SS-31 and Mots-c Protocol

[bikerchick]

Quick few questions for those with more knowledge and experience on these two.

I am looking for the energy benefits of this protocol, primarily.

In the attached picture and focusing on the Mots-C and Humanin protocol section (I will not be doing the Humanin portion, just the ss-31 and Mots-C). I have a few questions.

1. When it says 2 months of SS-31 - does this mean do two cycles of one of the above listed SS-31 dosing of 4mg per day for 10 -20 days or so 4mg per day for 2 full months?

2. The next instruction says, after one month start Mots-C....does that mean after you complete the 2 full months or cycles of SS-31 wait one month and then start Mots-C? Or does it mean after one month of the 2 month SS-31 dosing start Mots-C dosing (essentially taking ss-31 and Mots-C at the same time for one month)?

3. The Mots-C dosing would be 5mg 3x a week for 4 weeks and then 5mg weekly for 4 weeks, correct? Since not doing Humanin I continue with Mots-C 5mg once a week for an additional month then stop for a month and restart the protocol?

Any clarity/feedback on my questions would be appreciated. Thanks

There should be overlap, so
1 month ss-31
1 month ss-31 and mots
1 month mots

That's what some recommend anyway

Thank you, I wasn't sure if there was overlap or not.

Is it better to inject motsc SQ or IM? My injection site really hurts following SQ administration of motsc.

SQ is how I do it and Mots does have a bit of a bite to it. It doesn't sting while I'm injecting but a couple minutes after the injection for about 20 to 30 minutes it is stinging but then goes away. Nothing too bad overall.

I've been reading/researching and will be starting the ss31/mots and then NAD+ protocol soon, and what I've seen elsewhere, but also here, is that some are finding starting ss31 at 4mg is too high for them. And they start lower and titrate up, some get to 4mg, some stay at 3mg or lower. Also there is anecdotal evidence that I've read that many do well and get all the same benefits dosing at 500mcg or 1mg. Personally, I'll be starting lower to see how it feels.

I started at .5 and titrated up to 4mg over about two weeks.

Interesting. What are the people who say 4mg is too much experiencing? Bad side effects?

For me, nothing bad, just a lack of being able to focus. I started low (like I do with all new peps) at .5, then titrated up daily. The below titration is what felt ok to me. YMMV.

I will probably start at 2mg and titrate up faster for my second round which I plan to start soon.
