Description:
GHRP-6 is a potent stimulator of natural release. GHRP-6 is a Hexa-peptide that promotes food intake by stimulating hunger and helps increase energy metabolism. Releasing Peptides, similar to GHRP-6, are most commonly used for treatment of (GH) deficiencies, eating disorders, obesity, etc. Research has shown that use of these Peptides increases lean muscle mass, strength, stamina and decreases body fat.
Application:
GHRPs are not simply surrogates of GHRH, instead GHRP-6 is an artificial activator of a separate newly discovered receptor called Secretagogue Receptor (GHS-R). Soon Ghrelin was discovered, the endogenous ligand that binds to the GHS-R. Both Ghrelin and all the synthetic compounds such as GHRP-6 were termed "Secretagogues" (GHSs). One side effect of GHRP-6 is a significant increase in appetite due to stimulating the release of Ghrelin, a peptide that is released naturally in the lining of the stomach that increases hunger and gastric emptying. Also, GHRP-6 causes stimulation of the anterior pituitary gland which causes an increase in release. The increased amounts of can cause the liver to secrete the , which improves the animal body's ability to burn fat and build muscle. Since GHRP-6 acts directly on the feedback loop which signals the inhibition release, GHRP-6 can re-stimulate the production Hormone.
