Mots-C

MOTS-c (Mitochondrial ORF of the 12S rRNA Type-C) is a naturally occurring, 16-amino-acid peptide encoded entirely by your mitochondrial DNA. Discovered in 2015, it acts as a "metabolic regulator" that helps your cells adapt to stress, manage energy, and improve insulin sensitivity.

• Cellular Reboot: MOTS-c moves into the cell's nucleus during metabolic stress to adjust gene expression.

• AMPK Activation: It targets the AMPK pathway (similar to intense exercise or Metformin) to increase fatty acid oxidation and cellular energy production.

• Metabolic Flexibility: It enhances the body's ability to efficiently switch between burning sugars and fats.
