Multi-compound protocol

Cellular energy, mitochondrial and longevity protocol

Mitochondrial biogenesis, cellular NAD+ restoration, metabolic flexibility, and physical endurance amplification.

For laboratory research use only. Material is supplied as a research reference standard and is not approved by Health Canada. This protocol is reference information compiled from published literature and supplier documentation, not medical advice. Anyone with a health condition or on medication should speak to a physician first.

Phases

  1. 01

    NAD+ schedule

    • 50 mg to 100 mg subcutaneous or intramuscular, 3 times weekly, for 6 weeks
  2. 02

    MOTS-c schedule

    • 5.0 mg subcutaneous twice weekly for 4 weeks, 1 to 2 hours before exercise
  3. 03

    Repeat cycle

    • Run the protocol 2 to 3 times per year.

Operational notes

  • Inject NAD+ slowly. Rapid delivery is associated with transient flushing or chest tightness that resolves in 10 to 15 minutes.
  • MOTS-c is stated to work synergistically with high-intensity or resistance training.

Reconstitution

Concentrations depend on the vial size you received, so work them out per compound rather than from a generic chart. Each product's protocol page carries a table computed for the size we ship.

  1. 1Wipe rubber stoppers with 70% isopropyl alcohol prep pads before puncture.
  2. 2Direct bacteriostatic water down the inside glass wall of the vial. Never squirt it directly onto the lyophilized powder.
  3. 3Swirl or roll the vial gently between the palms until dissolved. Do not shake vigorously.
  4. 4Store reconstituted material refrigerated at 2 C to 8 C, protected from direct light.
