Injection
MOTS-c
A mitochondrial peptide that acts a bit like exercise at the cell level.
What it is
MOTS-c comes from your mitochondria, the parts of your cells that make energy. It's studied for how it helps cells use fuel the way exercise does.
What it's used for
Metabolism, endurance and countering the slowdown that comes with age.
How it's taken
A small under-the-skin injection you give yourself at home. The prescribing provider sets the dose and schedule, and the pharmacy sends written instructions with your order. We walk you through the first one if you'd like.
What to expect
It works best alongside training, not instead of it. Changes in energy and stamina tend to build over several weeks.
Who it's not for
- Anyone who is pregnant, trying to get pregnant, or nursing.
- Anyone under 18.
- The partner medical intake asks about your health history and current medications, and the provider decides whether it's a fit.
