🏋️Muscle Growth & Performance
Peptides that promote lean muscle mass, strength gains, and athletic performance through mechanisms like growth hormone release, protein synthesis, and muscle fiber recovery.
GHRP-2
Relevance: 10/10Growth Hormone SecretagogueA synthetic hexapeptide growth hormone secretagogue considered to offer the best balance of potency and side effect profile among the GHRP family.
Epitalon
Relevance: 10/10Anti-Aging / Longevity PeptideA synthetic tetrapeptide based on the natural epithalamin peptide from the pineal gland, studied for its ability to activate telomerase and potentially slow cellular aging.
Hexarelin
Relevance: 10/10Growth Hormone SecretagogueA synthetic hexapeptide growth hormone secretagogue that potently stimulates GH release through the ghrelin receptor, with additional cardioprotective properties.
CJC-1295 (with DAC)
Relevance: 9/10Growth Hormone Secretagogue (GHRH Analog)A long-acting growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) analog with a Drug Affinity Complex that extends its half-life to 6-8 days, producing sustained elevated growth hormone and IGF-1 levels.
Ipamorelin
Relevance: 8/10Growth Hormone Secretagogue (GHRP)A highly selective growth hormone-releasing peptide (GHRP) that stimulates GH release with minimal impact on cortisol, prolactin, or appetite, making it the cleanest GHRP available.
MK-677 (Ibutamoren)
Relevance: 8/10Growth Hormone Secretagogue (Non-Peptide, Oral GHS)An orally active, non-peptide growth hormone secretagogue that mimics ghrelin to raise GH and IGF-1 levels for up to 24 hours per dose, with notable effects on sleep, appetite, and body composition.
CJC-1295 (no DAC) / Mod GRF 1-29
Relevance: 8/10Growth Hormone Secretagogue (GHRH Analog)A modified growth hormone-releasing hormone fragment with a short half-life (~30 minutes) that stimulates pulsatile growth hormone release, closely mimicking the body's natural GH secretion pattern.
Tesamorelin
Relevance: 7/10Growth Hormone Secretagogue (GHRH Analogue)An FDA-approved synthetic analogue of growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) with a trans-3-hexenoic acid modification, indicated for HIV-associated lipodystrophy and studied for cognitive benefits and visceral fat reduction.
Sermorelin
Relevance: 6/10Growth Hormone Secretagogue (GHRH Analog)The first 29 amino acids of natural GHRH, previously FDA-approved for pediatric GH deficiency. Now widely used off-label for anti-aging GH optimization as a safer alternative to direct HGH therapy.
GHRP-6
Relevance: 5/10Growth Hormone Secretagogue (Ghrelin Mimetic)A synthetic hexapeptide growth hormone secretagogue that stimulates GH release through the ghrelin receptor (GHS-R1a), notable for its potent GH-releasing effects and strong appetite stimulation.
AOD 9604
Relevance: 5/10Fat Loss / Metabolic PeptideA modified fragment of human growth hormone (amino acids 176-191) that stimulates lipolysis and inhibits lipogenesis without the diabetogenic or growth-promoting effects of full-length HGH.
Gonadorelin
Relevance: 4/10Reproductive / Hormonal PeptideThe endogenous hypothalamic decapeptide that controls reproductive hormone release, used clinically for fertility treatment and diagnostics, and in TRT protocols to maintain testicular function.
HGH Fragment 176-191
Relevance: 4/10Fat Loss / Metabolic PeptideA modified fragment of human growth hormone (amino acids 176-191) that specifically promotes fat metabolism and lipolysis without the growth-promoting or diabetogenic effects of full HGH.
Kisspeptin-10
Relevance: 4/10Reproductive / Hormonal PeptideA 10-amino acid fragment of kisspeptin that is the most potent endogenous stimulator of GnRH release, playing a critical role in reproductive hormone regulation and fertility.
5-Amino-1MQ
Relevance: 3/10Metabolic / Fat Loss Compound (NNMT Inhibitor)A small molecule NNMT (nicotinamide N-methyltransferase) inhibitor that promotes fat loss by increasing NAD+ levels and cellular energy metabolism, available as an oral compound.
Tesofensine
Relevance: 3/10Weight Loss / CNS Compound (Triple Reuptake Inhibitor)A triple monoamine reuptake inhibitor (serotonin, norepinephrine, dopamine) originally developed for Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease, repurposed as a potent weight-loss agent.
