Happy Tuesday!
The new SS-31 masterclass just dropped on YouTube and Spotify.
This is the most complete breakdown of SS-31 I have ever put together.

It covers what it actually does, who it helps, how to dose it, how to stack it, and where I think the field is heading.
Here’s What I Cover
Here is the rundown of what we get into. Some of it gets nerdy. Some of it gets practical. All of it matters if you want to actually use this peptide well.
Why SS-31 is the first FDA-approved mitochondrial peptide and what the September 2025 approval actually means
The cardiolipin story and why SS-31 is a membrane restorer, not just another antioxidant
Who actually benefits from SS-31 and who probably will not feel much
The three-tier dosing ladder I use with people, from 1 milligram for general optimization to 10 milligrams for chronic dysfunction
Why I run SS-31 before MOTS-c and why I think the order matters
My take on cycling, what to expect off-cycle, and how long the benefits actually last
Reconstitution math, injection technique, and the storage and travel tips nobody else covers
Stacking SS-31 with BPC, TB-500, GH peptides, GLPs, and why pairing with a GLP can actually amplify side effects
Troubleshooting the "I don't feel anything" complaint and the five things to check before you write it off
The honest answers to the questions I get asked all the time about SS-31 vs MitoQ, oral options, pregnancy, kids, TRT, and more
Where the field is heading with SBT-272 and the next generation of mitochondrial compounds
I packed a lot into this one. The video runs longer than my usual stuff, but that is on purpose. By the end you should know exactly what SS-31 does and how to use it.
Final Thoughts
SS-31 is one of my top three peptides.
It is one of the few peptides where I think there is a real use case for almost anyone over 25. The environmental and lifestyle stressors we live with are constantly hammering our mitochondria. SS-31 goes upstream of all of it.
Most peptides do one thing well. GLPs work on appetite and metabolism. BPC works on healing. Growth hormone peptides work on the GH axis. SS-31 works on the engine itself. When the engine runs better, everything else runs better, too.
I have personally used SS-31 for several years now. I plan to keep cycling it for the rest of my life.
Remember, the peptide is a tool. It works best when the foundation is in place.
Sleep, nutrition, training, stress management, relationships.
SS-31 sits on top of all that and supports the energy supply everything else depends on.
If you are not handling the foundation, the peptide is not going to save you.
Thank you for being here.
The fact that I get to make this content and put it out into the world is genuinely a dream come true. Whether you watch the video, share it with a friend, use my code at the places I partner with, or just stay on this email list, it all matters more than you probably realize!
Best,
