How to Use

Tear open one sachet and mix with 200ml of cold water or juice. Take each morning, with or without food. Do not mix with hot liquids to preserve ingredient integrity.

The Science

NAD+ is essential for energy metabolism, DNA repair and sirtuin activation, proteins that regulate cellular ageing. NAD+ declines ~50% between ages 40 and 60. NR is its most bioavailable precursor, supported by multiple human clinical trials on healthy ageing.

Formulated as One System

The Philosophy

Engineered as one.

Most stacks are a shelf of single bottles fighting for attention. Protocol 01 was formulated as one system: each dose calibrated to work with the next, from NR and resveratrol to creatine and electrolytes.

01
Clinically dosedEvery active at the level the studies actually used, printed on the label.
02
One ritual, not tenA single morning scoop replaces a drawer full of capsules.
03
Tested, then tested againEvery batch verified by accredited third-party labs for purity and potency.

The Ingredients

Full Label →

Sirtuin Activator

How it works

01
Mix one scoop
One sachet into 200ml of cold water, juice or your morning smoothie. Takes 10 seconds. Best taken first thing in the morning.
02
Absorb & activate
Powder format delivers superior bioavailability vs capsules. NR reaches your cells faster and begins replenishing NAD+ within hours of your first serving.
03
Feel the difference
Most members notice improved energy and mental clarity within 2–4 weeks. By month 3, the difference in recovery, sleep quality and skin is measurable.

One scoop vs a shelf of pills.

Rebuilding Protocol 01 from single products means four subscriptions, a cabinet of bottles and a handful of capsules every morning.

The Ritual

The morning decides the day.

200ml of cold water, one scoop, ten seconds. The simplest habit in your routine, and the one everything else builds on.

Protocol 01 · Daily

What to expect.

Longevity work compounds. Give it the 90 days it deserves.

01 Weeks 2–4

Energy settles in

A steadier baseline replaces the caffeine rollercoaster: consistent energy through the afternoon and sharper focus in the morning.

02 Weeks 4–8

Visible on the outside

Skin, hair and sleep quality typically respond next. The hyaluronic acid, biotin and mineral stack works quietly while the NAD+ pathway does the deep work.

03 Month 3

Measurable change

Recovery, sleep and skin become noticeably different, and NAD+ level increases become measurable. This is why we recommend a 90-day commitment.

Individual results and timing vary.

Is it for you?

Protocol 01 is for you if…
✓ You want one clean daily foundation instead of a shelf of separate pills.
✓ You train, work hard and want energy without living on caffeine.
✓ You read labels and want every dose visible, with nothing hidden in a blend.
✓ You're building habits now that your future self will thank you for.
It's probably not for you if…
× You expect results overnight. This is a 90-day commitment, not a quick fix.
× You want the cheapest capsules on the market. Clinical doses cost more to make.
× You're pregnant, breastfeeding or under 18. Speak to a healthcare professional first.

Food supplements are not a substitute for a varied, balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.

★★★★★

Three months in and my energy is different. Not caffeine energy, a deep, consistent baseline. My partner noticed before I did.

★★★★★

I'm a functional medicine doctor. The stack is exactly what I'd formulate. Powder format means superior bioavailability. Genuinely impressive.

★★★★★

The scoop and bottle make this a proper ritual. I look forward to my morning mix every day. Four months with no intention of stopping.
