Going one step further—has anyone here combined it with NAD+? From what I know (and I'm a total beginner at this lol), the two might work together synergistically

When you stack them, is the effect different from using just one on its own — or did you begin with both at the same time?CNCCurrency said:

Honestly, no. I'm simply finishing off the 5 amino kit I have, and I doubt I'll buy more. The science fascinates me, but I haven't noticed any positive effects.ftv10hb said:

Are you seeing zero effects, or is it simply too minor to justify the cost?DukeBroadway said:
Right now I'm on 5mg, and I won't be buying it again.
It looks like you're comfortable beginning with larger amounts. My approach is to begin small, then increase the dose rapidly once I've seen how my body responds.chewonmysac said:
5mg every day. Fasted, first thing in the morning.
Run it for 6-8 weeks. After each cycle, break for a month. Great pep.
Personally, I'm a bit of a chicken. My starting dose was .5 mg.RicFlair said:
wow, that completely dwarfs my 0.5 mg haha. Seems like I should ramp up my dose fast and find out how my body responds. What length of cycle are you planning? I've got 2 kits of 5-amino 5mg, so now I'm crossing my fingers that even if a full vial per day is needed, it'll still be worthwhile for me. @eidos
Down the road I'll likely raise the dose to 5mgorenkaid said:
My routine is 1mg daily, since dosage recommendations seem to vary wildly from person to person. I could definitely tell it was doing something. Once my 50mg vials arrive, I'll likely increase to 5mg.TeresaHip said:
Same here. LoL I figured .5 and then 1mg would do the trick.
"reconstitute it with sterile water" Is sterile water the recommended option, or is that just your personal preference over BAC water? I've already placed an order, but I still have more to learn before I'm ready. Thankseidos said:
It works really well. The tiredness from diabetes and Reta treatment is gone entirely. My daily dose is 5 mg injected under the skin. I went up to 10 mg, but it gave no extra benefit, and the decline afterward came on too fast.
During exercise I breathe more easily, lactic acid builds up less, and my heart rate sits roughly 10 bpm lower.
For mixing, I use sterile water for injection. Since it's a quaternary ammonium compound, it acts as an antimicrobial. When you flush the needle, be careful not to splash: don't inject while dressed in clothes you care about.
I've come across reports of people doing 50 mg per day (subcutaneously, not by mouth). From the research I've read, the dose-response curve plateaus early, under the human equivalent of 50 mg. Also, it may be a mutagen, so I wouldn't chance high doses. (Its color brings ethidium bromide to mind: perhaps that's what keeps me at a lower dose).
What fascinates me is the idea that this could bring homocysteine down and wipe out the epigenetic memory of fat cells, which would stop weight from coming back. We'll revisit this in a year or two.

So if I've got this right, either option works? I've already got BAC here, so I'll go ahead with that assuming I'm following what you're saying.eidos said:

Antimicrobial action comes from quaternary ammonium compounds. Disinfectant wipes and some medical-grade antiseptics (frequently benzalkonium) contain them. Since BA works by stopping bacterial growth, it would not perform any better, so including it strikes me as pointless.
BAC is fine to use, yes.BlueDog55 said:
