“Both received diabetes medications and general lifestyle advice, but one group also participated in a structured program that combined a high-protein diet with supervised moderate exercise (30 minutes daily, five times a week) for 12 months.”

“23% had NMN content just below the label claim or 88–99% of the label claim. 64% had NMN content below the method reporting limit or detection limit, indicating less than 1% of the claimed NMN was present. NMN was not detected in 14% of the products.”
