Regarding the new LIPO capsules, they are indeed time released over up to 24 hours. It's also rather dangerous as it suppresses breathing. In regards to Ambien, I agree it's highly addictive after even 1 or 2 nights. If the capsule is 24 hours timed release, it might mess up your biological clock, no? What's the half-life of the LIPO NMN capsules? Isn't NAD+ production in the body supposed to be in sync with Circadian Rhythms? So you would expect lower NAD+ level at night. Tried a natural sleep aid, and also sleep/get up at the same time everyday, now my sleep quality is better than ever. Horrible drug withdraw symptoms - complete loss of sleep for days. It made my insomnia much worse on the days without the pill. I took ambien (0.5-1 pill / night) for 3 weeks in May due to high stress from work. Let your body be the ultimate judge and pay attention to what it's telling you. Don't rock the boat by insisting your body take even more NAD+ just because you're stuck on the idea that you're a certain age, so therefore you must need to supplement X amount. Making enough NAD+ on your own is actually a good thing. If you're on a fairly low dose of NMN (as I am) and still have sleep issues, it means your body is probably already making decent amounts of NAD+ on it's own - something many people starting out on NMN don't think to consider. So my advice to anyone taking NAD+ boosters would be that they're great but only in conjunction with a good night's sleep.

Figure out how to make the changes necessary to get a full night's sleep naturally. I think these things are a crutch and can become a bad habit. I also don't believe in taking anything strong to help with sleep, such as ambien. In fact, if you were to regard sleep as a supplement it would be by far the most important one. I also have come to understand that getting enough sleep is as or more important than any supplement I can possibly take. I'm also very attuned to the quality of my sleep. I am now a stickler for going to bed and waking up at the same time every day. Best to monitor my dose and my sleep each day and make adjustments accordingly before it becomes an issue.ĭealing with this problem has produced at least some desirable changes.

Otherwise, I get into a situation where I'm losing sleep here and there for weeks, causing a big deficit to build up, with corresponding loss of energy and cognition. I have to back off, reset, and start again. In my case, lack of sleep directly coincides with my taking too much NMN. There's just not enough data to know for sure. Perhaps only a small percentage of people on NAD+ boosters have an issue. Here’s to persistence, to acceptance, and to mutual support.Personally, I don't think lack of sleep in relation to NAD+ boosters is addressed enough. And I slept fantastic! One of my best nights over the past 4 months. But eventually, after flitting back in and out for the next couple hours, it finally left. I told it, “did you notice how well we did today?” And positive things like that. I said “hi there, thanks for visiting,” and proceeded to have a conversation with it as it sat on the couch next to me. But, as Martin and others suggest, I lived my life and ended up having a decent day in spite of the brain fog and fatigue. The night before last was one of my worst, and I felt pretty cruddy yesterday. I know my anxiety is key, and I’ve been trying to “thank” it for keeping me safe. I’ve been struggling with an acute insomnia episode for about 3.5 months, and started CBT-i about 5 weeks ago, with roller coaster results! In the spirit of celebrating wins, I want to share a little story.
