You have the right ingredients. But do you have the right timing?
One of the most common questions we get at NyxSeren is: "When is the best time to take my vitamins?"
The answer lies in Chrononutrition (the science of timing your food and supplements to your body's internal clock). Taking a mitochondrial booster at 10 PM is useless; taking a sleep aid at 6 PM is counterproductive.
To get the most out of your anti-aging routine, you need to stop thinking in terms of "pills" and start thinking in terms of "programming."
Here is the exact 24-hour protocol we recommend for maximizing energy, skin repair, and longevity.
H2: The Morning Phase: Defense & Energy (07:00 – 12:00)
Goal: Signal the brain that the day has started, spike NAD+ levels, and protect skin from upcoming UV damage.
07:00 AM | The Light Signal
Before you look at your phone, get 5-10 minutes of sunlight. This triggers the cortisol awakening response and sets the timer for your sleep hormone (Melatonin) to be released 14 hours later.
07:30 AM | Hydration & Venus (MVD)
Take your Venus (Metabolic Vitality Drive) supplement with a large glass of water.
-
Why Now? Venus contains NAD+ precursors and PQQ. Your mitochondria are naturally ramping up energy production now. Taking this with your morning cortisol spike amplifies mental clarity.
-
Pro Tip: Venus also contains Ergothioneine to "shield" your cells before you step out into pollution and sun.
08:00 AM | Protein-Forward Breakfast
Avoid high-sugar cereals. Opt for eggs or greek yogurt. Protein in the morning stabilizes blood sugar, preventing the "afternoon crash" that often leads to skin inflammation (glycation).
H2: The Afternoon Phase: Sustain & Focus (13:00 – 17:00)
Goal: Maintain steady glucose levels and avoid the "post-lunch slump."
14:00 PM | The "No Coffee" Cutoff
Caffeine has a half-life of 5-6 hours. Drinking coffee after 2 PM means 25% of it will still be in your brain at 10 PM, disrupting your deep sleep.
15:00 PM | The Movement Break
If you work at a desk, your circulation slows down. A 5-minute walk helps flush out metabolic waste.
H2: The Evening Phase: Wind Down (18:00 – 21:00)
Goal: Lower cortisol, prepare the liver, and activate autophagy.
19:00 PM | Dinner Curfew
Try to finish eating 3 hours before bed. Digestion requires a high body temperature; Sleep requires a low body temperature. Eating late forces your body to stay hot, killing your sleep quality.
20:00 PM | Blue Light Block
Dim the lights. Blue light suppresses melatonin.
H2: The Night Phase: Repair & Renew (21:30 – 07:00)
Goal: Deep detox, DNA repair, and collagen synthesis.
21:30 PM | Luna (NRR) Protocol
Take your Luna (Nightly Repair & Renewal) supplement 30-60 minutes before sleep.
-
Why Now? Luna is packed with Tart Cherry and relaxation botanicals. It helps drop your core body temperature and supports the liver for its 1 AM - 3 AM detox shift.
-
The Benefit: This ensures you don't wake up at 3 AM (See our guide on The 3 AM Liver Wake-up).
22:30 PM | Sleep
Ideally, be asleep by 11 PM to catch the first wave of Growth Hormone release.
