Is Creatine Bad for Your Kidneys? Here’s What The Science Says…
While this is an “anabolic” group usually dealing with things like steroids, sarms, prohormones and peptides, I feel it would be a dereliction of duty to not occasionally address what should be staples in the life of every bodybuilder and fitness enthusiast… and in this case I am talking about Creatine!
Creatine is anabolic… In a big way!
Creatine is a compound that comes from three amino acids. It is found mostly in your body’s muscles as well as in the brain. Most people get creatine through seafood and red meat — though at levels far below those found in synthetically made supplements.
Benefits of Creatine
Muscle gain
Brain function
Enhances brain function
Enhances muscle volumization
Exercise performance
Better athletic performance
Benefits strength
Blood sugar control
Many of you have asked about Creatine’s kidney safety. After all, it appears to be one of the biggest hesitations, and a new study tried to settle the debate once and for all.
Scientists used one of the most advanced forms of statistical analysis and found creatine supplementation does not harm kidney function.
Researchers conducted a Mendelian randomization analysis—a technique that minimizes confounding variables—to explore whether increased creatine levels have any causal effect on renal function. Instead of relying on traditional observational studies (which can be influenced by lifestyle factors), this method allowed scientists to examine markers associated with creatine metabolism and their relationship to kidney health.
Even when people used larger doses, there was no relationship between higher levels and kidney function. This supports previous clinical trials showing that supplementation does not harm kidney health in healthy individuals, even with long-term use.
However, if you have pre-existing kidney disease, it’s always best to consult your doctor before supplementing.
Creatine is experiencing a renaissance because of the overwhelming amount of research suggesting many potential health benefits. It’s not just that it can make you stronger or help you build muscle, but it might also improve brain health, fight against cognitive disorders, and even improve focus and attention when you’re sleep-deprived.
There are many versions of creatine, but monohydrate is, by far, the most tested and trusted form.
Even when people used larger doses, there was no relationship between higher levels and kidney function.
So, with all of the muscle building, strength and power increasing benefits you can derive from the use of Creatine… this suggests that NOT to use it is a huge disservice to yourself in the quest for muscle mass, stamina and strength.
If you’d like to know where to get a very high quality Creatine product, as well as Protein and other similar products… just send me a message and I’d be happy to share!
The latest health trend feels like a way to cut the excess and put your energy into the things that matter.
But it’s all a dangerous illusion.
Instead of cutting out the BS, you’re told you’re not doing enough, and more is the antidote.
The wellness industry is overflowing with fear-based recommendations designed to create knee-jerk reactions.
You’re so busy playing whack-a-mole to the threats lurking in every food and behavior that you don’t have the time to question if you’re really in danger or if the new changes you’re making are making you better.
❝ Most optimization programs give you a mop to clean up a spill without ever considering what caused the leak.
Meat is dangerous, but so are some vegetables. Seed oils are to blame for everything, even though some of the longest-living populations consume seed oils regularly. We blame “hormone imbalances,” and yet few people test their hormones or understand what a hormone imbalance would really do to your body. Some people say high-intensity exercise will raise cortisol too much, while others suggest that walking isn’t even exercise.
And yet, all of this is strangely familiar. The difference is that technology and social media cause you to consume all the conflicting, confusing information at an unsustainable and overwhelming pace.
The solution is “optimization.” But it’s missing the most important ingredients to help you unlock optimal health.
Most optimization programs give you a mop to clean up a spill without ever considering what caused the leak.
It’s almost too easy to convince you that you’re failing at health without considering your individual needs.
If you’re tired of reacting to everything, “the Kick Test” is something I’ve used for more than 20 years as a truth serum.
It’s based on the famous quote from Bruce Lee,
“I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times.”
The Kick Test helps you get closer to mastery by limiting what you’re doing to improve your health and helping you build bulletproof behaviors.
When it comes to health, more is not more. And complication is not a sign of effectiveness.
❝ If you want to be optimized, sometimes it helps to be minimized in the name of mastery.
Optimization has missed out on a glorious opportunity to minimize instead of maximize.
We celebrate 27-step morning routines and complex behaviors as the only way to improve your health.
But, as Arnold Schwarzenegger would say, “It’s all bogus.”
Complication might seem like the best way to leave no stone unturned, but it’s a distraction. Instead, it’s far better to focus on small behaviors with asymmetrical upside.
People are doing more and more, so they tend to become less efficient and effective. And it’s why many feel over-stressed and overwhelmed by their health plans.
The truth?
