5 AMINO-1MQ

700.00 AED — In stock

5‑Amino‑1MQ is a small molecule peptide that targets nicotinamide N‑methyltransferase (NNMT), an enzyme linked to fat storage and metabolic slowdown. By inhibiting NNMT activity, 5‑Amino‑1MQ helps increase cellular energy efficiency, reduce fat cell growth, and accelerate fat metabolism. This makes it a powerful tool in body recomposition, weight management, and longevity‑focused programs, as it supports fat reduction while preserving lean muscle mass and enhancing overall metabolic health. Key Features ⚡ Targets NNMT to enhance fat metabolism and reduce fat cell growth🔥 Supports energy efficiency and mitochondrial function💪 Helps preserve lean muscle while promoting fat loss🧬 Enhances NAD+ pathways for cellular repair and longevity📄 Advanced formulation designed for metabolic optimization and performance Key Benefits 🔥 Accelerates Fat Loss – Inhibits NNMT to shrink fat cells and increase fat metabolism⚡ Boosts Energy & Vitality – Improves mitochondrial efficiency for sustained energy💪 Preserves Lean Muscle – Supports fat burning while maintaining muscle tissue🧬 Supports Longevity Pathways – Enhances NAD+ function for cellular repair and anti‑aging🩸 Improves Insulin Sensitivity – Promotes better glucose metabolism and weight management🔄 Promotes Metabolic Flexibility – Helps the body switch efficiently between carbohydrate and fat energy sources Who Can Benefit • Adults seeking accelerated fat loss and metabolic optimization• Individuals focused on weight management and lean muscle preservation• Longevity and anti‑aging enthusiasts• People aiming to improve energy efficiency, insulin sensitivity, and metabolic flexibility Human‑Relevant Research Application 🔬 NNMT inhibition supports improved metabolism and energy balanceStudies show that inhibiting nicotinamide N‑methyltransferase (NNMT) enhances metabolic health by reducing adipose tissue accumulation, improving insulin sensitivity, and promoting better energy utilization. This aligns directly with the mechanism of 5‑Amino‑1MQ, which targets NNMT to support fat loss, metabolic flexibility, and overall metabolic health. 🔗 PubMed reference (NNMT inhibition & metabolic health): https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39161060/

What is 5 AMINO-1MQ?

5-Amino-1MQ is a small molecule, not a peptide. Its full name is 5-amino-1-methylquinolinium. It was developed by researchers at the University of Texas Medical Branch as an inhibitor of an enzyme called nicotinamide N-methyltransferase, or NNMT.

NNMT is found at high levels in fat tissue and is linked to how cells use NAD+ and handle energy. By blocking NNMT, 5-Amino-1MQ is thought to raise NAD+ levels and shift energy use in fat cells. It was designed to pass easily through cell membranes.

Also known as: 5-amino-1-methylquinolinium, 5-amino-1MQ, NNMT inhibitor

What are peptides?

What the research covers

5-Amino-1MQ has been studied in cell and animal research only. In a 2018 study, mice on a high-fat diet given the compound showed lower body weight and fat mass compared with untreated mice, without changes in food intake. Cell studies suggest it can reduce fat cell formation and raise NAD+ levels. Later mouse work has looked at muscle ageing and combined approaches with diet. No published human clinical trials are available, so effects and safety in people are not established. 5-Amino-1MQ is not approved as a medicine by the US FDA.

Frequently asked questions

Is 5-Amino-1MQ a peptide?

No. It is a small molecule that blocks the NNMT enzyme. It is listed alongside peptides because it is prescribed and supplied in the same way.

What does the research show?

Research is limited to cells and animals. Mouse studies suggest it may influence fat mass and NAD+ levels, but there are no published human trials.

What formats are available and how are they stored?

It is available as a pen or a vial. Keep pens in the fridge, and refrigerate vials after reconstitution, away from light. Follow the storage instructions on your pharmacy label.

Are there side effects?

Side effects can occur. Your GP will review your health, medication and, where relevant, blood results before prescribing, and you should report anything unexpected.
