Single oral administration of Nicotinamide Mononucleotide (NMN) up to 500 mg is safe and well-tolerated in healthy men, causing no significant adverse clinical symptoms or changes in vital signs.

If you are a healthy man between 40 and 60, taking a single dose of NMN (up to 500mg) appears safe in the short term, with no observed negative effects on vital signs, liver enzymes, or general well-being. This does not prove long-term benefits, but it suggests the supplement is well-tolerated at these doses.
