By inhibiting NNMT, 5-Amino-1MQ has been observed in models to elevate NAD+, activate downstream metabolic regulators, and support pathways that encourage higher energy expenditure and reduced adiposity
Additionally, its ability to optimize energy utilization may help maintain lean muscle mass during weight loss
IV doses of 25-400 mcg/kg for safety studies Important: These are experimental doses used in animal studies and cannot be extrapolated to other species due to significant differences in metabolism, pharmacokinetics, receptor expression, peptide degradation rates, and tissue distribution patterns
