Humanin — anyone actually running this or is it too hard to source?

Mitochondrial-derived peptide like MOTS-c but less hyped, less available, less characterized. Curious if anyone here has tried it, what protocol, what they noticed.

I've sourced once. Very limited suppliers. Ran 5mg 2x/week for 6 weeks. Subjective energy similar to MOTS-c but I can't separate it from the MOTS-c baseline I was on. Would want to isolate but sourcing is a hurdle.

Preclinically interesting. Clinically: essentially unexplored in healthy people. If you can source clean material and run a careful pulse it's worth a try but don't expect published human data for a while.

Until there's human PK data I'd be very cautious on dose. The rodent-to-human extrapolation in this family is not straightforward.

Interested but waiting. MOTS-c has enough reach for my purposes for now and I'd rather see someone else characterize humanin more first.