You don’t need more exercise variety. You need to be able to perform a few exercises incredibly well.You don’t need endless sets and reps. You need to push yourself with maximum intensity and chase the hard reps.You don’t need to eat all the super foods. You need to find a few nutrient-dense foods you can eat repeatedly and consistently.You don’t need a long morning or evening routine. You need to find something that helps you start and end the day in a way where you feel good — which is determined on an individual level, not some global ideal.You don’t need a complicated sleep routine. Find something that helps you wind down — even if it’s some form of entertainment — and let that set the stage to help you doze off into peaceful slumber. If you’ve done everything, you can look into other purchases that might help, but only if you’ve put time and energy into the basics.
The Kick Test is simple and invaluable because it helps you focus on “one kick” instead of 10,000. Here’s how it works:
The Kick Test
Step 1: Identify the problem(s) you’re experiencing with your health.
If you’re going to improve, you must honestly assess what is wrong.
Step 2: Determine what you are doing to fix those problems.
Make a list of what you’re doing to solve what you found in step 1. It might be nothing; it might be everything. Just be honest.
Step 3: Acknowledge why you have chosen those actions.
Is it based on a real test (you got blood work done or did a movement screen), or is it based on suggestion and manipulation? (An influencer told you that your hormones weren’t balanced in the absence of any real data)
Step 4: Ask yourself, “What is the one behavior I can consistently do that will also have the most upside?”
This is a two-part question. Consistency is the most important variable of success. But if you consistently do something that moves pebbles instead of boulders, you’re putting in a lot of effort for something that won’t have a significant impact. I’ve met many people who have punished themselves by fasting in the name of “autophagy” when they could’ve seen similar outcomes by just restricting daily calories or resistance training more frequently.
Step 5: Minimize, re-focus, and master
Once you have the one thing, your job is to turn that into a habit that feels automatic, and then measure if your life improves. Remember, mastery takes time. It’s not a day or a week. You might spend months mastering one habit and then add another.
You will be tempted to add more, but you don’t need 10,000 kicks. You need one kick you’ve practiced 10,000 times. I’ll give you a few examples of my “one kick.”
Diet: I don’t struggle with protein, but I do with fiber. So that’s been all I’ve focused on to help me manage hunger. Every meal has fiber. I also find ways that are easiest for me to squeeze in fiber. It can be a high-fiber wrap. A powder into a protein shake. Vegetables baked into meals. The idea is to find something I enjoy and then make fiber a part of what I like.
Exercise: Walking used to be my kryptonite. I did not move at all outside of the gym.. Now, I have a calendar reminder throughout the day that forces me to get up and move. It’s a non-negotiable. I make it work, first hitting an average of 7,000 daily steps three years ago, then 10,000 per day two years ago, and finally 11,000+ steps daily last year without a thought (And just five years ago, I averaged 3,000 steps per day).
Sleep: I didn’t realize it, but my late-night snacking affected my sleep. I don’t struggle with falling asleep, but I would wake up, and my sleep quality wasn’t as good. So I have hard rules (closed kitchen) about when I eat my last meal. I don’t over-stress or worry about anything else. I just try to be good about when I stop eating and drinking relative to when I sleep.
Are there more things I can do? Sure. But every additional effort or stress could have a cost, as well. So, I have to weigh my efforts vs. my outcomes, as well as what I want to accomplish.
I know my health goals and frustrations, and I understand that optimization isn’t about perfection; it’s about feeling better, performing well, and making sure I don’t have glaring weaknesses that hold me back.
If at any time I start to struggle, I do another kick test, see where I need to improve, identify where I’m wasting effort, and get back to leaning into mastery.
It rarely looks impressive. It won’t get clicks on social media. But it’s an incredibly effective way to deliver results and feel better without burning out or losing your mind. And that sounds pretty optimal to me.
Some people use biological age to determine how well you’re aging. Others use strength metrics like grip strength or pushups. But your bedroom activity might be another option.
New research suggests that frequent (safe) sex is associated with a lower risk of cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality.
Scientists analyzed the health outcomes of more than 17,000 people over 11 years.
The research suggests that those who engage in sexual activity less than 12 times per year have the highest risk for cardiovascular disease.
While we can’t assume cause and effect, regular sexual activity is linked to several health benefits, including reduced stress, improved blood circulation, and better heart rate variability—all factors associated with cardiovascular health. Additionally (all jokes aside), sexual activity can be a form of physical exercise, helping to maintain a healthy weight and improve metabolic function.
A slow sex life could be a sign of another health issue. Low testosterone, which can reduce sex drive and activity, is associated with higher levels of cholesterol and inflammation, which can also lead to a higher risk of cardiovascular disease.
And it might not be about having the best sex life, but just making sure you have some sex life.
The protective effect was most noticeable in those engaging in sexual activity at least once a week.
However, there did not appear to be additional health benefits for those who had sex more than 100 times per year.
