Why you should avoid buying NMN Supplement on Amazon

why you should avoid buying nmn on amazon

Are you considering adding NMN supplements to your health regimen? Before you make a purchase on Amazon, there are a few important things to consider to ensure you’re getting the best quality product.

While Amazon partners with FBA sellers and efficiently handles fulfillment and storage in their warehouses, the nature of NMN supplements requires careful attention to quality and authenticity. Unfortunately, studies have shown that several companies sell adulterated NMN products, making it challenging to find a reliable option.

Amazon does not provide specific information on how long the supplements are stored or the conditions they are kept in. This can affect the overall efficacy of the NMN supplements you receive.

By choosing trusted sources that focus on quality and transparency, you can ensure you’re getting the best NMN supplement to support your health and wellness goals.

The reality of NMN supplements available on Amazon

To make consumers aware of the reality behind any NMN supplement Amazon lists, a dietary company, conducted a study on 22 NMN Amazon products. Surprisingly, the results were not in favor of consumers.

Only three samples out of 22 contained NMN as per claim. 23% of products, i.e., five samples, had around 88 – 99% of claimed NMN content. About 14 samples (64%) had less than 1% of NMN content, while 3 samples contributing to 14% of the total samples tested had no NMN content. This reveals that almost 78% of NMN supplements Amazon sells do not contain the correct dose of NMN and can therefore impart no health benefits.

Another study conducted by Effepharm in collaboration with ProHealth Longevity revealed similar results. Almost 50% of NMN products had no NMN content, while some were only about 80% pure.

Reasons why you shouldn’t buy NMN on Amazon

  1. You should avoid buying NMN supplements listed on Amazon because there is no guarantee of the product’s purity and effectiveness. Studies have shown that several companies sell adulterated products, making it difficult to find a reliable one. While third-party testing could help ensure quality, it’s not a feasible option for every buyer.
  2. When purchasing NMN supplements from FBA sellers on Amazon, it’s important to note that these sellers are Amazon partners who rely on Amazon to handle fulfillment and storage in their warehouses. However, it’s worth considering that NMN supplements require refrigeration to maintain their quality, as highlighted by David Sinclair in an interview. Since Amazon’s warehouses do not provide refrigeration for FBA sellers, the supplements may not be kept cool until they arrive at your doorstep.
  3. There is no way to contact the sellers if you have any queries, as many sellers do not even have a website.
  4. There is no scarcity of fraudulent companies on Amazon that display fake certificates of analysis to lure customers into buying their products.

New 2024 study highlights more issues with NMN Supplements

Past research indicated that many NMN supplements sold on Amazon do not contain the promised amount of NMN. This is a big concern for those hoping to benefit from NMN’s potential anti-aging properties.

Recent Findings: more discrepancies

In June 2024, a study published in GeroScience tested 18 NMN and 5 Urolithin A supplements. Using advanced testing methods, researchers discovered significant differences between the labeled and actual NMN content. The discrepancies ranged from -100% to +28.6%, meaning some products contained no detectable NMN, while others had much less than advertised.

What this means for you

These findings highlight the need for caution when purchasing NMN supplements. Not all products are created equal, and some may not provide the health benefits you’re looking for due to insufficient or absent NMN content. To ensure you get a quality product, it’s important to choose trusted sources that prioritize transparency and quality control.

What you can do instead

The above discussion doesn’t mean you cannot find genuine NMN on Amazon. But it is best to examine further than rely on an NMN Amazon page. Find a company that has an official website. See if you can find the certificate of analysis and check the details. A genuine company will respond to questions you may have. Furthermore, calculate the average price of NMN per gram by studying products in the market. A product with a low price may not be at par with standards.

NMN is a health supplement, and you should not take a chance on your health. So, be vigilant and make sure you buy it from a reliable source.
