NMN reversing grey hair

[Shhhhitsmagic]

I've been dying my hair since the age of 17 to hide grey hairs and parts of my head are fully white now (in my early 40s). I'm never going to age gracefully and go grey, but im sick of dying my hair platinum blonde to hide the white roots.

So having been sucked in by the viva nmn marketing, I decided to give it a go. And I think it's actually working! I've been checking my parting and to my disbelief I have a load of black hairs sprouting through!

Has anyone else reversed their grey/white hair with NMN?

Hey, yeah it's viva NMN, 1 tablet a day. Sorry I posted a link earlier but it seems to have disappeared! I'll try again-

Just taken some better pics in daylight, this was white before! (Sorry for the close up of my scalp 😂)

I've been on it since the start of the year at a high dose. It doesn't turn your grey hair back to its original colour.

It might be encouraging new growth which is coming through in the original colour. I still have new greys coming through but also have new hair coming through which isn't grey.

It's expensive but don't expect miracles. It's prevention rather than cure.

Agree that the lengths won't change, but individual hairs can grow a different colour from the roots. I've had hairs in the past that were almost stripy brown/grey/brown (not that I've done anything about it).

That's an interesting read! It's crazy how stress and other factors can affect your hair colour.

I have been taking it too. I'm not grey enough yet to notice a difference in hair colour, but my energy levels are up and I definitely feel less 'creaky'

I was taking NMN but I stopped due to it exacerbating cancer in mice in trials. It made me too scared to take it again.

It's tricky to know for sure isn't it?
From what I've read, it should be avoided in individuals who already have cancer as it fuels cell growth (including existing tumour cells). But I can't find any evidence of it being unsafe in healthy indivuduals.

Yes but if the body destroys cancer within itself on a daily basis (disclaimer: I read that somewhere and don’t even have GCSE Science) then isn’t it a massive risk? I watched my younger sister die of cancer two years ago. Any risk seems like too much.

Any fucking around with the naturally occurring levels of any element in the body is always going to carry risk. Whether that is something like NMN which is a new thing to try to boost and so there are relatively few long term studies on the artificial inflation of the levels in our bodies or whether its something as extensively tested as HRT which can have side effects. Or weight loss injections which are pretty much new territory but we already know they cause hair loss, problems with bone density and problems with muscles (but people still take them because they regard the weight loss as important enough to override that). The reality is that our bodies are supposed to age. We are all trying to fight that.

Same. I sort of want to start taking it again because I did feel better and stronger but like you I'm too nervous. It seems somes studies show it helps protect against some cancers and others show it helps cancers grow. It seems a bit of a risk to me

I take it and it’s tops the afternoon crash where I used to feel tired mid afternoon.
it’s very subtle but definitely helping.
I haven’t noticed anything else from it though.
