5-Amino-1MQ: dosing, timing and what to expect

A small-molecule NNMT inhibitor, not a peptide. Blocking NNMT in fat cells raises cellular NAD+ and increases metabolic rate in animal models.

Also known as 5-Amino-1-methylquinolinium

What to expect

Most people tolerate 5-Amino-1MQ well. Here is what is worth knowing going in, so nothing catches you by surprise.

The data here is animal work, and no human trial has been funded — which is a statement about who pays for research on unpatentable molecules, not a verdict on the compound. It is sold as a supplement without being a recognised dietary ingredient, so quality varies a lot by source. Community use is still young, so treat reported doses as a starting point rather than a settled protocol.

Preparing it

5-Amino-1MQ does not need reconstituting — it comes ready to use. Not applicable — oral capsule.
