Dr. Sinclair recently said he takes NMN instead of NR based on research he did that found NR did not work at all, while NMN increased the endurance in older mice such that they were able to run twice as far as those on placebo. He is referencing this research , but unfortunately, they did not publish the results they found with NR.  NMN has much stronger record of benefit to humans in clinical studies Over the last few years there have been several human clinical trials published with NR, while those with NMN have lagged behind, leading some people to conclude that NR is the “safer” bet. In 2021, that narrative was turned upside down, as 3 clinical studies were published with NMN. One was a safety trial only ( r ). The other 2 were successful in showing some benefit to humans ( r , r ). Although there have been more than 11 clinical trials now published with NR, nearly all have failed to show any benefit in humans. The one possible exception being this 2021 research showing a ...

How Can Telemedicine Help? Telemedicine (Matusitz and Breen, 2007) is useful when: - Patients live far away from medical facilities - Patients live in remote communities - Patients are housebound - Patients are easily stressed in a formal medical environment - Patients have difficulty finding transport to medical facilities - Patients are unable to deal with long waiting periods - Patients or doctors are at high risk of infection (e.g. lowered immunity, communicable diseases and drug-resistant infections such as MRSA/methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus) Telemedicine (Matusitz and Breen, 2007) can also: - Reduce the number of outpatient visits - Reduce the overall cost of healthcare - Reduce the risk of disease or parasites spreading - Make medical information sharing and education easier - Make healthcare more accessible to more people While doctors cannot conduct physical exams through telemedicine, it lets them take history and use visual cues to make a diagnosis. Role of Tel...