Peptides help build muscle by increasing protein synthesis, releasing growth hormone, and repairing tissue. However, peptides for muscle growth are not a magic solution and should be used intelligently and responsibly. We encourage you to always seek out the guidance of a professional who has experience with the use of peptides for these purposes. We welcome your inquiries on this subject here! You should also maintain a healthy lifestyle with proper nutrition and exercise.
Some peptides that may help with muscle growth include:
Ipamorelin – Stimulates the pituitary gland to release growth hormone, which can promote muscle growth and reduce body fat.
BPC-157 – Made of amino acids, BPC-157 can help increase cell growth, reduce pain and inflammation, and burn fat.
CJC-1295 – A synthetic peptide that increases growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) levels, which stimulates the pituitary gland to release more growth hormone.
Sermorelin – A synthetic peptide that stimulates growth hormone release, which can increase muscle mass, reduce body fat, and improve energy levels.
CJC 1295 and Ipamorelin – A combination of two peptides that work together to stimulate growth hormone release and promote protein synthesis.
IGF-1 – A peptide hormone that regulates the growth and development of muscle tissue.
MK-677 is yet another great peptide that can help build muscle!
There are others that are possible, plus you can also stack certain Steroids and Sarms with your peptides to arrive at the perfect cycle for your goals.
Do peptides actually work for muscle growth?
Peptides are chains of amino acids, while steroids are ring-shaped fatty molecules. Both can help you build muscle and burn body fat, but they do it through different processes.
Our Thoughts On the Subject
We feel that peptides are an effective and safer way to build muscle if you want to use an anabolic aide. And while they will not produce quite as many gains as most Steroids or Sarms… they do definitely work!
I would recommend to always get products that will cover the 3 basic needs for a complete and complimentary stack… those being: You should get a product to increase Testosterone, and another product that will boost HGH, and we also recommend another anabolic (most likely an oral) to round out the trio.
To recap, use a: Testosterone – HGH – Anabolic
We have found the best results typically result from following this basic formula, and of course, these recommendations can be tweaked and adjusted to suit YOUR individual needs!
If you’d like help in creating a plan that will work for you and your personal goals… feel free to CONTACT US for help. We will be more than happy to assist you to get on the right track to be sure you are getting what would be best for your goals!
Tirzepatide is a synthetic derivative of gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP) that has simultaneous glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) functionality as well. This combination allows Tirzepatide (Mounjaro) to lower blood glucose levels, increase insulin sensitivity, boost feelings of satiety, and accelerate weight loss.
Tirzepatide was developed to fight type 2 diabetes, but has additionally been shown to protect the cardiovascular system and act as a potent weight loss agent.
Benefits of Tirzepatide
Decreases blood sugar
Reduces hunger
Reduces body fat
Dosage Information
Doses start at the 2.5 mg dose once weekly; after 4 weeks on the 2.5 mg dose, increase to the 5 mg dose once weekly. If higher doses are required, increase by 2.5 mg increments after at least 4 weeks at the current dose. The maximum dose is 15 mg once weekly.
Tirzepatide
Tirzepatide is a synthetic analogue of gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP) that was developed for its ability to stimulate insulin release and thus address both type 2 diabetes and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. Made up of 39 amino acids, the relatively large Tirzepatide (Mounjaro) stimulates the release of insulin from the pancreas by binding to both GIP and GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) receptors. Taken over longer periods of time, Tirzepatide increases adiponectin levels by as much as 26% as well[1]. Research shows that Tirzepatide reduces feelings of hunger, lowers insulin levels, and increases insulin sensitivity. Taken together, these effects cause significant weight loss of 11 kg (25 lbs), improve glucose tolerance, decrease fat (adipose) tissue, and reduce cardiovascular risk.
What Does It Do?
Tirzepatide increases the release of insulin from the pancreas resulting in improved glucose control. Research shows that, in individuals with Type 2 diabetes, Tirzepatide (Mounjaro) decreases hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels by 2.4% after six months. The peptide also appears to aid in weight loss, showing a dose-dependent relationship and helping individuals lose as much as 11 kg (25 lbs) over six months.
It isn’t just that Tirzepatide increases insulin release though. Research suggests that the peptide actually improves the function of pancreatic beta cells, the cells that make and release insulin. Studies suggest that Tirzepatide may actually make beta cells more effective at processing insulin, which leads not just to increases in insulin levels in the bloodstream, but decreased stress on the beta cells themselves. This may, in turn, help to slow the progressive nature of type 2 diabetes.
Research shows that Tirzepatide doesn’t just increase insulin levels at random though it appears to do so only in response to increased blood glucose levels. During fasting, Tirzepatide actually decreases insulin levels and thus helps to increase insulin sensitivity over time. It also decreases fasting levels of glucagon, which are thought to exacerbate hyperglycemia by interfering with hepatic glucose metabolism. Overall, these changes are a big part of the reason Tirzepatide has a profound effect on glucose and, ultimately, HbA1c levels.
