AICAR is a research peptide that acts as a powerful activator of AMPK (adenosine monophosphate–activated protein kinase), the master regulator of cellular energy balance. By simulating low-energy states within the cell, AICAR enhances glucose uptake, increases fat oxidation, and promotes mitochondrial efficiency. It has been studied for its ability to mimic some of the effects of exercise at the molecular level.
AMPK Activation: Triggers pathways that improve energy regulation.
Glucose Uptake: Enhances glucose transport into muscle cells, independent of insulin.
Fat Oxidation: Promotes the breakdown of fatty acids for energy.
Mitochondrial Support: Encourages mitochondrial biogenesis and function.
Improved endurance and stamina.
Increased fat metabolism and body composition support.
Enhanced insulin sensitivity and glucose management.
Cellular resilience through optimized energy regulation.
Exercise performance enhancement.
Metabolic health and weight management studies.
Longevity and mitochondrial efficiency research.
Animal studies: 0.25–0.5 mg/g/day in mice or rats → very high compared to any practical human use.
Sports-doping cases (WADA reports): anecdotal self-use around 250–500 mg per day, usually in short cycles (5–7 days), but these are unregulated and associated with risks.
Research-only low-dose protocols: some experimental setups use 0.5–1.0 mg per day in humans for exploratory metabolic research, but data is sparse and not standardized.
⚠️ Key point: There is no clinically validated or safe “recommended” human dose. Any daily amounts reported online are experimental or anecdotal.
