What is CJC-1295 and how does it work?

 

Growth hormone is a natural peptide hormone from your pituitary gland. In young children, it stimulates growth. In adults, it supports muscle mass, fat metabolism, bone health, and heart health. It typically increases during deep sleep in the middle of the night. Also, its levels decline with age, contributing to age-related body fat gain, loss of lean mass, and slowed metabolism.

 

Growth hormone also stimulates IGF-1, which manages the effects of growth hormones. Both hormones work together on tissue and bone growth. IGF-1 weakly binds to insulin receptors and may enhance insulin action. In adults, IGF-1 also protects the blood vessels and neurons, making it important for cardiovascular, and cognitive and mental health.

 

CJC-1295 is the synthetic analog of the first 29 amino acids of growth-hormone releasing hormone (GHRH) or growth hormone secretagogue. In a clinical study, CJC-1295 increased growth hormones (GH) by 2- to 10-fold and insulin growth factor-1 (IGF-1) by 0.5- to 3-fold over the course of 9 to 11 days.

 

Benefits and uses of CJC 1295Promotes muscle growth and fat loss

What is GHRP-2 and how does it work?

 

Growth hormone is a natural peptide hormone from your pituitary gland. In young children, it stimulates growth. In adults, it supports muscle mass, fat metabolism, bone health, and heart health. It typically increases during deep sleep in the middle of the night. Also, its levels decline with age, contributing to age-related body fat gain, loss of lean mass, and slowed metabolism.

 

Growth hormone also stimulates IGF-1, which manages the effects of growth hormones. Both hormones work together on tissue and bone growth. IGF-1 weakly binds to insulin receptors and may enhance insulin action. In adults, IGF-1 also protects the blood vessels and neurons, making it important for cardiovascular health, and cognitive and mental health.

 

GHRPs (growth hormone releasing peptides) can boost natural growth hormone production from the anterior pituitary without the side effects of regular growth hormone supplementation. GHRP-2 is the second strongest GHRP. It binds to the growth hormone secretagogue receptor.

 

Aside from stimulating GH secretion, it stimulates ghrelin (hunger hormone), possibly helping with muscle gains. GHRP-2 also weakly and temporarily increases prolactin, ACTH, and cortisol.

 

Benefits and uses
  • Promotes muscle growth
  • Helps with mood and stress resilience
  • Slows down aging
  • Improves sleep
  • Promotes a balanced inflammatory response
  • Improves bone density
Side effects
  • Redness, itchiness, and swelling of injection sites
  • Stimulates ghrelin receptor and thus appetite (to a lesser extent than GHRP-6)
  • Too high doses of GHRPs or use of GHRPs without cycling can overstimulate their receptors, reducing GH and its effectiveness
  • Prolonged use and oversaturation of receptors may increase anxiety and depression
  • Increases in stress responses through prolactin, and ACTH
  • May cause hypoglycemia
Stacks well with:
  • GHRH and other GHRPs
  • BPC-157 for anabolic and tissue healing benefits
Ways to take:

 

Growth hormone secretagogues are best away from food, either before bed or first thing in the morning. They can be administered subcutaneously, orally, or intranasally.
What is GHRP-6 and how does it work?

 

Growth hormone is a natural peptide hormone from your pituitary gland. In young children, it stimulates growth. In adults, it supports muscle mass, fat metabolism, bone health, and heart health. It typically increases during deep sleep in the middle of the night. Also, its levels decline with age, contributing to age-related body fat gain, loss of lean mass, and slowed metabolism.

 

Growth hormone also stimulates IGF-1, which manages the effects of growth hormones. Both hormones work together on tissue and bone growth. IGF-1 weakly binds to insulin receptors and may enhance insulin action. In adults, IGF-1 also protects the blood vessels and neurons, making it important for cardiovascular, and cognitive and mental health.

 

GHRP-6 is the third most potent GHRP. It doesn’t cause desensitization and also has less prolactin and cortisol issues than GHRP-2. It also binds to ghrelin receptors and stimulates appetite.

 

Benefits and uses
  • Increases ghrelin in the stomach, stimulating hunger and appetite
  • Increases lean mass
  • Restores GH levels in obesity
  • Improves stage 2 sleep
  • Improves joint health
Side effects

What is PE-22-28 and how does it work?

 

PE-22-28 is a 7-amino acid derivative of Spadin, which blocks the TREK-1 channel in the brain. Chronic, unpredictable mild stress increases TREK-1 in the hippocampus, a region that controls mood, memory, and learning. The TREK-1 increase may allow for stress-induced cognitive impairment and low mood, so blocking it seems to preserve cognitive performance and mood during stress. Mice studies showed that PE-22-28 reduced immobility time and delay to eating food. It also boosts neuronal growth and connections, and protects neurons from excitotoxicity.

 

Benefits and uses
  • Improves mood and motivation
  • Induces neurogenesis and synaptogenesis
  • Improves firing rates of serotonin neurons
  • Protects neurons from excess glutamate
  • Improves the brain’s stress resilience

What is PT-141 (bremelanotide) and how does it work?

 

PT-141 is a libido-boosting peptide. It’s a synthetic peptide analog of alpha-MSH, which is a neurohormone in the melanocortin system. It works by activating the MC3R and MC4R receptors in the brain. Intranasal use of this peptide causes erection in many animals and humans. However, PT-141 doesn’t cause the drop in blood pressure, unlike current erectile drugs, suggesting that it doesn’t work through the cardiovascular system.