How Does It Work?
Tirzepatide is a dual agonist of the gastric inhibitory polypeptide receptor and the glucagonlike peptide-1 receptor. Action at these receptors appears to have synergistic effects that make Tirzepatide more effective than strict GLP-1 agonists that are already approved for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. The affinity of Tirzepatide for the GIP receptor is greater than its affinity for the GLP-1 receptor.
Gastric inhibitory polypeptide, which is also referred to as the glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide, is synthesized naturally in the small intestine. This polypeptide binds to the GIP receptor to inhibit gastric acid secretion and gastrin release while stimulating insulin release. The latter is the primary function of GIP-R and is the primary reason that insulin levels increase following a meal.
Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptors are found on beta cells as well as in neurons in the brain. Like GIP-R, stimulation of GLP-1R stimulates the release of insulin. Natural agonists include glucagon and GLP1, but it has also been shown to bind nearly a dozen synthetic agonists including dulaglutide, lithium, and oxyntomodulin. Activation of GLP-1R increases both insulin synthesis and insulin release, factors that have made it a desirable target in drug development. In the brain, GLP-1R stimulation lowers appetite.
Interestingly, stimulation of GLP-1R appears to increase beta cell density in the pancreas. GLP-1R stimulation increases expression of the anti-apoptotic bcl-2 gene while reducing expression of pro-apoptotic bax and caspase-3 genes. This leads to enhanced beta cell survival and, ultimately, to increased levels of insulin.
The combination of GIPR and GLP-1R activity is what gives Tirzepatide an edge over strict GLP-1R agonists. Research shows that Tirzepatide acts identically to GIP at the GIPR, but favors cAMP production over β-arrestin recruitment when acting at the GLP-1R. These details may seem esoteric to some extent, but this difference in activity from endogenous GLP-1 appears to cause GLP-1R activation without increasing physiological internalization of the receptor. The net result is enhanced GLP-1R activity with Tarazepide compared to both endogenous GLP-1 as well as other synthetic GLP-1R agonists. These slight alterations mean that Tirzepatide drastically enhances insulin secretion, promotes feelings of satiety, and reduces inflammation in adipose tissue. These combined effects make it a highly efficacious anti-diabetes peptide.
Finally, Tirzepatide appears to alter adiponectin levels, raising overall levels of the fat-burning peptide. Increased levels of adiponectin reduce fat cell differentiation and increase energy expenditure by making mitochondria more inefficient. A low level of this peptide hormone has been implicated in diseases such as type 2 diabetes, atherosclerosis, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. It is worth noting that elevated adiponectin levels elevate insulin sensitivity, so it would appear that Tirzepatide modulates insulin sensitivity via several mechanisms.
Tirzepatide and Hunger
Research shows that Tirzepatide delays gastric emptying during the earliest phases of its administration but that the effect diminishes over time as a result of tachyphylaxis. These effects are similar to those seen with pure GLP-1R agonists, indicating that this action of Tirzepatide is almost completely controlled by its GLP-1 activity and not at all by its GIP activity. It appears that the effects of Tirzepatide on gastric emptying can be prolonged if the peptide is taken at a low dose for four weeks and then the dose is escalated. This also helps to mitigate side effects caused by the peptide and creates a veritable win-win for patients. Delayed gastric emptying can help to increase feelings of satiety and reduce hunger as well as food cravings. Combined with the effects Tirzepatide has on glucose levels, this can actually help to alter eating patterns over the long term.
Tirzepatide and Weight
As noted above, Tirzepatide use is associated with substantial weight loss over a six-month time interval. A comparison of Tirzepatide to other GLP-1 analogues, like degludoc, indicates a striking difference. Whereas Tirzepatide causes a dose-dependent decrease in weight over time, degludoc and other GLP-1R agonists cause weight gain.
It appears that the GIP agonism cause by Tirzepatide is what is responsible for the peptide’s long-term effects on weight. GIP appears to directly impact the insulin-sensitivity of adipocytes, which is likely the mechanism by which Tirzepatide impacts adiponectin levels. In short, Tirzepatide activates GIP receptors in fat cells, which then leads to an increase insulin sensitivity. This, in turn, leads to a reduction in adipose inflammation as well as an increase in adiponectin levels and the associated benefits. This isn’t the whole picture, however research shows that GIP signaling in the central nervous system regulates hypothalamic feeding centers leading to decreased food intake and improved glucose handling. This, in turn, leads to decreased body weight. Thus, it appears that Tirzepatide impacts weight via adiponectin signaling directly in adipose tissue and via CNS alterations that reduce hunger levels via GIPR signaling in the brain.
