Description

MOTS-c is a natural 16-amino-acid peptide encoded within mitochondrial DNA. It acts as a cellular signaling molecule that helps regulate metabolism, improve insulin sensitivity, and mimic some of the metabolic benefits of physical exercise. It targets the skeletal muscle to improve glucose uptake an fatty acid oxidation. It stimulates AMPK (the cell’s master energy gauge. It can assist with metabolic stress to activate protective and antioxidant genes. It assists with age related metabolic dysfunction since natural levels drop as people age.
