• Derived from vitamins, 1-MNA is a natural and physiological substance.
  • Known to be safe and well-tolerated.
  • Renowned for its anti-inflammatory and anti-atherosclerotic qualities.
  • Lowers levels of inflammatory markers.
  • Essential for maintaining vascular endothelial function and stimulating synthesis of prostacyclin (PGI2).
  • Bolsters the secretory function of the vascular endothelium, thereby safeguarding against dysfunction.
  • Minimizes the risk of blood clot formation and inflammation via PGI2 synthesis.
  • Enhances the stability of sirtuins (Sirt1), which in certain biological models has been associated with extended lifespan.
  • Considered a groundbreaking molecule with potent anti-inflammatory and anti-atherosclerotic effects.
  • Leading research institutions suggest 1-MNA may extend human lifespan

In humans, 1-MNA is predominantly produced in the liver during niacin metabolism. This production stems from the enzymatic breakdown of nicotinamide, facilitated by nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) (as referenced by Felsted and Chaykin, 1967; Pissios, 2017). Once synthesized, 1-MNA converts into pyridones: 2-PYR and 4-PYR. Although both are generated, 2-PYR is the principal metabolite of 1-MNA in humans, as noted by Sugihara et al., 2005.
