Humanin is a mitochondrial-derived peptide with strong preclinical neuroprotective and anti-aging signals. Mouse studies show healthspan improvements and metabolic benefits. No human trials exist yet, and a documented cancer risk from its anti-apoptotic mechanism makes careful screening non-negotiable before starting.

Confirm which form you have before doing anything else. Most vendors sell HNG (S14G-Humanin), which is roughly 1,000x more potent than native humanin. Using HNG at milligram doses would be a massive overdose. Ask the vendor in writing: native humanin or HNG? Get it confirmed before opening the vial. For a 5 mg native humanin vial reconstituted with 2 mL bacteriostatic water, concentration is 2.5 mg/mL. On a U100 insulin syringe, 1 mg equals 0.4 mL, which is 40 units. A 3 mg dose comes to 1.2 mL (120 units); that's a large SC volume, so consider reconstituting 5 mg in 1 mL BAC water instead (5 mg/mL, making 3 mg equal to 60 units). Each 5 mg vial provides five doses at 1 mg or roughly 1.7 doses at 3 mg. A 10-week moderate cycle (3 mg three times weekly, 90 mg total) requires about 18 vials. At $75.99 per vial, that's around $1,368 before shipping. Plan your reconstitution timing carefully; reconstituted vials only last 21 to 30 days refrigerated.
