How Does Ipamorelin Affect the Body?

Ipamorelin is the newest muscle building peptide supplement in the body building and athletic markets.  The peptide is synthetically produced and releases maximum amounts of growth hormone. The growth hormone that is released from the peptides of Ipamorelin is one of the strongest seen on the market to date, pertaining to muscle growth and weight loss.

Ipamorelin, being a newly synthetic supplement on the market, is still being studied and under research for its effects on the body and how it works so well to produce muscle gain and weight loss. So far the findings for its effect on muscle growth are very positive. When Ipamorelin peptides release growth hormones, the cells go straight to the muscle to support its larger development and seems to steer clear of any possible bone or cartilage distortions. Researchers have also found that Ipamoelin does not decrease your body’s natural production of growth hormone. So your own individual growth hormone works as well, maximizing your muscle growth benefits.

Ipamorelin, has also been shown not to make one hungry. This of course is where the weight loss factor comes in. So not only does this new “miracle” supplement build muscle it helps you lose unwanted fat at the same time. Ipamorelin when injected in 200 -300 mcg amounts, releases very slowly in the body. This again maximizes the length it stays and works to help ward off hunger and build muscle. Another benefit of its slow release method is that it does not suddenly raise ones Cortisol and Prolactin levels, which leads to better results again.

While Ipamorelin seems like the next miracle drug for athletes and body builders, it does have a couple of discovered side effects such as a head rush feeling and headaches. It is best to start your supplementation of this compound at its lowest dose and build up if needed. It is also suggested that it be injected thirty to forty-five minutes before working out. By injecting Ipmorelin and then working out, when your body naturally produces its own growth hormone, one is getting the double benefit of both growth hormones working together, again maximizing results.

So Ipamorelin seems to be all the buzz within the exercise and health industries for a good reason. With little to no side effects and working along with one’s own body’s growth hormones, Ipamorelin fights off hunger while maximizing one’s overall muscle gains and prolonged post-workout success. More research and studies are regularly being done on this new compound but so far it seems as if the health and excursive industries have hit gold.

Building Muscle with Growth Hormone Releasing Peptides

Growth hormone can be a very confusing subject to those who don't take the short time it takes to understand how it works in our body, how it is released in our body, and how we as people can manipulate these secretions.

For those that do some research and learn how to use these powerful compounds, the potential to create new muscle is unlimited. Peptides are here to become the next generation of performance enhancement and muscle building compounds. Taking a short time to  gain an understanding about how they work, will be the key to gaining huge amounts of muscle and untold brute strength, while burning bodyfat permanently. First, lets take a look at out bodies normal GH, how it is released, and the benefits it has on us.

Growth Hormone is a 191-amino acid polypeptide that is produced naturally in our body by our anterior pituitary. HGH is a protein that stimulates the body cells to increase both in size, as well as undergo more rapid cell division than usual. It enhances the movement of amino acids through cell membranes and also increases the rate at which these cells convert these molecules into proteins. It also increases the body's IGF levels, which is most likely the sole reason for reported muscle gains in users, and IGF is well known for muscle and cartilage repair. This growth hormone, called Somatotropin, is different then the normal HGH that we think of when we think of bodybuilder and athletes using GH for performance enhancement. HGH is really rHGH, or "recombinant HGH" which means it was made using DNA technology. This rHGH is called Somatropin, and is what is found being sold on the black market to bodybuilders and athletes. Now here's the sad part, almost all of the black market rHGH today is not the 191 amino rHGH that you are expecting to put into your body. True, 191 amino HGH is 22kda in weight, and I can almost guarantee you wont find that in the fridge of any of your local gym rats. Companies have removed aminos from the chain, as 191 aminos is a very long and difficult chain to produce. Many producers have found that folding the amino chain over on top of itself to shorten it work to their benefit. Either way, when you inject rHGH into your body, you are introducing a sub-part substitute to your natural GH and may eventually effect or inhibit your natural producing of that quality GH.

GROWTH HORMONE RELEASING HEXAPEPTIDE
So what can be done about this? This is where the new peptides come in, GHRP and GHRH. First we will look at GHRP(6). GHRP, or Growth Hormone Releasing Hexapeptide, is a GH secretagogues peptide. What does that mean? Well, when introduced into our body, GHRP induces our pituitary to secrete GH. What is more interesting is that it does it from a completely different receptor then GHRH does (we will get to GHRH later). These GHRP secretagogues act like synthetic ghrelinmimetics (keyword being mimetics). This is the reason for hunger reported with GHRP use, because ghrelin is naturally released by the stomach lining to induce hunger in humans. Because GHRP stimulates our natural secretion from the pituitary, we are getting the top quality, 191 amino GH in our bodies... no gimmicks and no substitutes. We are getting elevated levels of this, and the best part is it is being produced by our own body. rHGH use has been known to inhibit natural production, and GHRP has been used to restart a persons natural production. Other peptides that fall into the GHRP category are hexarelin, and Ipamorelin.

GROWTH HORMONE RELEASING HORMONE
On the other side, saturating a totally different receptor, we have GHRH. A growth hormone releasing hormone is a 44 amino peptide that is produced and our hypothalamus, and sent down to our pituitary to stimulate the growth hormone releasing hormone receptor (GHRH-r) as a signal to start producing GH. An added benefit of GHRH is that it promotes slow-wave sleep directly, and can stimulate the pituitary alongside of a GHRP. An example of a GHRH would be CJC-195. Besides the advantage of our own natural GH, another advantage of CJC is that it has a much more prolonged effect on our GH levels in the body (increased half-life).

DOSING
So now, we move onto dosing. We will start with  - GHRP-6. I like using GHRP-6 post workout, before my meal. It helps me increase my nutrition uptake, and it is also great at that time because I pin IGF pre workout (which is on the negative feedback loop), so pinning GHRP later will keep your body up and producing GH naturally and working with your natural IGF. Also, mid day is when your GH levels are at their lowest, so this is an optimal time to pulse. Dosing ranges from the minimal 100mcg, to what I take, 500mcg. For a GHRH, we want to pretty much base it off the same time schedule, but days taken will be a little different. For CJC1295 DAC, we want to dose it from 1mg to 2mg per week, splitting the dose up in half and taking them 3 days apart. For example, 1mg on Monday and 1mg on Thursday is a fine and effective protocol. As for all the others, GHRP-2, hexarelin, Ipamorelin, CJC no-DAC well you're capable of researching them on your own. For even better results, we can pulse GHRP while we have CJC in our systems, hitting our pituitary from both types of receptors, and keeping it doing its natural GH pulse. For this reason supplementing a GHRP with a GHRH yields great results.
