SS-31

Mitochondria support, energy, and endurance

Quick answer

A 10 mg vial with 1 mL of bac water makes 10 mg/mL. A 5 mg dose is 50 units on a U-100 syringe, half a syringe. Most runs are 4 to 8 weeks.

Mix it
10 mg vial + 1 mL water
Draw
About 50 units on a U-100 syringe
How often
Daily, 5 days a week
Store it
Refrigerate after mixing. Use within about 4 weeks.

What it is

SS-31 is a small peptide that gathers inside the mitochondria, the parts of the cell that make energy. Research looks at how well those parts work as we age.

Most used for

  • Cellular energy production
  • Muscle strength and endurance
  • Recovery from hard training
  • Age-related energy decline

These are things researchers study. They are not promised results.

Dosing at a glance

These are the amounts used most often in research. Always start at the low end.

10 mg
Dose range
5 mg per dose is the common starting point
How often
Daily, 5 days a week
Cycle length
4 to 8 weeks, then a break
Mix with
Bacteriostatic water.
Storage
Refrigerate after mixing. Use within about 4 weeks.

Mixing it

A common setup for SS-31 is a 10 mg vial with 1 mL of bac water.

That makes 10 mg per mL. A 5 mg dose is about 50 units on a standard insulin syringe.
