MOTS-c is a peptide used in research for its role as a metabolic regulator, primarily to improve glucose metabolism, insulin sensitivity, and energy production, showing promise in combating obesity, Type 2 Diabetes and age-related decline by enhancing cellular function and physical performance.

• Metabolic Regulation: Acts as a hormone-like signal, regulating how cells use energy, process sugar, and burn fat.
• Improves Insulin Sensitivity: Increases the uptake of glucose into muscle cells, helping manage blood sugar levels, which is crucial for preventing and treating insulin resistance and Type 2 diabetes.
• Enhances Physical Performance: Boosts endurance and physical capacity, as it improves metabolic flexibility and energy use in skeletal muscles.
• Combats Obesity: Prevents diet-induced obesity and insulin resistance in animal studies.
• Supports Cellular Health: Protects cells from stress and supports overall mitochondrial function, contributing to longevity.
• Anti-Inflammatory Effects: Reduces pro-inflammatory factors and may help mitigate inflammation.
