NAD+ 500

[SolidChick]

On my third pin of NAD+ 1000 (reconned and filtered with 5ml BAC into 5ml vial). 80mg dose(40units) 3x/week. Get a nice “woosh” upon injection, no pain/lump/ISR.

Do you do subq or IM?

Is everyone pinning IM or SQ?

SubQ

 

[latviantower]

I have to pin it IM. Originally tried SubQ 6 months or so and didn't feel much for some reason, though maybe I'll try that route again at some point just to double check.

SubQ = slower absorption so not surprised you get a bigger, faster rush doing NAD+ IM.

For any volume 1 ml or less, seems like consensus has trended to the POV that SubQ is preferred pin method. Even for AAS that were historically an automatic IM pin. SubQ testosterone pin demonstrates slower, even absorption, smooths out peaks and valleys and minimizes aromatization.

I think the consensus from what I've read is most do it SubQ, I'm a bit of an outlier doing IM.

YES, buffered! Okay, today I found the secret. I added an additional 4ml bac and cut my dose down to 50mg. SO MUCH BETTER. This I can do three times a week. Will wait a month to go up to 100 or so for each shot. I just do NOT enjoy pushing a lot of fluid. So I made it too concentrated. I have learned. Oh, man, did I learn!!

Trial and error.....nothing wrong with that approach.

Never said anything about bigger, faster rush doing IM. I simply never felt much of anything doing it SubQ. IM I've had a nice boost in energy, cognition and mood wise that lasts all day.

Never had any of those benefits SubQ.

I agree that T works really well SubQ.

I am on week 4 of that Mitochondrial Enhancement Protocol. It starts you with 25mg NAD+ twice per week and titrates up to 100mg twice a week gradually. I felt nothing at 25mg twice a week so on week two I switched to pining it three times a week (mon/wed/fri). Did 25mg three times didn't feel anything. Then went up to 50 mg 3 times a week and still can't report anything noticeable. Next week going to 100mg and hope for some effect there. There is some discomfort in the pinning area for first 20-30 minutes for me but it goes away quickly. I am planning to add less BAC when I go to 100mg since I don't want to pump so much fluid per shot (100 units). Hopefully it won't be too concentrated.

My rat pins 100mg of NAD+ three times a week or more. No more flushing or burning after the first week for my rat but he says the energy burst is almost addictive.

Ok I just ordered NAD plus 500mg bufferd. Im currently researching tirzepatide. So I'm looking for the NAD. To aid with better conversion of food to energy. And maybe a little pep in my step. Since I'm really trying at a healthy diet and exercise life changes.

I will start by following the attachment. From member Wxmanbc at the beginning of this thread.. thanks wxmanbc

3ml of bac water to 500mg of bufferd NAD+

Weeks 1 and 2 5mg 2x week

Weeks 3 and 4 50mg 2x week

Weeks 4 plus 100mg 2x week

I don't think I'm ready to do any muscle injections. So this will be subcutaneous.

Any suggestions on where?

I'm thinking the thigh? But if it's way more effective in the stomach. I'll do it there as well. But was wanting to keep tirz and nad locations separate.

If you all see anything berong above let me know.

Thanks

Yeah, the mitochondrial protocol wasn't for me. I noped out in mid January, two weeks before the end. The motts-c was leaving some pretty gnarly knots. Two of them are still there; I can feel them, like hard lumps. I'm sure they're not permanent, one of them is gone and the other seems like it's shrinking, but I'm still pretty freaked out, and done trying new non-glp1 peptides. If I haven't already tried it, I'm not going to. Just klow, epitalon, SS-31, and glp-1's for me, that's plenty.

Also, I don't know why my post says "QSC vials," I think maybe my autocorrect got me. QSC vials, I've never bought from QSC.

Edit: oh, apparently Gr e y Ax I s corrects to QSC. I didn't know they were connected, though I'm guessing that's what that means.

WHAT is it with MOTS-C - Oh My Gosh - the knots!! WHY?!?! I rub DMSO into my skin over the lump for a few days, seems to diminish them.

I've been taking it for 6 weeks, 50mg twice a week, I love the clarity and energy I get from it but i get this horrible heartburn then building pressure in my chest right after injection, it freaks me out and doesn't go away until I burp or pass gas, does this happen to anyone else?

I don't dare titerate up because the after rush is so scary

Haven't heard of the heartburn side, not sure what's going on with that.

The chest pressure is a pretty common side effect and the general suggestion is to take a little less if it bothers you. Mine passes after 5-10 minutes (but no, I don't have to burp or pass gas for it to pass) and I dont find it unpleasant.

Have you tried cutting your dosage in 1/2 and seeing if that resolves the issues?

Just make sure you do 25 mg week 1-2 and not 5mg as above

I usually pin in my lower abdomen.

That would REALLY freak me out, too. I just get lumps and bumps. Sigh. Nothing as exciting.

thanks that was a typo I will go fix it

Only thing I’d say, if you want to make the injection, subq or I’m, less likely to sting, I’d do 5 mL to 500 mg. In addition to less sting, unit math is super easy at 1 mg per unit.
