Part 1: How to Mix (Reconstitute)

Think of this as simply dissolving the powder so it can be measured.

• Add Water: Inject exactly 2.5 mL (250 units) of bacteriostatic water into the 10 mg vial.
• Inject Slowly: Push the needle into the powder vial. Aim the needle at the glass wall and press the plunger slowly so the water trickles down.
• Dissolve: Gently swirl the vial in circles until the liquid is completely clear. Do not shake it like a cocktail shaker, as rough shaking can damage the peptide.
• Store: Put the mixed vial straight into the refrigerator. It must stay cold.

Part 2: Dosing & Schedule

Now that the powder is dissolved in 2.5 mL of water, the math becomes very simple on a standard insulin syringe (the small ones with 100 markings):

• Your Dose: Draw up the liquid to the 5 units mark. Here is exactly how much peptide you get in that single 5-unit dose:
  • CJC-1295 (No DAC): 200 mcg (0.1 mg)
• Your Daily Schedule: Take this 5-unit dose 5 days a week (for example, Monday through Friday, taking weekends off).
  • Note: You can take this up to 2x a day. If you are only dosing 1x a day, take it in the evening.
• Your Cycle Schedule: Run this protocol for 4 to 8 weeks (On-Cycle), followed by a strict 4-week break (Off-Cycle) before starting another round.

Part 3: How Long It Lasts & Total Need

• Total Liquid: 2.5 mL = 250 units total.
• Your Dose: 5 units out of 250 units means you are taking exactly 2% of the vial per dose.
• Vial Lifespan: This setup gives you exactly 50 total doses per vial.
  • At 1 dose a day (5 doses a week), 1 vial lasts exactly 10 weeks.
  • At 2 doses a day (10 doses a week), 1 vial lasts exactly 5 weeks.

Depending on your chosen cycle length, here is what you will need:

• If dosing 1x a day (Evening): 1 vial will comfortably cover either a 4-week or an 8-week cycle.
• If dosing 2x a day:
  • For a 4-Week Cycle: You will need 1 vial total.
  • For an 8-Week Cycle: You will need 2 vials total.

PAIRED SUPPLEMENTS

B-Complex Vitamins (Particularly B12 & Folate)

• Why they help: Growth hormone pulses significantly accelerate cellular metabolism, protein synthesis, and tissue regeneration. B-vitamins act as the mandatory coenzymes required to fuel these metabolic pathways.
• What to use: Methylated forms (such as methylcobalamin and L-methylfolate) are ideal because they bypass the body’s conversion steps, offering immediate bioavailability to keep up with heightened cellular demands.

---

Vitamin D3 + K2

• Why they help: Vitamin D3 acts more like a hormone than a vitamin, playing a foundational role in muscle tissue repair, immune regulation, and structural protein synthesis.
• The Synergy: Always pair D3 with Vitamin K2. K2 acts as a traffic controller, ensuring that the calcium absorbed by D3 is directed precisely into bone and structural matrixes rather than accumulating in soft tissues or arteries.

---

Vitamin C & Zinc

• Why they help: If your research protocol focuses on connective tissue recovery, injury repair, or skin health, this pairing is essential. Zinc is required for cellular division and protein synthesis, while Vitamin C is the direct, rate-limiting substrate your body needs to cross-link and build new collagen strands.

---

Magnesium (Glycinate)

• Why it helps: Magnesium is a cofactor in over 300 enzymatic reactions, including ATP (cellular energy) production and protein synthesis. Because CJC-1295 (No DAC) is highly effective when administered in the evening to mirror natural nocturnal pulses, pairing it with Magnesium Glycinate supports deep, restorative slow-wave sleep phases—which is exactly when peak tissue repair takes place.
