Medical disclaimerWhat is MOTS-c?
A 16-amino-acid peptide encoded not in nuclear DNA but in mitochondrial DNA. It is described as a regulator of metabolism acting through the AMPK pathway — the same one physical exercise switches on.
Human evidence is absent. The available work is cell models and rodents: one study gave diabetic rats 15 mg per kg daily for 3 weeks. No published randomised human trial exists.
What follows is dosing arithmetic and numeric protocols drawn from published sources and clinical trials. It describes what those sources report; it is not medical advice and not instructions for use. This part of the page is meant for people aged 18 and over.
The confirmation is kept in this browser, and on the account for signed-in users. The peptide description and its regulatory status are available without it.
