5-AMINO-1MQ 10 mg

5-Amino-1-methylquinolinium (5-Amino-1MQ) is a small-molecule compound primarily researched as a selective inhibitor of the enzyme nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT).

Key Functions and Mechanisms

• Metabolism & Fat Loss: By blocking NNMT, 5-Amino-1MQ helps increase cellular levels of NAD+, which is critical for energy production. This shift encourages cells to burn fat for fuel rather than store it, potentially reducing the size of fat cells and visceral fat without affecting appetite.

• Muscle Preservation: Research indicates it may help prevent age-related muscle loss (sarcopenia) and support muscle repair by improving mitochondrial function within muscle tissue.

• Anti-Aging Synergy: It is often paired with NAD+ to slow down the depletion of NAD+, potentially enhancing longevity and cellular repair.
