The Strength & Focus Stack
Protein, NAD+ and Functional Mushrooms, in One Shake.
NAD+ Protein gives you 25g of whey isolate protein with liposomal NAD+, TMG and collagen, unflavored. Awaken takes a different approach, with functional mushrooms, colostrum and collagen peptides. Mix them into one chocolate shake with 33g of protein to help you feel great today and a decade from now. Explore how they work together below.

Benefits
Muscle & Recovery
33g of Protein in One Drink
Muscle loss is one of the clearest markers of aging, and protein is the lever that moves it. NAD+ Protein delivers 25g of whey protein isolate per scoop. Whey is the most researched protein for muscle maintenance and recovery, and 25g is the amount studies use. Isolate, not concentrate, means more protein and less lactose per scoop.
Awaken adds 8g more protein from its collagen peptides. Together, one scoop of each gives you 33g of protein in a single chocolate shake, a strong start toward a daily target most people over 50 fall short of.
NAD+ Protein
Builds and maintains muscle
25g of whey isolate, the most researched protein for muscle maintenance and recovery.
Awaken
Adds 8g more protein
Collagen peptides bring the total to 33g of protein per shake.
Protein works on daily totals, not timing. One shake covers 33g of it, with zero added sugar from NAD+ Protein.
Energy
Energy Made Two Ways: Inside the Cell, and Across the Day
NAD+ is the coenzyme your cells use to turn food into usable energy, and your levels decline with age. NAD+ Protein delivers 200mg of liposomal NAD+ in every scoop, along with 250mg of TMG, a methyl donor commonly paired with NAD+ support, and 50mcg of B12 as methylcobalamin, the active form, which is central to energy metabolism.
Awaken works on a different part of the problem: keeping that energy steady from morning to evening. Ceylon cinnamon and chaga are both studied for their role in stabilizing blood sugar, and blood sugar swings are what drive the mid-morning dip and the afternoon slump. No stimulants, no added caffeine in either formula.
NAD+ Protein
Cellular energy
200mg of liposomal NAD+, plus TMG and B12 for energy metabolism.
Awaken
Keeps it steady
Ceylon cinnamon and chaga support stable blood sugar, so the energy doesn't spike and crash.
One formula supports energy at the cellular level, the other smooths it out across the day. No stimulants in either.
Focus
Focus Support From Awaken
Awaken brings a dedicated focus ingredient to the stack: 2,000mg of organic Lion's Mane, one of the most researched functional mushrooms for focus and cognitive function. Brain fog and focus are one of the top two reasons Awaken customers write in. NAD+ Protein's B12 supports nerve function, and absorption of B12 declines with age.
NAD+ Protein
Nerve function
50mcg of methylcobalamin B12, the active form, which is central to nerve function.
Awaken
Dedicated focus support
2,000mg of organic Lion's Mane, studied for focus and cognitive function.
"I'm going through menopause and had really bad brain fog and the 1st time I took it the brain fog went away. Awaken is a part of my morning routine every day, I feel amazing!"
Wendi T. · Awaken customerLion's Mane from Awaken leads on focus, with B12 from NAD+ Protein supporting nerve function.
Skin & Joints
Collagen for Skin and Joints, From Both
Collagen is what your joints, tendons, skin, hair and nails are built from, and your body makes less of it every decade. NAD+ Protein includes hydrolyzed collagen, broken into shorter peptides for easier absorption. Awaken adds 10g of collagen peptides, plus cacao flavanols, the compound studied in NIH-published skin research: women who took cacao flavanols daily for 24 weeks saw a measurable reduction in facial fine lines and wrinkles and improved skin elasticity compared to placebo.
NAD+ Protein
Joints & tendons
Hydrolyzed collagen alongside whey, so your protein shake supports more than muscle.
Awaken
Skin & elasticity
10g of collagen peptides plus cacao flavanols, studied for fine lines over 24 weeks.
Both formulas include collagen, so one shake supports your joints, tendons and skin from two sources.
Gut Health
Gut Support Built Into Your Routine
Awaken brings gut support to the stack. It includes 1,000mg of bovine colostrum to support the gut lining and microbiome, alongside reishi, which is used in longevity protocols for immune support. And because NAD+ Protein uses whey isolate rather than concentrate, it has most of the lactose removed, which is why it sits well with a lot of people who find standard whey hard going.
"I didn't realize how much my gut health was affecting my energy. Since taking this, I feel energized all day."
Michael R. · Awaken customerColostrum and reishi add gut and immune support, in a protein shake built to be easy on digestion.
Your routine
One Shake. Two Formulas.
NAD+ Protein is unflavored, so it mixes right into Awaken. Most people take both together as one chocolate protein shake.
Awaken + NAD+ Protein in one shake
- Add 1 scoop of Awaken and 1 scoop of NAD+ Protein to 8 to 12 oz of water, milk or the drink of your choice.
- Shake or blend. It tastes like Mexican hot chocolate, with 33g of protein.
- Take it at breakfast, after a workout, or whenever you're short on protein. Hitting your daily total matters more than timing.
You can bake with them together too. Chef Lionel uses both NAD+ Protein and Awaken in his protein cookies.
Prefer them separately?
- Take Awaken in the morning in water or coffee.
- Take NAD+ Protein after a workout, in a smoothie or in oatmeal. It won't change the taste.
- One scoop of each a day is all it takes.
Many customers mix Awaken into their coffee as an Awakenchino, and NAD+ Protein works in baking too, like these high-protein sourdough pancakes.
"I love my awaken!! This is a must have for me every morning in my protein shake that mix with the NAD protein mix."

Common Questions
Can I mix NAD+ Protein and Awaken into one drink?
Yes, that's how most people take this stack. NAD+ Protein is unflavored, so a scoop mixes straight into Awaken in water, milk or the drink of your choice, and the shake tastes like Awaken's Mexican hot chocolate.
How much protein is in the shake?
33g: 25g of whey protein isolate from NAD+ Protein, plus 8g of protein from Awaken's collagen peptides.
Is there any ingredient overlap?
One: collagen. NAD+ Protein includes hydrolyzed collagen and Awaken includes 10g of collagen peptides. Everything else is different. Collagen is what your joints, tendons and skin are built from, and your body makes less of it every decade.
Does either one contain caffeine?
Neither formula contains added caffeine or stimulants. NAD+ Protein supports energy at the cellular level with NAD+, TMG and B12, and Awaken supports steady energy through blood sugar balance from Ceylon cinnamon and chaga.
Do they contain dairy?
NAD+ Protein is made with whey protein isolate that's 99% dairy free, so it's lactose friendly and sits well with most people who find standard whey protein hard to digest. Awaken includes bovine colostrum and collagen. Both are milk-derived, so if you have a milk allergy, check with your healthcare provider before starting.
When should I take it?
Any time that fits your day: breakfast, after a workout, or whenever you're short on protein. Protein works on daily totals rather than timing, so taking one scoop of each every day matters more than the hour.
Should I get the Complete Longevity Stack instead?
If you also want NMN and NAD+ cellular support, yes. The Complete Longevity Stack is this stack plus Ageless Reserve: NAD+ Protein, Awaken and Ageless Reserve, for $225 one-time or $189.99 on subscription. If your goals are muscle, focus and recovery, the Strength & Focus Stack covers them.
