MOTS-C improves metabolism by enhancing insulin sensitivity, increasing muscle glucose uptake, and promoting cellular energy production
Monitoring Progress Effectively: Rather than relying solely on scale weight, which can be misleading due to muscle preservation and fluid fluctuations, comprehensive progress tracking should include body composition analysis (DEXA scan, bioelectrical impedance, or skinfold measurements), circumference measurements (waist, hips, thighs, arms), progress photos taken in consistent lighting and positioning, and subjective measures like energy levels, appetite patterns, and how clothing fits
