About MOTS-c

MOTS-c is a 16-amino acid peptide encoded by mitochondrial DNA. It acts as an exercise mimetic, activating AMPK pathways to improve insulin sensitivity, enhance fat metabolism, and increase physical capacity. Research shows it can extend lifespan in animal models.

Research Notes

Research shows MOTS-c levels decline with age and metabolic dysfunction. Studies demonstrate it improves glucose metabolism, prevents diet-induced obesity, and extends lifespan in mice by 14%.