 

The melanocortin system controls metabolism and appetite, along with heart health, stress response, and sexual function. Alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH) can modulate the nervous and immune systems. It also has anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial activities.

 

In the skin, alpha-MSH also influences skin darkness. However, unlike melanotan 2, PT-141 does not cause skin darkening.

 

Benefits and uses
  • Increases sexual desire, motivation, and arousal across genders
  • Induces erectile response
  • Improves genital sensation and pleasure
  • May help with discomfort and orgasm during intercourse
  • May help with emotional issues around sex

What is tesamorelin and how does it work?

 

Growth hormone is a very important anti-aging hormone that helps with cell growth and metabolic efficiency. It also helps with the production of IGF-1 to reproduce and regenerate cells. But your body has a negative feedback system for growth hormone, so injecting GH leads to too much IGF-1, which accelerates cellular aging.

 

Whereas, growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) gently stimulates the pituitary to release growth hormones without activating the negative feedback. So, you can get the anti-aging, muscle-building, and fat-loss benefits of growth hormone without the side effects of growth hormone injections.

 

Tesamorelin is a GHRH that increases IGF-1 without disrupting its negative feedback loop. It was initially approved to treat HIV-associated lipodystrophy (increase in mid-section fat between organs due to antiretroviral drugs).

 

Benefits and uses
  • Helps with bone density
  • Supports muscle and lipid metabolism
  • Promotes a balanced inflammatory response
  • Supports heart health
  • Helps with fat loss, especially belly fat and dangerous fat between organs
  • Boosts cognitive function

What is Selank (TP-7) and how does it work?
Selank is a 7-amino acid peptide created by joining Tuftsin with another three amino acids to make it more stable. As a synthetic analog of Tuftsin, a 4-amino acid that is part of immunoglobulin G, it has some immune-stimulating effects.
Benefits and uses
  • Anti-ulcer and promotes a strong gut mucosal barrier
  • Promotes healthy relaxation response by increasing the effects of GABA
  • Increases BDNF in the hippocampus, possibly boosting mood and cognitive function
  • Improves sleep vs. wakefulness balance
  • Helps regulate inflammation, especially through IL-6 and helper T cells
  • Regulates monoamine neurotransmitters
  • Regulates BCL-6, which controls T cell-mediated immune responses
  • Supports antiviral immune function
  • Helps with insulin resistance and metabolism
Side effects
Excess doses can lead to desensitization.
Stacks well with:
  • Can be alternate with Semax.
  • Other immune peptides such as TB-500 and thymosin alpha 1.
Ways to take:
Subcutaneous and intranasal
What is Semax and how does it work?

 

Semax is a 7-amino acid peptide that comes from amino acids 4 – 10 of the adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH). Typically, the body produces ACTH as a stress hormone, but Semax in particular has many unique properties, such as stimulating neuronal growth and immune function. It’s said to induce the good parts of stress, such as the high and enhanced performance, without the anxiety. So, you can perform and learn with minimal resistance and procrastination.

 

As a melanocortin, it acts at many places throughout the body, which is why it helps with the immune system, gut health, and brain function.

 

N-acetyl semax is a synthetic form that is better absorbed and can better cross the blood-brain barrier.

 

Benefits and uses
  • Increases BDNF
  • Increases dopamine and serotonin signaling, boosting mood and motivation
  • Improves stress resilience and promotes a balanced stress response
  • Blocks melanocortin receptors (MC3R and MC4R)
  • Boosts immune function efficiency
  • Protects neurons and supports neuronal healing
  • Supports the healing processes of the stomach lining
  • May be used preventively
  • Thins the blood
  • Improves physical performance and adaptation to high-intensity exercise
  • Improves memory, focus, attention span, and verbal fluency
  • Improves blood flow to the brain
  • May block pain signaling through enkephalin
  • Protects delicate neurons in the eyes
  • May facilitate lucid dreaming
  • May potentiate other stimulants
  • Boosts confidence and wellbeing
  • Antioxidant properties
Side effects
  • Excess and prolonged use can lead to desensitization.
  • Hair loss
  • The effects tend to last a few hours. Susceptible people may feel low mood and motivation once the effects wear off, so people with pre-existing mental health conditions should consult their physician before use
Stacks well with:
  • other nootropic peptides such as cerebrolysin
  • May be alternated with Selank
Ways to take:

 

Subcutaneous and intranasal
What is Sermorelin and how does it work?

 

Sermorelin is a “growth hormone-releasing hormone” (GHRH) that is produced naturally by the human brain to stimulate production and release of growth hormone by the pituitary gland. The increased volume of human growth hormone (hGH) causes an increase in the production of Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 by the liver. During aging, GHRH declines causing a decrease in the secretion of pituitary hGH which leads to growth insufficiency which can erode health & vitality. Benefits may include:. 

 

Benefits and uses
  • Increase of lean body mass 
  • Reduction of body fat through lipolysis
  • Increase of strength and endurance
  • Accelerated healing from wounds or surgery
  • Improvement of sleep quality
Side effects

 

No side effects of Sermorelin have been reported.

 

Stacks well with:

 

 BPC-157 And GHK-Cu

 

Ways to take:
  • Subcutaneous
  • Oral
  • Intranasal
