MOTS-C 10mg

MOTS-c (Mitochondrial-Derived Peptide) is a mitochondrial-derived peptide consisting of 16 amino acids that plays a crucial role in regulating metabolism, cellular energy, and insulin sensitivity. It activates AMPK (AMP-activated protein kinase), which promotes glucose utilization, fat metabolism, and cellular energy balance. MOTS-c has gained attention for its anti-aging, metabolic, and mitochondrial-boosting effects. 

Benefits of MOTS-c

• Enhances Metabolism: Improves glucose uptake and insulin sensitivity, aiding in fat loss and energy production.

• Increases Muscle Endurance: Enhances mitochondrial function, supporting higher energy output and endurance.

• Promotes Longevity: Reduces oxidative stress and inflammation, potentially extending lifespan.

• Supports Cardiovascular Health: Improves heart function by reducing metabolic stress.

• Regulates Blood Sugar Levels: Helps manage insulin resistance and prevent type 2 diabetes.

• Improves Cognitive Function: Enhances brain energy metabolism and reduces cognitive decline.

• Protects Against Oxidative Stress: Mitigates the effects of cellular stress and aging.

Standard Dosing:
✅ Metabolic and Fat Loss Protocol:

• 5mg – 10mg per week

• Divide dose into 2-3 injections per week (e.g., 2.5mg every 2-3 days).

• Administer subcutaneously into the abdomen or thigh.

• Duration: 4-6 weeks, followed by a 4-6 week break before repeating.

✅ Anti-Aging and Longevity Protocol:

• 5mg per week (divided into smaller doses if preferred).

• Administer subcutaneously 2-3 times per week.

• Duration: 4-6 weeks, repeated 1-2 times per year.

✅ Insulin Sensitivity Protocol:

• 5mg – 10mg per week divided into 2-3 doses.

• Best administered before or after workouts to optimize glucose uptake and metabolism.

Potential Adverse Effects

• Mild Injection Site Reactions: Possible redness, swelling, or discomfort.

• Mild Headache or Fatigue: Due to metabolic shifts during initial use.

• Temporary Nausea: Rare but possible during the first few doses.

• Mood or Energy Changes: Rare, due to increased mitochondrial activity.

Pro Tip: MOTS-c is often stacked with other peptides like BPC-157 or CJC-1295/Ipamorelin for enhanced metabolic and regenerative effects.