Tirzepatide and the Heart
As noted, Tirzepatide alters adiponectin levels. Low adiponectin has been associated with atherosclerosis, obesity, and heart disease while increased adiponectin levels have been associated with decrease risk of all of these things. Research in humans with type 2 diabetes has shown that Tirzepatide improves lipoprotein biomarkers, lowering levels of triglycerides, apoC-III, and a handful of other lipoproteins. Combined, these effects mean reduced risk of heart disease as a likely result of decreased adiposity. Research shows that increased adiponectin levels increase HDL levels while decreasing triglyceride levels, both of which are associated with lower risk of heart disease. The peptide hormone appears to go further though, reducing scavenger receptors in macrophages and increasing the levels of cholesterol efflux to greatly protect against atherosclerosis. Increases in adiponectin levels have been associated with improved nutrition, exercise, and the use of certain lipid-lowering medications. It appears that Tirzepatide has similar beneficial effects.
Research shows that GLP-1 is important in both the direct regulation of cardiovascular risk factors such as hypertension, dyslipidemia, and obesity as well as in the indirect regulation of risk factors like inflammation and endothelial cell dysfunction. The former effects are discussed above and below in relationship to adiponectin. The effects on inflammation and endothelial function, however, appear to be mediated more directly.
In the case of endothelial function, GLP-1 signaling has been shown to induce relaxation of blood vessels leading to decreased blood pressure and enhanced end organ perfusion. This effect appears to result from increased expression of eNOS, the enzyme that generates nitric oxide and induces vascular relaxation. Interestingly, these effects appear to be enhanced in the setting of preexisting cardiovasulcar disease and diabetes.
Of course, it is well known that inflammation is directly correlated with atherosclerosis. The details are still being worked out, but GLP-1 signaling appears to decrease inflammation via a handful of mechanisms including reduced NF-κB signaling, decreased MMP-9 activity, inhibited inflammatory cytokine synthesis, and decreases in inflammatory macrophage activity. What is more, these effects appear to last as long as three months after a single dose of a GLP-1R agonist like Tirzepatide. Tirzepatide is undergoing a clinical trial to further evaluate its medium-term effects on individuals with heart failure.
Summary
Tirzepatide is a synthetic derivative of gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP) that has simultaneous glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) functionality as well. This combination allows Tirzepatide to lower blood glucose levels, increase insulin sensitivity, boost feelings of satiety, and accelerate weight loss. Tirzepatide was developed to fight type 2 diabetes, but has additionally been shown to protect the cardiovascular system and act as a potent weight loss agent.

Adipotide (a.k.a. FTPP or proapototic peptide) kills fat cells, plain and simple, by targeting the blood supply of those cells. Interestingly, adipotide is able to discern the blood vessels in fat cells from the blood vessels throughout the rest of the body and is therefore highly selective. Research in monkeys shows that adipotide not only causes weight loss, it actually boosts insulin sensitivity and offsets some of the effects of type 2 diabetes.
Adipotide before and after
Although Adipotide has been found to be effective in weight loss it is still in the clinical stages and more testing is needed. Some side effects have been logged in trials and the main concern includes dehydration. This means it can cause small kidney lesions and if this is not treated can cause kidney failure. A lot more clinical trials on humans are required to deal with problems like this. But, thanks to those in the research industry they work tirelessly to help find new cures and treatment for all conditions and diseases. That is why companies such as Anabolica are here to serve the research trade to continue their excellent work to contribute to the medical establishment around the globe.
Will Adipotide Help You to Lose Weight?
If you want to lose weight, the peptide-like formula known as Adipotide may be exactly what you’re looking for. This peptide is classified as an experimental peptodomimetic and it was created in the USA in order to help people battle obesity. This ultra-modern weight loss treatment has been tested on rhesus monkeys. Many people believe that this peptide-like formula is the future of simple and stress-free weight loss.
Adipotide is often described as a peptide – however, it is not a peptide.
Adipotide is a peptodomimetic and it differs from a peptide in that it is made from small chains of matter (this matter is similar to protein). These chains are meant to simulate the performance of peptides. During tests, rhesus monkeys which were injected with this ultra-modern peptodomimetic decreased their overall body weight by eleven percent.
Adipotide decreased the body mass index, waist circumference and fatty deposits of lab monkeys.
How Does Adipotide Work?
Adipotide is designed for targeting specific blood vessels, supplying body fat (adipose tissue)with blood.
The process results in a shrinking on your vessels, forcing the fat cells to start feeding on these vessels. All that mechanism leads to an apoptosis, which is a form of PCD that normally occurs in multicellular organisms. Typically, there are 2 receptors where adipotide binds: prohibitin and ANXA2. These are found in your blood vessels, and they accomplish the role of supplying your white adipose tissue.
