Reset your mitochondria

MOTS-c tells your body to build new mitochondria.
NAD+ and SS-31 make sure they deliver.

MOTS-c builds new mitochondria. NAD+ is the coenzyme they make ATP with. SS-31 repairs the ones age damaged.

I coach people to get their health back through specific protocols and methods. Detoxing the body, rebuilding the gut microbiome, peptide optimization, testosterone recovery, and the lifestyle practices under all of it.

01
MOTS-cBuilds new mitochondria
what getting your energy back actually looks like
MOST DAYS the 3pm crash coffee to bedtime REBUILT steady to the end of the day 8AM 3PM 10PM THE CRASH IS A SUPPLY PROBLEM
what each compound actually does
01
MOTS-cThe build signal

Your muscle already makes it when you train. Injected, it sends the same AMPK signal a hard workout does, and your cells respond by building new mitochondria and burning fat for fuel.

02
NAD+The coenzyme

NAD+ carries electrons out of your food and hands them to your mitochondria to finish as ATP. Around 500 cellular reactions depend on it, and you lose about half of it by 40.

03
SS-31The repair layer

New mitochondria fix tomorrow. SS-31 repairs the damaged ones you already carry, so they stop leaking energy as inflammation. The deepest repair in the stack.

the two facts this whole page rests on
Your mitochondria start declining in your mid-20s.
MOTS-c is a peptide your own muscle already makes.
what the first twelve weeks look like
WHERE YOU STARTED the rebuild dip · where most people quit and it holds WEEK 1 WEEK 3 WEEK 12
Week 1–2

You feel worse before you feel better. Building new mitochondria costs energy before it produces any. Don't start this the same week as anything that needs you at your best.

Week 3–6

The dip clears and the real energy arrives. The 3pm crash is usually the first thing to go.

Week 8–12

The baseline holds on its own. Recovery between sessions and training capacity climb with it.

After week 12

MOTS-c comes off and the energy stays, because the new mitochondria are yours. The peptide was the signal to build them, not the thing holding you up.

02
NAD+The coenzyme the rebuild runs on
why the first weeks dip

Building new mitochondria is one of the most energy expensive things your body does, and the build order arrives before the new capacity does. That gap is the dip, and NAD+ is what closes it.

WHERE YOU STARTED MOTS-c ALONE three weeks under water WITH NAD+ DAILY over in a week WEEK 1 WEEK 3 WEEK 6
why the coenzyme half isn't optional

NAD+ is the coenzyme your mitochondria make ATP with. It carries the electrons out of your food and hands them over, and that hand off is the step that actually makes energy.

You lose roughly half your NAD+ by 40. It also runs all seven of your sirtuin longevity genes, which is a big part of why tired no matter how much I sleep creeps in through your 30s.

what it does for you
All day energy
Cuts the startup dip
DNA repair
Runs your sirtuin genes
why they have to be injected

Swallowing any of it does nothing. NAD+ is destroyed in your gut, and MOTS-c and SS-31 are peptides your stomach digests like any other protein before they reach your blood.

03
SS-31Repairs the ones you already have
why the third compound is here

MOTS-c builds you new mitochondria, but it does nothing for the damaged ones you already carry. And they don't sit there quietly. They leak.

DAMAGED energy leaks out as inflammation SEALED BY SS-31 energy finishes as ATP IT FINDS THE DAMAGED ONES ON ITS OWN
how it repairs them

SS-31 binds cardiolipin, the fat that holds the inner mitochondrial membrane together. It concentrates in your most damaged mitochondria, passes over the healthy ones, and seals the membrane so electrons finish as ATP instead of leaking out as reactive oxygen.

It comes second, on purpose. Run MOTS-c and NAD+ first and let the new baseline settle. Then SS-31 comes in for 8 weeks to repair the old stock, so the mitochondria you keep run as clean as the ones you just built. Signal first, then repair.

the order matters

MOTS-c + NAD+

Phase one. Build and fuel.

SS-31

Phase two. Repair, added once the baseline is set.

How you actually get itand what it runs you
what running it actually looks like
MOTS-cDaily in the morning, 12 weeks · with carbs that day, never fasted
NAD+Three mornings a week, fasted · daily while the dip is on
SS-31Phase two only · 8 weeks on, 3 off, always after MOTS-c
is this actually for you

This is for tired no matter how much I sleep. If what you want is fat loss or to heal an injury, those are different stacks and I'll tell you so.
