Even a 1.5h evening nap, energy drink and pre-workout (has caffeine) could not keep me awake. I was extremely exhausted and ready to fall asleep by midnight. Was a rough nightout lmao.

Another day I slept 7 sleep cycles instead of 5, or about 10.5h.

 

I take it in the afternoon, Resv mixed into protein shake (seems to help absorption) and NMN capsule + water.

 

Has anyone else experienced such extreme tiredness from this combo? I am unsure which one causes it.

 

I read that NMN is supposed to sort of drain energy, but from experience I only ever avoided taking Resv when I was already somehow tired or had muscle soreness / planned to workout. Edit: Just recalled going to the gym after as well and feeling noticeably weaker.

 

I've also often read people getting MORE energy from NMN, so I'm confused. I am 31y/o.

I don't think I noticed anything either way, more or less energy that is. Especially not from this combo. I only took it with reserv. and fisetin for about a year, noticed literally nothing at any point. I may have slept better but I cannot say it was solely due to the supplement. I did not notice increased energy or stamina either. But I was in my early forties and female, and didn't take the other things like pre-workout. I do drink a lot of coffee and never got enough animal protein, only vegetarian kinds mostly. So it's hard to compare. The only way for YOU to know imo is to do a strict compare and contrast with at least a month on, then off. If you notice it keeps happening, and you get extra tired, that'd be interesting to find out why. I have only ever gotten directly tired from excess GABA, valerian (in large quantity), or after a niacin flush dying down. You're right I only hear about people getting "energy"  from this combo. Because that's why I took it and why I was so disappointed when there was literally nothing from it.
