD+.
NMN is one of the most direct precursors to NAD+ — nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide — a coenzyme present in every cell and central to cellular energy metabolism. Research into the relationship between NMN and NAD+ has been a primary driver of scientific interest in this molecule.
The Research Landscape
A subject of growing research.
NMN has attracted sustained attention from researchers across multiple institutions over the past decade. Published studies have explored how NMN behaves at the cellular level and its relationship to NAD+ biosynthesis, contributing to a growing body of literature that has positioned NMN as one of the more actively studied compounds in longevity research.
Form & Delivery
Stability and delivery are part of the formulation story.
NMN is a sensitive molecule, and how it is formulated matters. The Codeage collection pairs NMN with liposomal delivery — a phospholipid-based delivery approach using non-GMO sunflower lecithin that has been applied consistently across the collection.
Formula Architecture
What surrounds the NMN matters.
NMN is the centerpiece of this collection. But the formulation decisions around it — what is paired with it, in what form, and why — define what makes each product in the collection distinct. Four ingredient pairings illustrate the thinking.
Polyphenol Pairing
Trans-Resveratrol
Trans-resveratrol — sourced from Japanese knotweed — is the biologically active form of resveratrol, a polyphenol found in grape skin and certain plant roots. Its pairing with NMN across the Platinum formula reflects a formulation logic rooted in the interest surrounding both compounds.
Multivitamin · Vitamins
Vitamin D3 + K2
Vitamin D3 and K2 are included together in the NMN Multivitamin formula — a pairing that reflects the established formulation logic of how these two vitamins interact within the same biochemical environment. Their presence within the Multivitamin's broader vitamin spectrum makes it a meaningful all-in-one daily formula alongside NMN.
Botanical Layer
Quercetin
Quercetin, sourced from the Japanese sophora flower, is a flavonoid included in the NMN Platinum formula alongside resveratrol. Its place in the formula reflects the broader botanical logic of building a complementary layer around the NMN core.
Antioxidant Layer
Alpha Lipoic Acid
Alpha lipoic acid is a compound found in the NMN Multivitamin formula, where it forms part of the broader supporting layer alongside TMG betaine and pantothenic acid. Its inclusion reflects the Multivitamin formula's intent to go beyond NMN alone — pairing the precursor with a wider spectrum of daily nutritional support.

The NMN Collection
Three formulas. One commitment to NMN.
Codeage offers three distinct NMN formulas — each designed around a different context of use and format. The same precursor science and liposomal delivery approach runs through all three. The formula architecture differs by intent.
