NAD+

[BadassBlues]

Perfect. I reconstituted my 1000mg vial with 10ml’s. So I’ve been injecting 0.5 ml to get 50mg. Will reconstitute with 5ml’s next time

You should be noticing a slight elevation in mood. Can you feel anything yet?

You should be noticing a slight elevation in mood. Can you feel anything yet?

So I think I noticed a slight boost the day after my first injection, as well as a slight benefit in the gym. My routines are usually very consistent, as far as weights and reps. But the day after my first injection I was able to keep the weight where it was during the last few sets, when almost always I have to lower the weight slightly for those last couple sets

Today I didn’t notice any improvements in mood, and I take the weekends off from the gym, so we’ll have to see Monday if I still notice any gym improvements. But I’m hoping as I continue to take the NAD+ and glutathione, I do notice a bit of a mood elevation. Obv it’s still very early

So far I’ve injected 200mg glutathione and 50mg NAD+ on Thursday, and did the same today (Saturday)

Where are u injecting the Nad+? I’ve just been injecting both the glutathione and NAD+ in my belly fat

Belly and just above the buttocks.

Very positive results so far with the injections. I am injecting 50 mg EOD and can really feel an energy and mood elevation. I can say this is improving a lot of aspects to my overall life. I am a musician, and I have really been energized lately. My playing is better, and my voice has regained a lot of strength. I notice it in my interactions with people as well, just more positive mojo.

I started my wife on this protocol as well and she is also really responding to it.

Again... age may be a factor. I'm 68 and my wife is a hot young 53-year-old (I am truly blessed). At our age, we have already felt the decline in NAD+, so to regain it is a likely factor in why the results are what they are. Younger people may not notice the effects as much. But the reason a younger person may want to start and continue this is to avoid ever having a decline in the first place.

That’s great to hear man! Happy for u and ur wife that ur both benefiting from taking it. I think im feeling it to a degree as well. Not as profoundly as u are, from the sounds of it, but I’m noticing myself being in a lighter mood, wanting to be more playful with the kids, talking to people more/ being a little more social. I’ve also been doing 50mg EOD. Plan was to front load a bit, then drop down to like 50mg 3x/ week, but I kind of don’t want to stop doing the 50mg EOD lol

What’s ur plan, as far as dosing goes? U gonna lower ur dose a little soon, or just do the 50mg EOD indefinitely?

If I keep up this dosing schedule, I’m definitely gonna order from where u got urs. It will save me $70 per 1000mg vial, compared to going through defy to get them

I'm thinking the front-loading protocol works great and gives the precursor (NR) time to do its thing. I don't have a definite plan at this point but intend to continue EOD for the time being. It's not really that high of a dose, so I feel okay with this plan.

I think it will resolve itself as time goes by and I will make adjustments based on results.

I have used 2 IM brands @ dose between 100-200mg:
Empower (lyophilized)
Kimera Chems (premixed)

The Empower hits me like a freight train @ doses >150mg IM; I get quite a rush, increased HR and feel like I'm going to explode; lasts about 30s, then dissipated rapidly.
The Kimera vial is inconsistent and usually require larger doses to get a similar rush.
Don't really feel any different after.

So u don’t really notice any benefits from NAD+?

Do u still currently take it?

And how often were u dosing the 100-200mg?

That seems like I pretty big dose. I’m currently doing 50mg EOD, and I thought that was a decent dose

Hard to gauge since I take so many compounds, but I still include it in my arsenal. I dose 2-3x's/week.

I took 25mg this morning at 08.30. By 9am I was absolutely wired and felt anxious. Its 11.47 now and im just starting to get over the worst part. I must be sensitive to it. Even on trt I only take 75mg a week and that has me at high normal.

Hi all. Older thread but I thought I’d jump in. I’m 6 weeks into NAD+ therapy. I got mine from DirectMeds.com (a legit site where all peptides are prescribed by a doc online and then compounded at a pharmacy). $199/month shipped with all needles, alcohol swabs and 3 months worth of reconstituted solution. Your first month is half price. Dosing is 50mg/day 5 days per week. You can ask for an increase up,to 100mg/day which I just did.

Anyway – I noticed no change in energy however I have a lot better recovery skin and youthful appearance seem to improve, but that subjective. The one thing that was undeniable was how fast I metabolized glucose. I wear a continuous glucose monitor – not because I am diabetic, but because I was very interested in seeing how different meals and food combinations and supplements would affect my overall glucose throughout the day.

Long story short, taking the NAD – my glucose barely budged – I mean I was sitting at between 70 and 80 throughout the day and even taking meals with carbs, It might push up to 110 – maybe 120. But when I was not taking anything I was normally sitting at 100 to 110 daily with spikes up to the 140 to 150. It was amazing in that regard. As a result, I lost a lot of body fat and look really lean and vascular.

So did it work – yeah I guess so. It was not one of these miracle things that made me feel like I was 20 years old again. TRT plus some anabolics plus growth hormone handle that but this was a nice overall addition. Based on my research into this compound, I plan to continue, but will look for cheaper sourcing. A lot of reputable peptide companies have it at half the price

Just ordered some injectable NAD+. Anyone have any experience with it?

I haven’t tried injectable NAD+ myself, but I’d go into it with realistic expectations. Some people report better energy, focus, or recovery, while others say they don’t notice much at all. The research on clear wellness or anti-aging benefits in humans is still limited.

I’d also make sure it came from a licensed pharmacy and that a healthcare professional gave you proper instructions. Injectable NAD+ can cause side effects such as nausea, chills, shaking, fatigue, or discomfort, and product quality matters a lot with compounded injections.

This beginner’s guide explains NAD+ and the difference between injections and precursors such as NMN and NR: peptides.io/learn/what-is-nad-plus/

Where did you order yours from, and will you be taking it under medical supervision?

Update. So I am closing in on my three month experiment with NAD +. I’ve decided not to renew it. As I mentioned in my post above – the benefits were subjective. But I was already fairly healthy and in shape, so the theory is for people like myself, and probably many of you as well – who take care of ourselves, have good hormones workout, etc. it will be less noticeable than if someone was metabolic unfit and 100 pounds overweight.

From my research – it seems that MOT – C might be more worthwhile. This has confirmed glucose, sensitivity, improvements, fat loss, and works on the energy system in a different pathway. So that is my next stop.

Please keep us updated on the MOT-C. I have not used it but it seems interesting.
