Description
AICAR (5-Aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide) is a naturally occurring nucleotide intermediate and potent AMPK activator. Once inside the cell, it converts to ZMP — an AMP analog that switches on AMPK, the body’s master energy sensor. Preclinical research highlights its potential for improving insulin sensitivity, boosting fat oxidation, promoting mitochondrial biogenesis, and enhancing endurance capacity. Currently for research use only.
