GHRP-6 (10 mg) – Research Peptide for Increasing Hunger (Ghrelin)

Description

Overview

GHRP-6 (Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide-6) is a synthetic hexapeptide and member of the growth hormone secretagogue (GHS) class, studied for its ability to stimulate endogenous growth hormone release via the ghrelin (GHS-R1a) receptor. Unlike exogenous growth hormone, GHRP-6 promotes a natural, pulsatile increase in GH secretion, making it a valuable compound in research focused on growth hormone physiology, recovery, and metabolic regulation.

Research shows GHRP-6 reliably elevates circulating growth hormone and downstream IGF-1 levels. It is also known for its strong appetite-stimulating properties, which has led to its use in studies related to energy balance, cachexia, and nutrient utilization. These combined effects make GHRP-6 a versatile tool in endocrine and metabolic research.
