Summary

What is MOTS-c?

MOTS-c is a 16-amino-acid peptide encoded in the DNA of the mitochondria, the part of the cell that makes energy. The body makes it naturally.

What is it researched for?

It's studied for insulin sensitivity, weight and physical capacity. Because of its effects in animals, it's been called an "exercise mimetic."

How does it work?

It acts mainly in muscle and activates AMPK, a cellular energy sensor that also switches on when you exercise.

MOTS-c 10 mg

This lot's report will be published here as soon as it arrives from the lab.

Preparation

3 mLof bacteriostatic water
for the 10 mg vial

If you already know how to reconstitute, that's all you need.

ConcentrationOn a U-100 syringe3.33 mg per mL30 units = 1 mg

Reconstituting means mixing the powder in the vial with bacteriostatic water to get a solution that's ready to use. The peptide comes as a powder because it keeps better that way.

How to reconstitute

The same 6 steps as the video. Tap an image to see it full size.

1. What you need. Have everything on the “What you need” list at hand.
2. Get ready. Wash your hands well and work on a clean surface. Let the vial and the water reach room temperature.
3. Clean the stoppers. Remove the plastic caps. Wipe the stoppers with alcohol and let them dry.
4. Draw the water. Draw 3 mL of bacteriostatic water. Read the measurement at the plunger edge closest to the needle.
5. Add the water slowly. The vial is vacuum sealed and pulls the water in: hold the plunger right where it enters the syringe. Let the water run down the inside wall of the vial, never straight onto the powder. Dispose of the needle in a rigid container.
6. Dissolve completely. Don't shake the vial. Swirl it gently or let it rest; it usually takes 30 seconds to 3 minutes. It's ready when there are no particles and it's completely clear.

Afterward: label the vial with the date you reconstituted it and keep it in the fridge (see Storage).

Storage

Once reconstituted, it needs cold and darkness.

2 °C – 8 °C

Always in the fridge. Take it out only to draw your dose and put it back right away.

Never freeze it

Once reconstituted, freezing damages it. Also avoid the fridge door, where the temperature changes the most.

4 to 6 weeks

Use it within that time after reconstituting. Protect it from light: keep it in its box or a dark container.

Before reconstitution: it keeps best in the fridge or freezer, away from light and moisture.

If you travel: carry it in an insulated bag with a cold pack, without direct contact with the ice.

Dosing and calendar

Once a day, always at the same time

This is a suggested progression, not a cycle you have to finish. Go up every two weeks; you can stay at any phase. It's the reference published by peptidedosages.com; no published studies define a dose for people.

Practical tips

About the dose

It doesn't replace exercise

In animals it worked better together with physical activity. Think of it as an add-on to your routine.

Close to your workouts

In forums, many people take it in the morning or before training.

Measure with data

If you care about glucose, compare lab results before and after, with the same diet and routine.

If side effects show up

At the injection site

Mild redness or itching. Rotate the site every day.

Not everyone notices something

Many people in forums say they don't notice any changes. That doesn't mean something is wrong.

If something doesn't feel right

Stay on your current dose longer, or stop.

Frequently asked questions

Why is it called an "exercise mimetic"?

Because in mice it switched on some of the same signals in muscle that exercise does, and it improved their physical capacity. In people, exercise raises natural MOTS-c levels.

Does it help with weight loss?

There are no published human trials that confirm it. In mice, it prevented weight gain on a high-fat diet.

What time should I take it?

The reference we follow doesn't set a time. In forums, many people take it in the morning or before training. What matters is taking it at the same time every day.

Where can I check the lab results before I buy?

In Quality, on this same page, you can open the report for the strength and lot we sell.

What's included, and how much is shipping?

Every peptide vial comes with one 3 mL vial of bacteriostatic water, plus alcohol wipes; the reconstitution guide is on this page. Shipping is free anywhere in Colombia, in discreet packaging.

When will my order ship?

If your payment is confirmed before 4 p.m. (Monday to Friday) or noon (Saturday), we ship it that same day. After that time, and on Sundays and Colombian holidays, we ship it the next business day. Bogotá time.

What payment methods can I use?

Cards, PSE, Nequi, Daviplata and Bancolombia through Wompi, or USDT on the TRC-20 network. You'll see every option at checkout.

What do the studies say?

The results are in mice. In people, natural MOTS-c has been measured, not injected MOTS-c.

Metabolism

Cell Metabolism · 2015 · mice

MOTS-c treatment prevented the insulin resistance that comes with age and with a high-fat diet, and also the weight gain from that diet.

See the study · PubMed ↗

Physical capacity

Nature Communications · 2021 · mice and people

It improved physical performance in young, middle-aged and old mice, even when treatment started late in life (3 times a week).

In people, exercise raised natural MOTS-c levels in muscle and in the blood.

See the study · PubMed ↗

How to read this data

There are no published trials of injected MOTS-c in people.
What works in mice doesn't always work the same way in people.
The studies used their own preparations, not KAILAB vials.
