Metabolic support with MOTS-c
A peptide your mitochondria make naturally to help turn food into energy, studied for metabolism, energy, and how your body responds to exercise.
What to expect
MOTS-c is often part of energy, metabolism, and healthy aging conversations. The program fits into a broader plan that also looks at nutrition, movement, sleep, and labs when appropriate.
- The visit starts with your goals, activity level, energy patterns, and metabolic history
- MOTS-c does not replace exercise, nutrition, sleep, or treatment for metabolic disease
- Your provider may compare MOTS-c with other peptides if another option fits better
- If prescribed, your schedule, dose, instructions, and follow up are individualized
Treatment price is in addition to the visit fee. Confirm the supply and full cost with your provider. Office and telehealth visits are $100.
Does MOTS-c replace working out?
Short answer: no. MOTS-c is a peptide your own body makes when you exercise, and researchers study it as an exercise mimetic. Here is the honest picture of how clients actually use it.
| Option | What it means |
|---|---|
| What it is | A mitochondrial peptide studied for energy metabolism, insulin sensitivity, and exercise like signaling. |
| What it is not | A replacement for training, nutrition, sleep, or medical care for metabolic disease. |
| How clients use it | Alongside a real plan for movement, food, and recovery, not instead of one. |

What a listing means
This information is educational and does not establish that a medication treats, cures, or prevents a disease. Availability depends on clinical appropriateness and provider judgment, and a consultation does not guarantee a prescription.
Your prescription, delivered to your door
When medication is prescribed, it is prepared and dispensed by a state licensed Texas pharmacy that compounds patient specific prescriptions under Section 503A, with both sterile and non sterile compounding services.
Your medication ships directly from the pharmacy to your door. Shipping is included, and orders typically arrive within 3 to 5 business days after pharmacy processing.
Patient specific care under Section 503A
Federal law permits qualifying state licensed pharmacies to prepare medication for an individually identified patient pursuant to a valid prescription when Section 503A requirements are met. These patient specific medications do not go through the FDA premarket approval process used for commercially manufactured drugs. Instead, the pharmacy operates under state pharmacy oversight and applicable federal compounding requirements.
Your provider determines whether a compounded formulation is clinically appropriate after looking at your medical history, available treatments, expected benefits, potential risks, and alternatives.
Questions, answered
How much does MOTS-c cost?
$195 for a 30 day supply, with shipping included when prescribed.
How do I get started?
Start with a $100 telehealth consultation. Your provider reviews your goals, health history, and medications, and decides together with you whether MOTS-c is a clinical fit.
What is MOTS-c?
A mitochondrial derived peptide studied for its relationship to energy metabolism, insulin sensitivity, stress response, and exercise like signaling. We offer it as a provider guided option, not a guaranteed treatment.
Why do people call it an exercise mimetic?
It has been studied for pathways that overlap with some exercise responses. It does not replace exercise, nutrition, sleep, or medical care.
MOTS-c or Tesamorelin / Ipamorelin?
MOTS-c is discussed through a mitochondrial and metabolic lens. Tesamorelin and Ipamorelin are discussed through a growth hormone pathway and body composition lens. Your provider can help decide which conversation fits your goals.
