Our Story

I’m Terry Yang, and HealthspanX began not as a business idea, but as a deeply personal journey.

When my children were born — one in 2020 and twin girls in 2022 — I became a father again at 56. I felt profound gratitude, but also a responsibility unlike anything before. I wanted to remain strong, healthy, and youthful for as long as possible… to be present for every milestone of their lives, without ever becoming a burden to the people I love most.

That commitment led me to explore how to extend both lifespan and healthspan in a meaningful, science-based way.

Discovering NMN — The Turning Point

My research eventually led me to NMN (Nicotinamide Mononucleotide), a molecule known for supporting cellular energy and healthy aging. Out of curiosity, I purchased a bottle and began taking it — without expecting much.

At the time, I had been dealing with severe dry eyes for years. The pain was constant. Using a computer or phone was unbearable. I tried Western medicine, Chinese medicine, and multiple therapies, but none offered lasting relief.

Then something remarkable happened:

Within one week of taking NMN, my dry eyes disappeared.

I didn’t connect the dots at first. But when I stopped taking NMN and the symptoms quickly returned — only to vanish again after I resumed — the truth became undeniable: NMN had made a real difference.

Unexpected Improvements Beyond Dry Eyes

As I continued taking NMN, I noticed additional, meaningful improvements:

• My energy levels increased
• My mental clarity sharpened
• My sleep improved
• My motivation and mood lifted
• My immune system strengthened, and I rarely became sick — and when I did, symptoms were mild

These changes motivated me to study NMN even more deeply. I found research showing potential benefits across about 20 age-related conditions (see our NMN Benefit section), along with consistent lifespan extension in animal studies — which are difficult to replicate in humans due to our longer lifespans.

But I also uncovered troubling facts:

• Very few people truly understood NMN
• The market was filled with impure, mislabeled, or counterfeit products
• I myself had unknowingly purchased a more affordable brand that turned out to be fake

It became clear that this wasn’t just a personal breakthrough — it was a widespread problem for anyone seeking trustworthy, science-backed solutions for healthy aging.

From Personal Transformation to Mission

That was the moment I knew I needed to take action.

I wanted to provide accurate, science-based education on NMN and longevity — and make the purest, most effective NMN available to my loved ones and to anyone who wanted to stay healthy, youthful, and capable for as long as possible.

With over 20 years of sourcing and quality assurance experience as a corporate executive at a large U.S. publicly listed company, I knew how to find, test, and verify ingredients at the highest standards. So I left my corporate career and used that expertise to create HealthspanX.

Since the day I started taking NMN, something extraordinary happened:

I achieved a biological age 15 years younger than my chronological age (using the PhenoAge Clock developed by UCLA’s Dr. Morgan E. Levine 😊).

But even more importantly, I regained the health, strength, and stamina I once had in my younger years — while carrying the experience and wisdom I’ve gained over time.

This transformation became one of the greatest gifts of my life — and it gave me the confidence to start this company at an age when many people are planning for retirement.