This formula must be injected and it works by killing fat cells. When fat cells die, there is a decrease in volume within subcutaneous fat. This triggers weight loss. With Adipotide, cells are killed selectively, in a programmed fashion. They die because they are deprived of vital nutrients.
This formula works by destroying blood supply which contributes to fat cell growth. The process of targeted induction (Apoptosis), which kills cells, is the primary mechanism by which Adipotide supports weight loss. This ‘peptide’ has a couple of domains, both of which function separately in order to combat obesity.
The first domain is a homing domain and it works by targeting a membrane-associated protein which is known as Prohibitin. The homing domain works on adipose vascular endothelial cell matter. The second domain is a membrane-disrupting domain, which causes cell death by stopping or inhibiting mitochondrial membrane activity within targeted cells.
By keeping some fat cells from getting the nutrition that they need in order to stay alive, via the blood stream, this peptide-like formula provides quick weight loss results. While rhesus monkeys are the only test subjects to date, this experimental formula does hope to human subjects.
Monkeys who received Adipotide daily via injections experienced rapid and sustainable weight loss results. These test subjects lost twenty-percent of stomach fat within twenty-eight days. Some monkeys lost thirty-nine percent of their overall body fat, while others lost less. When fat cells in monkeys were killed with Adipotide, they were then metabolized by the body. Monkeys were treated with the drug for twenty-eight days and then underwent a twenty-eight day recovery period. For this reason, long-term weight loss results in rhesus monkeys are not available. However, short-term results do look promising.
Adipotide Dosing Chart
Discover the Benefits of Adipotide
As a result of the laidback lifestyle of humans as well as the contemporary work modality, it is evident that the need for practising physical activity has significantly reduced, this causes many people to become obese and overweight.
Helps you to reduce your weight in just a few months. The process results in the loss of a certain amount of abdominal fat mass.
Adipotide contains potentiating positive effects on insulin sensitivity as it improves it drastically. It’s reflected in using insulin efficiently on your body, which has been proven to have a positive effect on decreasing on elevated levels of blood glucose.
Adipotide maintains your health, and it allows energy use from the chemical nutrients your body is receiving.
It regulates water by removing excess water and retaining it at the appropriate time.
It processes hormones, which is useful in the regulation of BP (blood pressure).
It balances the minerals in your body, which allows the correct functionality of your body.
This formula is designed to promote weight loss and this benefit has been confirmed via pre-clinical studies. As well, it offers hope to diabetics, as studies show that it reduces side effects of diabetic health conditions. Adipotide features an innovative mechanism when compared to other therapeutics which are available in the marketplace (or which are undergoing clinical trials).
Since Adipotide works without triggering psychological symptoms, it doesn’t cause modulation of neurotransmitter matter. As well, it doesn’t have an amphetamine-type mechanism. Men and women who utilize Adipotide may therefore access benefits without a high risk of gastrointestinal side effects.
Bodybuilders Are Interested in Adipotide
Bodybuilders typically have a lot of experience with peptides and they have particular interest in this one. They know from experience that peptides are powerful formulas which allow them to change their bodies with a mind to accessing an assortment of results, from faster muscle mass growth to superior fat-burning power to optimal muscle recovery.
As well, peptides may help bodybuilders to avoid the negative side effects of anabolic steroid cycles. For this reason, many bodybuilders are interested in trying out this peptide-like formula as soon as they can. Some have already experimented with synthed versions of the formula, with mixed results. During the cutting phase of bodybuilding, when men and women need to reduce body fat without losing muscle, a formula such as Adipotide could provide practical benefits.
Hexarelin Acetate, also alternatively known as examorelin, is a small synthetic peptide that belongs to the growth hormone secretagogue class (GHS).
It is composed of just six amino acids. The chemical sequence of this growth hormone-releasing peptide (GHRP) is His-D-2-methyl-Trp-Ala-Trp-D-Phe-Lys-NH2. Being highly compact in structure makes it more stable as well as effective in terms of its functioning in the body.
The reported benefits of Hexarelin are substantial:
Stimulates Muscle Growth.
Rapid Weight Loss.
Improves Strength & Flexibility.
Faster Recovery.
Improves Sleep & Overall Well-Being.
How Does It Work
The primary function of hexarelin is to trigger the release of growth hormone from the anterior pituitary gland. Hexarelin follows multiple courses of action to achieve this purpose.
Hexarelin mimics the action of a naturally occurring hormone called ghrelin. Ghrelin is mainly synthesized in the stomach, and it travels via the bloodstream to bind with the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHS-R1a) located in the hippocampus.
