NAD+ + MOTS-c + 5-Amino-1MQ dosage and reconstitution
An NAD+ shot with MOTS-c and 5-Amino-1MQ riding along. Energy you can feel from the NAD+; the other two are a fixed-ratio experiment.
Staying safe
Things people sometimes notice
- Flushing, warmth or pressure in the chest if you inject fast
- Nausea or stomach cramps during or just after the shot
- A sore, raised spot from the volume
- Headache or tiredness later the same day
Stop and get help if (trouble breathing or swelling: call 911)
- Chest tightness or palpitations that do not settle when you slow the injection
- Shaky, sweaty or lightheaded spells between meals, which can be low blood sugar
- Signs of an allergic reaction
Talk to your doctor first, especially if
- You take insulin or other blood-sugar medicines; MOTS-c lowers glucose in animal studies
- You have a heart rhythm problem or low blood pressure, since the NAD+ flush drops pressure briefly
- You have liver or kidney disease
- You are pregnant, nursing or manage a health condition
Mixing it
Mix it the NAD+ way: 1 ml of bacteriostatic water per 100 mg, so 1.2 ml for the 120 mg vial gives 100 mg/ml total. A 60 mg standard dose is 60 units; the full vial is 120 units, so use a 1 ml syringe or split it. Inject slowly.
Let the vial reach room temperature and wipe the top with an alcohol swab.
Add 1.2 ml of bacteriostatic water slowly. NAD+ dissolves with some swirling; do not shake.
Draw 30 units for a gentle 30 mg dose or 60 units for 60 mg.
Inject subcutaneously over a minute or more; going fast brings on the flush, nausea and cramping.
Store in the fridge and use within about 2 weeks; this vial is two to four doses, not a month.
