These two compounds are making waves in the world of health and longevity. Let's break it down and see what all the hype is about. The Basics: Our bodies use NMN, or nicotinamide mononucleotide, to create NAD+, short for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. This compound is found in every cell and is essential for energy metabolism, gene expression, and DNA repair. Plus, NAD+ might help prevent the shortening of telomeres, which could slow down the aging process. As we age, our NAD+ levels decline. Supplementing with NMN might boost these levels, promoting healthy aging and longevity. Lower NAD+ levels have been linked to quicker physical decline and the onset of age-related diseases, like Alzheimer’s. There are other NAD+ precursors like niacin and NR, but NMN is a direct precursor and can enhance our NAD+ levels ...

Keto Cheesecake in a Mug


Keto Mug Cheesecake for 1


2 heaping tablespoons cream cheese
2 heaping tablespoons Greek yogurt (or sour cream)
liquid stevia to taste (I used about 2 teaspoons)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (I have liquid stevia that is vanilla flavored, so I omitted this)
1 egg

Combine all ingredients except egg. Beat with a fork until smooth. Add egg and beat until smooth. Pour into buttered ramekin or mug. Microwave on high for approximately 2 minutes (or until egg is completely set).

Let sit a few minutes to cool. Pour onto a dessert plate and top as desired. I like to sprinkle some chopped sugar free chocolate on mine, or drizzle a little sugar-free chocolate syrup on it.
