Ipamorelin
What is Ipamorelin?
Ipamorelin is a synthetic peptide belonging to the class of growth hormone secretagogues (GHSs). It works by stimulating the release of growth hormone (GH) from the pituitary gland in a pulsatile manner, similar to the body’s natural GH-releasing hormone (GHRH). Ipamorelin primarily acts on the ghrelin/growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHS-R), promoting the production and release of growth hormone.
This peptide is often used for its potential benefits in promoting muscle growth, fat loss, and overall well-being. It is also sought after for its comparatively mild side effect profile and lower likelihood of causing desensitization compared to other GHSs. However, like any peptide or medication, its use should be supervised by a qualified healthcare professional.
Indications of Ipamorelin:
- Improve sleep quality
- Increase bone density
- Increase muscle mass
- Improve skin elasticity
- Regenerate nerve tissues
- Strengthen the immune system
- Improve memory
