DOING FDA’S DIRTY WORK: AMAZON PULLS POPULAR SUPPLEMENT SO BIG PHARMA CAN PROFIT

Amazon—the vast global internet enterprise that single-handedly shuttered countless smaller retailers—is putting the interests of big pharma ahead of the health and well-being of its customers. In a move that surely pleases the FDA and pharmaceutical companies, Amazon decided last month to no longer sell nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN), a molecule naturally occurring in all life forms and vital in longevity. On the cutting edge of lifespan research, Amazon’s decision to remove NMN products is unrelated to safety issues. Instead, it hinges on a recent FDA decision announcing that because NMN is under investigation by big pharma as a potential new drug, it can no longer be marketed as a supplement. With the FDA’s corruption in full view thanks to COVID, this isn’t the first time the agency has allowed pharmaceutical giants to turn natural ingredients into profitable drugs while banning the affordable supplement version.
I just bought some NMN last month because there was an article on this thread that some lady used it to cure a critical case of covid. I got it from iHerb.com - Vitamins, Supplements & Natural Health Products and looks like they still have this product but not the brand I purchased. The brand I bought is available at MAAC10 Products Store. I took NMN for a month and then bought Life Extension NAD+. I really like these product because they give you a lot of energy and seem to be really good for the skin. Looks like NMN is still available on Amazon but who knows how long if the FDA is making its moves. The standard dose on the bottles is small. Only 125mg for the NMN and 300mg on the NAD+. My research showed that somewhere around 1000 mg a day is optimal but that will end up being expensive.
I’m at the pro-Trump protest put on by the NY Young Republicans Club. Not a joke, there are more reporters here than Trump supporters.
