NAD+, MOTS-C & SS-31 Energy Peptides in Southlake

Every week at Medrein in Southlake, Dr. Mikki hears the same frustrations from patients: “I’m exhausted all the time,” “I don’t have the energy I used to,” “My brain feels foggy,” “I can’t keep up with my kids or my workouts anymore.” These aren’t just complaints – they’re symptoms of cellular energy decline, and they’re affecting everyone from busy executives in Southlake Town Square to active parents trying to keep up with their families.

The problem isn’t just in your head, and it’s not something you need to accept as normal aging. At the cellular level, your mitochondria – the powerhouses that create energy in every cell – are declining in function. But here’s the exciting news: Dr. Haritha Mikkilineni, a board-certified ER physician, now offers three revolutionary energy peptides that can restore your cellular energy production, reverse fatigue, and help you feel decades younger.

NAD+, MOTS-C, and SS-31 represent the cutting edge of mitochondrial medicine and anti-aging therapy. These aren’t stimulants that give you a temporary buzz. They’re sophisticated compounds that work at the cellular level to optimize how your body produces and uses energy. Let’s explore each one and how they can transform your energy, health, and vitality.

NAD+ Therapy – The Master Energy Molecule#

NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) is one of the most important molecules in your body. It’s found in every single cell and is absolutely essential for energy production, DNA repair, and hundreds of metabolic processes. The problem? NAD+ levels decline by approximately 50% between age 40 and 60, contributing to fatigue, cognitive decline, and accelerated aging.

What NAD+ does in your body:

• Powers mitochondrial energy production (ATP synthesis)
• Activates sirtuins – longevity and anti-aging proteins
• Supports DNA repair and cellular regeneration
• Regulates circadian rhythms and sleep quality
• Enhances metabolic function and fat burning
• Protects neurons and supports brain health
• Reduces inflammation throughout the body
• Supports cardiovascular health

NAD+ therapy benefits:

NAD+ administration at Medrein:

Dr. Mikki offers NAD+ therapy through IV infusions and subcutaneous injections. IV NAD+ provides the highest bioavailability, with most patients receiving 250-500mg infusions over 2-4 hours, typically 1-2 times per week initially.

Many patients at Medrein report feeling noticeably more energetic within hours of their first infusion, with cumulative benefits building over subsequent treatments. Results may vary.

MOTS-C Peptide – The Mitochondrial Exercise Mimetic#

MOTS-C is a relatively new discovery in the peptide world, but it’s already creating excitement in longevity and performance medicine circles. This peptide is actually encoded in your mitochondrial DNA and acts as a signaling molecule between your mitochondria and the rest of your body. Think of it as a messenger that tells your cells to optimize energy production and metabolic function.

What makes MOTS-C special:

• Mitochondrial-derived peptide (MDP)
• Regulates metabolic homeostasis
• Acts as an “exercise mimetic” – produces benefits similar to exercise
• Enhances insulin sensitivity dramatically
• Activates AMPK pathway (metabolic master switch)
• Improves mitochondrial function throughout body
• Protects against metabolic diseases
• Supports healthy aging processes

MOTS-C peptide therapy benefits:

Metabolic and Weight Management#

• Significant improvement in insulin sensitivity
• Enhanced glucose metabolism

MOTS-C protocol at Medrein:

Dr. Mikki typically prescribes MOTS-C as subcutaneous injections, usually 5-15mg administered 2-3 times per week. Many patients in Southlake use MOTS-C as part of their fitness and body composition optimization protocols, often combining it with structured exercise programs for synergistic benefits. Treatment cycles typically run 4-12 weeks, with some patients continuing long-term for sustained metabolic optimization. Results may vary.

SS-31 (Elamipretide) – The Mitochondrial Protector#

SS-31, also known as Elamipretide, is perhaps the most sophisticated mitochondrial peptide available. This small peptide has a remarkable ability to penetrate mitochondrial membranes and protect them from oxidative damage while optimizing their energy production. If NAD+ provides the fuel and MOTS-C optimizes the signaling, SS-31 protects and repairs the mitochondria themselves.

How SS-31 works:

• Targets cardiolipin in inner mitochondrial membrane
• Protects mitochondria from oxidative stress
• Optimizes electron transport chain function
• Reduces production of harmful free radicals
• Enhances ATP (energy) production efficiency
