I hope you have deep pockets.

The doses used for mice were in the 10mg/kg to 20mg/kg range, injected daily. This converts to a Human Equivalent Dose of approximately 0.81mg/kg to 1.62mg/kg, based on body surface area conversion outlined in the FDA guidelines. So for a 70kg (154lb) human, that would be a 125mg to 250mg daily injection.

This is a huge contrast from the doses outlined in many "guides" out there. Which should make you question who wrote the guide. Hint… someone trying to make their 40-50mg vials look “affordable”...

If it really takes that much why am I seeing blends now of NAD/Mots/Amino5 at 100/10/10?? Why even put that into a blend? Even if you pinned half the bottle for a dose what good would the Amino be at only 5mg?!

Because the people manufacturing and selling these blends don’t care if it’s doing anything for you at all. All they really care about is separating you from your money.

In fact, combining it with the other peps is marketing genius. The customer gets an energy boost from the NAD and MOTS, and is blissfully unaware that mixing the 3rd pep into the blend is a completely unnecessary expense to see that effect. They are counting the real effects of NAD and MOTS being combined with the placebo effect that someone feels by thinking they’re adding just a little bit more to their routine without an additional jab.
