IGF-1 DES (1-3)
10x more potent IGF-1 variant with very short half-life. Inject directly into target muscle for localized growth before it clears.
CJC-1295 with DAC
Long-lasting growth hormone booster. The DAC modification keeps it active for days, producing steady GH elevation for muscle growth, fat loss, and recovery.
GHRP-2
Stronger GH release than GHRP-6, with more moderate appetite increase. Raises both GH and IGF-1, though it can slightly bump cortisol and prolactin.
IGF-1 LR3
Modified IGF-1 with extended half-life. Can create new muscle cells (not just enlarge existing ones), making it one of the most potent muscle-building peptides.
Follistatin 344
Blocks myostatin — the protein that caps muscle growth. May allow muscles to grow beyond typical limits, though human data is very limited.
Ipamorelin/CJC-1295 Blend
Pre-mixed Ipamorelin + CJC-1295 combo. Works through complementary pathways for strong, clean GH release. The gold standard starter stack for GH optimization.
PEG-MGF (Mechano Growth Factor)
Long-lasting growth factor released when muscles are damaged during exercise. Activates dormant muscle stem cells for repair and growth. Best used post-training.
CJC-1295 (no DAC) / Mod GRF 1-29
Shorter-acting GH booster that releases growth hormone in natural pulses. Clears faster without DAC, so it's usually paired with another GH peptide for stronger effect.
Ipamorelin
One of the cleanest GH boosters. Stimulates growth hormone release without affecting cortisol or prolactin, meaning fewer side effects than other GH peptides.
Best Synergy Combos
Mitochondrial-axis overlap. SS-31 binds cardiolipin to stabilize inner-membrane structure; NAD+ is the redox substrate for sirtuin and electron-transport flux. Together they target the same organelle through complementary nodes (structure + cofactor pool).
Vasculogenic-repair convergence. BPC-157 upregulates VEGFR-2 and stabilizes endothelial NO synthase; TB-500 (Tβ4 fragment) drives actin-monomer mobilization and fibroblast migration. Different cellular roles in the same wound-bed cascade.
GHRH × GHRP convergence on the somatotroph. CJC-1295 (GHRH analog) primes the pituitary; ipamorelin (selective GHRP) triggers GH release without ACTH or prolactin elevation.
GH-axis pairing. Tesamorelin is an FDA-approved GHRH analog (HIV-associated lipodystrophy indication); AOD-9604 is a GH C-terminal fragment with lipolytic activity in preclinical models (Phase IIb missed obesity endpoint).
