Stacking Module

5-Amino-1MQ Stacking Module

5-Amino-1MQ is an NNMT inhibitor and, like SLU-PP-332, a small molecule rather than a peptide. Its stacking module carries an additional warning that applies to almost nothing else here: specific-sounding human pharmacokinetic figures circulate for it that could not be verified in any peer-reviewed source.

How to think about stacking 5-Amino-1MQ

  • 5-Amino-1MQ is a small-molecule NNMT inhibitor, not a peptide. Its predominant reported route is oral capsule or powder, not injection.
  • Efficacy data are mouse-only. A 2021 peer-reviewed review states explicitly that no NNMT-targeted clinical trials have been reported.
  • Specific half-life and oral-bioavailability figures attributed to a 'University of Vienna human PK study' circulate on commercial sites and could not be located in PubMed, PMC or any peer-reviewed source. Treat them as marketing.
  • No controlled trial has studied it combined with anything.

Combinations in detail

Metabolic / longevity stack

5-Amino-1MQ + MOTS-c
Why it is proposed
NNMT inhibition and AMPK activation are different metabolic mechanisms, so the pairing is not redundant on mechanism.
What is reported in practice
Reported concurrently; note the route difference — 5-Amino-1MQ predominantly oral, MOTS-c injected.
Cautions specific to this combination
MOTS-c has thin human data and 5-Amino-1MQ has effectively none. The pairing's confident framing online is not supported.

Body Recomposition Stack

5-Amino-1MQ + SLU-PP-332
Why it is proposed
Two metabolic small molecules with different targets, both discussed orally.
What is reported in practice
Reported together in body-composition discussion.
Cautions specific to this combination
Both are preclinical-only. This is the least-evidenced pairing in the metabolic group.

What to avoid, and why

  • Citing the unverified 'University of Vienna' pharmacokinetic figures — they contradict the peer-reviewed statement that no NNMT clinical trials have been reported.
  • Forcing it into an injection protocol; the reported predominant route is oral, and reconstitution examples for it should be read as concentration math rather than route guidance.
  • Treating mouse efficacy data as translatable to human dosing.