This subsequent binding stimulates a wide array of physiological pathways such as the release of growth hormone (GH), protecting cardiomyocytes, regulating body weight, and development of the musculoskeletal system.
Hexarelin also binds with growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHS-R1a) similar to ghrelin to initiate a phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (PKC) signaling pathway. This leads to the amplified release of growth hormone (GH) due to the coordinated action of the hypothalamus as well as the pituitary gland.
Hexarelin is also known to limit the release of somatostatin, also sometimes referred to as growth hormone-inhibiting hormone (GHIH). This leads to higher serum levels of growth hormone (GH).
The availability of growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHS-R1a) in the peripheral organs like the heart, bones, adrenal gland, and digestive tract means that hexarelin can also trigger a localized effect. Particularly, the binding of hexarelin with cardiac receptors called CD36 is a growing area of research.
Hexarelin stimulates other endocrine pathways such as ACTH to cause the release of prolactin as well as cortisol.

Benefits Of Hexarelin
As a growth hormone-releasing peptide (GHRP), hexarelin ensures an organic growth hormone release (GH).
It stimulates the growth of new muscle fibers. This leads to the development of lean muscle mass by bulking up muscles as well as enhancing body strength.
As hexarelin binds to the CD36 receptors located on blood cells, it greatly improves cardiovascular functioning by maintaining normal cardiac parameters such as left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), cardiac output, and stroke volume, and decreasing the peripheral resistance in the blood vessels.
This helps athletes meet the physical realms needed to boost their overall performance.
Hexarelin-induced release of growth hormone (GH) also burns down body fat, thereby causing weight loss.
This peptide improves overall skeletal health. This is done by making joints more flexible and making tendons, joints, and ligaments grow healthy. Hexarelin stimulates the growth of new muscle fibers. This leads to the growth of lean muscle mass by bulking up muscles as well as enhancing body strength.
This musculoskeletal growth makes the individual more resistant to injuries.
The optimal release of growth hormone due to hexarelin causes growth and proliferation around wounds and injuries so that the recovery process is quick yet effective.
Besides, it is also hypothesized to improve sleep quality to considerable levels by setting up natural sleep rhythms.
Usage in Bodybuilding
Hexarelin, like the majority of other peptides, works by promoting natural human growth hormone synthesis and release. This leads to more amino acid recruitment in the muscle fibers and increased protein synthesis, thus helping you gain muscle mass and strength.
For this purpose, the studied dose is 200-300 mcg/day. It is best to avoid eating before and after 1 hr of the peptide administration.
Is It Legal?
Check the laws of your country to determine if Hexarelin is legal or not in your area!
Who Should Use It?
Owing to the tremendous effects observed in cardiovascular health, anybody with a history of cardiovascular diseases such as myocardial infarctions and arrhythmias can take Hexarelin. This is because hexarelin is seen to minimize fibrous accumulation.
Bodybuilders aiming to build up muscles can also take Hexarelin. Anyone wishing to have a quicker recovery process can also take it.
Athletes wishing to boost their performance in their respective games can consider hexarelin usage after seeing all the benefits.
How To Use
Just like most other peptides, hexarelin is also available as a dry powder in the vial (a glass container). Once you have purchased hexarelin, you need to mix it with bacteriostatic water, depending on your dosage guidelines.
You need to inject it subcutaneously, inserting the needle just under the skin and not in the muscle. Generally, the abdominal area is seen as an ideal place to inject it. Subcutaneous injection of hexarelin is seen to achieve maximum effects on the user.
If you are afraid of needles, you can take hexarelin orally as well, with the surety of experiencing similar benefits as a subcutaneous injection.
Forms Of Hexarelin
Hormonal therapies are usually more effective in injectable forms. So, I would personally recommend taking the injectable form.
When you make a purchase, you will get a vial in which there will be hexarelin powder. The powder, once mixed with the sterile water, will give you the injectable ready form.
Surprisingly, hexarelin tablets are also available in some areas. This makes it more user-friendly as a wide variety of people can consume hexarelin. But we still highly recommend the injectable form as we know it works better.
General Dosage Guide
Being illegal in many areas means that there exist no set guidelines for the users but considering all the medical research done so far, an ideal dosage is devised.
200mcg-300mcg is advised to be the daily intake of an individual. The optimal results are often seen in people who administer hexarelin subcutaneously 2-3 times a day, with each dose comprising approximately 100 mcg.
Small administrations are often advised because this stimulates the release of growth hormone (GH) at more frequent intervals. Hence, this sets up a natural timer within a short period.
If you are taking hexarelin orally, you can take two tablets in a day, with each around 200mcg.
One of the important interpretations from existing research is that a higher dosage doesn’t seem to impact you significantly.
