CJC-1295 (No DAC), GHRP-2 10mg (Blend)

CJC-1295

GHRP-2 and CJC-1295 stimulate two separate receptors that naturally boost growth hormone (GH) release from the anterior pituitary. CJC-1295 binds to the growth hormone releasing hormone receptor (GHRH) while GHRP-2 binds to the growth hormone secretagogue receptor^[1]. By stimulating two different receptors in two different biochemical pathways that have the same final result, these peptides can work together to boost GH release from the anterior pituitary to levels that could not achieved by either peptide alone.

Both GHRP-2 and CJC-1295 have been tested in a variety of animal models and have shown positive effects on muscle hypertrophy and hyperplasia, cardiac function, and the immune system^[2]–[4]. Both peptides also decrease blood sugar levels and favor lean body mass over fat deposition^[5]. In fact, both peptides are known to stimulate fat loss by boosting metabolism^[6]. This reduction in adipose (fat) tissue has been linked to improved insulin resistance and improvement in cases of type 2 diabetes.

When combined in research studies, these peptides have cooperative effects in at least some of the pathways noted above.
