Mimio Biomimetic Review: Unlock The Longevity Benefits Of Fasting*

Fasting is often an essential part of the longevity toolkit. The practice supports metabolic health and boosts healthspan1—but it requires dedication.

Autophagy2, or when damaged cells are cleared out and replaced with healthy new ones, only occurs in the third stage of fasting i.e. 18 to 48 hours without food. And while I'll do a lot to promote my own longevity, I also know that I'm not my best self when I'm hungry.

That's where Mimio's Biomimetic Cell Care comes into play. The revolutionary supplement mimics fasting at a cellular level (even when taken with food) so you can reap the rewards of fasting without skipping meals.

Like I mentioned, Mimio is not your typical supplement brand. Instead of creating single-ingredient formulas, the biotech company is paving the way for biomimetic supplements or formulas that represent the biological complexity of the body.

In a fasted state, more than 300 of the body's 150,000 metabolites are upregulated or increased—which unleashes the many aforementioned benefits of fasting. Of these hundreds of metabolites, just 24 are bioactive i.e. can be absorbed and utilized by the body.

Mimio's team then narrowed down the list of potential metabolites for Mimio's Biomimetic Cell Care to just four: nicotinamide, spermidine, oleoylethanolamide (OEA), and ultra micronized palmitoylethanolamide (PEA).

Each metabolite activates a different fasting pathway—and have a slightly different impact on the body.

Spermidine

A polyamine, spermidine plays a huge role in cell health; it not only encourages mitochondrial health but also supports autophagy.* Unfortunately, natural spermidine levels decrease as you age, which can impact aging.

What it regulates: Regulates mitophagy, cellular inflammatory signals, and growth pathways

Nicotinamide

NAD+ or nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide is a coenzyme found in all living cells that helps with energy metabolism and maintaining proper cell function—and it also decreases as you age3. Low NAD+ levels can impair mitochondrial function and lead to age-related health concerns4.*

Unfortunately, supplementing with the NAD+ is not the most efficient way to boost your levels. The coenzyme is a large molecule, which means your body make take it apart and transport it piece-by-piece5 into the cell.

Instead it's smarter to take a building block of NAD+, such as nicotinamide. This help naturally boosts your body's NAD+ levels and also lets you take advantage of other perks of the metabolite, including heart, muscle, and skin health.*

What it regulates: A precursor to NAD+ that activates metabolic efficiency pathways

Oleoylethanolamide (OEA)

Mimio calls OEA a "cellular metabolic supercharger." The metabolite has been clinically shown to help control hunger and cravings, as well as supporting metabolic health.*

If you're someone who still wants to fast, this metabolite is a great addition to further boost the benefits of a fasted state.*

What it regulates: Cellular metabolism

Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA)

Dealing with stress? PEA helps cells to rest, relax, and recover–in turn supporting mood, sleep, and recovery.*

When you incorporate Mimio's Biomimetic Cell Care into your routine, it can benefit your body in a few ways:

Recreating fasting on a cellular level

For those who simply can't get a handle on fasting, Mimio is a great way to unlock the benefits of fasting without going hungry.* Even when taken with a meal, the metabolites can activate fasting pathways.

Enhancing the benefits of fasting

Still want to fast? Mimio can be your cheat sheet. It acts a a fasting enhancer to boost the benefits of fasting by encouraging appetite control and energy.*

Support energy and recovery

As if you need another reason to be impressed by this longevity supplement, Mimio also has the clinical research to support its claim.

A 2023 study published in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found Mimio's biomimetic formula can extend lifespan in model organisms by 96%6.*

First things first, I should flag I've only been incorporating Mimio's longevity supplement into my routine for about four weeks.

Per the brand, it may take up to three months to experience the full benefits of Mimio—but I did start to see an impact on my mood early on.*

The seasonal change from summer to fall can be a drag on my both my energy levels and mood. But where I typically experience a seasonal slump, I've noticed my September is still filled with energy, and my emotions have feel extremely regulated.*
