#26 Your mitochondria run the engine. MOTS-C keep it firing.
from Peptalk: Peptides Unpacked Hosted by Dr. Kylie Burton & Jessica Briecke
MOTS-C is a peptide your mitochondria actually produce — a native signal that tells your cells to pull in glucose, burn fat, and build new energy infrastructure. When that signal fades with age, the results are familiar: stubborn weight, sluggish energy, brain fog, and workouts that stop paying off. This episode breaks down exactly how MOTS-C flips your body's master energy switch, AMPK, in plain English — no biology degree required. We cover who benefits most, from blood sugar swings and weight plateaus to athletic performance and longevity, and why women in menopause are finding it especially powerful without touching hormones. We also answer the question everyone's thinking: are peptides even natural? Spoiler — your body's been making them all along. By the end you'll know: Why mitochondrial decline tracks directly with aging and metabolism How to pair MOTS-C with training, nutrition, and sleep for compounding results Which labs and performance cues to track progress This isn't a miracle. It's a map — rooted in how your cells already work. MOTS-C just became available this month — it's next for Jess and I. Get it on your list. Where do you start with peptide therapy?