Cycling
To see optimal results, avoid eating anything before and after 1 hour of administration.
It is generally consumed for straight 12 to 16 weeks. Prominent benefits such as muscle building, fat loss, and quick recoveries are usually achieved during this period.
Once one cycle is complete, take a break of 25 to 30 days. You may start your new cycle for approximately 3 months to maintain the physical changes that the peptide helped you to achieve.
How To Stack
There are many possibilities for stacking Hexarelin with other substances for optinal performance and results.
The primary function of Hex is to trigger the release of growth hormone from the anterior pituitary gland. It follows multiple courses of action to achieve this purpose.
It mimics the action of a naturally occurring hormone called ghrelin. Ghrelin is mainly synthesized in the stomach, and it travels via the bloodstream to bind with the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHS-R1a) located in the hippocampus.
This subsequent binding stimulates a wide array of physiological pathways such as the release of growth hormone (GH), protecting cardiomyocytes, regulating body weight, and development of the musculoskeletal system.
It also binds with the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHS-R1a) similar to ghrelin to initiate a phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (PKC) signaling pathway. This leads to the amplified release of growth hormone (GH) due to the coordinated action of the hypothalamus as well as the pituitary gland.
It is also known to limit the release of somatostatin, also sometimes referred to as growth hormone-inhibiting hormone (GHIH). This leads to higher serum levels of growth hormone (GH).
It has been determined in our research that a multi-approach method is best when seeking hair growth and restoration. There are three separate substances that have proven ideal for this purpose.Those 3 main restorative products are:
GHK-Cu
BPC-157
REGAINE
Each one of the above products, and a better more in depth description of them can be found on this page.
Allow us to generally explain more about them here…
GHK-Cu
Science has shown GHK-Cu to have many beneficial effects for the skin from smoothing rough skin and reducing fine lines and wrinkles, to repairing protective skin barriers, and tightening loose skin. But they also have been shown to help improve and promote hair growth and slow hair loss. GHK-Cu is what is known as a copper peptide.
Copper peptides not only play a significant role in regenerating new hair growth, but they can also make your existing hair look and feel thicker by increasing the follicle size. The hair will have a thicker and fuller appearance. As referenced, this molecule has anti-inflammatory properties.
Over time, the daily use of collagen peptides supports hair regrowth and increases the proliferation of dermal papilla cells, which are specialized skin cells important to hair growth.
BPC-157
In relation to hair growth, BPC-157 holds promise due to its potential to stimulate blood flow. Since reduced blood flow can lead to shrinking and eventual loss of hair follicles, the theory suggests that improving blood circulation may rejuvenate or enlarge hair follicle size and promote hair growth.
Connective tissue structure relies on collagen. By increasing collagen formation, BPC-157 promotes better connective tissue health. BPC-157 possesses a potent angiogenic factor. That implies it can aid in the development of new blood vessels which aide in the new growth, and re-growth of hair.
REGAINE
Regaine is a 5% Minoxidil product (most effective made) which has significant backing by clinical studies as a highly effective hair growth & restoration treatment. And while there are some 10% products being made, research suggests this isn’t better. In the only comparison of Minoxidil 10% and Minoxidil 5% to date, researchers found that Minoxidil 5% was moderately superior to Minoxidil 10% for stimulating hair regrowth in men with male pattern baldness. Minoxidil is a very safe, convenient, and an effective hair growth treatment for those suffering with male or female androgenetic alopecia.
Many men report an increase in hair growth and density after using minoxidil for several months.
And that effectiveness isn’t altered by proximity to your hairline, because the hair follicles in your hairline aren’t significantly different from the hair follicles on your scalp or crown.
Conclusion
Using the above protocol has a myriad of other healthful benefits… too many to list here… but you should understand that using the above 3-tiered approach has proven to be quite effective over time for hair growth and restoration. Nice thing is, these products can pretty much be used by anyone.
Read on… almost done!
Regaine is topical, which means you simply massage a little of the liquid onto your head and allow to remain (preferably over night) and simply wash away until next day’s application.
GHK-Cu is a peptide. often peptides are injected much as insulin is… using a very small insulin syringe. But this is not necessary! See, the GHK-Cu molecules are small enough to pass the gut barrier… so, you can actually just take it orally if you do not like needles!
BPC-157 is the same deal. You can either take it in the form of an injection similar to GHK-Cu, or you can simply take it orally.
So, there you have it. There is nothing standing in the way of you utilizing this effective approach to growing and / or restoring your hair. No matter if you care for injections or not… this hair growth and restoration treatment can be used by pretty much everyone… and this includes females!
Just stick with it… results don’t happen over night. But for those who remain consistent and don’t give up, this treatment is a very promising approach to a fuller, thicker head of hair!
