Reconstitution Steps
- Remove the vial from freezer storage (−20 °C / −4 °F) and allow to equilibrate at room temperature for 15–20 minutes.
- Wipe top of Peptide and Bacteriostactic Water with alcohol to disinfect.
- Draw 1.0 ml bacteriostatic water with a sterile syringe. All our vials are vacuum sealed, so when inserting syringe to add bacterioststic water hold plunger so it does not shoot the water into the peptide or vial.
- Inject slowly down the vial wall; avoid foaming.
- Gently swirl/roll until dissolved—solution should be clear (do not shake).
- Refrigerate at 2–8 °C (35.6–46.4 °F).
SS-31 (10mg) Dosage Guide
After reconstituting this 10mg vial with 1ml of Bacteriostatic Water, the concentration is 10mg/ml. Using this dilution, use the following marks on a standard U-100 insulin syringe:
- Low Dosage (1mg): Draw to the 10-unit mark.
Ideal for: Baseline mitochondrial support and cellular energy maintenance.
- The Ideal Range (2.5mg): Draw to the 25-unit mark.
Ideal for: Standard recovery for muscle fatigue, neuroprotection, and metabolic support.
- High Dosage (5mg): Draw to the 50-unit mark.
Ideal for: Intensive potocol targeting acute oxidative stress or significant tissue repair.
Protocol & Cycle Length
SS-31 is a specialized mitochondria-targeting peptide that is most effective when used in structured cycles to restore cellular respiration and ATP production.
- Cycle Length: A typical cycle lasts 4 to 12 weeks. For most, a 4-week cycle is sufficient to “re-energize” mitochondrial function, followed by a 4-week break to assess baseline energy levels and allow the body to maintain its own mitochondrial health.
Administration Tips
Start Low, Go Slow: Begin with the 1mg (10 units) dose during your first week to allow your body to acclimate to the increase in cellular energy. From there, gradually adjust your dose upward until you find the level that works best for you.
Tapering Off: Although not required for mitochondrial peptides, many users find it beneficial to reduce their dosage gradually during the final week of a cycle. This measured approach gives your metabolism and appetite signals time to readjust as your cells ease back to their natural baseline.
Hydration: Drink plenty of water throughout your cycle. Increased ATP production and the accompanying metabolic shifts can elevate your body's hydration demands, so staying ahead of your fluid intake is important.
