Metabolic & Longevity · Reconstitution Calculator

MOTS-C reconstitution calculator.

The only peptide encoded inside your mitochondria — an AMPK activator that signals improved insulin sensitivity and fatty acid oxidation. A 10 mg vial in 2 mL bacteriostatic water gives 5 mg/mL. Most users dose 500–2000 mcg per day.

★ How to reconstitute

Reconstituting MOTS-C, step by step.

  1. 1Draw 2 mL of bacteriostatic water into a 3 mL syringe.
  2. 2Tilt the MOTS-C vial 45° and inject the water slowly down the inside wall.
  3. 3Swirl until the solution is clear — should take seconds.
  4. 4Refrigerate. Use within 4 weeks.
★ FAQ

MOTS-C questions, answered.

How much BAC water for a 10 mg MOTS-C vial?+

2 mL is the standard ratio. That gives you 5 mg/mL — 10 units (0.1 mL) on a U-100 syringe is 0.5 mg (500 mcg), the typical low daily dose.

What's a typical MOTS-C dose?+

Low: 500 mcg/day. Medium: 750 mcg/day. High: 1–2 mg/day. From a 10 mg / 2 mL vial, those are 10, 15, or 20–40 units on a U-100 syringe respectively.

How long does MOTS-C take to work?+

Effects are subtle in week one. Most users feel improved exercise tolerance and stable energy by week 3–4 of consistent daily dosing. Insulin-resistant users typically respond fastest and most.
