Energy is the currency of life. It’s the spice of existence.
If you have lots of energy, you feel better, can get so many more things done, and can make the most out of life.
At NOVOS, we want your energy levels to be optimal. Various substances in NOVOS products Core and Boost improve energy metabolism:
1. Calcium alpha-ketoglutarate
Alpha-ketoglutarate (AKG) is a substance that occurs naturally in our bodies.
AKG is fuel for our mitochondria, the power plants of our cells. Alpha-ketoglutarate has been used by elite athletes and bodybuilders to provide more energy.
Interestingly, alpha-ketoglutarate has also been shown to extend lifespan and health span in various organisms (R,R,R,R,R,R,R).

2. Magnesium + malate
Malate occurs naturally in our bodies and is an important fuel for our mitochondria, the power plants of our cells. Malate improves energy levels.
Magnesium is a mineral that helps hundreds of proteins (enzymes) in our bodies to carry out their tasks properly.
Many people are deficient in magnesium, making them feel more tired and less relaxed. Extra magnesium improves energy levels and can help you to feel more relaxed and focused.
Besides magnesium’s positive effect on energy levels, magnesium also helps your body to age in a healthier, slower way, for example by stabilizing our DNA (and thus protecting it), helping proteins to repair and maintain our cells better, and in many other ways.

3. Rhodiola rosea
This fascinating herb grows in the northern parts of Europe and Asia and has been used for centuries to improve energy levels, both mentally and physically.
Rhodiola can make you feel more energized and improves concentration and memory (R,R,R).
Specific substances in rhodiola, like salidroside, have shown nerve and brain cells to regenerate themselves better (R,R,R).
Rhodiola also extends lifespan in many organisms (R,R,R,R).

4. Nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN)
NMN (nicotinamide mononucleotide) is a substance that occurs naturally in our bodies.
However, during aging, NMN levels decline.
Intake of NMN can make you feel more energized. Often, you have to take at least 300 to 400 mg of NMN to feel a boost in energy.
NMN has also been associated with the reduction of many aging symptoms in scientific studies (R,R,R,R).
At NOVOS, we sell NMN separately as NOVOS Boost.
NOVOS Core does not contain NMN, because of its price. However, if you’d like the best longevity solution that money can buy, add NOVOS Boost (NMN) to NOVOS Core to achieve a maximum effect on your health, energy levels and on aging.

5. Vitamin C
Vitamin C can improve energy levels.
Many people know vitamin C as an antioxidant, but vitamin C has so many other effects on the body.
For example, it can improve the functioning of the power plants of our cells, our mitochondria.
We didn’t add vitamin C to improve energy levels though. We also added vitamin C because it works synergistically with alpha-ketoglutarate, a substance that can slow down aging and increase longevity and health span.
