5-amino-1MQ is a peptide that’s designed to promote healthy and effective weight loss in patients who are considered clinically obese. It comes in the form of oral capsules that can be taken once per day.
When combined with a low-calorie diet, this type of peptide therapy can help considerably boost the body’s metabolism and improve its ability to burn fat.
How Does It Work?
When our bodies’ fat cells grow larger as we gain weight, it causes excess production of NNMT (Nicotinamide N-methyltransferase), a cytosolic enzyme that works to slow down fat cell metabolism. When that happens, it becomes significantly more difficult for cells to burn fat.
As fat tissue increases, more hormones and inflammatory properties are produced, resulting in a snowball effect of weight gain — and often health-related problems associated with it.
5-amino-1MQ is a small, selective, membrane-permeable molecule that works to prevent the production of excess NNMT, targeting the source problem. By reducing NNMT, the body’s ability to burn fat doesn’t slow down and fat cells don’t continue growing. 5-amino 1MQ is also safe for preventing and even reversing obesity because it doesn’t have any effect on other enzymes’ activity. This helps reduce the risk of side effects.
Benefits of 5-Amino-1MQ:
- Can reverse diet-induces obesity
- Can treat related metabolic conditions
- Can increase cellular energy regulators
- Can prevent lipogenesis (fat accumulation)
- Can increase NAD+ and SAM concentrations in fat cells
- Can regulate energy expenditure in fat cells
NAD+ stands for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. From single-cell organisms like bacteria to sophisticated multicellular ones like primates, NAD+ is one of the most abundant and crucial molecules. Basically, without NAD+, we would be on the fast track to death. The molecule is a linchpin to the function of the generators of cells — mitochondria. NAD+ not only helps convert food to energy but also plays a crucial role in maintaining DNA integrity and ensures proper cell function to protect our bodies from aging and disease.
